[0002] In industrial production processes such as chemical, pharmaceutical, and food processing, it is often necessary to transport and control various fluids with different properties, and to prevent mixing between different fluids to avoid affecting product quality, triggering chemical reactions, or even causing safety accidents.

[0003] Traditional butterfly valves have some shortcomings in use. Their sealing performance is limited, and wear can easily occur between the valve plate and the valve seat during long-term use, leading to seal failure and leakage and mixing of different fluids, which affects the stability of the butterfly valve. To address these issues, a pneumatically welded anti-mixing butterfly valve has been proposed for improvement and upgrading. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a pneumatically welded anti-mixing butterfly valve to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the following technical solution is provided: a pneumatic welding anti-mixing butterfly valve, including a pneumatic actuator, a cylinder fixedly installed below the pneumatic actuator, a valve body fixedly installed below the cylinder, welding ports fixedly installed at both ends of the valve body, an annular valve seat provided inside the valve body, a valve plate rotatably installed inside the annular valve seat, a first sealing packing provided between the flange of the outer wall of the valve plate and the annular valve seat, a valve stem fixedly installed inside the valve plate, one end of the valve stem passing through the inside of the valve body and the extended end connected to the inside of the cylinder, a piston cylinder slidably installed inside the cylinder, a spring sleeved on the outer wall of the piston cylinder, a sealing ring provided between the valve body and the valve stem, and a second sealing packing provided above the sealing ring.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the valve stem passes through the valve body and the valve plate, the valve plate adopts a double eccentric structure design, the first sealing packing is made of materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene, and the valve plate is adapted to the annular valve seat.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] 1. This utility model device includes a valve plate, a first sealing packing, a second sealing packing, a sealing ring, and a valve stem. By adopting a double eccentric structure for the valve plate, the valve first disengages from the annular valve seat before rotating when opening, reducing friction and wear.

The valve stem uses flexible graphite material and works with the sealing ring to prevent fluid leakage from the valve stem, further ensuring the anti-mixing effect. The tight fit between the valve plate and the valve seat, as well as the excellent performance of the sealing components, ensures that the valve maintains a reliable seal during long-term use, reducing the possibility of fluid leakage.

[0013] Meanwhile, the valve body adopts an integrated welded structure with welding ports at both ends for welding connection with pipelines.

[0021] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a pneumatic welding anti-mixing butterfly valve, including a pneumatic actuator 1, a cylinder 2 fixedly installed below the pneumatic actuator 1, a valve body 3 fixedly installed below the cylinder 2, welding ports 6 fixedly installed at both ends of the valve body 3, an annular valve seat provided inside the valve body 3, a valve plate 11 rotatably installed inside the annular valve seat, a first sealing packing 12 provided between the flange of the outer wall of the valve plate 11 and the annular valve seat, a valve stem 7 fixedly installed inside the valve plate 11, one end of the valve stem 7 passing through the inside of the valve body 3 and the extended end connected to the inside of the cylinder 2, a piston cylinder 8 slidably provided inside the cylinder 2, a spring 9 sleeved on the outer wall of the piston cylinder 8, a sealing ring 13 provided between the valve body 3 and the valve stem 7, and a second sealing packing 14 provided above the sealing ring 13.

[0023] like Figures 3 to 4 As shown, the valve stem 7 passes through the valve body 3 and the valve plate 11. The valve plate 11 adopts a double eccentric structure design. The first sealing packing 12 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene and other materials. The valve plate 11 is adapted to the annular valve seat. The valve body 3 is located below the cylinder 2 and has a sealing groove 15 inside. The sealing ring 13 is fixedly installed inside the sealing groove 15. The second sealing packing 14 is made of flexible graphite material. The valve stem 7 and the valve body 3 are adapted to each other. One end of the spring 9 is set at the bottom of the cylinder 2 and the other end is connected to the piston cylinder 8. Guide rods are symmetrically arranged at the upper end of the piston cylinder 8. Guide grooves are opened inside the piston cylinder 8.

[0024] The first sealing packing 12, made of high-performance polytetrafluoroethylene and other materials, is installed on the sealing flange of the valve plate 11. It possesses good elasticity, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance, forming a reliable seal between the valve plate 11 and the valve seat. The second sealing packing 14, made of flexible graphite, is located at the connection between the valve body 3 and the valve stem 7. It has good self-lubricating properties, reducing friction on the valve stem 7, and is highly flexible, adapting to frequent rotation of the valve stem 7. This prevents fluid leakage from the valve stem 7, ensuring the valve's sealing and anti-mixing effects. Furthermore, the valve stem 7 is made of high-strength alloy steel with a wear-resistant surface treatment, capable of withstanding significant torque and pressure. This ensures that under the drive of the pneumatic actuator 1, the valve stem 7 can stably and reliably rotate the valve plate 11. The pneumatic actuator 1 includes components such as a cylinder 2, piston cylinder 8, guide rod, and spring 9.

[0025] A limiting rod 71 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the valve stem 7 and the limiting rod 71 is slidably connected inside the guide groove. A sliding sleeve 10 is fixedly installed inside the valve body 3 at the sliding connection of the valve stem 7. A connector 4 is symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the valve body 3 and a nut 5 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the connector 4.

[0026] By setting the sliding sleeve 10, the valve stem 7 and valve body 3 are relatively stable when rotating. The cylinder 2 is provided with a piston cylinder 8, which divides the inside of the cylinder 2 into two air chambers. When compressed air is introduced into one of the air chambers, the piston cylinder 8 moves under the action of air pressure. By using the limit rod 71 to slide on the guide groove, it causes the valve stem 7 to rotate, thereby realizing the opening or closing of the valve plate 11.

[0027] The working principle and process of this utility model are as follows: First, clean the welded port 6 of the pipeline to remove oil, rust, and other impurities, ensuring the port is smooth and clean. Place the valve in the installation position, ensuring that the welded ports 6 on both sides of the valve body 3 are precisely aligned with the pipeline port. Weld using appropriate processes such as argon arc welding. After the pipeline and welded port 6 are sealed, the piston cylinder 8 inside the cylinder 2 of the pneumatic actuator 1 divides the air chambers within the cylinder 2. When compressed air is introduced into one of the air chambers, the piston cylinder 8 moves under air pressure, compressing the spring 9. This, in turn, causes the limit rod 71 to move within the guide groove of the valve stem 7, thereby rotating the valve stem 7 and controlling the opening, closing, or adjustment of the valve plate 11. By precisely controlling the compressed air pressure and on / off time, the opening degree of the valve plate 11 can be accurately adjusted, thereby achieving flexible control of fluid flow. At the same time, the valve body 3 adopts an integrated welded structure, forming a seamless connection with the pipeline after welding, eliminating leakage problems at the connection. The valve plate 11 adopts a double eccentric structure, which first disengages from the annular valve seat before rotating when the valve is opened, reducing friction and wear. When closed, the sealing flange on the edge of the valve plate 11 fits tightly with the precision-machined valve seat, and together with the polytetrafluoroethylene material on the outside of the valve plate 11, it achieves effective sealing and prevents fluid leakage and mixing. The valve stem 7 is made of flexible graphite material and works with the sealing ring 13 to prevent fluid leakage from the valve stem 7, further ensuring the anti-mixing effect.
