Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of valves, and in particular to the structure of a planar thrust bearing box with bidirectional valve stem limiting. Background Technology

[0002] In butterfly valves, the valve stem may move back and forth during operation. To prevent this, valves typically use a snap ring or semi-ring structure to limit the valve stem movement. However, to accommodate the fit of various components, this structure usually requires a relatively large limiting dimension, resulting in a significant amount of stem movement. Furthermore, once the valve stem reaches the limiting position, the limiting groove on the valve stem will directly rub against the snap ring or semi-ring, quickly wearing them down to the point of unusability. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes a planar thrust bearing housing structure for bidirectional valve stem limiting. The first and second planar thrust bearings can respectively buffer and limit the movement in two directions on both sides of the push plate, thereby enabling the valve stem to achieve more precise limiting. Furthermore, the limiting plane friction of the valve stem is converted into ball friction of the thrust bearing, thus greatly reducing wear.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A structure for a bidirectional limiting planar thrust bearing housing for a valve stem includes a valve body, a valve stem rotatably mounted on the valve body, a valve plate mounted on the valve stem, a bracket, a fixing screw, a push plate, a first planar thrust bearing, a second planar thrust bearing, a first bearing housing plate, and a second bearing housing plate. The bracket is fixed to one side of the valve body, the first and second bearing housing plates are fixedly mounted on the bracket, the push plate is mounted on the fixing screw, and the first and second planar thrust bearings are respectively mounted on both sides of the push plate. The first planar thrust bearing is used to contact the first bearing housing plate, and the second planar thrust bearing is used to contact the second bearing housing plate.

[0006] In this structure, a fixing screw is installed on the valve stem, and a push plate is installed on the fixing screw. A first planar thrust bearing and a second planar thrust bearing are installed on the fixing screw, and the first and second planar thrust bearings are located on opposite sides of the push plate. The first planar thrust bearing is used to contact the first bearing housing plate, and the second planar thrust bearing is used to contact the second bearing housing plate. Therefore, the first and second planar thrust bearings can buffer and limit the movement in two directions on opposite sides of the push plate, thereby enabling the valve stem to achieve more precise limiting. Furthermore, the limiting plane friction of the valve stem is converted into ball friction of the thrust bearing, thus greatly reducing wear.

[0007] In summary, the first and second planar thrust bearings in this structure can buffer and limit the movement in two directions on both sides of the push plate, thereby enabling the valve stem to achieve more precise positioning. Furthermore, the limiting plane friction of the valve stem is converted into ball friction of the thrust bearing, which greatly reduces wear.

[0008] Optionally, a flat key is also included, wherein the push plate and the fixing screw are fitted together by the flat key, and the flat key is located between the push plate and the fixing screw.

[0009] The function of the key is to link and fix the screw and the push plate, so that the push plate can rotate together when the valve stem rotates.

[0010] Optionally, a partition plate is also included, which is disposed between the first bearing housing plate and the second bearing housing plate.

[0011] Optionally, it also includes mounting bolts and mounting nuts, wherein the first bearing housing plate and the second bearing housing plate are mounted to the bracket by the mounting bolts and mounting nuts.

[0012] Optionally, it also includes a mounting screw and a base plate, the base plate being mounted on one side of the second bearing housing plate via the mounting screw.

[0013] Optionally, a deep groove ball bearing is also included, which is disposed on the base plate, and one end of the fixing screw is engaged with the deep groove ball bearing.

[0014] The function of a deep groove ball bearing is to limit the up and down movement of the fixed screw.

[0015] Optionally, it also includes a limiting block, a first fixing nut, and a second fixing nut. The limiting block is disposed on the valve stem and is slidably engaged with the fixing screw. The first fixing nut and the second fixing nut are fixed on the fixing screw. The first fixing nut and the second fixing nut are located on the same side of the push plate, and the first fixing nut and the limiting block are located on opposite sides of the push plate.

[0016] Optionally, a mounting bearing is provided between the bracket and the valve stem.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the first planar thrust bearing and the second planar thrust bearing can respectively buffer and limit the movement in two directions on both sides of the push plate, thereby enabling the valve stem to obtain more precise limiting, and the limiting plane friction of the valve stem is also converted into the ball friction of the thrust bearing, thereby greatly reducing wear.

The first planar thrust bearing 1816 is used to contact the first bearing housing plate 13, and the second planar thrust bearing 18 is used to contact the second bearing housing plate 15. Therefore, the first planar thrust bearing 1816 and the second planar thrust bearing 18 can buffer and limit the movement in two directions on both sides of the push plate 17, thereby enabling the valve stem 3 to obtain more precise limiting. Furthermore, the limiting plane friction of the valve stem 3 is converted into the ball friction of the thrust bearing, thereby greatly reducing wear.

[0027] In summary, in this structure, the first planar thrust bearing 1816 and the second planar thrust bearing 18 can respectively buffer and limit the movement in two directions on both sides of the push plate 17, thereby enabling the valve stem 3 to obtain more precise limiting. Furthermore, the limiting plane friction of the valve stem 3 is also converted into the ball friction of the thrust bearing, thereby greatly reducing wear.

[0028] As attached Figure 1 and appendix Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a flat key 8, which is used to connect the push plate and the fixing screw 5. The flat key 8 is located between the push plate and the fixing screw 5.

[0029] The function of the key 8 is to link and fix the screw 5 and the push plate 17, so that the push plate 17 can rotate together when the valve stem 3 rotates.

[0030] As attached Figure 1 and appendix Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a partition 14, which is disposed between the first bearing housing plate 13 and the second bearing housing plate 15.

[0037] Combined with appendix Figure 2 The working process of this structure is described in detail as shown in the figure.

[0038] When the valve stem 3 moves to the left during rotation, the first fixing nut 9 on the fixing screw 5 will press the push plate 17 against the first planar thrust bearing 1816, which will then act as a limit. Furthermore, the flat key 8 on the fixing screw 5 will rotate along with the valve stem 3, causing the push plate 17 to rotate as well, thus rotating the first planar thrust bearing 1816. This converts planar hard friction into rolling friction of the planar thrust bearing 18, significantly reducing wear.

[0039] When the valve stem 3 moves to the right during rotation, the limiting block 7 presses the push plate 17 against the second planar thrust bearing 18, with the first planar thrust bearing 1816 acting as the limiting element. Furthermore, the flat key 8 on the fixing screw 5 causes the push plate 17 to rotate along with the valve stem 3, thereby rotating the second planar thrust bearing 18. This converts planar hard friction into rolling friction of the planar thrust bearing 18, significantly reducing wear.
