A valve seat is installed on the outer side of the valve ball. A graphite ring is provided at the top of the valve seat, and a pressure ring is installed on the outer side of the valve seat. A pressure ring is fixed on one side of the pressure ring.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the first mounting bolt extends through one side of the second valve body into the interior of the first valve body. The outer sides of the first mounting bolts inside the first and second valve bodies are provided with matching internal threads. The first mounting bolts are distributed at equal intervals inside the first and second valve bodies. The first and second valve bodies are fixedly connected by the first mounting bolts and the first fixing nut.

[0008] Preferably, the sealing structure includes a mounting base, a second mounting bolt, a second fixing nut, a rotating block, a stuffing box, a gland, sealing packing, a first sealing gasket, a first sealing ring, a second sealing gasket, and fixing bolts. The mounting base is installed on the top of the sealing seat. The second mounting bolts are evenly installed inside the mounting base, and the second fixing nut is installed on the outside of the second mounting bolts. The rotating block is installed on the top of the mounting base. A stuffing box is provided inside the sealing seat. A gland is provided on the top of the stuffing box. Sealing packing is provided at the bottom of the gland inside the stuffing box. A first sealing gasket is provided at the bottom of the stuffing box. A first sealing ring and a second sealing gasket are distributed at the bottom of the sealing seat inside the first valve body. Fixing bolts are evenly installed on the top of the sealing seat.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom end of the second mounting bolt extends through the bottom end of the sealing seat into the interior of the sealing seat and forms a threaded connection with the interior of the sealing seat. The mounting seat and the sealing seat are fixedly connected by the second mounting bolt and the second fixing nut.

[0010] Preferably, the sealing seat is fixedly connected to the first valve body by fixing bolts, and the sealing seat and the first valve body are sealed together by a first sealing ring and a second sealing gasket.

[0011] Preferably, the outer side of the valve ball is coated with a tungsten carbide coating, the wear-resistant bushing is an aluminum alloy-based wear-resistant bushing, and the upper valve stem is rotatably connected inside the wear-resistant bushing.

At the same time, by setting a wear-resistant bushing, the problem of ordinary bushings peeling off in oxygen conditions, which could lead to serious fires, is avoided. The generation of fine particles is greatly reduced, thereby ensuring the safety of the valve and adjacent pipelines and equipment.

[0014] By incorporating a sealing structure, the mounting seat and sealing seat are fixedly connected using a second mounting bolt and a second fixing nut. This allows the mounting seat to press the gland tightly, ensuring that the sealing packing inside the stuffing box does not leak out. This prevents leakage caused by a loose gland or loose sealing packing, guaranteeing the long-term effective sealing of the sealing packing. Furthermore, the first sealing gasket further seals the sealing packing, resulting in a better sealing effect. Simultaneously, the first sealing ring and the second sealing gasket effectively seal the sealing seat and the first valve body, preventing the medium from leaking out from the connection between the sealing seat and the first valve body when the rotating block drives the upper valve stem to rotate, thus achieving a good sealing effect.

[0015] By incorporating a wear-resistant structure and applying a special wear-resistant hardening coating (actually tungsten carbide coating) to the outer side of the valve ball, which boasts high hardness, wear resistance, and high-temperature resistance, the valve ball's long service life in oxygen conditions is ensured. Simultaneously, a wear-resistant bushing is installed between the upper valve stem and the valve stem seat. This aluminum alloy-based wear-resistant bushing offers excellent wear resistance, high strength, and corrosion resistance, preventing the problem of ordinary bushings peeling off in oxygen conditions and causing serious fires. Furthermore, as the valve ball rotates, the pressure ring applies pressure to the valve seat, with the preload force provided by the pressure ring (actually a helical spring). This ensures a constant thrust on the valve seat, guaranteeing its sealing performance. Attached Figure Description

One end of each first mounting bolt 3 extends through one side of the second valve body 2 into the interior of the first valve body 1. Matching internal threads are provided on the outer sides of the first mounting bolts 3 inside both the first and second valve bodies 1 and 2. The first mounting bolts 3 are evenly distributed inside both the first and second valve bodies 1 and 2. A first fixing nut 4 is installed on the outer side of each first mounting bolt 3. The first valve body 1 and the second valve body 2 are fixedly connected by the first mounting bolts 3 and the first fixing nut 4. A sealing seat 5 is installed on the top side of the first valve body 1. A sealing structure 6 is installed inside the sealing seat 5. The sealing structure 6 includes a mounting base 601, a second mounting bolt 602, a second fixing nut 603, a rotating block 604, a stuffing box 605, a gland 606, sealing packing 607, a first sealing gasket 608, a first sealing ring 609, a second sealing gasket 610, and a fixing bolt 611. The mounting base 601 is installed on the top of the sealing seat 5.

The sealing seat 5 is fixedly connected to the first valve body 1 by the fixing bolt 611. The sealing seat 5 and the first valve body 1 are sealed together by the first sealing ring 609 and the second sealing gasket 610.

[0025] By fixing the mounting base 601 and the sealing seat 5 together with the second mounting bolt 602 and the second fixing nut 603, the mounting base 601 presses the gland 606 tightly, thereby ensuring that the sealing packing 607 inside the stuffing box 605 will not leak out.

Furthermore, by setting the first sealing gasket 608, the sealing packing 607 is further sealed, resulting in a better sealing effect. At the same time, by setting the first sealing ring 609 and the second sealing gasket 610, the sealing seat 5 and the first valve body 1 are effectively sealed, thereby preventing the medium from leaking out from the connection between the sealing seat 5 and the first valve body 1 when the rotating block 604 drives the upper valve stem 702 to rotate, thus achieving a good sealing effect.

A valve seat 708 is installed on the outside of the valve ball 701, and a graphite ring 709 is provided at the top of the valve seat 708. A pressure ring 710 is installed on the outside of the valve seat 708, and a pressure ring 711 is fixed on one side of the pressure ring 710. The outside of the valve ball 701 is coated with a tungsten carbide coating. The wear-resistant bushing 704 is an aluminum alloy-based wear-resistant bushing. The upper valve stem 702 is rotatably connected inside the wear-resistant bushing 704. The upper valve stem 702 and the first valve body 1 are sealed together by the second sealing ring 706 and the third sealing gasket 707.

Meanwhile, when the valve ball 701 rotates, the pressure ring 711 applies pressure to the pressure ring 710, which acts on the valve seat 708. The preload of the valve seat 708 is provided by the pressure ring 711, which is actually a helical spring, thus providing a constant thrust to the valve seat 708, thereby ensuring the sealing performance of the valve seat 708.
