Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline valve technology, specifically to a butterfly valve that is easy to maintain. Background Technology

[0002] A butterfly valve, also known as a flap valve, is a simple regulating valve that can be used for on / off control of low-pressure pipeline media. A butterfly valve is a type of valve in which the closing element (valve disc or butterfly plate) is a disc that rotates around the valve shaft to achieve opening and closing.

[0003] For butterfly valves used for a long time, regular maintenance is required. However, during disassembly, due to prolonged operation, the two pipes connected to the butterfly valve may become compressed or stuck together with time and pressure, even after the flange bolts are removed, making it impossible to remove directly. In such cases, an expander is often used to widen the gap between the butterfly valve and the pipe to remove it. However, when an expander is not available, using other tools to pry can damage the connecting end plane, affecting the sealing effect later. Therefore, a butterfly valve that can be easily removed without the use of an expander when compressed or stuck is needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the issues raised in the appeal, this utility model provides a butterfly valve that is easy to maintain, thereby resolving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, the specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A butterfly valve that is easy to maintain includes a valve body, a second flange provided on one side surface of the valve body, a groove provided on one side surface of the second flange, and a second sealing ring provided in the groove. A through groove is opened on one side surface of the second flange, and a second fixing bolt is inserted into the through groove. A third flange is connected to the second flange through the second fixing bolt. A first pipe body is connected to one side surface of the third flange, and the first pipe body is inserted into the second pipe body.

[0007] Furthermore, a protrusion is provided on one side surface of the second tube body, and a first fixing bolt is provided on the top surface of the protrusion. A first sealing ring is provided on the bottom surface of the protrusion, and the first sealing ring is located inside the second tube body.

[0008] Furthermore, the second fixing bolt is threaded with a fixing nut.

[0009] Furthermore, a first flange is provided on one side surface of the valve body.

[0010] Furthermore, a fourth flange is provided on one side surface of the second pipe body.

[0011] Furthermore, a plurality of protrusions are provided, and the plurality of protrusions are provided on one side surface of the second tube body.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a butterfly valve that is easy to maintain and has the following advantages:

[0013] (1) This utility model adopts a first pipe body, a second pipe body, a protrusion and a first sealing ring. In actual use, the first pipe body is connected to the second flange through the second fixing bolt, the second sealing ring and the fixing nut, and the first pipe body is connected to one end of the third flange. The first pipe body moves in the mixing cylinder through the movable plug. Then, the first sealing ring in the protrusion is driven by rotating the first fixing bolt to fix the first pipe body. At the same time, the first sealing ring prevents water from being discharged. The first pipe body reduces the water from flowing out through the gap through the protrusion and the first sealing ring. By disassembling the connection between the first pipe body and the valve body, the first pipe body can extend and retract through the second pipe body, which facilitates the inspection and maintenance of the valve body. At the same time, it increases the operating space of the staff and increases the practicality of the device. Attached Figure Description
