Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of valve technology, and in particular to a high-platform ball valve. Background Technology
[0002] Ball valves and gate valves belong to the same type of valve. The difference is that the closing element of a ball valve is a ball. The ball rotates around the center line of the valve body to open and close the valve. Ball valves are mainly used in pipelines for shut-off, distribution and changing the flow direction of the medium. Ball valves are a widely used new type of valve.
[0003] Ball valves generally consist of a valve body and a valve stem. The valve stem drives the ball to rotate. However, because the existing valve stem positioning methods are all single positioning, inaccurate positioning may occur during rotation, affecting the performance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a high-platform ball valve to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A high-platform ball valve, characterized in that it includes a valve body and a valve stem, the valve stem being connected to a ball, a first positioning component being disposed between the valve stem and the valve body, the first positioning component being located at the initial contact point between the valve stem and the valve body, the first positioning component including a valve body positioning ring and a valve stem positioning ring, the valve body positioning ring being sleeved on the valve stem, a first placement space being formed between the valve body positioning ring and the valve body, a second placement space being formed between the valve body positioning ring and the valve stem, the valve stem positioning ring being sleeved on the valve stem and located in the first placement space, and a plastic guide ring being disposed in the first placement space and / or the second placement space.
[0007] The present invention further includes an adjusting spring below the first positioning component, an anti-loosening washer and an adjusting nut below the adjusting spring, and a packing sleeve and a matching packing assembly below the adjusting nut. The packing sleeve and the packing assembly form a second positioning component. The packing assembly is sleeved on the valve stem and abuts against the valve body through the packing sleeve.
[0008] The present invention further includes a third positioning component on the side of the valve stem near the ball, the third positioning component being a plastic washer fitted onto the valve stem.
[0009] The present invention further includes valve seats on both sides of the valve body, and a bushing between the valve seat and the valve body, the bushing being sleeved on the valve seat.
[0010] The present invention further includes a valve cover, which is located outside the valve seat. A compensating spring is provided between the valve cover and the valve body, and a metal washer is provided on the side of the compensating spring near the valve seat.
[0011] In a further embodiment of this invention, a sealing ring is provided between the valve body and the valve stem, and the sealing ring is located below the packing assembly.
[0012] In a further embodiment of this invention, the adjusting spring is a wave spring, a saddle spring, or a disc spring.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model achieves a three-sided positioning function overall, improving the positioning effect of the valve stem through multiple positioning methods. Specifically, a first positioning component is formed by a valve body positioning ring and a valve stem positioning ring, achieving dual positioning between the valve stem and the valve body. The two ends of the valve body positioning ring abut against the valve body and the valve stem respectively, forming a first placement space and a second placement space. The first placement space is used to place the valve stem positioning ring to further achieve the positioning of the valve stem, and is equipped with a first plastic guide ring to ensure the stability and guidance of the valve stem during rotation. Secondly, a second plastic guide ring is equipped in the second placement space. Since both the valve body positioning ring and the valve stem positioning ring are sleeved on the valve stem, the second plastic guide ring is used to ensure the stability and guidance of the valve body positioning ring, achieving radial centering. The first plastic guide ring and the second plastic guide ring can be selected or both can be selected according to requirements. The first positioning component can ensure the positioning effect of the valve stem and avoid eccentricity, ensuring the concentricity of the valve stem. In addition, the second positioning component is composed of a packing sleeve and a packing group, which has an automatic centering function to prevent eccentricity while ensuring sealing; the third positioning component is achieved by a metal gasket.

[0020] like Figure 1-2 As shown, this utility model provides a high-platform ball valve, including a valve body 1 and a valve stem 3. The valve stem 3 is connected to a ball 8. A first positioning component is provided between the valve stem 3 and the valve body 1. The first positioning component is located at the initial contact point between the valve stem 3 and the valve body 1. The first positioning component includes a valve body positioning ring 6 and a valve stem positioning ring 7. The valve body positioning ring 6 is sleeved on the valve stem 3, forming a first placement space between the valve body positioning ring 6 and the valve body 1, and forming a second placement space between the valve body positioning ring 6 and the valve stem 3. The valve stem positioning ring 7 is sleeved on the valve stem 3 and located in the first placement space. A plastic guide ring is provided in the first placement space and / or the second placement space.
[0021] like Figure 3 As shown, when setting the plastic guide ring, a first plastic guide ring 18 can be set separately between the valve stem positioning ring 7 and the valve body positioning ring 6, and the first plastic guide ring 18 is located in the first placement space.
[0022] Alternatively, a second plastic guide ring 19 may be provided separately between the valve body positioning ring 6 and the valve body 1, and the second plastic guide ring 19 is located in the second placement space.
[0023] Alternatively, a first plastic guide ring or a second plastic guide ring may be provided simultaneously in the first placement space and the second placement space, respectively, such as... Figure 2 As shown;
[0024] In this invention, an adjusting spring 24 is provided below the first positioning component. The adjusting spring can be a wave spring, a saddle spring, a disc spring, or other springs. Below the adjusting spring 24, an anti-loosening washer 10 and an adjusting nut 9 are provided. Below the adjusting nut 9, a packing sleeve 12 and a matching packing assembly 11 are provided. The packing sleeve 12 and the packing assembly 11 form the second positioning component. The packing assembly 11 is sleeved on the valve stem 3 and abuts against the valve body 1 through the packing sleeve 12. The packing assembly 11 is a V-shaped packing assembly. The functions of the adjusting nut 9 and the anti-loosening washer 10, as well as the functions of the packing sleeve 12 and the packing assembly 11, have been described in patent publication number CN218440951U and will not be elaborated upon here.
[0025] In addition, a third positioning component is provided on the side of the valve stem 3 near the ball 8. The third positioning component is a plastic washer 15 and is sleeved on the valve stem 3.
