Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of valve, concretely is to unload ash valve. BACKGROUND

[0002] The unload ash valve is a kind of valve specially used to control and regulate dry powder, granular material flow, is widely used in cement, electric power, metallurgy, chemical industry, environmental protection and other industries, especially suitable for blast furnace coal powder injection, dust containing solid powder pipeline system and other working conditions, it controls valve core by rotating or sliding to realize the opening and closing of material passage.

[0003] There are many kinds of unload ash valves, wherein the unload ash ball valve refers to the valve with spherical valve core, the spherical valve core is provided with through hole in the middle, the orientation of through hole is changed by rotating spherical valve core to realize the connection and cut-off of pipeline at both ends of valve, with good sealing, high safety degree, such as prior art "pneumatic unload ash ball valve"(publication number: CN204755990U).But the prior art still has the following technical problems:

[0004] Since the flow medium in unload ash valve is usually ash dust of powder or granular material, ash dust will cause valve core wear when contacting valve core, and friction wear will also occur when valve core contacts valve seat, the wear of prior art valve is more serious in long-term use, finally leading to valve sealing, causing valve life to decrease;At the same time, ash dust is also easy to accumulate in the gap between valve body and valve core, and the more the ash dust is accumulated, the more the ash dust is pressed, finally leading to valve jamming or damage, seriously shortening the service life of valve. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0005] The utility model provides unload ash valve, can solve the problem of prior art valve, which is prone to cause sealing, valve jamming, and causes valve life to decrease.

[0006] The application provides the following technical scheme: unload ash valve, including valve body, valve seat fixed in valve body, upper valve rod and lower valve rod rotationally connected in the inside of valve body, and spherical valve core fixed between upper valve rod and lower valve rod;

[0007] The inner wall surface of the valve body is provided with a rubber layer;The sealing surface of the valve core and the valve seat is provided with an alloy layer;

[0008] The upper and lower sides of the valve core are respectively provided with square grooves, and the upper valve rod and the lower valve rod are located in the square grooves, and the upper valve rod, the lower valve rod and the square grooves all have gaps.

[0009] Beneficial effects:

[0010] 1. Preventing the accumulation of ash dust inside the valve body, avoiding the valve core from being stuck, and prolonging the service life of the valve. The rubber layer on the inner wall of the valve body is elastic and not easy to attach dust, so that in the process of repeated opening and closing of the valve, the dust is not easy to be pressed and adhered on the inner wall of the valve body, but the dust will be loosened due to the action of the valve core combined with the resilience of the rubber layer, ensuring that the ash dust can be smoothly discharged, avoiding the accumulation of ash dust, thereby preventing the valve from being stuck and prolonging the service life of the valve.

[0011] 2. Reducing the friction loss between the valve core and the valve seat, ensuring the sealing performance and further prolonging the service life. The gap between the upper valve rod, the lower valve rod and the square groove of the valve core allows the valve core to axially displace and float along the ash dust conveying direction in the valve body, and further allows the gap between the valve core and the valve seat, so that the friction loss between the valve core and the valve seat is reduced when the valve core rotates, and when the valve is in the closed state, the ash dust in the valve inlet pushes the valve core, due to the gap, the valve core is pressed on the valve seat to block the valve outlet end to achieve sealing, thereby reducing the wear caused by the mutual rotation of the valve core and the valve seat, while ensuring the sealing performance of the valve and prolonging the service life of the valve core.

[0012] Further, the material of the rubber layer is any one of nitrile rubber, polytetrafluoroethylene, polytrifluorochloroethylene and polyethylene propylene.

[0013] Beneficial effect: The rubber layer has good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, making the valve have both the strength of metal and the corrosion resistance, which can prolong the service life of the valve body.

[0014] Further, the alloy layer material of the sealing surface of the valve seat and the valve core is a special alloy with high molybdenum content.

[0015] Beneficial effect: Since the valve core and the valve seat need to be in contact repeatedly during the opening and closing of the valve, the wear-resistant alloy layer on the contact surface can greatly improve the erosion resistance of the sealing surface and prolong the service life of the valve.

[0016] Further, the part of the upper valve rod and the lower valve rod extending into the valve core is a square head structure.

[0017] Beneficial effect: The square head structure facilitates the rotation of the valve rod and the valve core, and facilitates the disassembly, installation and maintenance of the valve rod and the valve core.

[0018] Further, a sealing ring is installed between the rod part of the upper valve rod and the valve body.

[0019] Beneficial effect: The sealing ring can prevent the ash dust in the valve body from leaking from the rotating gap between the valve rod and the valve body, and improve the sealing performance of the valve body.

[0020] Furthermore, the valve body is also provided with a drive mechanism, which includes a mounting bracket fixed on the valve body, a hydraulic cylinder pivotally connected to the mounting bracket, and a swing arm connected between the hydraulic cylinder and the upper valve stem.

[0021] Beneficial effects: The hydraulic cylinder controls the upper valve stem to rotate 90 degrees through the swing arm, thereby driving the valve core to rotate in the valve body, realizing the automatic opening or closing of the valve.

[0022] Furthermore, the hydraulic cylinder is fixed with a locking ring, the outer periphery of which is pivotally connected to the mounting bracket.

[0023] Beneficial effects: The locking ring is used to fix the hydraulic cylinder, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the hydraulic cylinder. Since the hydraulic cylinder needs to push the swing arm to swing, the locking ring is pivotally connected to the mounting bracket, which allows the hydraulic cylinder to adjust its position according to the movement of the swing arm and prevents the hydraulic cylinder from jamming when it moves.
