Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline valve technology, and in particular to a valve insulation sleeve made of mesoporous material. Background Technology
[0002] Pipeline valves are used to control the flow of various types of fluids, including air, water, steam, corrosive media, slurry, oil, liquid metals, and radioactive media. They are widely used as crucial components in pipeline transportation. Unlike pipeline insulation, valves have their own interfaces and connections to the pipeline, thus posing significant risks of leakage.
[0003] On the one hand, current valve insulation sleeves do not have a function to indicate leakage. If leakage needs to be checked, disassembly and reassembly are required, which limits their use. On the other hand, most insulation sleeves directly use materials such as fiberglass felt and cotton felt as the main insulation materials. These materials have disadvantages such as weak insulation performance, water absorption or flammability. This may lead to water absorption during use, resulting in rapid performance degradation or combustion when exposed to fire. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a valve insulation sleeve made of mesoporous material, which solves the defects of existing valve insulation sleeves that do not have a leakage warning function and may absorb water during use, leading to rapid performance degradation or combustion when exposed to fire.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a valve insulation sleeve made of mesoporous material, comprising an insulation sleeve; an installation groove is provided inside the top of the insulation sleeve, and an auxiliary structure is provided on one side of the insulation sleeve; the auxiliary structure includes an insulation layer, an insulation layer is installed on one side of the insulation sleeve, a connecting layer is installed on one side of the insulation layer, a color-changing layer is installed on one side of the connecting layer, and a transparent sealing strip is installed on the top of the color-changing layer.
[0006] Preferably, the insulation layer is made of mesoporous thermal insulation felt.
[0007] Preferably, the color-changing layer is made of a color-changing material and has a porous structure.
[0008] Preferably, the insulation layer is provided in two sets, and the two sets of insulation layers are symmetrically distributed.
[0009] Preferably, the top end of the insulation sleeve is provided with a connecting structure, the connecting structure including a through hole, the through hole being opened inside the top end of the insulation sleeve, a fixing bolt being inserted inside the through hole, a gasket being sleeved on the outer side of one end of the fixing bolt, and a nut being installed on the outer side of one end of the fixing bolt.
[0010] Preferably, the outer side of the fixing bolt is provided with external threads, and the inner side of the nut is provided with internal threads, forming a threaded connection between the fixing bolt and the nut.
[0011] Preferably, the inner diameter of the through hole is larger than the outer diameter of the fixing bolt, and the fixing bolt and the through hole form an insertion structure.
[0012] Preferably, there are two sets of fixing bolts, which are symmetrically distributed at the upper and lower ends of the insulation sleeve.
[0013] Preferably, the inner diameter of the gasket is larger than the outer diameter of the fixing bolt, and the gasket and the fixing bolt form a sleeve connection.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] By incorporating auxiliary structures, the insulation layer is made of mesoporous thermal insulation felt to enhance the performance of the insulation jacket during use. Due to the presence of numerous mesopores, mesoporous thermal insulation felt has a very low thermal conductivity and excellent insulation performance. Furthermore, its hydrophobic properties prevent the insulation jacket from absorbing moisture from rainwater, condensation, or other internal and external sources, thus eliminating the problem of performance degradation over long-term use. Therefore, mesoporous thermal insulation felt possesses both fireproof and waterproof properties as well as extremely high thermal insulation performance, thereby fulfilling the functions of fireproofing, waterproofing, and thermal insulation.
[0016] Furthermore, the addition of a color-changing layer can indicate leakage through the simplest signal: color change. The color-changing layer is located at the innermost part, making it easy to directly contact the leaking liquid. The upper edge extends to the upper connection point of the outer shell, and the color change can be observed through the use of a transparent sealing strip. Structurally, it has a porous structure that allows for liquid phase diffusion, which also provides a certain degree of heat preservation. A connecting layer is used to isolate the insulation layer and the color-changing layer, which not only protects the insulation layer and extends its lifespan, but also facilitates the maintenance, disassembly, and replacement of the color-changing layer.
[0017] By incorporating a connection structure, the insulation sleeve is designed for easier installation. The use of a gasket and nut allows for quick and easy installation of the insulation sleeve on the outside of the valve. Furthermore, the gasket increases friction, protecting the surface of the connected parts from damage by the bolt head and dispersing the pressure from the bolt head, thus improving the effectiveness of the fixing bolt.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.
[0025] This utility model embodiment provides a valve insulation sleeve made of mesoporous material, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes an insulation sleeve 1; an installation groove 3 is provided inside the top of the insulation sleeve 1, and an auxiliary structure 2 is provided on one side of the insulation sleeve 1;
[0026] The top end of the insulation sleeve 1 is provided with a connecting structure 4, which includes a through hole 403. The through hole 403 is opened inside the top end of the insulation sleeve 1. A fixing bolt 401 is inserted into the through hole 403. A gasket 402 is sleeved on the outer side of one end of the fixing bolt 401. A nut 404 is installed on the outer side of one end of the fixing bolt 401. The outer side of the fixing bolt 401 is provided with external threads, and the inner side of the nut 404 is provided with internal threads. The fixing bolt 401 and the nut 404 form a threaded connection. The inner diameter of the through hole 403 is larger than the outer diameter of the fixing bolt 401. The fixing bolt 401 and the through hole 403 form an insertion structure. There are two sets of fixing bolts 401. The two sets of fixing bolts 401 are symmetrically distributed at the upper and lower ends of the insulation sleeve 1. The inner diameter of the gasket 402 is larger than the outer diameter of the fixing bolt 401. The gasket 402 and the fixing bolt 401 form a sleeved connection.
[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-3 and Figure 4As shown: When using the insulation sleeve 1, install the insulation sleeve 1 on the outside of the valve. After installation, put the gasket 402 on the outside of the fixing bolt 401. After the gasket is put on, insert one end of the fixing bolt 401 through the through hole 403. After the through hole is inserted, install the nut 404 on the outside of the fixing bolt 401, thus completing the installation of the insulation sleeve 1. This makes the installation of the insulation sleeve 1 more convenient. In addition, the use of the gasket 402 increases the friction to protect the surface of the connected parts from being crushed by the bolt head and disperses the pressure brought by the bolt head, so that the fixing bolt 401 performs better when used.
[0028] The auxiliary structure 2 includes an insulation layer 201. An insulation layer 201 is installed on one side of the insulation sleeve 1. A connecting layer 202 is installed on one side of the insulation layer 201. A color-changing layer 203 is installed on one side of the connecting layer 202. A transparent sealing strip 204 is installed on the top of the color-changing layer 203. The insulation layer 201 is made of mesoporous insulation felt, and the color-changing layer 203 is made of color-changing material. The structure is a porous structure. There are two sets of insulation layers 201, and the two sets of insulation layers 201 are symmetrically distributed.
[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-2 and Figure 5 As shown: The insulation layer 201 is made of mesoporous insulation felt. Due to the presence of numerous mesopores, the mesoporous insulation felt has a very low thermal conductivity and excellent insulation performance. At the same time, due to the hydrophobic properties of the mesoporous insulation felt, the insulation jacket 1 will not absorb moisture from rainwater, condensate, or other internal and external sources during use, thus preventing the problem of performance degradation of the insulation jacket 1 over long-term use. The mesoporous insulation felt has both fireproof and waterproof properties and extremely high thermal insulation performance, thus completing the work of fireproofing, waterproofing, thermal insulation, and heat insulation. The addition of the color-changing layer 203 can indicate leakage through the simplest signal of color change. The color-changing layer 203 is located at the innermost part, making it easy to directly contact the leaking liquid. The upper edge extends to the upper connection of the outer shell, and the color change can be observed through the transparent sealing strip 204. Structurally, it has a porous structure that allows for liquid phase diffusion, and while allowing liquid phase diffusion, it also has a certain insulation capacity. The connecting layer 202 is used to isolate the insulation layer 201 and the color-changing layer 203, which not only protects the insulation layer 201 and extends its lifespan, but also facilitates the maintenance, disassembly, and replacement of the color-changing layer 203.
[0030] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
