AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The rubber seats of existing ball valves are prone to aging and are subject to thermal expansion and contraction due to the medium, which affects their sealing performance.

Method used

A rotary drive gear drives a two-way lead screw, which in turn drives a lifting plate to press the main valve seat and valve core. Combined with the worm gear driving the worm wheel to rotate the valve core, the self-locking property of the worm wheel and worm gear is used to prevent the valve core from reversing. The screw also drives the pressure plate to rise and fall to prevent the water pipe from detaching.

Benefits of technology

It improves the sealing performance between the valve seat and the valve core, ensuring the stability and safety of the ball valve and preventing sealing problems caused by aging of the rubber valve seat and the influence of the medium.
