Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of valve technology, and in particular relates to a retractable flange gate valve. Background Technology

[0002] In the development and utilization of liquids, gases, and particulate matter, pipelines are required for transportation, and valves are installed on the pipelines to control whether or not to discharge, and to control the flow rate of liquids, gases, and particulate matter. There are many types of valves on the market, such as shut-off valves, regulating valves, safety valves, and flange gate valves, etc., and different valves have different functions. The main function of flange gate valves is to cut off or connect the flow of media.

[0003] A search revealed a retractable flange gate valve in patent publication number CN218152580U, but it still has the following shortcomings in practical use:

[0004] 1. The retractable flange gate valve disclosed in the patent document with patent publication number CN218152580U has an extension section provided on the side wall of the valve body to realize the retractable installation of the valve body. However, the valve body is fixedly connected to the extension section, which is not convenient for disassembly and assembly, and thus brings inconvenience to the replacement of damaged extension sections.

[0005] 2. The telescopic flange gate valve disclosed in the patent document with patent publication number CN218152580U has an external extension joint on the valve body, which reduces the protective effect of the extension joint, makes the extension joint susceptible to damage from external influences, reduces the service life of the extension joint, and increases the replacement frequency of the extension joint.

[0006] To address these issues, we provide a retractable flange gate valve. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a retractable flange gate valve. By setting a telescopic component, it is convenient to disassemble and replace the damaged bellows. By setting a protective component, the bellows is wrapped and protected, thereby increasing its service life.

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0009] This utility model relates to a retractable flange gate valve, comprising a valve body, a telescopic assembly disposed on the lower part of the outer side wall of the valve body, the telescopic assembly including an external helical tube horizontally connected to the lower part of the outer side wall of the valve body, an internal helical ring threaded to the outer circumference of the external helical tube having a bellows connected to the end of the internal helical ring, the end of the bellows away from the internal helical ring having a connected external helical ring; a protective assembly disposed on the outer circumference of the bellows, the protective assembly including a fixed protective shell disposed outside the internal helical ring, a retaining ring disposed at the end of the fixed protective shell away from the internal helical ring, a movable protective shell disposed inside the fixed protective shell outside the internal helical ring, a connecting ring fixedly connected to the end of the movable protective shell near the internal helical ring, a return spring connected in a ring array on the side of the connecting ring and connected to the side of the retaining ring, and the internal thread of the movable protective shell away from the internal helical ring being threaded to the outer circumference of the external helical ring.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the connecting pipe connected to the lower part of the outer side wall of the valve body is away from the external threaded pipe, the end of the connecting pipe away from the valve body has a valve flange that is connected and fixed, the side of the valve flange has a sealing gasket, and the side of the valve flange away from the sealing gasket has a screw connected by an annular array thread.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that a sealing gasket is provided on the side of the limiting ring sleeved on the outer periphery of the external spiral tube, the internal spiral ring is in contact with the sealing gasket, and the side of the limiting ring is connected to one end of the fixed protective shell.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the outer periphery of the movable protective shell has a threaded inner thread tube, one end of which contacts the side of the retaining ring.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that a positioning ring is sleeved on the inner circumference of the internal spiral tube, and a sealing gasket provided on the side of the positioning ring contacts one end of the movable protective shell.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that a sealing gasket is provided on the side of the connecting flange sleeved at the other end of the outer periphery of the internal spiral tube, and a screw connected by an annular array thread is provided on the side of the connecting flange away from the sealing gasket.

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This utility model uses a telescopic component to detach the inner threaded ring from the outer threaded tube by rotating it clockwise, thus separating the valve body from the bellows; conversely, rotating it clockwise connects the new bellows to the valve body, thus facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the bellows and making it easier to replace damaged bellows.

[0017] 2. This utility model, by setting up a protective component, pulls the connecting flange, compresses the return spring, moves the connecting ring closer to the retaining ring, and extends the bellows. Conversely, when the compressed return spring extends, the bellows contracts, adjusting the distance between the connecting flange and the pipeline, thus achieving the retractable installation of the valve body. Furthermore, the fixed and movable protective shells always enclose the protective bellows, increasing the service life of the bellows and reducing the frequency of bellows replacement.
