Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of valve technology, and in particular to a cast two-piece ball valve. Background Technology

[0002] Ball valves, as a common type of valve, are widely used in industrial production and daily life. They achieve the cutoff and flow of media through the rotation of a ball, and have advantages such as simple structure, convenient operation, and good sealing performance. Among them, two-piece ball valves, due to their structure consisting of two main parts, have unique advantages in terms of ease of maintenance and parts replacement, and are widely used in many fields such as chemical, petroleum, natural gas, water treatment, and food processing.

[0003] However, existing two-piece ball valves still exhibit some problems in practical use. For example, in some traditional designs, the sealing structure between the ball and the valve seat is not stable enough under complex operating conditions, easily leading to media leakage and affecting the normal operation of the system. Furthermore, the connection and sealing design between the valve stem and the valve body are prone to wear under frequent operation, resulting in poor stem rotation or even seal failure. In addition, the assembly and disassembly of some two-piece ball valves are cumbersome, requiring significant time and manpower, which is detrimental to improving work efficiency.

[0015] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 The technical solution of this utility model has been clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0016] A cast two-piece ball valve includes a valve body 1 and a valve cover 2 connected by a valve body seal 6. The valve body 1 and valve cover 2 are fixedly connected by bolts and nuts. A valve seat 3 is installed inside both the valve body 1 and the valve cover 2. A valve ball 4 is placed between the two valve seats 3. The top of the valve ball 4 has an arc-shaped valve stem groove and a pressure relief hole 12. The inner cavity of the valve ball 4 communicates with the pressure relief hole 12 and the valve stem groove. The valve stem 5 has a stepped cylindrical structure. The valve ball 4 and valve stem 5 are made of 316L stainless steel. The bottom end of the valve stem 5... The valve stem 5 is placed in the valve stem groove. The lower shoulder surface of the valve stem 5 is sealed to the valve body 1 by the valve stem sealing gasket 10. A packing 7 is provided between the valve stem 5 and the valve body 1. A pressure sleeve 11, a disc spring 8, and a locking nut 9 are sequentially provided on the top of the packing 7. The pressure sleeve 11, the disc spring 8, and the locking nut 9 are sequentially fitted onto the valve stem 5. The locking nut 9 is threadedly connected to the valve stem 5. Handle positioning surfaces are symmetrically opened on both sides of the upper part of the valve stem 5. A handle fixing threaded hole is opened on the top surface of the valve stem 5.

[0017] First, install the valve seat 3 into the grooves on the inner side of the valve body 1 and the valve cover 2 respectively. Then, install the valve stem seal 10 from top to bottom along the valve stem 5 onto the upper end face of the lower shoulder of the valve stem 5. The valve stem 5 is then inserted into the inner cavity of the valve body 1 from bottom to top. After adjusting the correct direction of the valve stem 5, align the valve stem groove at the upper end of the valve ball 4 with the protrusion at the lower end of the valve stem 5. Install the valve ball 4 into the valve body 1. Then, install the valve body seal 6 into the groove at the end face of the valve body 1. After aligning the holes of the valve cover 2 and the valve body 1, connect them together by tightening bolts and nuts to ensure that the valve body seal 6 is compressed to form a good seal and prevent media leakage.

[0018] Place the packing 7 and pressure sleeve 11 onto the valve stem 5 from bottom to top, and insert them into the sealing groove at the upper end of the valve body 1. Install the disc spring 8 on the pressure sleeve 11 in a double-overlapping manner. Tighten the lock nut 9 to the valve stem 5 to the specified torque to complete the overall valve assembly. Subsequently, according to the opening and closing methods required by different actual working conditions, corresponding actuators can be added to the existing valve body 1 and valve stem 5 to drive the valve stem 5 to rotate and achieve the opening and closing function.
