Leakage blocking device of ball valve {APPARATUS PREVENTING WATER LEAKAGE FOR BALL VALVE}

The present invention is a ball valve widely used for piping such as water supply pipes, oil pipelines, and the like. Especially, in order to maintain or repair a valve installed in a pipe, a valve body, a ball, and a ball seat can be installed without removing the valve body from the pipe. The present invention relates to a water shutoff device of a ball valve having a repairable property, in particular, when the rubber seat and the inner seat ring of the seat assembly are pressed onto the metal ball seat when the ball valve is closed, The metal inner seat ring is pressed, the seat assembly is pressed against the seat surface of the ball, and is pressed by the action of the piston by the cross-sectional area difference between the pressure side and the pressure side to which the hydraulic pressure is applied. It can be used stably for a long time without any defect that is damaged by excessive force, and the leakage blocking is perfect. In addition, the present invention relates to a leak off of the ball valve so that the ball valve body in a simple easy to disassembly and reassembly device.

In general, a pipe for transferring various fluids, including water, is equipped with a ball valve as a valve to allow or block the flow of the fluid, the ball valve handle and the opening and closing ball which is rotatably installed inside the valve body and It is configured to allow or block the flow of fluid by opening and closing operation by means of rotating operation as an electric motor.

The ball valve in the prior art inserts an opening / closing ball into the valve chamber of the valve body, and then assembles a cover, and inserts a stem from the outside of the valve body to be fixed to the government of the opening / closing ball and then opens and closes the stem. It is a structure in which a mechanism is coupled, and a rubber sheet is coupled between an annular jaw formed inside the valve body and the opening / closing ball, and the rubber sheet is elastically in close contact with both sides of the opening / closing ball to leak fluid. It is configured to block.

However, in the above-described ball valve of the prior art, the rubber seat of the valve body is difficult to rotate the ball when the compression is too strong during the initial assembly, the weakening the pressing force has a problem that the leakage preventing force is lowered.

In addition, in a ball valve employing a metal seat, the metal seat suddenly presses against the seat surface of the ball due to the powerful hydraulic pressure acting when the valve is closed, which causes an excessive force on the valve, resulting in a defect that causes the valve to break. Problems are caused, there was a problem that can not be used stably for a long time.

In addition, the conventional ball valve is widely used because of the ease of manufacture and the reason that the price of the product is relatively inexpensive, but it was very inconvenient to continuously supply without interruption of the supply fluid in oil pipes, tap water and the like.

On the other hand, conventional ball valves include a side entry type in which the ball is introduced from the side to the valve body on the center line of the pipe and a top entry type in which the ball is injected from the top of the valve body. There are various structures that separate the body into 2 pieces, 3 pieces, 4 pieces, etc., but the upper insert type is mostly one body, and the special structure is considered as the sealing structure and the method of assembling and releasing the ball are special. Will be needed.

Therefore, it is necessary to improve the above-mentioned conventional problems and to continuously supply or minimize supply interruption of the fluid without interruption of the fluid during maintenance and repair of the ball valve. The main body shall be constructed so that it is not detached from the installed pipe, and second, a suitable leakage device for assembling and disassembling the ball and the seat ring should be provided. Therefore, the present invention greatly improves the two structures.
