The snap-fit ​​portion cooperates with the first positioning groove, and the limiting portion cooperates with the second positioning groove.

[0007] More preferably, the anti-blowout ring includes multiple ring plates, and the multiple baffle plates are joined end to end to form the anti-blowout ring, which also includes a thrust pad for engaging between the valve stem and the limiting part.

[0008] More preferably, the ring is provided with at least one fixing hole, and the ring is fixedly connected to the valve stem by screws.

[0009] More preferably, the ring plate is provided with 4 or 6 ring plates.

[0010] More preferably, the thrust pad is annular.

[0011] Preferably, further comprising a top flange and an upper cover arranged between the top flange and the valve body, the upper cover being provided with an abutting portion for pushing the valve stem into the valve body, and the top flange and the upper cover being fixedly connected to the valve body by bolts.

[0012] The utility model discloses the advantages are:

[0023] Referring to the drawings Figure 1As shown in the figure, a blowout prevention ball valve includes a valve body 1, a valve stem 2, a ball 3, a valve seat 4, and a blowout prevention ring 5. The valve stem 2 is provided with a first positioning groove 6 concaved inward on the outer periphery thereof. The valve body 1 is provided with a second positioning groove 7 concaved outward on the inner wall thereof. The blowout prevention ring 5 is arranged between the first positioning groove 6 and the second positioning groove 7.

[0024] Referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the ring section of the blowout prevention ring 5 is in the shape of "L", which includes a clamping portion 51 distributed radially along the valve stem 2 and a limiting portion 52 extending axially along the valve stem 2 from the outer edge of the clamping portion 51. The clamping portion 51 cooperates with the first positioning groove 6, and the limiting portion 52 cooperates with the second positioning groove 7.

[0025] Referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the blowout prevention ring 5 includes four ring pieces, which are connected end to end to form the blowout prevention ring 5. The blowout prevention ring 5 further includes a ring-shaped thrust pad 8 arranged between the valve stem 2 and the limiting portion 52. The thrust pad 8 can keep the clamping portion 51 of the blowout prevention ring 5 in the second positioning groove 7, preventing the blowout prevention ring 5 from coming off.

[0026] At least one fixing hole is arranged on the ring piece, and the ring piece is fixedly connected to the valve stem 2 by a screw, which can further increase the stability of the blowout prevention ring 5.

[0027] The blowout prevention ring 5 further includes a top flange 9 and an upper cover 10 arranged between the top flange 9 and the valve body 1. The upper cover 10 is provided with an abutting portion for abutting the valve stem 2 to the valve body 1. The top flange 9 and the upper cover 10 are fixedly connected to the valve body 1 by a bolt.

[0028] The installation steps of the embodiment are as follows:

[0029] 1. Referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the blowout prevention ring 5 is installed from the periphery of the valve stem 2 into the first positioning groove 6 at the bottom of the valve stem 2, and is tightly attached to the valve stem.

[0030] 2. Referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the valve stem 2 is slowly inserted from the top of the valve body 4, and the installation of the valve stem 2 to the bottom position is completed.

[0031] 3. Referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the blowout prevention ring 5 is moved away to the second positioning groove 7 inside the valve body 4, the thrust pad 8 is put in, and finally the installation of the remaining parts is completed.

[0032] After the blowout prevention ring 5 is arranged, even if the ball valve has been installed in the pipeline, the blowout prevention ring 5 can effectively block the valve stem 2 in the valve body 1 in the case of on-site maintenance or disassembly of the upper cover 10. The risk of the valve stem 2 flying out due to the disassembly of the upper cover 10 fastening bolt during maintenance can be effectively avoided, and the safety of the on-site operators and other facilities can be effectively ensured.
