[0002] Ball valves are widely used in industrial pipelines, but their structural characteristics make them difficult to disassemble after installation. In particular, the operating space within the valve body cavity is limited, and the valve seat assembly is fitted to the valve body via a sealing ring. Disassembly requires maintaining the valve seat parallel to the valve body passage, and no universal tools are available. Current technology lacks specialized tools for efficient and reliable disassembly and assembly, resulting in low maintenance efficiency and operational difficulties. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a specialized disassembly tool that is simple in structure and easy to operate. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model addresses the aforementioned problems and overcomes the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a ball valve disassembly tool. This utility model is simple to operate, facilitates the disassembly of ball valves, and all parts are easy to manufacture, making it suitable for industries such as valve repair.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.
[0005] This utility model provides a ball valve disassembly tool, characterized in that it includes a pull rod, a slotted nut, an expansion sleeve, a deflecting pin, an expansion core, a fixing pin, and a fixing rod. The pull rod is provided with an upper pin hole that mates with the deflecting pin and a lower pin hole that mates with the fixing pin. Both the deflecting pin and the fixing pin can rotate after being inserted into the upper pin hole and the lower pin hole, respectively. The expansion core is hollow inside, and one end of the expansion core is provided with an open groove that mates with the deflecting pin. The other end of the expansion core transitions from a ring plane to a ring bevel. An external thread that mates with the internal thread of the slotted nut is provided on the outer surface of the ring plane and is threadedly connected to the slotted nut. The expansion sleeve fits around the expansion core. The lower end of the fixing rod mates with a flat shaft hole at the lower end of the valve body, and the upper end has a slotted structure and is rotatably connected to the pull rod through the fixing pin.
[0006] Furthermore, the outer ring of the expansion sleeve is a ring-plane structure, and the inner ring is a ring-plane transition ring-sloping structure that mates with the outer surface of the expansion core.
[0007] Furthermore, multiple elastic groove structures are provided at both ends of the expansion sleeve along its axial direction.
[0008] Furthermore, the elastic groove structures at both ends of the expansion sleeve are staggered.
[0009] Furthermore, two opening slots are provided along the axial direction of the expansion core, namely an inner opening slot closer to the expansion sleeve and an outer opening slot farther from the expansion sleeve. The opening directions of the inner opening slot and the outer opening slot are consistent. When the pull rod is rotated, the expansion core can be driven to move axially through the interaction between the actuating pin inserted into the upper pin hole and the side wall of the outer opening slot or the side wall of the inner opening slot.
[0010] Furthermore, the upper part of the pull rod has a knurled structure, and the lower part has a flat structure, with the lower pin hole located in the flat structure.

Detailed Implementation
[0025] Combined with appendix Figure 1-7 As shown, this embodiment provides a ball valve disassembly tool, including a pull rod 1, a slotted nut 2, an expansion sleeve 3, a moving pin 4, an expansion core 5, a fixing pin 6, and a fixing rod 7.
[0026] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, the upper part of the pull rod 1 has a knurled structure for easy gripping, and the lower part has a flat structure. The pull rod 1 is provided with an upper pin hole 8 that cooperates with the actuating pin 4 and a lower pin hole 9 that cooperates with the fixing pin 6. The lower pin hole 9 is located at the flat structure. The actuating pin 4 and the fixing pin 6 can both rotate after being inserted into the upper pin hole 8 and the lower pin hole 9.
[0027] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 4, the expansion core 5 is hollow inside, and one end of the expansion core 5 is provided with an open groove that mates with the actuating pin 4. In order to improve the operating range and facilitate the removal of the valve seat assembly 15, two open grooves are provided along the axial direction of the expansion core 5, namely an inner open groove 11 closer to the expansion sleeve 3 and an outer open groove 12 further away from the expansion sleeve 3. The opening directions of the inner open groove 11 and the outer open groove 12 are the same. When the pull rod 1 is rotated, the actuating pin 4 inserted into the upper pin hole 8 can drive the expansion core 5 to move axially through the interaction between it and the side wall of the outer open groove 12 or the side wall of the inner open groove 11. The other end of the expansion core 5 transitions from a ring plane to a ring bevel, and an external thread that mates with the internal thread of the slotted nut 2 is provided on the outer surface of the ring plane and is threadedly connected to the slotted nut 2.
[0028] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 7 and 8, due to the limited operating space inside the valve body 16, the slotted nut 2 has grooves 14 axially provided on each plane of its outer surface, which facilitates the rotation of the slotted nut 2 by inserting an operating tool into the groove 14.
[0029] like Figure 1 , 2As shown in Figure 5, the outer ring of the expansion sleeve 3 is a ring-plane structure, and the inner ring is a ring-plane transition ring inclined structure that mates with the outer surface of the expansion core 5. The expansion sleeve 3 fits around the outside of the expansion core 5. Multiple elastic grooves 10 are provided at both ends of the expansion sleeve 3 along its axial direction, and the elastic grooves 10 at both ends are staggered. When the expansion core 5 and the expansion sleeve 3 interact through the inclined surfaces, the elastic grooves 10 structure allows the tightening force of the outer surface of the expansion sleeve 3 to be evenly applied to the inner hole of the valve seat assembly 15, increasing the contact area of the mating surfaces.
[0030] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 6, the lower end of the fixing rod 7 is a guide cone surface, which cooperates with the flat shaft hole at the lower end of the valve body 16. The guide cone surface structure makes it easy for the fixing rod 7 to be installed into the flat shaft hole. After the fixing rod 7 is installed into the flat shaft hole, it serves as a fulcrum when the disassembly tool is operated.
[0031] The upper end of the fixed rod 7 has a slotted structure 13. The flat structure at the lower end of the pull rod 1 is inserted into the slotted structure 13 at the upper end of the fixed rod 7. The fixing pin 6 passes through the lower pin hole 9 at the lower end of the pull rod 1 and the pin hole provided at the slotted structure 13 of the fixed rod 7, so that the pull rod 1 and the fixed rod 7 are rotatably connected.
[0032] When using this tool, first assemble the expansion sleeve 3, expansion core 5, and slotted nut 2, then insert them into the inner hole of the valve seat assembly 15 along the middle cavity of the valve body 16. With the opening slot of the expansion core 5 facing upwards, tighten the slotted nut 2. At this time, due to the interaction of the inner and outer inclined surfaces, the outer circle of the expansion sleeve 3 and the expansion core 5 tightly fits with the inner hole of the valve seat assembly 15, thus tightening the expansion core 5 and the expansion sleeve 3 and fixing them to the valve seat assembly 15. Subsequently, assemble the pull rod 1 with the actuating pin 4, the fixing pin 6, and the fixing rod 7. Insert the lower end of the fixing rod 7 into the shaft hole at the lower end of the valve body 16, and engage the actuating pin 4 with the outer opening slot 12 of the expansion core 5.
[0033] Pull the lever 1 in the direction of valve seat assembly 15 removal to gradually remove the valve seat assembly 15. Sometimes, after the valve seat assembly 15 is partially removed, further operation is required due to limited operating space. Lift the combined assembly of lever 1, actuating pin 4, fixing pin 6, and fixing rod 7 upwards until the actuating pin 4 disengages from the outer opening groove 12 on the expansion core 5. Then move the actuating pin 4 to the inner opening groove 11 and pull the lever 1 in the same operating direction to completely remove the valve seat assembly 15.
[0034] It is understood that the above specific description of this utility model is only used to illustrate this utility model and is not limited to the technical solutions described in the embodiments of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to this utility model to achieve the same technical effect; as long as the use needs are met, they are all within the protection scope of this utility model.
