[0028] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0029] Please refer to Figures 1-4 The present application provides a technical solution: a flange plate with a blowdown hole, comprising two symmetrically distributed flange panels 100 and a gasket assembly 200 coaxially arranged between the two flange panels 100. Each of the two flange panels 100 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 110 arranged in a ring array and adapted for bolts to pass through. The gasket assembly 200 comprises a rubber outer liner 210, a stainless steel inner liner 220 and a blowdown pipe 230. The rubber outer liner 210 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 2110 adapted for bolts to pass through. Each of the positioning holes 2110 corresponds to one of the mounting holes 110. The stainless steel inner liner 220 is coaxially embedded in the rubber outer liner 210. The blowdown pipe 230 penetrates the bottom of the rubber outer liner 210 in the vertical direction. The top end of the blowdown pipe 230 is threadedly installed at the bottom of the stainless steel inner liner 220 and is in communication with the inner side of the stainless steel inner liner 220. The bottom end of the blowdown pipe 230 is provided with a first ball valve 2310.
[0030] Based on the structure of the above setting, the flange plate with a pollution hole is composed of a gasket assembly 200 and two flange panels 100, wherein the flange panel 100 serves as the main connecting component of the flange plate and is symmetrically distributed, a plurality of mounting holes 110 arranged in a ring array are provided on the flange panel 100 for the penetration of bolts, the two flange panels 100 are tightly connected together by bolts to realize reliable communication of the pipeline, ensure normal conveying of the medium, and the gasket assembly 200 is coaxially arranged between the two flange panels 100 to play a sealing and supporting role. In the gasket assembly 200, the rubber outer liner 210 has good elasticity and sealing property, the positioning holes 2110 provided on the rubber outer liner 210 correspond to the mounting holes 110 on the flange panel 100 one by one, facilitating the penetration of the bolts and ensuring the tight connection between the flange panel 100 and the gasket assembly 200. The stainless steel inner liner 220 is concentrically embedded in the rubber outer liner 210, which enhances the overall strength and stability of the gasket assembly 200 and can withstand the pressure and impact of the medium in the pipeline. The blowdown pipe 230 provides a channel for impurity discharge. When it is necessary to discharge impurities, the first ball valve 2310 is opened, and the impurities can be discharged through the blowdown pipe 230, avoiding the problems of limited installation space and leakage risk of the external blowdown valve. Specifically, the flange plate with a pollution hole realizes the function of impurity discharge without the need for additional installation of an external blowdown valve by arranging the blowdown pipe 230 in the gasket assembly 200. During the conveying of viscous medium in the pipeline, the impurities in the medium will gradually deposit at the low point of the pipeline. The blowdown pipe 230 of the flange plate is located at the bottom of the gasket assembly 200 and is connected to the inside of the stainless steel inner liner 220. When it is necessary to discharge impurities, the first ball valve 2310 assembled at the bottom end of the blowdown pipe 230 is only needed to be opened, and the deposited impurities can be discharged through the blowdown pipe 230, avoiding the problems of impurity accumulation affecting the normal flow of the medium in the pipeline and the conveying efficiency, and causing pipeline blockage. The flange plate with a pollution hole, by arranging the blowdown pipe 230 in the gasket assembly 200 and assembling the first ball valve 2310, does not need to additionally install an external blowdown valve, avoiding the problem of limited installation space of the external blowdown valve, reducing the risk of leakage, and at the same time, without the need for disassembly, the blowdown maintenance can be carried out, reducing the possibility of sealing surface wear and loss caused by frequent disassembly and cleaning of the traditional flange plate, thereby ensuring the normal flow of the medium in the pipeline, improving the conveying efficiency, reducing the production interruption, and improving the production efficiency and economic benefit of the enterprise.
[0031] Further, a flushing pipe 240 penetrating the top of the rubber outer liner 210 in the vertical direction is further included, the bottom end of the flushing pipe 240 is threadedly installed at the top of the stainless steel inner liner 220 and connected to the inside of the stainless steel inner liner 220, and the top end of the flushing pipe 240 is assembled with a second ball valve 2410.
[0032] Further, concentric circular lines 2120 are arranged on both sides of the rubber outer liner 210.
