Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of check valve technology, and in particular to a butterfly gate check valve. Background Technology
[0002] A check valve is a type of valve whose opening and closing element is a circular valve disc that operates by its own weight and the pressure of the medium, thereby preventing the backflow of the medium. The main function of a check valve is to prevent the backflow of the medium.
[0003] Chinese utility model patent application No. 202020736036.7—a double-valve check valve—includes a valve body with a cylindrical chamber. A double-valve diaphragm is disposed within the cylindrical chamber. The double-valve diaphragm includes a first butterfly plate, a second butterfly plate, a fixing pin, and a fixing block. The fixing block is disposed in the cross-section of the cylindrical chamber, with both ends fixed to the cylindrical chamber. The fixing pin is disposed on the fixing block. The first and second butterfly plates are semi-circular components, rotatably connected to the fixing pin, and forming a circular component that fits tightly against the inner wall of the cylindrical chamber. The first and second butterfly plates are respectively provided with a first rubber gasket and a second rubber gasket, ensuring a sealing fit between the circular component and the inner wall of the cylindrical chamber. This utility model employs a double-valve diaphragm structure, which eliminates the need for springs, resulting in low fluid resistance, sensitive operation, good sealing, rapid closure, and a long service life.
[0004] Existing butterfly check valves, and the double-disc check valve described in the aforementioned patent, require a certain thickness for the disc to achieve sufficient strength. While a thicker disc provides better strength, it significantly increases flow resistance. This increased flow resistance affects fluid flow efficiency and increases turbulence. Using this type of check valve in fan ducts results in poor airflow performance (airflow performance refers to the volume of air that the equipment can deliver per unit time), and the increased turbulence significantly increases pressure loss, thereby increasing the operating costs of the fan.
