TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to valve technical field, concretely relates to a gate valve with flexible sheath. BACKGROUND
[0002] The gate valve is a gate board, and the movement direction of the gate board is perpendicular to the fluid direction. The gate valve can only be fully opened and closed, and cannot be adjusted and throttled. The gate valve is sealed by the contact between the valve seat and the gate board, and a metal material is usually built up on the sealing surface to increase the wear resistance.
[0003] The rising stem gate valve is mainly used in industrial pipeline systems and is suitable for most scenes. The valve stem nut is lifted when the valve is opened and closed, so the movement of the valve stem can be seen. The advantage is that the medium does not contact the valve stem thread, which makes it perform well in environments that need to be frequently operated. The rising stem gate valve is suitable for large-diameter or situations where the installation space is limited. Since the valve stem only rotates when the valve is opened and closed and does not lift, it is usually used in environments that are not frequently opened and closed and have limited installation space. The medium of the rising stem gate valve will contact the valve stem thread, which is suitable for use in situations that require less maintenance.
[0004] In order to facilitate the observation of the opening and closing state of the valve, the traditional rising stem gate valve needs to expose the valve stem externally. However, the exposed screw rod cannot be protected, so that the long-term exposed valve stem is easily affected by external media and corroded or rusted, which can easily cause damage to the thread surface of the valve stem and affect the normal use of the valve stem.

[0029] A sealing member is arranged between the lifting rod 9 and the protection column 4 and used for improving the sealing performance between the lifting rod 9 and the sliding opening 8.
[0030] A sealing frame 10 is arranged on the valve body 1 and located at an outer side of the valve rod 2, the sealing frame 10 is located below the rotating hand wheel 3, and an auxiliary sealing sleeve 11 is arranged on the valve body 1 and located in the sealing frame 10.
[0031] The auxiliary sealing sleeve 11 is a flexible sealing sleeve.
[0032] The upper and lower ends of the auxiliary sealing sleeve 11 are fixed to the upper and lower ends of the sealing frame 10, respectively. The flexible sealing sleeve is sleeved on a side of the valve rod 2 in a sheet-shaped flexible material and is rolled into a tubular shape, then the connected end rolled into the tubular shape is connected by means of adhesive or glue or hot melting, and the upper and lower ends are fixed to the upper and lower ends of the sealing frame 10 by means of adhesive or glue.
