The present invention relates to an improvement of a spiral-wound gasket with branches. In the header of a heat exchanger, the internal fluid passage is separated by a partition wall, and a spiral-wound gasket with branches is used in this part to prevent short circuits and seal the internal fluid. currently known,
This type of branched spiral gasket includes the following types: ○B A spiral-wound gasket with branches that is fitted into a spiral-wound gasket using a metal jacket gasket made of asbestos coated with a metal material. ○B Spiral-wound gasket with branches, in which a metal hollow O-ring rod serving as a branch is directly welded to the inner diameter of the spiral-wound gasket and held fixed. The branched spiral-wound gaskets ○A and ○B each have various drawbacks. ○Since the spiral-wound gasket with branches in A uses metal jacket gaskets as branches, it is difficult to make branches with complicated shapes due to manufacturing technology, and dimensional accuracy cannot be achieved due to half-manual processing. This results in poor performance and high production costs. In addition, although high surface pressure is required for tightening, there is a limit to the number of tightening bolt holes arranged on the outer periphery of the flange designed for heat exchangers, and they are not distributed at equal intervals. Therefore, with the branched spiral-wound gasket shown in ○A, the effect of uneven tightening of each part is noticeable, and it cannot be expected to seal the partition wall. In addition, in the case of the spiral-wound gasket with branches shown in ○B, the rod-like objects that serve as the branches are directly welded to the inner diameter metal part of the spiral-wound gasket (the discarded part of the metal band plate).
During welding, the spirally wound gasket itself may be damaged or distorted, resulting in an increased production defect rate and a loss of sealing function. In addition, since the branches and the spiral gasket are firmly fixed by welding, the spiral gasket with branches shown in ○B lacks elasticity as a whole, and if there is even a slight distortion in the flange etc. after assembly, it will seal. I couldn't do it. The present invention relates to a spiral-wound gasket with branches that does not have the above-mentioned drawbacks, and is applicable not only to heat exchangers, but also to devices that separate internal fluids with partition walls, such as headers of feed water heaters, etc. It is an object of the present invention to provide a spiral-wound gasket with branches that can be applied. Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a spiral-wound gasket with branches, according to the present invention. This spiral-wound gasket with branches 1 consists of a main body 2 which is formed by inserting a metal strip together with asbestos or other appropriate filler material into a ring shape.
In the inner space 3 of the main body 2, as shown in FIG.
A hollow metal body 6 consisting of a thin-walled metal hollow circular tube 5 connected to the metal hollow body 6 is provided. and,
The metal hollow body 6 and the main body 2 are integrated into a branched spiral shape by mechanically fitting the metal hollow body 6 into a side wall recess 2a formed on the inner peripheral surface of the main body 2. Apply to gasket 1. in this case,
As shown in FIG. 3, the connecting means of the branch 4 and the circular pipe 5 is to obtain an integrated metal hollow body 6 by a joining means such as welding, but the metal hollow body 6 and the main body 2 are Mechanically fitted without using any other joining means. This is because the metal hollow body 6 is equipped with a circular tube 5 whose dimensions are accurately determined, so that it can be mechanically fitted into the side wall recess 2a formed on the inner circumferential surface of the main body 2 with high precision, and can be integrated. This is because it can be easily performed. Moreover, with such a configuration, although the metal hollow body 6 and the main body 2 are integrated as a whole, from a functional point of view,
The configuration is such that each can exhibit independent characteristics. still,
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, an outer ring 7 made of a metal plate may be provided on the branched spiral gasket 1, if desired. The branched spiral gasket of the present invention having such a configuration is used, for example, as shown in FIG. 4. FIG. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the feed water heater header. A spiral gasket 1 with branches is interposed between the device body 8 and the flange 9. Then, the device main body 8 and the flange 9 are tightened to a predetermined surface pressure using tightening bolts (not shown).
The branched spiral-wound gasket 1 of the present invention has excellent compression and recovery characteristics due to the integrated metal hollow body 6, and therefore does not require high surface pressure due to tightening. Furthermore, even if distortion occurs in the flange 9 or the device body 8, the body 2 made of a spiral gasket and the metal hollow body 6 equipped with the circular tube 5 will be mechanically fitted with high precision. As mentioned above,
Since the main body 2 and the metal hollow body 6 act independently, the excellent sealing properties and deflection absorbing properties of the main body 2 can be exerted as they are, so the branched spiral gasket 1 of the present invention has excellent strain followability. It was confirmed in the following experimental example that this method had excellent effects. That is, the following experiment was conducted to investigate the allowable strain limit for sealing the spiral-wound gasket with branches according to the present invention shown in Examples (FIGS. 1 and 2). <<Experimental Example>> As the allowable limit strain, the amount of strain (amount of inclination) Δb (unit: mm) was measured by taking the maximum and minimum width difference of the gap width between the flange surfaces where the gasket is clamped. ANSI900 1b was used as the flange. In addition, three types of gasket sizes were selected: 4 inches, 8 inches, and 12 inches, and the average tightness of the gasket was 1.00.
mm was kept constant, and the amount of strain △bmm was measured and confirmed as the allowable limit strain based on when the sealed fluid (clean water) leaked at 0.5 cc/min. The experimental results are shown in the table below.

[Table] As confirmed from this experiment, the spiral gasket with branches according to the present invention is incomparably superior to conventional products in terms of distortion of the flange itself and tilt distortion caused by uneven tightening. Generally, with this type of gasket compressed by about 1 mm, the surface pressure changes by about 200 Kg/cm 2 for each 0.1 mm of tightness.
As can be understood from the above table, the branched spiral gasket according to the present invention can be sealed against distortion caused by a large amount of inclination, and is a maintenance-free gasket unlike any before. Also, what is particularly important is that generally the larger the gasket size, the smaller the interference margin, and the table above also shows that as the size increases, the amount of distortion as the allowable inclination amount tends to decrease. This is true in the case of spiral-wound gaskets with branches, which are normally used in heat exchanger headers, etc.
Since many gaskets have a large diameter, the branched spiral-wound gasket having the configuration of the present invention also has the advantage of exhibiting a synergistic effect. The results confirmed by the above-mentioned experimental examples were surprisingly more effective than the inventors in the field of gaskets had predicted. In addition, in the present invention, the cross section of the tube at any point of the hollow metal body 6 will be explained in the case of a tube having a cross section in which a closed section is formed of a metal material having a thin wall thickness so that the inside of the tube is hollow. However, depending on the pressure and type of the internal fluid, the metal hollow body may be formed by a tube whose cross section is partially open. As explained above, the present invention has an unprecedented structure and effects, and is believed to make a great contribution to industry.
