Definitions
- the present invention relates to gate valves having integrated support members along the periphery of the passage within the main body structure of the valve to decrease degradation of an elastomer seal.
- Gate valves are used to control the flow of various fluids carried inside tubular conduits or pipes.
- a gate valve typically includes a main body structure with a passage positioned between and coupling a pair axially-aligned conduits that are bolted to opposite sides of the main body structure.
- a flat, fluid-impermeable gate with a pair of opposed, substantially planar faces is slidable into the passage through a slot in the main body structure to selectively occlude the passage and thereby close the valve.
- Gate valves that are used to control the flow of fluids include a seal between the gate and the main body structure to prevent the fluid from leaking, either from the valve or across it when closed.
- a seal between the gate and the main body structure to prevent the fluid from leaking, either from the valve or across it when closed.
- a slurry an adequate seal between the gate and the main body structure can be difficult to achieve. Slurries arise in many harsh industrial environments, such as wood pulp processing and paper manufacturing, various types of mining including coal and phosphates, and bottom ash removal systems for power station smokestack scrubbers. The solids in such slurries can clog, coat, or damage a seal in many gate valves and thereby allow the fluid to leak.
- One bidirectional gate valve seal described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,846,442 of Clarkson et al, includes a pair of opposed solid resilient sleeve units that compressibly engage each other when the valve is open and engage opposite sides of the gate when the valve is closed.
- a stiffening ring bonded to each sleeve unit engages a rigid locking ring to hold the sleeve unit in place.
- Such a gate valve seal suffers from several disadvantages.
- the solid resilient sleeve units can be difficult to displace when closing the valve because the design does not include a way to eliminate overcompression of the sleeve from the flange-raised face surfaces of the mating conduit, thereby making the valve difficult to operate.
- pressure against the gate in a valve closed position can displace the resilient sleeve unit on the downstream side and allow a leak between the gate and the upstream resilient sleeve unit.
- the present invention includes a gate valve having a main body structure with first and second sides defining a passage therethrough, a gate transversably positioned within the passage, suitable for occluding fluid flow therethrough, wherein the gate when positioned within the passage defines has opposing sides that each have a peripheral margin, moving means coupled to the gate for moving the gate along a given axis to selectively occlude the passage, a first set of rigid support members affixed to the main body structure at the periphery of the passage on the first side of the gate, the first set of rigid support members extending from the main body structure towards the transversal path of the gate, wherein the surface of the first set of rigid support members closest to the gate extends beyond the surface of the main body structure, a second set of rigid support members affixed to the main body structure at the periphery of the passage on the second side of the gate, the second set of rigid support members extending from the main body structure towards the transversal path of the gate, wherein the surface of the second

- FIG. 10 is a section view along axis C-C of FIG. 8.
- FIGs. 1, 2, and 3 show a rotary gate valve 10
- FIGs. 8, 9 and 10 show a linear gate valve 10, each having a main body structure 12 positioned between a pair of axially aligned conduits, not shown, for carrying a fluid or slurry along an axis 15, shown in FIGs. 1, 3, 8 and 10.
- a flat, fluid-impermeable gate 16 is positioned within a slot 18 passing through main body structure 12.
- gate 16 is slidable through slot 18 to selectively occlude an interior region or passage 20 of gate valve 10.
- Passage, or passageway, 20 extends within the main body structure 12 to permit fluid flow therethrough.
- Occlusion of passage 20 with gate 16 functions to close valve 10.
- Removing gate 16 from passage 20 functions to open gate valve 10.
- Gate 16 is rotate through slot 18 within the bidirectional valve 20, shown in FIG. 2, and slideable in directions 30 that are transverse, preferably perpendicular, to axis 15 within the linear knife gate valve, shown in FIG. 8.
- movement of gate 16 through slot 18 within the linear knife gate valve may be controlled by a conventional threaded stem positioned within an optional impermeable, resilient boot and cap, and coupled to handwheel unit, which are secured to an upper portion of main body structure 12. It will be appreciated that movement of gate 16 through slot 18 may be controlled by other conventional mechanisms such as, for example, pneumatic, hydraulic, or electromechanical mechanisms.
- the main body structure 12 includes a pair of opposed, substantially identical body halves that are welded or bolted together with a pair of flat spacers positioned between the sides thereof.
- the main body structure 12 includes a singular or unitary structure. Spacers may be integral to the body of the valve. Body halves may be fabricated or cast metal, preferably steel, or any other suitable material including composites. Spacers are formed of a rigid material, such as stainless steel or mild steel, that are selected according to the temperature and chemical characteristics of the slurry. Spacers separate body halves to form slot 18 through which gate 16 is movable to selectively open or close gate valve 10.
- a seal unit having substantially similar seal members is positioned within main body member 12 on opposite sides of the gate 16 that cooperate to seal gate valve 10 whether it is open or closed. Seal members are positioned and sized to provide valve 10 with full flow bore when it is completely open. The two seal members have substantially similar components. Seal members include resilient, annular, elastomer sleeves 52a and 52b. The elastomer sleeves 52a and 52b shown in FIGs. 1 -5 and 8-10, are preferably formed of a molded soft, resilient material such as natural rubber, chlorobutyl, or neoprene with additives such as wax or TeflonTM included to improve lubricity.
- the hardness of elastomer sleeves 52a and 52b is a parameter that may affect valve performance. A sleeve of insufficient hardness may cause it to misalign at operating pressures and extrude out of valve body 12. It has been empirically determined that a sleeve of excessive hardness may not seal against gate 16 and thus take a compression set that would result in seal failure. For a preferred 8 inch (20 cm) diameter passage 20 of a valve 10, an elastomer sleeve with a hardness between approximately 48 and 70 durometer performs correctly at design pressures. The proper hardness of the elastomer sleeves may vary for valves having different passage diameters. Referring to FIG.
- valve 10 also includes a grease point to allow grease to be introduced into a chamber for lubricating elastomer sleeves 52a and 52b, to prolong sleeve life and facilitate ease of operation.
- a hard wiper together with conventional packing material is positioned within upper portion of the body structure 12 and functions to seal grease within the chamber. Wiper also scrapes process media material from gate 16 as it slides through the wiper.
- the wiper may be formed of various materials according to the temperature and chemical characteristics of the slurry, such as polyethylene available as UHMWTM from Hoeshst Celanese of Chatham, N.J., TeflonTM (i.e., fluorinated ethylene propylene) available from Dupont, or of stainless steel of types 304 or 316.
- a clean-out area is connected to a drip pan that collects any fluid that might incidentally leak between gate 16 and seal units 50a and 50b.
- a solid member 42 shown in FIG. 8, may be affixed to the upper portion of the gate 16 to act as a barrier for compositions within the passage 20.
- Gate 16 may be metal, plastic, or a composite material, with a taper 46 of 7°-12°, preferably 8°-10°, ground (i.e., for a metal plate) along both sides of leading edge 48.
- the angle of taper 46 on leading edge 48 of gate 16 is selected to be sufficiently large to prevent leading edge 48 from cutting elastomer sleeves 52a and 52b. The angle is sufficiently small to allow easy movement of gate 16 between sleeves 52a and 52b and to minimize leakage during movement of gate 16.
- a set of a first and second rigid support members or segments 201a and 201b are affixed to the main body structure 12 at the periphery of the passage 20 on the first and second side of the gate 16.
- multiple sets of the first and second support members 201a and 201b are positioned around the periphery of the passage 20.
- a representative number of sets of support member segments 201a and 201b may be disposed around the passage or opening within body structure 12 as described below. The number of support members employed and their respective positioning around the passage opening will depend on the particular application.
- the number of support member segments may, for example, range from about 2 to about 14, more preferably from about 4 to about 12, and most preferably from about 6 to about 10 sets.
- These rigid support members 201a and 201b extend from the main body structure 12 towards the transversal path of the gate 16, where the surface of the first and second rigid support members closest to the gate 16 extend beyond the surface of the main body structure 12.
- the rigid support members 201a and 201b are spaced along the internal diameter of the opening within the main body structure 12 and prevent, when under pressure on one side, from over-compressing the downstream elastomer sleeves 52a or 52b.
- the support members 201a and 201b provide sufficient directional support for gate 16 as the gate is displaced within the body structure 12.
- the gate 16 may come in contact with the body 12 as it traverses between open and closed positions. In the case where gate 10 is metal, this results in metal to metal contact and may cause undesirable wear.
- the sets of support members 201a and 201b maintain the gate 16 in alignment preventing unwanted compression against valve body 12.
- Fig. 4 illustrates gate 16 in a closed position in which the gate extends between elastomer sleeve 52a and 52b.
- one of the support members 201a and 201b provides support for the downstream elastomer sleeve (52a or 52b) to prevent over-compression thereof.
- the support members 201a and 201b also prevent the elastomer sleeves from bending into the passage as the gate passes the sleeves.
- FIG. 5 illustrates the vavle 10 in an open position in which the gate 16 is lifted or rotated away from the elastomer sleeves 52a, 52b, When the gate 16 is open, the elastomer sleeves 52a and 52b form a seal to prevent process media from entering body structure 12.
- Support members 201a and 201b may be formed of various materials according to the pressure and temperature, and generally include compositions having a temperature tolerance greater than the elastomeric sleeves, such as compositions of plastic, e.g., polyethylene available as UHMWTM from Hoeshst Celanese of Chatham, New Jersey, glass filled TeflonTM (i.e., fluorinated ethylene propylene) available from DuPont Company of Wilmington, Delaware, RytonTM from Chevron Phillips Company LLC of Woodlands, Texas, and Delrin® from DuPont Company of Wilmington, Delaware.
- the support members include the plastic composition of Delrin® from DuPont Company of Wilmington, Delaware.
- Fig. 6 illustrates a recess for receiving support members 201a and 201b within body structure 12.
- the support members 201a and 201b are inserted into a recess in the periphery of the opening in the main body structure 12 defining the main through port or passage of valve 10. This may be done with proper body machining.
- the metal body halves are machined with a recess defined by pocket 203 and female slot 204 for each gate support member 201a and 201b.
- This pocket 203 and slot 204 are machined in the radial direction into the gate support face of each half of body structure 12.
- the machining process creates a key or lip within the respective halves of body structure 12.
- This combination of pocket and slot could be considered a flattened "L" shape and is the axial locking mechanism for the support members 201a and 201b.
- the lower portion 207 is disposed in slot 204 and a front portion 207a extends partially into the passage.
- the majority of mass of the support member 201 may be disposed within the recess defined by the pocket 203 and slot 204 configuration such that the support member can withstand the compressive forces from gate 16 on sleeves 52a and 52b.
- alternative recess and support member configurations may be employed in which the support member is retained at least partially within the recess while withstanding the associated forces during gate operation.
- the support members 201a and 201b are machined with a matching male key or lip to lock the support axially within the body half, e.g. , these could also be considered as having a flattened "L" shape. The dimensions of this key match those of the female slot within the metal body half.
- the support members 201a and 201b may then be installed into the machined metal body. At this point, the support members 201a and 201b are inserted and pressed into the female housing slots. No adhesive or fasteners are generally used at this time to hold the support members 201a and 201b within the valve body. In one alternative embodiment, an adhesive or fastener may be used.
- the support members 201a and 201b are prevented from moving axially in the main body structure 12 due the keyed slots in the metal housing.
- the support members 201a and 201b are then radially retained.
- the gate support members 201a and 201b are retained in the radial direction. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, physical contact 208 of the outside diameter of sleeves 52a and 52b locks the inside radius of each support member 201a and 201b into place in the main body structure 12.
- segmented design of these gate support members 201a and 201b provides two significant features. First, the segmented design allows these support members 201a and 201b to be installed in the radial direction into the main body structure 12. Second, the segmented designs keep slurry from building up a ridge that would be created by non-segmented surface. This minimizes build-up of slurry on the gate face and within the body cavities as the valve 10 actuates.
- the lower coefficient of friction of the support members 201a and 201b reduces drag and corresponding valve thrust and torque requirements.
- the valve gate 16 will slide easier against the support members 201a and 201b than against the main body structure 12 when the valve 10 is pressurized. This resulting lower amount of drag will reduce the requirements for the valve actuator, which can then be down-sized.
- the reduction of contact between the gate 16 and metal body half will reduce wear on the body and gate 16.
- Fig. 8 is a cross sectional veiw of a linear gate valve 10 with elastomer sleeves 52a and 52b disposed in respective halves of body structure 12.
- the support members 201a and 201b are installed on both sides of the gate 16 to provide support for the gate 16 in both directions and allow the knife gate valve 10 to be bi-directional.
- the support members 201a and 201b also reduce compression on the sleeves 52a and 52b to improve their wear properties and sealing capabilities. This allows the sleeves 52a and 52b to perform better at sealing since the amount of compression on the sleeves 52a and 52b is controlled.
- Fig. 9 is a cross sectional view of the gate valve 10 shown in Fig. 8 taken along lines D-D illustrating the positioning of the support member segments 201a.
- Fig. 10 is a cross sectional view of the gate valve 10 shown in Fig. 8 taken along lines C-C illustrating the placement of the support members 201a and 201b within respective recesses of body structure 12.
- the support members 201a and 201b engage the edges of gate 16 which extend beyond elastomer sleeves 52a, 52b.
- Each of the sleeves 52a, 52b may include supports 53a, 53b to provide added structural support to the sleeves.
- a rotary gate valve having an eight inch (8 in) opening.
- Eight support members on one side of the gate were made of UHMWTM having a surface area of 0.62 square inches of surface area on one side, resulting in a total surface area of approximate 5 square inches adjacent to the gate.
- a rotary gate valve having an eight inch (8 in) opening was configured.
- Eight support members on one side of the gate were made of PTFE having a surface area of 0.62 square inches of surface area on one side, resulting in a total surface area of approximate 5 square inches adjacent to the gate.
- a 14 inch version of the Clarkson linear-actuated knife gate valve was configured with the present invention.
- the support members were made of UHMWTM.
- the valve was configured with a quantity of four gate supports on each side of the gate.
- Each support member had a surface area (adjacent to the gate) of approximately 10 square inches, with a total of approximately 36 square inches per side adjacent to the gate.
- Analysis revealed that yield strength of the compositions resulted in the UHMWTM deforming less than the PTFE. RytonTM deformed the least. As such, a greater surface area of PTFE is needed than the other two compositions, with more PTFE surface area needed than for the RytonTM.
