[0027] The utility model will be further described in detail in combination with the drawings.

[0028] The natural gas pipeline stop valve is a valve widely used in natural gas conveying and distribution systems, which is mainly used to cut off or connect the flow of natural gas, and can adjust the flow to a certain extent.

[0029] The traditional stop valve is usually composed of a valve body, a valve flap, a valve rod, a hand wheel and the like. The valve body is the shell of the valve, which provides support and accommodation space for other components, and is connected with the pipeline. The valve flap is the key sealing component of the stop valve, which is generally disc-shaped, and the sealing surface can be flat or conical. The valve rod is used to connect the valve flap and the hand wheel, and the valve flap is lifted or lowered by rotating the hand wheel to drive the valve rod up and down.

[0030] ​The process before the installation of the stop valve will be introduced in detail below. Before installation, the model and specification of the stop valve should be carefully checked to see if they match the requirements of the natural gas pipeline system. The nominal pressure, nominal diameter, and connection method of the valve should also be checked to ensure their correctness. For example, the nominal pressure of the valve should not be lower than the maximum working pressure of the pipeline system. The appearance of the valve should be checked for any damage, such as cracks in the valve body, bending of the valve stem, and scratches on the sealing surface of the valve disc. If any damage is found, the valve should be replaced or repaired in a timely manner. At the same time, the stop valve has a clear flow direction requirement. Natural gas should enter from the "inlet" side (usually above the valve disc) and flow out from the "outlet" side (usually below the valve disc). The valve must be installed strictly according to this flow direction, otherwise it will affect the sealing performance of the valve. Secondly, the valve and the pipeline can be connected by flange connection, threaded connection, or welding connection. For flange connection, the flatness of the flange face and the quality of the gasket should be ensured. During installation, the gasket is placed between the two flanges, and then the flanges are tightened evenly with bolts to compress the gasket and achieve a sealing effect. For threaded connection, a suitable amount of sealant should be applied to the threads before screwing the valve into the threaded interface of the pipeline. Note that the tightening degree should be appropriate to avoid damaging the threads. Welding connection requires professional welders to follow the welding process to ensure the quality of the weld and prevent defects such as porosity and cracks. After welding, the weld should also be subjected to non-destructive testing.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1-4 In the present embodiment, a natural gas pipeline valve body is provided, which comprises: a valve body 1, a valve seat 2 is fixedly arranged in the valve body 1, the valve seat 2 divides the valve body 1 into a first cavity 3 and a second cavity 4, a valve hole 5 is formed in the valve seat 2, and the valve hole 5 communicates the first cavity 3 and the second cavity 4; a valve cover 6 is threadedly connected with the valve body 1; a first valve stem 7 is threadedly connected with the valve cover 6 and extends into the first cavity 3, and a valve disc 8 is fixedly arranged at one end of the first valve stem 7 in the first cavity 3; a second valve stem 9 is threadedly connected with the first valve stem 7 and extends into the second cavity 4 along the valve hole 5, and an upper pressing block 10 is fixedly arranged at one end of the second valve stem 9 in the second cavity 4; a hand wheel 11 is fixedly arranged on the first valve stem 7 and the second valve stem 9.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 2-4When the valve body 1 of the natural gas pipeline valve needs to be closed, first rotate the second valve rod 9 to drive the upper pressing block 10 on the second valve rod 9 to move upward in the second cavity 4 of the valve body 1, and the upper pressing block 10 is tightly closed with the valve seat 2 to close the valve hole 5. At this time, the upper pressing block 10 can support the valve seat 2 and close the valve hole 5. Then rotate the first valve rod 7 to make the valve flap 8 on the first valve rod 7 move downward, and the valve flap 8 tightly closes the valve hole 5. Because the upper pressing block 10 can support the valve seat 2, the valve seat 2 is less likely to be deformed under pressure compared with the traditional natural gas pipeline valve when the valve flap 8 is pressed downward. At the same time, the valve flap 8 and the upper pressing block 10 can both play a sealing role, which can effectively improve the sealing performance and solve the problem that the traditional natural gas pipeline valve is prone to deformation under pressure as the use time increases, the valve flap 8 exerts downward pressure under the drive of the valve rod, the valve seat 2 is stressed and is prone to downward deformation, the opening between the valve seats 2 increases, or a gap is formed between the valve flap 8 and the valve seat 2, causing gas leakage.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 3 By providing an extension ring 12 on the first valve rod 7, the extension ring 12 is fixed with the valve flap 8 and the first valve rod 7, and a sealing ring 13 is provided on the extension ring 12, and a sealing groove 14 matching the sealing ring 13 is provided on the valve seat 2. During the closing process of the valve, the sealing ring 13 moves with the extension ring 12 and the valve flap 8 towards the valve seat 2. When the valve flap 8 contacts the valve seat 2 to achieve primary sealing, the sealing ring 13 is also embedded in the sealing groove 14 of the valve seat 2. The sealing ring 13 is usually made of materials with good elasticity and sealing performance, such as rubber, polytetrafluoroethylene, etc. The sealing ring 13 is squeezed in the sealing groove 14, filling the small gap between the sealing groove 14 and the sealing ring 13, thereby preventing natural gas from leaking from the side between the valve flap 8 and the valve seat 2, and playing a secondary sealing role.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3 By fixing an upper abutting ring 15 on the first valve rod 7, the upper abutting ring 15 abuts against the valve cover 6, and at the same time, when the first valve rod 7 is limited to move upwards and abut against the valve cover 6, the upper abutting ring 15 is attached to the inner wall of the valve body 1 and seals the valve body 1. During the opening process of the valve, the valve rod pulls up the valve flap 8. When the valve rod moves to a certain extent, the upper abutting ring 15 contacts the valve cover 6, which can limit the upward movement of the first valve rod 7. In addition, the upper abutting ring 15 is attached to the inner wall of the valve body 1. During the closing or opening process of the valve, natural gas is prone to flowing upwards through the gap between the valve rod and the valve body 1, and the upper abutting ring 15 effectively blocks the leakage path.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 2The loading hole 16 opened on the valve seat 2 is a space for placing the packing 17, the loading hole 16 faces the valve body 1, and the packing 17 can surround the valve rod and play a sealing and supporting role, the size and shape of the loading hole 16 are designed according to the shape and number of the packing 17, and the loading hole 16 is usually a cylindrical hole to adapt to the cylindrical packing 17, the packing 17 plays a crucial role in the valve, and the main function is to prevent natural gas from leaking from the gap between the valve rod and the valve seat 2, and the packing 17 is usually made of a material with good sealing performance, corrosion resistance and a certain elasticity. For example, the commonly used packing 17 materials are polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and graphite. The PTFE packing 17 has excellent chemical stability and can resist the corrosion of various chemical substances in natural gas, and the friction coefficient is low, which is beneficial to the smooth sliding of the valve rod. The graphite packing 17 has good high-temperature resistance and self-lubricating performance and is widely used in some valves in high-temperature environments.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 3-4 A through hole 18 is opened on the part of the second valve rod 9 protruding from the valve disc 8, which can assist the flow of natural gas.

[0037] The utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, any person should know the structural change made under the inspiration of the utility model, and any technical scheme with the same or similar utility model falls into the protection scope of the utility model. The utility model does not describe the technology, shape and structure part in detail, which is the known technology.
