Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sealing forming or configuration technology, specifically a butterfly valve with good sealing performance. Background Technology
[0002] A butterfly valve, also known as a flap valve, is a simple regulating valve used for on / off control of low-pressure pipeline media. A butterfly valve is a type of valve where the closing element is a disc that rotates around a valve shaft to open and close. Butterfly valves can control the flow of various types of fluids, including air, water, steam, various corrosive media, mud, oil, liquid metals, and radioactive media. In pipelines, they primarily function as shut-off and throttling devices. The butterfly valve's opening and closing element is a disc-shaped valve plate that rotates around its own axis within the valve body to achieve opening, closing, or regulation.
[0003] When a butterfly valve needs to be closed during use, the valve plate will still be impacted by the medium being transported in the pipeline after the valve plate is closed. After being impacted for a long time, the valve plate will deform. After deformation, the periphery of the valve plate will not be able to completely fit with the inner wall of the valve body. As a result, the fluid in the pipeline can pass through the gap between the valve plate and the inner wall of the valve body, which will reduce the sealing effect of the butterfly valve.

[0013] The two stops are rotatably arranged, and both stops are smaller than semicircles, so that the valve plate will not interfere with the movement of the stops when it rotates.

The use of terms like "first" and "second" is merely for distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, or implicitly indicating the quantity or sequence of the indicated technical features.
[0030] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0031] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a new technical solution: a butterfly valve with good sealing performance, including a valve body 1, a valve plate 2 rotatably connected inside the valve body 1, a sealing ring 3 fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the valve plate 2, the sealing ring 3 contacting the inner wall of the valve body 1, a first valve shell 4 fixedly connected to the upper side of the outer surface of the valve body 1, a second valve shell 5 connected to the upper side of the first valve shell 4, a first flange 6 fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of both the first valve shell 4 and the second valve shell 5, and a bolt 7 fixedly connected between the two first flanges 6, a valve stem 8 installed on the upper side of the second valve shell 5, the lower end of the valve stem 8 rotatably extending through the second valve shell 5 and the first valve shell 4, the lower end of the valve stem 8... The valve stem 8 extends into the interior of the valve body 1. The lower end of the valve stem 8 passes through the valve plate 2, and the valve stem 8 and the valve plate 2 are fixedly connected. The lower end of the valve stem 8 is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the valve body 1. Two second flanges 9 are fixedly fitted on the outer surface of the valve body 1. The butterfly valve is connected to the pipeline through the two second flanges 9. A sealing mechanism is provided inside the valve body 1. The sealing mechanism can distribute the impact force on the valve plate 2 and improve the sealing effect of the first valve shell 4. The sealing mechanism includes two stops 10, two sealing gaskets 11, two first support rods 12, two sets of second support rods 13, sealing ring groove 14, and sealing ring 15.
[0032] Furthermore, both stops 10 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the valve body 1. The two stops 10 are respectively set on the front and rear sides of the valve plate 2. The two stops 10 are rotatably set. Both stops 10 are smaller than semicircles, so that the valve plate 2 will not interfere with the movement of the stops 10 when it rotates. The sides of the two stops 10 that are far apart from each other are arc-shaped surfaces. Two sealing gaskets 11 are fixedly connected to the opposite surfaces of the two stops 10. Both sealing gaskets 11 are in contact with the valve plate 2. Two first support rods 12 are fixedly connected to the two stops 10. Two sets of second support rods 13 are fixedly connected to the sides of the two first support rods 12 that are far apart from each other. The ends of the two sets of second support rods 13 that are far apart from each other are fixedly connected to the two stops 10. The sealing ring groove 14 is opened inside the first valve shell 4. The sealing ring 15 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the valve stem 8. The sealing ring 15 is rotatably connected inside the sealing ring groove 14.
[0033] Furthermore, at the start of operation, the operator rotates the valve stem 8 counterclockwise, causing the valve plate 2 and sealing ring 3 to rotate synchronously. This opens the valve body 1, allowing fluid to flow through. Then, rotating the valve stem 8 clockwise closes the valve plate 2 and sealing ring 3, preventing fluid from passing through the valve body 1. At this point, the sealing ring 3 contacts the inner wall of the valve body 1, ensuring a tight seal after closure. Simultaneously, the two stops 10 contact the valve plate 2, and the two sealing gaskets 11 on the stops 10 adhere to the valve plate 2, further sealing it and improving its sealing performance. The sealing ring 15 ensures the internal sealing of the valve body 1. When the valve plate 2 is impacted, the stop block 10, the first support rod 12, and the second support rod 13 come into contact with the valve plate 2, thus distributing the impact on the valve plate 2. This reduces the impact force on the valve plate 2, making it less prone to deformation due to impact, thereby ensuring the sealing effect of the valve plate 2. At the same time, the sealing ring 15 can seal the connection between the valve stem 8 and the first valve shell 4, thereby preventing liquid inside the valve body 1 from leaking out through the gap between the valve stem 8 and the first valve shell 4, further improving the sealing performance of the butterfly valve.
[0034] Furthermore, in this way, the impact on valve plate 2 can be distributed, thereby reducing the impact force on valve plate 2 and making it less prone to deformation due to impact, thus improving the sealing effect of the butterfly valve.
[0035] Structural Description: Valve Body 1: As the main structure of the butterfly valve, it provides the mounting base for other components and forms a fluid channel inside. The flow and cut-off of fluid are controlled by the rotation of the valve plate 2.

They are rotatably arranged and have a structure smaller than a semicircle to avoid motion interference with the rotating valve plate 2. The side of the stop blocks 10 that is far apart from each other is an arc-shaped surface, and a sealing gasket 11 is fixedly connected to its opposite surface, which contacts the valve plate 2 to share the impact force on the valve plate 2. At the same time, the sealing gasket 11 further improves the sealing performance inside the valve body 1.
[0045] Sealing gasket 11: There are two sealing gaskets 11, which are fixedly connected to the opposite surfaces of the two stops 10 and in contact with the valve plate 2.

The opposite ends of the two sets of second support rods 13 are fixedly connected to the two stops 10. This further enhances the structural stability of the stops 10 and the first support rods 12, and shares the impact force on the valve plate 2 with the stops 10 and the first support rods 12.
[0048] Sealing ring groove 14: It is formed inside the first valve body 4 to provide space for the installation and rotation of the sealing ring 15, and to ensure the sealing of the valve stem 8 during rotation.
[0049] Sealing ring 15: It is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the valve stem 8 and rotatably connected inside the sealing ring groove 14.
