Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gate valve technology, specifically a wafer-type knife gate valve. Background Technology
[0002] The wafer-type knife gate valve is a compact valve with rapid opening and closing, widely used in industries such as mining, power, chemical, and sewage treatment. It is suitable for shut-off control of media containing particles, fibers, or viscous substances. The valve is directly clamped between two pipe flanges by bolts, eliminating the need for flange short pipes. It requires little installation space and is suitable for compact working conditions. It supports multiple drive methods such as manual, electric, and pneumatic to meet different automation needs.
[0003] In existing wafer-type knife gate valves, the valve plate and valve body rely entirely on sliding friction. This results in high sliding friction resistance of the gate, making opening and closing difficult. Furthermore, the existing wafer-type knife gate valves are complex to disassemble and assemble, leading to maintenance difficulties. To reduce the friction between the valve plate and valve body, and to reduce the difficulty of disassembling and assembling the valve body, we propose a wafer-type knife gate valve.

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.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a technical solution: a wafer-type knife gate valve, including a valve body 1, with two sets of auxiliary components 6 installed inside the valve body 1. Each auxiliary component 6 includes a first mounting plate 15. Both the valve body 1 and the first mounting plate 15 have several threaded holes. The first mounting plate 15 is fixedly mounted on the valve body 1 by several small bolts 19. A second mounting plate 14 is provided on the side of the first mounting plate 15. Several protrusions 16 are fixedly mounted on the second mounting plate 14. Several recesses 17 are provided on the first mounting plate 15. An auxiliary ball 18 is installed between the valve body 1 and the second mounting plate 14. A valve plate 3 is slidably installed inside the valve body 1. The auxiliary ball 18 cooperates with the valve plate 3. A connecting flange is integrally installed on the top of the valve body 1. An upper cover plate 5 is provided on the top of the valve body 1. The upper cover plate 5 and the connecting flange are fixedly connected by several large bolts and large nuts. A mounting bracket 12 is rotatably installed on the upper cover plate 5. A handwheel 13 is fixedly installed on the mounting bracket 12. A threaded rod 4 passes through the handwheel 13. The threaded rod 4 is threadedly connected to the mounting bracket 12. The threaded rod 4 is fixedly connected to the valve plate 3.
[0025] Before use, first install the square sealing ring 20, sealing sleeve 21 and semi-arc sealing gasket 22 into the valve body 1. Then, slide the valve plate 3 into the valve body 1. Next, with the cooperation of the convex post 16 and the concave hole 17, assemble the two sets of auxiliary components 6. Then, install the two sets of auxiliary components 6 between the valve body 1 and the valve plate 3. Then, use small bolts 19 to fix the first mounting plate 15 to the valve body 1. At this time, the auxiliary ball 18 between the first mounting plate 15 and the second mounting plate 14 contacts the valve plate 3, reducing the friction between the valve plate 3 and the valve body 1. Then, install the two sets of rubber sealing rings onto the integrated connecting flange on the top of the valve body 1. Then, use several large bolts and large nuts to fix the upper cover plate 5 onto the valve body 1. Then, thread the threaded rod 4 on the valve plate 3 to the mounting bracket 12. Then, rotate the mounting bracket 12 to the upper cover plate 5. Then, pass the handwheel 13 through the threaded rod 4 and fix it to the mounting bracket 12. At this point, the valve installation is complete.
[0026] The valve body 1 has a first groove 9, a second groove 10 and a third groove 11. A square sealing ring 20 is installed in the first groove 9, a sealing sleeve 21 is installed in the second groove 10 and a semi-circular sealing gasket 22 is installed in the third groove 11. Two sets of rubber sealing rings are installed between the upper cover plate 5 and the valve body 1. The valve body 1 has an integrally installed mounting flange 2 on both the front and rear sides, and the mounting flange 2 has several mounting holes.
[0027] In use, the mounting bracket 12 is rotated by turning the handwheel 13. Under the constraint of the upper cover plate 5 and the action of the valve body 1, the mounting bracket 12 drives the valve plate 3 and the threaded rod 4 to move up and down. At the same time, the auxiliary ball 18 between the second mounting plate 14 and the second mounting plate 14 will contact the valve plate 3, thereby reducing the friction between the valve plate 3 and the valve body 1, and facilitating the opening and closing of the valve. Among them, the square sealing ring 20 and the sealing sleeve 21 are used to ensure the sealing between the valve body 1 and the valve plate 3, the semi-arc sealing gasket 22 is used to ensure the sealing of the front and rear ends of the valve when the valve is closed, and the two sets of rubber sealing rings between the upper cover plate 5 and the valve body 1 are used to ensure the sealing between the upper cover plate 5 and the valve body 1 and between the upper cover plate 5 and the mounting bracket 12.
[0028] Working principle: Before use, first install the square sealing ring 20, sealing sleeve 21 and semi-arc sealing gasket 22 into the valve body 1. Then, slide the valve plate 3 into the valve body 1. Next, with the cooperation of the convex post 16 and the concave hole 17, assemble the two sets of auxiliary components 6. Then, install the two sets of auxiliary components 6 between the valve body 1 and the valve plate 3. Then, fix the first mounting plate 15 to the valve body 1 with small bolts 19. At this time, the auxiliary ball 18 between the first mounting plate 15 and the second mounting plate 14 contacts the valve plate 3, reducing the friction between the valve plate 3 and the valve body 1. Then, install the two sets of rubber sealing rings onto the integrated connecting flange on the top of the valve body 1. Then, fix the upper cover plate 5 to the valve body 1 with several large bolts and large nuts. Then, thread the threaded rod 4 on the valve plate 3 to the mounting bracket 12. Then, rotate the mounting bracket 12 to the upper cover plate 5. Then, pass the handwheel 13 through the threaded rod 4 and fix it to the mounting bracket 12. At this point, the valve installation is complete.
[0029] In use, the mounting bracket 12 is rotated by turning the handwheel 13. Under the constraint of the upper cover plate 5 and the action of the valve body 1, the mounting bracket 12 drives the valve plate 3 and the threaded rod 4 to move up and down. At the same time, the auxiliary ball 18 between the second mounting plate 14 and the second mounting plate 14 will contact the valve plate 3, thereby reducing the friction between the valve plate 3 and the valve body 1, and facilitating the opening and closing of the valve. Among them, the square sealing ring 20 and the sealing sleeve 21 are used to ensure the sealing between the valve body 1 and the valve plate 3, the semi-arc sealing gasket 22 is used to ensure the sealing of the front and rear ends of the valve when the valve is closed, and the two sets of rubber sealing rings between the upper cover plate 5 and the valve body 1 are used to ensure the sealing between the upper cover plate 5 and the valve body 1 and between the upper cover plate 5 and the mounting bracket 12.
[0030] This device not only reduces the friction between the valve plate 3 and the valve body 1, but also makes disassembly and rotation simple, facilitating subsequent maintenance.
