Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0032] See appendix Figure 1The cryogenic hard-seal triple eccentric butterfly valve includes a valve body 16, a valve stem 14, a butterfly plate 12, and an actuator 20. The valve body 16 is an integrally cast structure, with both ends welded to pipelines. A main flow channel is formed within the valve body 16, and the butterfly plate 12 is sealed within the main flow channel. The butterfly plate 12 is connected to the valve stem 14. The actuator 20 drives the valve stem 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the butterfly plate 12 to rotate within the valve body 16, thus achieving the blocking or flow of the medium. The butterfly plate 12 and the main flow channel are sealed by a butterfly plate sealing assembly. The valve body 16 is sealed with a butterfly plate sealing assembly that is detachably disposed between the butterfly plate 12 and the valve body 16. A valve cover is sealed on the valve body 16, the valve cover including an upper valve cover 21 and an extended valve cover 6. A top operating hole and a top mounting hole are formed on the top of the valve body 16.

The extended valve cover 6 is fitted over the valve stem 14, and the bottom of the extended valve cover 6 is sealed and fitted with the upper surface of the top mounting hole. The top operating hole is located on the valve body inlet side.
[0033] Based on the above technical solution, the valve body adopts an integral casting structure, which is aesthetically pleasing, saves space and materials, and is welded to the pipeline at both ends to reduce the risk of leakage. The top operating hole and the upper valve cover 21 mainly serve to facilitate the maintenance of the internal seal of the valve body. Maintenance of the internal seal can be performed by opening the upper valve cover 21 without disassembling the valve body. The valve's upper flange adopts an ISO5211 standard flange design, which can meet the installation requirements of various actuators such as electric actuators, pneumatic actuators, and manual actuators.
[0034] Furthermore, the butterfly plate sealing assembly includes a butterfly plate sealing ring 26 and a pressure ring 27.

The valve seat 25 is a movable valve seat. When the valve is closed, under the pressure of the fluid medium, the valve seat moves towards the butterfly plate, compressing the butterfly plate sealing ring 26. Through the sealing fit between the butterfly plate sealing ring 26 and the valve seat sealing surface 32, the higher the pressure, the greater the compression of the butterfly plate sealing ring 26, and the more reliable the butterfly valve's seal.
[0037] Furthermore, the outer peripheral surface of the butterfly plate 12 is provided with an assembly groove for assembling the butterfly plate sealing ring 26, and the outer peripheral surface of the butterfly plate 12 is provided with a stepped structure.

[0054] Furthermore, the valve stem 14 is an integral structure; the butterfly plate 12 is keyed to the valve stem 14 and fastened with screws, and the valve stem 14 rotates to drive the butterfly plate 12 to rotate synchronously.
[0055] This cryogenic hard-seal triple-eccentric butterfly valve is suitable for liquefied natural gas and other media with temperatures above -196℃. The working principle is as follows: the actuator rotates the valve stem 90° counterclockwise, causing the butterfly plate to rotate and opening the valve, allowing the medium to pass through from the inlet side; the actuator then rotates the valve stem 90° clockwise, causing the butterfly plate to rotate and closing the valve, cutting off the medium in the pipeline. The extended valve cover meets relevant standard requirements and is designed using finite element software temperature field analysis to ensure no freezing point at the packing. The upper valve cover adopts an ergonomic design concept to ensure easy online maintenance. The valve stem uses an integral structure with high machining precision and strong torque bearing capacity, and is equipped with an anti-static device, making it suitable for flammable and explosive media conditions. The three eccentric values of this triple-eccentric butterfly valve are designed using three-dimensional software dynamic simulation analysis, meeting the requirements for full differential pressure sealing in both directions. It is a torque-type sealing butterfly valve with reliable sealing and can withstand high pressure, high temperature, and low temperature operating requirements.
