Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Example 1: As shown in the attached document Figures 1-3 The valve body of the plug valve shown includes a valve body 1, which can be manufactured by casting. The valve body 1 includes a middle body 2, tubes 3 disposed at both ends of the middle body 2, and flanges 4 disposed at the outer ends of the two tubes 3. Multiple support protrusions can be provided on the outer circumferential surface of the flanges 4. The support protrusions have flat surfaces and are used to support the valve body 1 by placing them on the support surface. The middle body 2 and the tubes 3 are respectively provided with a plug cavity 5 and a flow channel 6. The plug cavity 5 has a circular cross-section and extends vertically along the valve body 1. The flow channel 6 extends horizontally along the valve body 1. The tubes 3 include a straight cylindrical part 7 and a buffer part 8 in the direction away from the middle body 2. The straight cylindrical part 7 has the same cross-section in the extension direction. The buffer part 8 has a conical shape, and the outer contour area of ​​the end of the buffer part 8 near the corresponding flange 4 is larger than the outer contour area of ​​the end away from the corresponding flange 4. The pipe 3 on the valve body 1 is configured as a straight cylinder 7 and a buffer section 8. The buffer section 8 is conical in shape. The junction of the straight cylinder 7 and the buffer section 8 is the weakest point. When the flanges 4 at both ends of the valve body 1 are under tension, the main stress on the valve body 1 is concentrated at the junction of the straight cylinder 7 and the buffer section 8. After long-term use, the valve body 1 will only undergo slight deformation at this part. The cross-section of the plug cavity 5 always remains perfectly round, which can ensure a reliable seal between the plug 14 and the plug cavity 5, greatly improving the service life of the plug valve.

[0026] As attached Figure 2 As shown, the straight cylindrical portion 7 and the buffer portion 8 of the tube body 3 have the same thickness. This design is not only easy to process, but also ensures that the junction between the straight cylindrical portion 7 and the buffer portion 8 is the weakest point, thereby achieving the buffering function.

[0027] As attached Figures 1-3 As shown, the outer wall of the straight cylindrical portion 7 of the tube body 3 is provided with multiple shrinkage ribs 10. In this embodiment, two shrinkage ribs 10 are provided on the outer wall of the straight cylindrical portion 7 of the tube body 3, respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the straight cylindrical portion 7. The shrinkage ribs 10 are protruding in shape, similar to reinforcing ribs, and are arranged in a planar manner, with one end extending to the middle body 2 and the other end extending to the buffer portion 8. This design can ensure the strength of the straight cylindrical portion 7 of the tube body 3, not only preventing deformation due to thermal expansion and contraction, but also preventing deformation of the end of the straight cylindrical portion 7 near the middle body 2 under external force.

[0028] Example 2: As shown in the attached document Figure 4The illustrated plug valve includes a valve body 1 as shown in Embodiment 1, and further includes a valve cover 11, a bottom cover 12, a valve stem 13, and a plug 14. The valve body 1 has openings at both its upper and lower ends. The valve cover 11 and the bottom cover 12 are respectively installed at the upper and lower ends of the valve body 1. Both the valve cover 11 and the bottom cover 12 can be installed on the valve body 1 by bolts or threads. The valve stem 13 passes through the valve cover 11 and extends into the plug cavity 5 to connect with the plug 14. A rectangular... The valve stem 13 has a rectangular protrusion at its lower end, which mates with the rectangular groove to achieve circumferential linkage between the valve stem 13 and the plug 14. The plug cavity 5 contains a bushing 15 that adheres to the outer wall of the plug 14 to form a sealing fit. A positioning groove can be provided on the inner wall of the plug cavity 5, and the bushing 15 is interference-fitted with the positioning groove. The fit between the bushing 15 and the valve body 1 is a conventional structure and will not be described in detail here. The plug 14 has a through-hole 16 corresponding to the flow channel 6. The plug valve uses a valve body 1 with a buffer structure, which can prevent deformation of the valve body 1 at the position corresponding to the plug cavity 5 due to stress concentration, thereby ensuring a reliable seal between the plug 14 and the plug cavity 5, significantly improving the service life of the plug valve. Furthermore, the valve body 1 is open at both the top and bottom. After the plug 14 is installed, the valve cover 11 and bottom cover 12 are installed at the top and bottom ends to press the plug 14 tightly, making assembly and disassembly very convenient.

[0029] The cross-section of the flow passage 16 is oblong, and the shape of the flow channel 6 is similar to that of the flow passage 16. This design not only ensures a large flow rate but also makes the medium flow more stable and improves the turbulence state of the medium.

[0030] As attached Figure 4 As shown, the valve cover 11 has a first annular flange 17 at its inner end, and the outer surface of the first annular flange 17 is tightly fitted with the inner surface of the upper opening of the valve body 1. The bottom cover 12 has a second annular flange 18 at its inner end, and the outer surface of the second annular flange 18 is tightly fitted with the inner surface of the lower opening of the valve body 1. Both the first annular flange 17 and the second annular flange 18 are circular. This design can realize the positioning of the valve cover 11 and the valve body 1, as well as the positioning of the bottom cover 12 and the valve body 1, which not only facilitates the installation of the valve cover 11 and the valve body 1, but also provides good installation stability.

[0031] As attached Figure 4 As shown, the outer wall of the stopcock 14 is provided with an upper limit step 19 and a lower limit step 20 near the upper and lower ends, respectively. The inner end of the first annular flange 17 is in a limiting engagement with the upper limit step 19, and the inner end of the second annular flange 18 is in a limiting engagement with the lower limit step 20. Furthermore, the inner circular surfaces of both the first annular flange 17 and the second annular flange 18 are in contact with the outer circular surface of the stopcock 14. After installing the valve cover 11 and the bottom cover 12, the stopcock 14 can be positioned and installed simultaneously, making disassembly and assembly very convenient.
