The present invention provides a butterfly valve provided with a self-compensating seal assembly for controlling the on-off of a fluid delivery line, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the butterfly valve comprising: a composite valve seat 100, which is a ring body having a hollow interior, including a valve body 101 and a pressing plate 102 connected by assembly; a tooth-shaped groove 103 provided on the inner side surface of the composite valve seat 100 and provided along the circumferential direction of the joint between the valve body 101 and the pressure plate 102 for mounting the seal assembly 200; a valve shaft 300 vertically disposed through the composite valve seat 100; the butterfly plate 400 is sleeved on the valve shaft 300, the butterfly plate 400 rotates under the drive of the valve shaft 300 and is in interference fit with the sealing assembly 200 on the composite valve seat 100, and the conduction or the disconnection of a pipeline is controlled.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the tooth-like groove 103 is formed by opposing a first groove 111 provided circumferentially along a first connection surface of the valve body 101 in contact with the pressing plate 102 and a second groove 121 provided circumferentially along a second connection surface of the pressing plate 102 in contact with the valve body 101. Specifically, the first groove 111 of the valve body 101 faces the second groove 121 of the pressing plate 102, and then the valve body 101 and the pressing plate 102 are fixed by using bolts, so that the first connecting surface of the valve body 101 contacts the second connecting surface of the pressing plate 102, and the first groove 111 and the second groove 121 form the toothed groove 103.
Wherein, the diameter of the inner diameter end (i.e. the end close to the butterfly plate 300) of the first groove 111 is larger than the diameter of the outer diameter end (i.e. the end far from the butterfly plate 300), and a plurality of first tooth-shaped protrusions 112 (3 in the embodiment) are arranged on the first connection surface of the outer diameter end; likewise, the diameter of the inner diameter end of the second groove 121 is larger than the diameter of the outer diameter end, and a plurality of second tooth-shaped protrusions 122 are arranged on the second connection surface of the outer diameter end; in the present embodiment, the first tooth-shaped protrusions 112 are disposed in one-to-one correspondence with the second tooth-shaped protrusions 122; in other embodiments, the first and second teeth protrusions 112 and 122 may be offset. In yet another embodiment, the toothed groove 103 may be formed by a groove in combination with a planar connection surface; specifically, the toothed groove 103 is formed by arranging the first groove 111 opposite to the second connecting surface of the pressing plate 102 where the second groove 121 is not arranged; or by the second groove 121 being disposed opposite to the first connection surface of the valve body 101 where the first groove 111 is not disposed.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the seal assembly 200 is installed in a toothed groove 103 formed by the valve body 101 and the pressing plate 102, where there is an interference fit between the seal assembly 200 and the toothed groove 103, and also there is an interference fit between the butterfly plate 400, and by controlling the interference between the seal assembly 200 and the toothed groove 103, the interference between the seal assembly 200 and the butterfly plate 400 can be adjusted, so as to further improve the sealing performance of the butterfly valve.
Further, as shown in fig. 2, the sealing assembly 200 includes a sealing ring 201, an inner diameter end (i.e., an end contacting the butterfly plate 300) of which is provided with a hollow circular ring 211 having a receiving space, and an outer diameter end (i.e., an end disposed opposite to the inner diameter end) of which has a rectangular cross-sectional shape; the inner diameter end and the outer diameter end of the sealing ring 201 are respectively and correspondingly arranged at the inner diameter end and the outer diameter end of the toothed groove 103, and the outer diameter end of the sealing ring 201 is extruded by the valve body 101 and the pressing plate 102 to form interference fit. Wherein, a lining ring 212 is arranged in the hollow circular ring 211; the inner ring 212 is used as an elastic energizing ring and is wrapped by a hollow circular ring 211 at the inner diameter end of the sealing ring 201, so as to form the sealing assembly 200. The seal 201 provided with the inner liner 212 is activated by fluid medium pressure, and the elasticity of the inner liner 212 is increased along with the increase of the fluid medium pressure in the effective working range, so that the long-service life zero-leakage bidirectional seal is provided. Alternatively, the seal ring 201 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon), and the inner ring 212 is made of highly elastic, high temperature resistant fluororubber (Viton).
When the butterfly valve works, the outer diameter end of the sealing ring 201 and the toothed groove 103 form interference fit, so that the interference of effective sealing between the inner diameter end of the sealing ring 201 and the butterfly plate 400 can be controlled. Further, since the inner liner ring 212 is wrapped in the hollow circular ring 211 by the sealing ring 201 as an elastic energizing ring, effective and reliable elastic force is provided for the composite valve seat 100, when the sealing ring 201 and the butterfly plate 400 are in interference fit (i.e. the butterfly valve is in a pipeline cutting state), the butterfly plate 400 compresses the sealing ring 201 radially outwards, and the inner liner ring 212 can absorb the compression energy and ensure that the sealing ring 201 cannot be crushed, so that the self-compensating function of the sealing assembly 200 is realized. The inner diameter end of the seal ring 201 is in interference fit with the butterfly plate 400, and the seal function is achieved through the high elasticity provided by the inner lining ring 212.
Still further, the toothed groove 103 formed between the valve body 101 and the pressing plate 102 tightly engages with the outer diameter end of the sealing ring 201 through interference fit to realize sealing, and on the other hand, under the excitation of the fluid medium pressure, the engagement between the toothed groove 103 on the other side of the arrival direction of the fluid medium pressure and the outer diameter end of the sealing ring 201 is enhanced, so that the tightness is improved, and the zero-leakage bidirectional sealing is realized. For different calibers, pressure levels and actual temperatures, the interference between the outer diameter end of the sealing ring 201 and the toothed groove 103 and the interference between the inner diameter end of the sealing ring 201 and the butterfly plate 400 need to be adjusted according to actual conditions. For example, the pressure level is high, and the interference magnitude needs to be correspondingly improved. In the normal opening and closing process of the butterfly plate 400, the seal ring 201 can undergo a tight-loose-tight alternating cyclic load, and the high-elasticity inner liner 212 can absorb and release energy in the process, so that fatigue failure in low cycle and medium cycle is avoided, and long-life sealing performance of the butterfly valve is realized.
When the butterfly valve provided with the self-compensating seal assembly according to the present embodiment operates normally for a long time, the inner diameter end (i.e. the end provided with the hollow ring) of the seal ring 201 and the butterfly plate 400 may wear to some extent, and the liner ring 212 can release the stored energy to force the inner diameter end of the seal ring 201 to deform in a direction close to the butterfly plate 400. In addition, the seal ring 201 and the toothed groove 103 formed between the valve body 101 and the pressing plate 102 form an annular plate spring structure, specifically, the inner diameter end of the seal ring 201 is a movable end of the annular plate spring, and the outer diameter end (i.e. a plane end) of the seal ring 201 is a fixed end of the annular plate spring. When the seal ring 201 or the butterfly plate 400 is worn greatly, the inner diameter end of the seal ring 201 moves towards the pressure direction of the fluid medium through the energy storage of the annular plate spring structure under the excitation of the pressure of the fluid medium, and then the seal structure with the self-compensating positive feedback function is realized by virtue of the two points of the elastic energizing ring (namely the lining ring 212) and the annular plate spring structure.
In addition, the butterfly valve provided with the self-compensating seal assembly provided by the embodiment is also easy to repair and maintain. Even when the inner diameter end of the seal ring 201 and the butterfly plate 400 are worn particularly severely, the seal assembly can be rapidly repaired and maintained without being compensated for sealing performance by the self-compensating positive feedback function. For example, when the seal ring 201 is severely damaged, the seal assembly 200 formed by the seal ring 201 and the inner liner 212 is simply removed and replaced. For example, when the seal ring 201 is worn seriously, the gap between the valve body 101 and the pressing plate 102 can be adjusted slightly to realize quick maintenance.
In summary, compared with the existing butterfly valve, the butterfly valve provided by the invention has higher robustness to chemical corrosion or acid working conditions, high-cycle low-middle cycle fatigue failure, and the sealing assembly 200 can provide excellent elastic performance through excitation of fluid medium pressure, so that the sealing performance of the butterfly valve is improved, the application range is enlarged, and the butterfly valve can be applied to chemical corrosion or acid working conditions, single-phase fluid (gas or liquid) and multiphase fluid (solid-liquid, solid-gas, liquid-gas, or solid-liquid-gas systems) or other similar products; secondly, the seal assembly 200 formed by the seal ring 201 and the inner lining ring 212 has the function of storing and releasing elastic energy, and the seal ring 201 and the toothed groove 103 form an annular plate spring structure, so that the butterfly valve has the advantages of self-compensating positive feedback, fatigue resistance and long service life.
While the present invention has been described in detail through the foregoing description of the preferred embodiment, it should be understood that the foregoing description is not to be considered as limiting the invention. Many modifications and substitutions of the present invention will become apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art upon reading the foregoing. Accordingly, the scope of the invention should be limited only by the attached claims.
