Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gate valve technology, specifically a gate valve that can display the valve plate opening status in real time. Background Technology
[0002] A non-rising stem gate valve is also called a rotary stem gate valve. The valve stem nut is located on the gate plate. Rotating the handwheel drives the valve stem to rotate, thereby raising the gate plate.
[0003] Because the stem of a non-sucking gate valve is not exposed outside the valve body, operators can only rely on experience or the locked state of the valve handle to confirm whether the valve is open or closed. For example, a non-sucking gate valve with publication number CN104747745A uses a positioning ring to alleviate the problem of excessive torque when turning the valve stem during the opening and closing of the gate valve. However, it is not easy to observe the opening and closing status of the gate valve, which can easily lead to operator errors, such as excessive turning of the valve handle causing deformation of the rubber gasket at the bottom of the valve and failure to spring back, or loosening of the valve screws. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the existing technical problems, this utility model provides a gate valve that can display the valve plate opening status in real time.
[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solution.
[0006] A gate valve capable of displaying the opening status of a valve plate in real time includes a drive valve stem that can rotate synchronously with the valve handle, a valve plate stem that is pulsatorically connected to the drive valve stem and can drive the valve plate to open and close, a transmission valve stem that is pulsatorically connected to the drive valve stem, a pointer disposed on the transmission valve stem and rotating synchronously with the transmission valve stem, and a dial covering the pointer.
[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model, it also includes a mechanical digital display screen disposed in the dial. The mechanical digital display screen is provided with a digital rotation module that is connected to the pointer, so that the pointer can drive the digital display screen to change when it rotates one revolution.
[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, the drive valve stem is provided with a first bevel gear, the valve plate valve stem is provided with a second bevel gear that meshes with the first bevel gear, and the transmission valve stem is provided with a third bevel gear that meshes with the first bevel gear.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the tooth ratio of the third bevel gear to the first bevel gear is 4:1, and the tooth ratio of the first bevel gear to the second bevel gear is 1:1.
[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, the dial is provided with a first rotation mark area located within the working range of the pointer and a second rotation mark area adjacent to the first rotation mark area.
[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, it also includes a protective shell, one end of the drive valve stem, the valve plate valve stem and the transmission valve stem all pass through the protective shell, and the dial is fixed on the protective shell.
[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, both the transmission valve stem and the valve plate valve stem are connected to the protective shell through a sleeve.
[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model, the dial is provided with a detachably connected rated rotating digital display.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the rising or falling status of the valve plate can be clearly understood through pointers, dials, and mechanical digital displays, avoiding operational errors and unnecessary losses. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this patent. To better illustrate this embodiment, some parts in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced, and do not represent the actual dimensions of the product.
[0021] It will be understood by those skilled in the art that certain well-known structures and their descriptions may be omitted in the accompanying drawings. The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0022] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2A gate valve capable of displaying the valve plate opening status in real time includes a drive valve stem 2 that rotates synchronously with a valve handle 1, and a valve plate stem 3 that is pulsatorically connected to the drive valve stem 2 and can drive the valve plate to open and close. It also includes a transmission valve stem 4 pulsatorically connected to the drive valve stem 2, a pointer 5 mounted on the transmission valve stem 4 and rotating synchronously with it, and a dial 6 covering the pointer 5. The combination of the pointer 5 and the dial 6 allows for a clear understanding of the valve plate's rising or falling status, preventing operational errors and unnecessary losses.
[0023] As a further improvement of this utility model, it also includes a mechanical digital display screen 7 disposed within the dial 6. The mechanical digital display screen 7 contains a digital rotation module that is drively connected to the pointer 5, so that each rotation of the pointer 5 causes a change in the number displayed on the mechanical digital display screen 7. Using the mechanical digital display screen 7 can effectively improve the accuracy of displaying the valve plate opening status; each rotation of the pointer 5 increments the number on the mechanical digital display screen 7 by one. Of course, electronic detection can also be used, but the cost is higher.
[0024] Of course, a high gear ratio can also be used to make the pointer 5 reach the limit position of the valve plate in one revolution. In this case, there is no need for a mechanical digital display screen 7, and the valve plate opening status can be displayed by the dial 6 alone. However, the pointer rotation amplitude of this solution is small, and it is not easy to see whether the limit position has been reached.
[0025] As a further improvement of this utility model, the drive valve stem 2 is provided with a first bevel gear 21, the valve plate valve stem 3 is provided with a second bevel gear 31 that meshes with the first bevel gear 21, and the transmission valve stem 4 is provided with a third bevel gear 41 that meshes with the first bevel gear 21. In this way, the first bevel gear 21 and the third bevel gear 41 will accurately drive the pointer 5 to rotate in each meshing, so that the display of the mechanical digital display screen 7 is accurate and reliable.
[0026] As a further improvement of this utility model, the tooth ratio of the third bevel gear 41 to the first bevel gear 21 is 4:1, and the tooth ratio of the first bevel gear 21 to the second bevel gear 31 is 1:1. This utility model uses a DN100 24-turn non-circular stem gate valve, that is, after turning the handle 24 times, the valve plate is in the limit position. When the tooth ratio is 4:1, the mechanical digital display screen 7 shows 6, which indicates that the valve plate has reached the limit position.
[0027] As a further improvement of this utility model, the dial 6 is provided with a first rotation indicator area 61 located within the working range of the pointer 5 and a second rotation indicator area 62 adjacent to the first rotation indicator area 61. Since the valve handle 1 can still rotate slightly after reaching its limit number of rotations, the first rotation indicator area 61 and the second rotation indicator area 62 are needed to determine whether further rotation is necessary. When the pointer 5 is in the first rotation indicator area 61, it is still within a reasonable rotation angle. When the pointer 5 approaches the second rotation indicator area 62, it indicates that the valve plate has reached its limit position. At this time, the operator should stop rotating the valve handle 1 to avoid over-tightening, which could damage or deform the internal parts of the valve, thereby improving the service life of the valve.
[0028] As a further improvement of this utility model, it also includes a protective shell 8. One end of the drive valve stem 2, the valve plate valve stem 3, and the transmission valve stem 4 all pass through the protective shell 8, and the dial 6 is fixed on the protective shell 8. This serves to protect and fix the internal transmission components of the valve and to prevent dust accumulation.
[0029] As a further improvement of this utility model, both the transmission valve stem 4 and the valve plate valve stem 3 are connected to the protective shell 8 through the sleeve 9.
[0030] As a further improvement of this utility model, the dial 6 is provided with a detachably connected rated rotation number plate 63. The rated rotation number on the display dial is determined according to the gear ratio of the selected bevel gear; according to the above gear ratio, the rated rotation number on the display dial of this gate valve is 6.
