Description

Modified model machinery Sealing mechanism
Technical field
The present invention relates to the controlling component of Fluid valve, particularly a kind of modified model machinery Sealing mechanism.
Background technique
Like Fig. 1, traditional magnetic is encrypted valve, comprises valve body 1', valve gap 2', open-shut device 4', valve rod 5' and opens key 6'; Said valve gap 2' is located at valve body 1' top, and said valve body 1' part vertically offers the fluid passage that connects medium, and said fluid passage has water intake 11' and water outlet 12'; Said open-shut device 4' can upper and lower up-down be located in the valve body 1' between the said water intake 11' and water outlet 12', said valve rod 5' one end passes valve gap 2' and is threaded with open-shut device 4', also is provided with the magnetic Sealing mechanism that restriction valve rod 5' rotates on the said valve gap 2'; Said unlatching key 6' is provided with the release mechanism that is used to remove the magnetic Sealing mechanism, and said magnetic Sealing mechanism comprises bonnet 3', and said bonnet 3' is sheathed on valve gap 2' top; And is fixedly connected with the free end of valve rod 5' through bearing pin 51', have the last lockhole 31' and the following lockhole 21' of mutual corresponding setting on the end face wall body between said bonnet 3' and the bottom flange 2', be provided with lower magnetic steel 7' between lockhole 31' and the following lockhole 21' on said; The below that is positioned at lower magnetic steel 7' in the said lockhole 21' down also is provided with Returnning spring 8', and said release mechanism is gone up and the corresponding upper magnetic steel 61' in said lower magnetic steel 7' position for being located at unlatching key 6', and upper magnetic steel 61' and the identical setting of the corresponding end polarity of lower magnetic steel 7'; Above-mentioned magnetic Locked valve can guarantee that the personal management opens and closes, and limit others is illegally opened, when needing Open valve; The unlatching key of carrying is sheathed on valve gap top, because of upper magnetic steel and the magnetic pole of opening in the key of the lower magnetic steel between bonnet and the bottom flange is homopolarity, under the effect that the magnetic homopolarity repels mutually; Lower magnetic steel produces in the following lockhole of the complete retraction bottom flange of pressure spring, makes bonnet to rotate with opening the key turn, drives valve rod then and rotates the open and close that realize valve body; Do not work when packing up when opening key; Lower magnetic steel between bonnet and the bottom flange is stuck on bottom flange with bonnet, it can not be rotated, though this magnetic cipher mode is simple and convenient with other opener; But because the general opener in the top of bonnet still can clamping; Do not work when being packed up when opening key, some lawless persons understand misidentification for this reason magnetic to encrypt valve be not magnetic common valve, be just can revolve the valve that opens through general opener; When valve is illegally opened; Because bonnet is fixed on the bottom flange, can not rotate with general opener, be easy to damage because of the malice unlatching; Thereby; The phenomenon that magnetic encryption valve is damaged by malice in the pipeline often occurs, encrypt the maintenance work of valve to magnetic and make troubles, shortened the working life of valve.
Summary of the invention
To the problems referred to above, the present invention propose a kind of rational in infrastructure, can not open when having the magnetic lock function and damages, safe, long service life, the mechanical Sealing mechanism of modified model easy to maintenance because of malice.
For solving this technical problem; The present invention takes following scheme: modified model machinery Sealing mechanism; Its valve gap top of being located at valve is used to limit the opening and closing of the rotation of valve rod with the control spool; It is characterized in that: said mechanical Sealing mechanism comprises bonnet, clutch cover and opens key; What said unlatching key was movable is located on the bonnet, is provided with between said unlatching key and the bonnet to make bonnet with opening the linkage that key rotates, the rotating valve gap top that is sheathed on valve of said bonnet; Be provided with the idle running axially stop block between said bonnet and the valve gap; Said clutch cover is located on the free end of said valve rod in the bonnet, and the outside of said valve rod is arranged with Returnning spring between the valve gap of clutch cover and valve, is provided with the radial location device that clutch cover is rotated with bonnet between said clutch cover and the bonnet; The free end of said valve rod is a circular pin; The inboard that said clutch cover matches with the valve rod free end is the polygonal through hole, and the valve rod outside that is positioned at the clutch cover below is provided with and the corresponding polygonal edge of the inboard polygonal through hole of clutch cover, and said clutch cover circumferentially is evenly equipped with the locking hole away from that end-face wall upper edge of valve gap; Be respectively equipped with lower magnetic steel in said each locking hole, be respectively equipped with on each corresponding position, locking hole of said unlatching key and clutch cover with each locking hole in the identical upper magnetic steel of lower magnetic steel magnetic.
Further improvedly be: said idle running axially stop block comprises a plurality of positioning beads; That face that said bonnet matches with valve gap offers annular groove; The corresponding periphery wall of said valve gap and annular groove upper edge circumferentially is evenly equipped with positioning hole; In said each positioning hole spring is housed respectively, said each positioning bead resists between positioning hole and annular groove through spring respectively.
Further improvedly be: said positioning hole and positioning bead are respectively two.
Further improvedly be: said radial location device is that bonnet and the corresponding inboard of clutch cover are made as the polygonal endoporus, and the outside of said clutch cover is provided with and the corresponding polygonal buckle of bonnet inboard polygonal endoporus.
Further improvedly be: said linkage is to be provided with square convexity on the top of bonnet, and that face that matches with bonnet at said unlatching key has the square slotted eye that is complementary with the square convexity in bonnet top.
Further improvedly be: said radial location device is corresponding inboard along circumferentially being evenly equipped with the raised line that a plurality of extend vertically with clutch cover at said bonnet, and the said clutch cover outside offers the groove that is complementary with inboard each raised line of bonnet with the corresponding position of inboard each raised line of bonnet.
Through adopting the aforementioned techniques scheme, the invention has the beneficial effects as follows: when needing Open valve, the unlatching key of carrying is sheathed on the bonnet top; Because of the lower magnetic steel magnetic pole opened on facing the wall and meditating on upper magnetic steel and the clutch cover in the key is identical, under the effect of magnetic homopolar-repulsion, clutch cover overcomes Returnning spring under the promotion of lower magnetic steel pressure moves down; Make the inboard polygonal through hole of clutch cover match with the polygonal edge in the valve rod outside; The realization linkage connects, thereby valve rod can be rotated with the rotation of clutch cover, realizes the open and close of valve; Do not work when packing up when opening key; Clutch cover return upwards under the effect of Returnning spring makes the polygonal through hole of clutch cover break away from the polygonal edge of valve rod, and this moment, the polygonal through hole of clutch cover matched with the circular pin of valve rod; Make clutch cover can on the free-ended circular pin of valve rod, do the idle running action with the rotation of bonnet; Damage thereby valve can not opened because of malice, guaranteed the Security that magnetic valve uses to a certain extent, reduced the phenomenon that magnetic valve is damaged by malice in the pipeline; Bring convenience for the maintenance work of magnetic valve, prolonged the working life of magnetic valve.
