Detailed Implementation
[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a valve lock for a needle valve in a power plant, including a needle valve 1 and a lock frame 4. Both ends of the needle valve 1 are fixedly connected to pipes 3. A hollow handwheel 2 is provided on one side of the needle valve 1. Locking blocks 9 are provided symmetrically on the left and right side walls of the lock frame 4. Locking blocks 9 are provided with lock holes 11. A U-shaped locking rod 20 is inserted into the lock hole 11. The middle part of the U-shaped locking rod 20 passes through the hollow inside the hollow handwheel 2. A pressure plate 5 is hinged to one side of the locking frame 4, which is symmetrical to the locking block 9. A locking plate 8 is provided at the end of the pressure plate 5. A round hole is provided in the middle of the locking plate 8. A pair of locking rings 7 are provided on the outer wall of the locking block 9. The locking rings 7 cooperate with the locking plate 8 to lock the pressure plate 5. A rubber sheet 10 is provided on the inner wall of the locking frame 4. A rubber block 6 is provided on one side of the pressure plate 5, which is pressed against the needle valve 1.
[0022] The locking block 9 has a storage tube 15 inside. The bottom of the storage tube 15 penetrates the top wall of the lock hole 11. A locking pin 18 is inserted into one end of the storage tube 15 facing the lock hole 11. The upper and lower sides of the U-shaped locking rod 20 are provided with tooth grooves 19. The end of the locking pin 18 is provided with oblique teeth that cooperate with the tooth grooves 19 for locking.
[0023] Both the U-shaped locking rod 20 and the locking frame 4 are made of 304 stainless steel, which can withstand high temperatures above 120℃ and has a thickness greater than 8mm. The surface is polished to prevent dust accumulation. The rubber block 6 and the rubber sheet 10 are both at least 5mm thick, can withstand high temperatures of 150℃, and have an elasticity coefficient ≥5MPa. This increases the friction with the pipe 5 and avoids damage to the outer wall of the pipe at high temperatures.
[0024] In this embodiment, by placing the locking frame 4 outside the needle valve 1, and inserting a rubber block 6 between the pressure plate 5 and the needle valve 1, the pressure plate 5 rotates to place the locking plate 8 between the two locking rings 7. By pressing the pressure plate 5, the round hole on the locking plate 8 can be aligned with the locking ring 7. The pressure plate 5 is then locked with a padlock, which presses the rubber block 6 onto the needle valve 1. After locking both pressure plates 5, the locking frame 4 can be fixed.
[0025] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the end of the locking pin 18 away from the lock hole 11 is inserted into the interior of the storage tube 15, and the interior of the storage tube 15 is provided with an internal spring 17 that presses the locking pin 18 downward out of the storage tube 15.
[0026] After the lock frame 4 is fixed, insert both ends of the U-shaped lock rod 20 into the hollowed-out parts of the hollowed-out handwheel 2, and then insert the ends into the lock hole 11, as shown. Figure 5 As shown, by utilizing the engagement of the groove 19 with the helical teeth at the end of the locking pin 18, the internal spring 17 can be compressed upward by the helical teeth when the U-shaped locking rod 20 is inserted. This allows the U-shaped locking rod 20 to be inserted into the lock hole 11, and also locks the groove 19 with the helical teeth to prevent the U-shaped locking rod 20 from being pulled out.
[0027] Specifically, the side wall of the locking block 9 is provided with a plug hole 13, the side wall of the pressing plate 5 is provided with a pressing block 12 that is inserted into the plug hole 13, the top of the storage tube 15 is fixedly connected with a wedge block 14, and the bottom edge of the wedge block 14 is fixedly connected with an external spring 16 that pushes the wedge block 14 upward into the plug hole 13. The top of the wedge block 14 is a wedge-shaped inclined surface, and the upper and lower edges of the clamping plate 5 are provided with chamfers that cooperate with the wedge-shaped inclined surface. The length of the clamping block 12 is half the length of the insertion hole 13.
[0028] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, when the clamping plate 5 is locked on the lock frame 4, since the clamping block 12 is chamfered and the length of the clamping block 12 is half the length of the insertion hole 13, the clamping block 12 can be smoothly inserted into the insertion hole 13. While pressing the clamping plate 5, the chamfer on the clamping block 12 can also be used to cooperate with the inclined surface at the top of the wedge block 14 to press down the wedge block 14, so that the locking pin 18 can cooperate with the tooth groove 19. In addition, after the padlock is opened, rotating the clamping plate 5 will allow the clamping block 12 to be pulled out from the lock hole 11. Under the action of the external spring 16, the wedge block 14 is pushed upward. Since the top of the locking pin 18 is provided with a disc that limits the position inside the storage tube 15, when the storage tube 15 moves upward, it will drive the locking pin 18 to move upward as well, so that the U-shaped locking rod 20 can be easily pulled out, releasing the lock on the needle valve 1, and achieving the purpose of quickly locking and unlocking the needle valve 1.
[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
