[0022] In the embodiment, valve plate assembly 3 includes two sealing valve plates 31 and middle push plate 32, the top of middle push plate 32 is equipped with top plate 33, the side of two sealing valve plates 31 at opening side is equipped with sealing ring 13, the side of two sealing valve plates 31 at opening side is equipped with sealing ring 13, sealing valve plate 31 is movably inserted in insertion slot 6, the telescopic end of cylinder 4 is connected with top, two sealing valve plates 31 are arranged on the two sides of middle push plate 32 respectively, the middle part of middle push plate 32 is provided with through hole 34, a plurality of connecting bolts 35 are arranged on the opposite surfaces of two sealing valve plates 31 in staggered mode, connecting piece 36 is arranged in the both ends of middle push plate 32 and through hole 34, connecting hole 37 is provided in the four corners of connecting piece 36, connecting bolt 35 is inserted and arranged in connecting hole 37 and the end head is threadedly connected with nut 38, adjusting ball 11 is arranged on the two sides of middle push plate 32 and drives two sealing valve plates 31 to move back.

[0023] Specifically, top plate 33 is driven to lift by cylinder 4, and then middle push plate 32 will lift along with cylinder 4, and two sealing valve plates 31 also lift along with the action of connecting piece 36 in the middle of through hole 34, when two sealing valve plates 31 descend to the bottom in insertion slot 6, cylinder 4 continuously drives middle push plate 32 to descend, and two sealing valve plates 31 move back under the action of adjusting ball 11, connecting bolt 35 and connecting hole 37, and then sealing valve plate 31 drives sealing ring 13 to tightly adhere to the inner wall of valve body 1, so as to seal the opening.

[0024] In the embodiment, the two sealing valve plates 31 are provided with a plurality of ball grooves 12 on the opposite sides, and the adjusting balls 11 are arranged in the ball grooves 12.

[0025] Specifically, since the diameter and depth of the ball groove 12 gradually decrease from top to bottom, when the middle push plate 32 continuously descends, the adjusting balls 11 will move to the bottom of the ball groove 12, and then the adjusting balls 11 will push the sealing valve plate 31 to move outward, so that the sealing valve plate 31 drives the sealing ring 13 to tightly adhere to the inner wall of the valve body 1 and seal the opening.

[0026] In the embodiment, the bottom end of the middle push plate 32 is provided with a first protective strip 14.

[0027] Specifically, the first protective strip 14 can protect the bottom end of the middle push plate 32, so as to avoid hard contact between the bottom end of the middle push plate 32 and the bottom end of the strip-shaped groove 7, thereby preventing damage.

When the opening is sealed, the sealing valve plate 31 moves transversely to make the sealing ring 13 tightly press against the inner wall of the valve body 1, thereby further reducing the abrasion efficiency of the sealing ring 13. In this way, not only the abrasion efficiency of the sealing ring 13 can be effectively reduced, but also the frequency of maintenance of the plug valve by the staff can be reduced.

[0030] In the embodiment, the bottom end of the sealing valve plate 31 is provided with a second protective strip 15, the size of the sealing ring 13 is greater than the size of the opening, and the size of the first protective strip 14 matches the size of the strip-shaped groove 7.

[0031] Specifically, the second protective strip 15 is arranged, so that after the sealing valve plate 31 descends to the bottom of the insertion slot 6, the bottom end of the sealing valve plate 31 will not be in hard contact with the valve body 1, thereby prolonging the service life of the sealing valve plate 31.

[0032] In the present embodiment, the cylinder 4 is mounted by studs to the top end of the platen 2, the platen 2 is mounted by studs to the top end of the valve cover 16, and the valve cover 16 is mounted by studs to the top of the valve body 1.

[0033] Specifically, since the plug valve is connected by bolts and studs between the components, it is more convenient for the staff to disassemble and overhaul the plug valve.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that: the above only for the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application, although the foregoing embodiments of the present application has been described in detail, for those skilled in the art, it still can be modified, or part of the technical features of the equivalent replacement for the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments.
