[0017] Fig. 3 is an enlarged structural schematic view of area A of the flexible sealing ring. Figure 3 Specific implementation Figure 2 The utility model will be further described below in combination with the drawings.

[0018] The utility model will be further described below in combination with the drawings.

[0019] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 ​As shown, a valve plate sealing assembly of a flange butterfly valve includes a valve plate 3 that is rotatably mounted in a valve body 2 via a valve stem 1. The inlet and outlet of the valve body 2 are provided with flanges, and the valve plate 3 is sealed with a valve seat 4 in the valve body 2. A flexible sealing ring 5 is coaxially provided on the surface of the valve plate 3 near the edge of the plate body, and the flexible sealing ring 5 can expand and contract. When the valve plate 3 rotates to the valve-open position, the flexible sealing ring 5 contracts and retracts inwardly within the range enclosed by the edge contour of the valve plate 3. When the valve plate 3 rotates to the valve-closed position, the flexible sealing ring 5 expands and expands outwardly to tightly fit the valve seat 4, so that the valve plate 3 and the flexible sealing ring 5 form an axial double sealing structure. The utility model provides a flexible sealing ring 5 coaxially on the valve plate 3. In the valve-closed state, the flexible sealing ring 5 can expand and expand outwardly to form an axial double sealing structure with the valve plate 3, thereby improving the sealing performance, avoiding leakage, and ensuring the accuracy of flow control. In addition, in the valve-closed state, the flexible sealing ring 5 can contract and retract, reducing the flow resistance effect on the fluid medium transmission.

[0020] More specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the flexible sealing ring 5 is arranged on the back of the valve plate 3, and the flexible sealing ring 5 is a hollow flexible body structure; the valve plate 3 is provided with a through hole 30 parallel to the axis of the valve plate 3, and the flexible sealing ring 5 on the back of the valve plate 3 is connected to the front area of ​​the valve plate 3 through the through hole 30; when the valve plate 3 rotates to the valve closing position, the fluid medium located in the front area of ​​the valve plate 3 enters the flexible sealing ring 5 through the through hole 30, causing the flexible sealing ring 5 to expand and deform due to the entry of the fluid medium. In the valve closing state, the front area of ​​the valve plate 3 is in a positive pressure state due to the presence of the fluid medium. Based on the positive pressure working condition, the fluid medium is filled into the flexible sealing ring 5 through the through hole 30, causing the flexible sealing ring 5 to expand and deform until it fits the valve seat 4, thereby achieving sealing. The expansion and deformation of the flexible sealing ring 5 adopts the positive pressure fluid environment of the front area of ​​the valve plate 3, without the need for an additional power mechanism, and has a simpler structure and lower cost.

[0021] like Figure 3 As shown, the flexible sealing ring 5 has an interface 50 on the side facing the valve plate 3 , and the interface 50 is connected to the through hole 30 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0022] The present invention also includes a baffle 6 coaxially arranged on the back side of the valve plate 3, and the baffle 6 and the valve plate 3 are limited to form an annular cavity 7 with an opening on the outside, and the flexible sealing ring 5 is located in the annular cavity 7; when the flexible sealing ring 5 undergoes structural deformation, the deformation and extension are guided by the annular cavity 7, so that the flexible sealing ring 5 expands or contracts in the radial direction, thereby meeting the requirement that the flexible sealing ring 5 can fit the valve seat 4 when expanded.

[0023] In the present invention, as a preference, the flexible sealing ring 5 is a hollow annular rubber sealing ring.

[0024] As Figure 3 shown, the back surface of the valve plate 3 is hingedly connected with a mounting member 8, and the baffle plate 6 is fixedly connected relative to the valve plate 3 through the mounting member 8, and the mounting member 8 is preferably a screw.

[0025] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, and it should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the principles of the present application, can make a number of improvements and refinements, these improvements and refinements should also be considered within the scope of the present application.
