Description

Sawtooth-shaped metal gasket
Technical Field
The invention relates to a serrated metal washer. More particularly, the present invention relates to a serrated metal Gasket and a metal serrated pad (Kammprofile gask) having the serrated metal Gasket. The serrated metal gasket and the metal serrated pad having the serrated metal gasket of the present invention can be suitably used for, for example, a pipe flange, a tower, a tank, a heat exchanger, an autoclave, a valve cover, a metal seal mechanism, and the like, which use a fluid such as water vapor having high temperature and high pressure.
Background
In order to improve the sealing efficiency, the zigzag gasket forms concentric zigzag concave-convex parts on both surfaces of the gasket, and the effective contact area with a flange and the like is reduced. Serrated gaskets are commonly used, for example, in valve caps, pipe flanges, sealing caps for pressure vessels, and the like.
As a serrated gasket having a high cost reduction effect, a serrated gasket that is attached between a 1 st flange member and a 2 nd flange member, and that exhibits sealing properties by having serrated concave and convex portions formed on a gasket main body formed of a metallic seal portion main body formed with the serrated concave and convex portions and a metallic positioning portion formed on an outer peripheral side of the seal portion main body and formed of a plurality of split bodies split in a circumferential direction, respectively, fitted into a seal surface on the 1 st flange member side and a seal surface on the 2 nd flange member side, has been proposed (for example, see patent document 1).
Further, as a laminated zigzag gasket having a sheet layer of expanded graphite or the like and capable of preventing fine particles of the sheet layer of expanded graphite or the like generated by crushing at the time of gasket compression from entering a fluid passage, there is proposed a laminated zigzag gasket comprising a gasket main body having concentric circular zigzag uneven portions formed on both surfaces thereof and a sheet layer laminated so as to cover the zigzag uneven portions, wherein the gasket main body and the sheet layer are attached to a joint portion of the fluid passage in an integrated state, and when a 1 st member and a 2 nd member constituting the joint portion are fastened together, the zigzag uneven portions are fitted into the 1 st member and the 2 nd member via the sheet layer to exert a sealing force, wherein a distance from a 1 st protruding portion which constitutes the zigzag uneven portions and is closest to the fluid passage to a second 2 nd protruding portion is defined as a, when the distance from the 2 nd to 3 rd convex portions, from the 3 rd to 4 th convex portions, from the 4 th to 5 th convex portions, and from the n-1 th to n-th convex portions is b, a is not less than 2b, and the radially inner end of the sheet layer is disposed between the 1 st convex portion and the 2 nd convex portion (see, for example, patent document 2).
The above-described zigzag gasket has an excellent cost reduction effect, and the above-described laminated zigzag gasket has an excellent effect of preventing fine particles of the sheet layer, which are generated by crushing when the gasket is compressed, from entering the fluid passage.
In recent years, in order to prevent leakage of a fluid from between flanges even when a metal tooth gasket is attached between flanges of a pipe and a high-pressure fluid is introduced into the pipe, a surface pressure between the flanges is required to be 80MPa or more, and it is desired to develop a metal tooth gasket having excellent durability and excellent sealing property even under the surface pressure.
However, in a conventional metal tooth mat represented by a zigzag gasket with a sheet layer, when the thickness of the sheet layer is 0.6mm to 1.5mm, for example, when the metal tooth mat is attached between flanges of a pipe and fastened such that the surface pressure of the surface of the metal tooth mat in contact with the flange is 80MPa or more at the time of fastening the flange, the sheet layer thickness existing in the convex portion of the zigzag gasket is large, and therefore, it is not possible to sufficiently ensure the sealing property between the convex portion of the zigzag gasket and the flange.

The thickness of the elastic piece 6 is also determined by the fastening pressure when the metal tooth pad 5 is clamped and fastened between 2 flanges, and is preferably 0.6mm to 1.5mm, more preferably 0.8mm to 1.2mm, from the viewpoint of preventing the elastic piece 6 from breaking at the flat portion L formed at the top T of the convex portion 3 and improving the sealing property.
The elastic sheet 6 is usually attached to both surfaces of the serrated metal gasket 1 so as to cover the serrated concave- convex portions 1a, 1b formed on both surfaces of the serrated metal gasket 1. The elastic sheet 6 may be attached using an adhesive, a double-sided tape, or the like. Examples of the adhesive include rubber-based adhesives, but the present invention is not limited to the above examples.
Even when the metal toothed pad 5 of the present invention configured as described above is held between 2 flanges and adjusted to a high pressure of 80MPa or more in the surface pressure at the time of fastening the metal toothed pad 5, the elastic piece 6 can be present in a thin layer state in the flat portion L formed at the top T of the convex portion 3 formed on both surfaces of the serrated metal washer 1 used for the metal toothed pad 5. For example, in the case of using the elastic sheet 6 having a thickness of about 0.6mm to 1.5mm, when the metal tooth mat 5 is sandwiched between 2 flanges and the metal tooth mat 5 is fastened such that the surface pressure at the time of fastening the metal tooth mat 5 is 80MPa or more, the thin layer having a thickness of about 0.05mm to 0.1mm of the elastic sheet 6 existing in the flat portion L formed at the top portion T of the convex portion 3 becomes extremely small, and the amount of fluid penetrating through the thin layer of the elastic sheet 6 becomes extremely small, so that the sealing property can be improved.
In addition, in order to impart heat resistance to a heat-resistant elastic sheet generally used for a metal tooth pad, for example, an inorganic filler such as talc is contained in a large amount. When the content of the inorganic filler in the heat-resistant elastic sheet is high, the amount of fluid that permeates through the heat-resistant elastic sheet is increased as compared with an elastic sheet that does not contain the inorganic filler, and therefore, it is necessary to increase the surface pressure at the time of fastening the gasket.
On the other hand, when the metal toothed pad 5 of the present invention is held between 2 flanges and the surface pressure at the time of fastening the metal toothed pad 5 is adjusted to a high pressure of 80MPa or more, the elastic piece 6 remains in a thin layer state on the flat portion L formed on the top T of the convex portion 3 formed on both surfaces of the serrated metal washer 1 used for the metal toothed pad 5, and therefore the serrated metal washer is less likely to be exposed by the elastic piece 6, and therefore, the damage of the flange due to the exposure of the serrated metal washer 1 can be prevented.
Therefore, even when the metal tooth gasket 5 of the present invention is attached between flanges of a pipe and fastened so that the surface pressure of the surface of the metal tooth gasket 5 in contact with the flange at the time of fastening the flange is 80MPa or more, the sealing property between the convex portion 3 of the zigzag gasket 1 and the flange can be sufficiently ensured, and therefore the metal tooth gasket 5 of the present invention is excellent in durability under the surface pressure. Accordingly, the metal tooth mat 5 of the present invention is suitable for applications using a fluid having a high temperature and a high pressure, and therefore can be suitably used as a metal tooth mat for a high temperature/high pressure used in, for example, a pipe flange, a tower, a tank, a heat exchanger, an autoclave, a valve cover, a metal seal mechanism, and the like using a fluid such as water vapor having a high temperature and a high pressure.
As can be seen from the above, the metal tooth pad 5 using the serrated metal gasket 1 of the present invention can be suitably used when pipes using a fluid having a high temperature and a high pressure are connected to each other, for example, in a steam plant, a nuclear power plant, a steam turbine ship, a refinery line, a petrochemical industry production line, a semiconductor manufacturing line, and the like.
Examples
The present invention will be described in detail based on examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.

A serrated metal washer 1 having the shape shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 (outer diameter: 90mm, inner diameter: 75mm of concentric serrated uneven portions, thickness of flange portion: 2mm, angle formed by adjacent inclined surfaces of concave portions: 90 °) was produced by cutting a stainless steel (SUS316) metal washer (outer diameter: 110mm, inner diameter: 75mm of central opening portion) with a lathe. Details of the concave and convex portions formed in the serrated metal gasket 1 are shown in table 1.
The annular elastic sheet 6 was bonded with an adhesive (styrene-butadiene rubber adhesive) to form an annular elastic sheet (outer diameter: 90mm, inner diameter of opening in center part: 75mm, thickness: 0.9mm, material quality: organic binder (nitrile rubber), inorganic powder (talc) and fibers (alumina fibers and cellulose fibers), density: 1g/cm3]The metal toothed pad 5 was produced by adhering the metal toothed pad to the surface of the concentric saw-toothed uneven portion formed on both surfaces of the obtained saw-toothed metal gasket 1. In example 13, the thickness of the elastic sheet 6 was changed to 0.8mm, and in example 14, the thickness of the elastic sheet 6 was changed to 1.2 mm.
Next, as an index of sealing property and durability when high surface pressure fastening is performed using the metal tooth pad 5 obtained above, adhesion of the elastic sheet 6 formed in the convex portion of the concave-convex portion of the zigzag shape and thickness of the elastic sheet 6 were examined and evaluated by the following method. The results are shown in Table 1.
[ sealability at the time of high surface pressure fastening ]
The metal tooth pad 5 is clamped between flanges of a pipe, and the flanges are fastened by adjusting the fastening surface pressure to 100 MPa.
Next, nitrogen gas at 25 ℃ was introduced into the pipe, the internal pressure of the pipe was adjusted to 4MPa, the leakage amount of nitrogen gas was measured by the water-free test method, and the sealing property at the time of high surface pressure fastening was evaluated based on the following evaluation criteria. The results are shown in the column "sealability" in table 1. The measurement limit for measuring the amount of nitrogen leakage was 1.7 × 10-5Pa·m3/s。
(evaluation criteria)
