[0053] Embodiment
[0054] The present embodiment provides a kind of ball valve auxiliary assembly structure, as shown in Figures 1 to 8 Including: bonnet 1, valve seat 2 and installation shaft 3.
[0055] The center of bonnet 1 is provided with through hole 11.As shown in Figures 2 to 4 The upper end of bonnet 1 close to valve seat 2 is provided with step-shaped installation platform. The upper side of installation platform close to valve seat 2 is first installation surface 12, first installation surface 12 is perpendicular to the central axis of through hole, first installation surface 12 is provided with first installation hole 13 on the left and right sides respectively with the central axis of through hole 11 as the center of symmetry, and a total of two first installation holes 13 are provided. First installation surface 12 is provided with a plurality of spring holes 14 spaced apart in annular array with the axis of through hole 11 as the center.
[0056] As shown in Figures 2 to 4As shown, the left and right sides of the valve seat 2 are provided with second mounting holes 21 which are symmetrically centered on the center axis of the through hole 11, and the two second mounting holes 21 are respectively arranged corresponding to the two first mounting holes 13.
[0057] In the top view of the valve cover 1, Figure 5 the diameter of the center circle of the center axis of the two second mounting holes 21 is equal to the diameter of the center circle of the center axis of the two first mounting holes 13, and the diameters of the holes 11 of the two first mounting holes 13 and the two second mounting holes 21 are the same.
[0058] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 the mounting shaft 3 is a rod, and the outer diameter of the mounting shaft 3 is equal to the inner diameter of the first mounting hole 13 and the second mounting hole 21.
[0059] When it is necessary to install the valve seat 2 on the valve cover 1, as shown in the drawings, Figure 2 first, a spring 4 is placed in each spring hole 14, the bottom end of the two mounting shafts 3 is respectively inserted into the first mounting hole 13, at this time, the center axis of the two mounting shafts 3 is parallel to the center axis of the through hole 11 and is in a vertical state, the two second mounting holes 21 are respectively aligned with the two mounting shafts 3 and the valve seat 2 is moved towards the direction close to the valve cover 1 until the two mounting shafts 3 are respectively inserted into the two second mounting holes 21. At this time, the valve seat 2 is in a horizontal state, a counterweight is placed above the valve seat 2, a downward force is applied to the valve seat 2, so that the valve seat 2 adheres to the outer surface of the mounting shaft 3 and moves downward along the axial direction of the through hole 11 until the valve seat 2 is adhered and mounted on the valve cover 1 below, and the mounting shaft 3 is extracted, and the installation is completed. Under normal circumstances, the length of the spring 4 is greater than the depth of the spring hole 14, and the two ends of the spring 4 can respectively abut against the valve cover 1 and the valve seat 2, so as to provide elastic support force to the valve seat 2 and the valve cover 1 after installation.
[0060] Through the above arrangement, the process hole 11 design of the guide is increased on the valve seat 2 and the valve cover 1, the structure is simple, the design has little influence on the cost of parts, and the existing traditional tooling is not needed, the first mounting hole 13 and the second mounting hole 21 are used to realize the lossless assembly of the valve cover 1 assembly, reduce the tooling cost, and in the process of installation, it is straight up and straight down, does not hinder the axial and radial movement of the valve seat 2, and does not affect the original sealing performance of the valve.
[0061] And since each ball valve manufacturer, the spring 4 is basically a standard part, the inner diameter will not change, so only two pins are needed to assemble most of the valves, improving the adaptability of the utility model.
[0062] In this embodiment, after installation, the central circles containing the central axes of the several spring holes 14, the two first mounting holes 13, and the several second mounting holes 21 are all centered on the diameter of the through hole 11. Furthermore, from a top view, the first mounting holes 13 and the second mounting holes 21 are positioned between the two spring holes 14.
[0063] like Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the diameter of the central circle containing the central axis of several spring holes 14 is A; the diameter of the central circle containing the central axis of the two first mounting holes 13 and the central circle containing the central axis of several second mounting holes 21 is B; the inner diameter of the spring 4 is D; the inner diameter of the first mounting hole 13 and the second mounting hole 21 is the same, which is d.
[0064] When the diameter A of the central circle containing the central axes of several spring holes 14 is equal to the diameter B of the central circle containing the central axes of the two first mounting holes 13 and the central circles containing the central axes of several second mounting holes 21, the process requirement is to ensure that the inner diameter d of the first mounting hole 13 and the second mounting hole 21 is less than the inner diameter D of the spring 4; to prevent the spring 4 from falling into the second mounting hole 21 on the valve seat 2 when the valve seat 2 rotates accidentally, causing installation failure.
[0065] Another processing method, when the valve seat 2 and valve cover 1 are sufficiently large, ensures that B ≤ AdD or B ≥ A + d + D, such that the distance from the end of the first mounting hole 13 away from the central axis of the through hole 11 to the central axis of the through hole 11 is less than the distance from the end of the spring hole 14 near the central axis of the through hole 11 to the central axis of the through hole 11; or the distance from the end of the first mounting hole 13 near the central axis of the through hole 11 to the central axis of the through hole 11 is greater than the distance from the end of the spring hole 14 away from the central axis of the through hole 11 to the central axis of the through hole 11. The first mounting hole 13 and the second mounting hole 21 are permanently misaligned with the spring hole 14. This also prevents the spring 4 from falling into the second mounting hole 21 on the valve seat 2 when the valve seat 2 rotates accidentally, thus preventing installation failure.
[0066] In this embodiment, the edges of the first mounting hole 13, the second mounting hole 21, and the spring hole 14 are chamfered to facilitate the insertion of the pin and better guide it. The ball valve auxiliary assembly structure also includes a sealing element 5, which needs to be placed between the valve cover 1 and the valve seat 2 during installation to provide a seal.
[0067] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
