Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ball valves, and more particularly to a rubber sealing structure of a ball valve. Background Art
[0002] A ball valve is a valve whose opening and closing member is a sphere. The sphere rotates around the centerline of the valve body, opening and closing the valve passage. When the sphere's through hole aligns with the pipe, the valve opens, allowing fluid to flow smoothly. When the sphere's through hole is perpendicular to the pipe, the valve closes, preventing fluid flow.
[0003] The two end passages of a ball valve require rubber seals to connect to the valve ball. Existing methods are relatively simple, often requiring direct plug-in installation. This installation method makes it difficult for the seal to effectively adhere to the outer surface of the valve ball, resulting in a poor sealing effect. Furthermore, external joint seals are difficult to adjust adaptively, leading to unstable sealing at the joint. In light of this, we propose a rubber seal structure for a ball valve. Utility Model Content

[0006] During installation, the sealing assembly is inserted into the assembly port and the valve body housing, and then the connecting piece is butted against the opening of the valve body housing and fixed by bolts. At this time, the butt joint is butted against the inner channel of the sealing assembly. When the connecting piece squeezes the outer side of the sealing assembly, the sealing assembly squeezes the spring assembly. The telescopic rod of the spring assembly and the spring compression make the inner sealing ring at the inner end of the sealing assembly fit with the valve ball. At the same time, the outer sealing ring fits against the rear side of the connecting piece. The spring assembly buffers the sealing assembly to an appropriate fitting position, ensuring that both the outer sealing ring and the inner sealing ring fit with the corresponding connection points to ensure sealing performance. The inner sealing ring is installed on the connecting ring, which is plugged into the rear end of the built-in tube. The locking rod is inserted from the lower initial end of the connecting groove, and then the connecting ring is rotated to rotate the locking rod from the initial end into the rear end of the connecting groove. At the same time, the outer notch of the locking rod is clamped with the clamping block at the rear end to achieve locking of the connecting ring. The outer sealing ring is pressed down and clamped into the notch at the front end of the built-in tube. Through a detachable assembly method, the spring assembly is cooperated with the sealing assembly to pop out outward, which facilitates the replacement of aging rubber seals and reduces maintenance difficulty.
[0007] Preferably, the assembly opening is designed in a stepped manner, and a ring array of receiving holes is provided on the stepped surface, and a spring-pressing component is provided in the receiving holes.
[0008] Preferably, the elastic pressure component is composed of a telescopic rod and a spring, and the outer end of the elastic pressure component is in contact with the inner end surface of the inner tube.

[0011] Preferably, an inner sealing ring is provided at the outer end of the connecting ring, and the inner sealing ring fits against the side surface of the valve ball. A locking rod is provided in an annular array at the inner end of the connecting ring, and the locking rod is inserted into the corresponding connecting groove.
[0012] Preferably, the connecting groove is divided into an initial end and a tail end, a clamping block is provided in the tail end, and a clamping groove is provided at the outer end of the locking rod. After the locking rod rotates to the tail end, the clamping block docks with the clamping groove.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0014] 1. The utility model designs a sealing component, which is inserted into the assembly port and the valve body shell, and then the connecting piece is docked with the opening of the valve body shell and fixed with bolts. At this time, the docking pipe docks the inner channel of the sealing component. When the connecting piece squeezes the outside of the sealing component, the sealing component squeezes the spring-pressing component. The telescopic rod and the spring of the spring-pressing component are compressed, so that the inner sealing ring at the inner end of the sealing component fits with the valve ball, and the outer sealing ring fits with the rear side of the connecting piece. The spring-pressing component is used for buffering to make the sealing component in an appropriate fitting position, ensuring that the outer sealing ring and the inner sealing ring are both fitted with the corresponding connection points to ensure sealing performance.
[0015] 2. The utility model also designs a built-in cylinder, and the inner sealing ring is installed on the connecting ring. The connecting ring is plugged into the rear end of the built-in cylinder, and the locking rod is inserted from the initial end of the lower side of the connecting groove. Then, the connecting ring is rotated to make the locking rod move from the initial end to the end end of the connecting groove. At the same time, the outer end notch of the locking rod is clamped with the clamping block at the end end to achieve the locking of the connecting ring. The outer sealing ring is pressed down and clamped in the notch at the front end of the built-in cylinder. Through a detachable assembly method, the sealing assembly is ejected outward in conjunction with the spring-pressing assembly, which facilitates the replacement of aging rubber seals and reduces the difficulty of maintenance.
