Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of valve technology, specifically relating to a cage-type single-seat regulating valve with good sealing performance. Background Technology
[0002] Cage-type single-seat control valves are widely used in applications requiring high reliability and shut-off performance, such as high-temperature and high-pressure process pipelines in chemical, power, papermaking, food, metallurgy, and mining industries. Due to their compact structure, large output force, and compatibility with various actuators, including pneumatic and electric actuators, they are widely used in various industrial sectors.
[0003] The existing cage-type single-seat control valve uses a sealing ring (soft seal) between the valve core, valve seat, and sleeve to achieve sealing. When used in high-temperature environments, the gap change of the sealing ring due to thermal expansion and contraction causes the dynamic sealing performance of the cage-type single-seat control valve to be unreliable under high-temperature conditions, resulting in a low leakage level. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology and to provide a cage-type single-seat regulating valve with good sealing performance, which can effectively improve the dynamic sealing performance under high temperature conditions.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A cage-type single-seat regulating valve with good sealing performance includes a valve body, a valve cover disposed on the valve body, a pneumatic actuator and a valve core assembly disposed on the valve cover, the valve core assembly including a valve stem that is linked to the pneumatic actuator, a valve core disposed on the valve stem, a valve seat disposed in the valve body, and a sleeve disposed on the valve seat, wherein a metal sealing ring and a guide sealing ring are sequentially stacked inside the sleeve, an elastic expansion ring is disposed inside the metal sealing ring, the metal sealing ring is sealed with the sleeve, the valve seat and the valve core, and the guide sealing ring is sealed with the sleeve and the valve core.
[0006] In some embodiments, the metal sealing ring has a cavity for accommodating an elastic expansion ring, and the outer wall of the metal sealing ring is provided with an annular opening communicating with the cavity.
[0007] In some embodiments, the annular opening of the metal sealing ring is oriented toward the valve seat.
[0008] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the metal sealing ring is U-shaped or C-shaped.
[0009] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the sleeve is provided with positioning grooves that match the metal sealing ring and the guide sealing ring, and the metal sealing ring and the guide sealing ring are engaged in the positioning grooves.
[0010] In some embodiments, a sealing gasket is provided between the valve body and the valve seat.
[0011] In some embodiments, the valve cover is provided with a convex ring that cooperates with the sleeve and the valve body, and a sealing groove that cooperates with the convex ring is formed between the sleeve and the valve body, and the convex ring is engaged in the sealing groove.
[0012] In some embodiments, a sealing ring is provided in the sealing groove to seal with the sleeve, valve body, and convex ring.
[0013] In some embodiments, a double-ended bolt is connected between the valve cover and the valve body, and a nut for tightening the valve cover is provided on the double-ended bolt.
[0014] In some embodiments, a sealing gasket is provided between the valve cover and the valve body at the location corresponding to the double-ended bolt, thereby forming a sealing fit between the sealing gasket and the valve cover, valve body, and double-ended bolt.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the metal sealing ring can maintain structural stability in high-temperature environments. Through continuous clamping force, the metal sealing ring effectively compensates for gap changes caused by thermal expansion and contraction. The built-in elastic tightening ring can provide continuous elasticity compensation for the metal sealing ring to adapt to different pressure changes, ensuring dynamic sealing performance under high-temperature conditions.

Furthermore, the guide sealing ring (soft seal) and the metal sealing ring (hard seal) form a composite sealing structure. Through the synergistic effect of soft and hard seals, the leakage risk of this single-seat regulating valve is further reduced. Attached Figure Description
