[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0015] Please see Figure 1 , 23. This utility model provides a high-sealing bellows ball valve structure, including: a valve body 1, a valve seat 2, a ball 3, an upper valve stem 4, a guide pin 5, a drive sleeve 6, a bellows 7, and a lifting mechanism 8. The valve body 1 is a general-purpose valve body for ball valves. The valve seat 2 is disposed inside the valve body 1. The ball 3 is disposed inside the valve body 1 and matches the valve seat 2. The upper valve stem 4 is fixed to the top of the ball 3, and the top of the upper valve stem 4 extends out of the top of the valve body 1. The guide pin 5 is horizontal. The drive sleeve 6 is fixed to the top of the upper valve stem 4. Inclined lifting grooves 10 are symmetrically opened on both sides of the drive sleeve 6. The drive sleeve 6 is sleeved on the top of the upper valve stem 4, and the two ends of the guide pin 5 are respectively slidably connected in the lifting grooves 10 of the drive sleeve 6. The bellows 7 is sleeved on the outside of the drive sleeve 6. The lower end of the bellows 7 is fixed to the top of the valve body 1, and the upper end of the bellows 7 is fixed to the top of the drive sleeve 6 through a connecting piece. The lifting mechanism 8 is fixed to the top of the valve body 1, and the lifting end of the lifting mechanism 8 is fixed to the top of the drive sleeve 6.

[0016] An improvement is made to the existing ball valve by introducing a bellows 7 as a sealing element to enhance the sealing performance of the ball valve and meet the requirements for conveying toxic and harmful fluids. Specifically, a guide pin 5 is first set at the top of the upper valve stem 4, and a drive sleeve 6 is sleeved on the top of the upper valve stem 4. Since the two ends of the guide pin 5 are respectively slidably connected in the lifting groove 10 of the drive sleeve 6, when the lifting mechanism 8 pulls the drive sleeve 6 up and down, the guide pin 5 will drive the upper valve stem 4 and the ball 3 to rotate under the action of the lifting groove 10, thereby realizing the opening and closing action of the ball valve. Since the bellows 7 is sleeved on the outside of the drive sleeve 6, and the lower end of the bellows 7 is fixed to the top of the valve body 1, and the upper end of the bellows 7 is fixed to the top of the drive sleeve 6 through a connecting piece, the bellows 7 will expand and contract during the opening and closing of the ball valve, thus achieving the sealing function. The bellows-sealed ball valve has high safety and reliability. The bellows element itself has deformability and anti-aging properties, which can overcome the weaknesses of packing sealing valves such as packing aging and temperature difference sensitivity.

[0017] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism 8 includes a housing 11, a lifting rod 12, a threaded tube 13, a connecting seat 14, and a handwheel 15. The housing 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the valve body 1, and the top of the upper valve stem 4 is located inside the housing 11. The lifting rod 12 is slidably connected to the inside of the housing 11 through a guide groove. The connecting seat 14 is set above the top of the housing 11 through a bracket. The threaded tube 13 is movably connected to the connecting seat 14 through a bearing, and the threaded tube 13 is threadedly connected to the top of the lifting rod 12. The handwheel 15 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the threaded tube 13.

[0018] By rotating the handwheel 15, the threaded tube 13 is driven to rotate. Since the threaded tube 13 is connected to the top of the lifting rod 12 by a thread, the lifting rod 12 can achieve the action of lifting and lowering, thereby performing the lifting and lowering operation of the drive sleeve 6.

[0019] Furthermore, a packing seal 9 is provided at the connection between the housing 11 and the lifting rod 12.

[0020] The valve employs a double sealing structure consisting of a bellows and packing, further enhancing its safety and reliability.

[0021] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
