AI Technical Summary
After prolonged use, the sealing ring of a ball valve is prone to aging and deformation, resulting in reduced sealing performance. In particular, ball valves with a single sealing ring are prone to leakage between the main valve body and the side valve body.
The first seal is formed by setting a PTFE sealing bushing between the valve seat and the main valve body. The second and third seals are formed by pressing the first and second extrusion rings together. This enhances the sealing effect.
This improves the sealing performance between the main valve body and the side valve body of the ball valve, reduces the probability of leakage after long-term use, and ensures the high sealing performance of the ball valve.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ball valve sealing, specifically to a ball valve with high sealing performance. Background Technology
[0002] A ball valve is a type of valve that is operated by a valve stem and rotates around the valve axis. It can also be used for fluid regulation and control. Among them, the hard-seal V-type ball valve has a strong shearing force between its V-shaped ball core and the metal valve seat with hard alloy overlay, making it particularly suitable for media containing fibers, small solid particles, etc. Multi-port ball valves can not only flexibly control the merging, splitting, and switching of the flow direction of media in pipelines, but also close any channel while connecting the other two channels.
[0003] Ball valves are prone to the following problems during use: After prolonged use, the sealing ring of the ball valve is prone to aging and deformation, which leads to a decrease in the sealing performance of the ball valve. This is especially true for ball valves with a single sealing ring, where reduced sealing performance makes leakage between the main valve body and the side valve body more likely. Therefore, this utility model proposes a ball valve with high sealing performance. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a ball valve with high sealing performance. The first seal is formed by the PTFE sealing bushing between the valve seat and the main valve body. The second seal is formed by the first extrusion ring pressing the first sealing ring. The third seal is formed by the second extrusion ring pressing the second sealing ring. This greatly improves the sealing performance between the main valve body and the side valve body of the ball valve and reduces the probability of water leakage between the main valve body and the side valve body after long-term use.
[0005] Technical solution
[0006] A high-sealing ball valve includes a main valve body and side valve bodies located on both sides of the main valve body. Valve seats are provided on opposite sides of the two side valve bodies, and a ball core located inside the main valve body is provided between the two valve seats. A valve stem rotatably connected to the main valve body is mounted on the ball core. A first sealing ring groove is also provided on the side of the side valve body near the main valve body, and a first sealing ring is provided in the first sealing ring groove. A second sealing ring groove is provided on the two sides of the main valve body near the side valve bodies, and a second sealing ring is provided in the second sealing ring groove.
[0007] Furthermore, the main valve body is provided with a first compression ring portion on both sides near the side valve body, which can be precisely engaged with the first sealing ring groove for compressing the first sealing ring.
[0008] Furthermore, the side valve body is provided with a second compression ring portion on the side surface near the main valve body, which can be precisely engaged with the second sealing ring groove for compressing the second sealing ring.
[0009] Furthermore, the annular side surfaces of the first extrusion ring portion and the second extrusion ring portion abut against each other.
[0010] Furthermore, a PTFE sealing bushing is fitted on the side of the valve seat near the ball core, and the outer annular surface of the PTFE sealing bushing abuts against the inner annular wall of the main valve body.
[0011] Furthermore, a stepped structure is provided on the outer ring surface of the PTFE sealing bushing, and the stepped structure abuts and matches the raised step on the inner side of the main valve body.
[0012] Furthermore, a threaded post extends between the two side valve bodies, and nuts are threaded at both ends of the threaded post to press and fix the side valve body and the main valve body together.
[0013] Furthermore, a third sealing ring is provided between the valve stem and the main valve body.
[0014] Beneficial effects
[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0016] The ball valve achieves a first seal by using a PTFE sealing bushing between the valve seat and the main valve body. A second seal is formed by pressing the first sealing ring with the first compression ring. A third seal is formed by pressing the second sealing ring with the second compression ring. This significantly improves the sealing performance between the main valve body and the side valve body. Even if the first and second sealing rings age and deform, the presence of the PTFE sealing bushing and the multiple sealing rings can still ensure the sealing performance of the ball valve and reduce the probability of leakage between the main valve body and the side valve body after long-term use.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] To better illustrate the content of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0022] have Figures 1-2 As shown, this utility model discloses a ball valve with high sealing performance, including a main valve body 1 and side valve bodies 2 located on both sides of the main valve body 1. A valve seat 3 is provided on the opposite side surface of the two side valve bodies 2. A ball core 4 located inside the main valve body 1 is provided between the two valve seats 3. A valve stem 5 rotatably connected to the main valve body 1 is installed on the ball core 4. A first sealing ring groove 13 is also provided on the side surface of the side valve body 2 near the main valve body 1. A first sealing ring 12 is provided in the first sealing ring groove 13. A second sealing ring groove 10 is provided on the two sides of the main valve body 1 near the side valve bodies 2. A second sealing ring 15 is provided in the second sealing ring groove 10.
[0023] Furthermore, the main valve body 1 is provided with a first compression ring 14 on both sides near the side valve body 2, which can be precisely inserted into the first sealing ring groove 13 to compress the first sealing ring 12.
[0024] Furthermore, a second compression ring 11 for compressing the second sealing ring 15 is provided on the side surface of the side valve body 2 near the main valve body 1, which can be precisely inserted into the second sealing ring groove 10.
[0025] Furthermore, the annular side surfaces of the first extrusion ring portion 14 and the second extrusion ring portion 11 abut against each other.
[0026] Furthermore, a PTFE sealing bushing 7 is fitted on the side of the valve seat 3 near the ball core 4, and the outer annular surface of the PTFE sealing bushing 7 abuts against the inner annular wall of the main valve body 1.
[0027] Furthermore, a stepped structure 17 is provided on the outer ring surface of the PTFE sealing bushing 7, and the stepped structure 17 abuts and matches the raised step 16 on the inner side of the main valve body 1.
[0028] Furthermore, a threaded post 8 passes through between the two side valve bodies 2, and the two ends of the threaded post 8 are threaded with nuts 9 for pressing and fixing the side valve body 2 and the main valve body 1 together.
[0029] Furthermore, a third sealing ring 6 is provided between the valve stem 5 and the main valve body 1.
[0030] Specifically, the first seal is formed by the PTFE sealing bushing 7 between the valve seat 3 and the main valve body 1, the second seal is formed by the first compression ring 14 pressing the first sealing ring 12, and the third seal is formed by the second compression ring 11 pressing the second sealing ring 15. This greatly improves the sealing performance between the main valve body 1 and the side valve body 2 of the ball valve. Even if the first sealing ring 12 and the second sealing ring 15 age and deform, the presence of the PTFE sealing bushing 7 and the setting of multiple sealing rings can still ensure the sealing performance of the ball valve and reduce the probability of water leakage between the main valve body 1 and the side valve body 2 after long-term use.
