Definitions
- Valve for application in a sludge pump system as further outlined in the preambule of claim 1.
- valves are applied in pumping systems, inter alia in combination with a displacement pump.
- aggressive, abrasive and corrosive liquids containing granular material, such as sand, coal, ore or, for example, mining waste often at high temperatures, are frequently pumped over large distances under high to very high pressures. It is clear that these conditions place extremely high demands on the durability of such a system's components, among which the valve.
- a valve such as that mentioned in the preamble is known from Dutch patent application 8600545.
- the valve described herein is partially provided with a metal to metal contact-surface and partially with a metal to elastic material contact-surface.
- the metal to elastic material contact-surface is employed to allow sludge material which is present between the contact-surfaces when the valve closes, and, as a result, is under extra-high pressure, to escape via grooves provided in the metal contact-surface, without causing damage to the valve.
- the object of the current invention is to provide a valve which, under equivalent circumstances, has a longer life and longer maintenance-free periods than the known valve.
- valve according to the invention has characterising features as outlined in claim 1.
- the invention makes use of the understanding that the high degree of wear of the elastic material in the known valve can largely be attributed to those particles in the sludge which, due to their presence on the contact-surface between metal and elastic material, remain on the metal part of the contact-surface during the closing of the valve and, thus, are pushed into the elastic material, resulting in heavy damage to it in a short time.
- the invention offers a solution whereby the aforesaid particles are, on both sides, elastically embedded in the elastic contact-surface between the elastic sealing rings of the valve so that, under the same circumstances, the valve stands far less chance of sustaining damage than was previously the case.
- valve according to the invention has, thus, also been made suitable for working pressures in the order of 30 - 300 bar.
- One embodiment of the valve according to the invention is characterised in that the form of the cross-section of the sealing rings and of the supporting elements is chosen in such a way that, when the valve body is moving in the direction of the valve seat, the sealing rings are the first parts to come into contact with each other.
- the advantage of the embodiment is, besides the two-sided embedding of the sludge particles in the elastic contact-surface during valve closure and the coming together of the sealing rings, that just before closure of the metal supporting elements, the metal contact-surface concerned is cleaned by the sludge as it escapes from between the surfaces.
- the point of the contact-surface of the sealing rings furthest from the point where the contact-surfaces of the sealing rings and of the supporting elements meet has sufficient freedom to be able to move radially with respect to the motional axis of the valve body.
- the freedom to execute the aforementioned motion forms a basis for the further notion of making the elastic contact-surface curvilinear, hereby allowing classification according to the technical effects to be discussed below.
- a curved contact-surface between the elastic sealing rings particularly a contact-surface with a spherical form, whereby a somewhat crooked descent of the valve body, arising, for example, from play in the guiding media, will be very much less likely to result in an incorrect seating, so that wear will not significantly increase.
- a further advantage pertaining to the incision is that, if the supporting element becomes somewhat worn away by the valve body, the valve body will not, as it were, partially fall between the supporting element and the valve seat. In this way, stair-like wearing-effects on the metal contact-surface are avoided.
- the figure shows a possible embodiment of a cross-section of a valve 1 which, for example, is used as a suction valve or a delivery valve in, for example, displacement pumps for pumping mixtures consisting of liquid and solid matter. Said pumping usually occurs at under high pressure.
- the valve 1 has a high-pressure side 2 and a low-pressure side 3.
- the low-pressure side 3 is that side of the valve 1 where, at least in the case whereby the valve 1 is closed, the pressure is lower than at the high-pressure side 2.
- the valve 1 is provided with a valve casing, which is not depicted, and a valve body 5 which can move in said valve casing. Attached to the valve body 5 is a valve stem 6 which is mounted in the valve casing in such a way as to be movable in a sleeve 7.
- the sleeve 7 is attached to the valve casing, which valve casing is not depicted, via securing media 4.
- valve 1 If the valve 1 is of the self-working type and is moved by the pressure of the medium at the sides 2 and 3, then, in general, a spring 8, located between the valve body 5 and the sleeve 7, will be present in the valve casing. However, if the valve is not of the self-working type, then the movement of the valve body 5 will be effected by way of media which are not depicted and which can be operated from without.
- valve seat 9 Located in the valve 1 is a valve seat 9 which has an essentially conical contact-surface.
- the valve body 5 also possesses a corresponding conical contact-surface.
- the valve body 5 possesses a metal supporting element 10 and the valve seat possesses a metal supporting element 17 in order to form a conically extending metal-to-metal contact-surface 11.
- An elastic ring 12 is mounted on the valve body 5 and an elastic ring 13 is mounted on the valve seat 9. Both rings 12 and 13 possess corresponding contact-surfaces in order to form the elastic contact-surface 14.
- the internal diameter and external diameter, respectively, of the rings 12 and 13 are such that, when the valve 1 closes, the rings 12 and 13 first make contact at a point 19 between the contact-surfaces 11 and 14, and only later, when the valve body 5 moves further downwards, can the metal-on-metal contact between the valve seat 9 and the metal element 10 also be effected.
- the elastic ring 13 in the valve seat gives way vertically and outwardly.
- the distinct contact-surfaces 11 and 14, which are preferably bordering on each other, have a curved form whereby, for example, one of the contact-surfaces is concave and the other is correspondingly convex, as appears in the figure.
- the sealing ring 12 is implemented in such a way that its largest diameter is larger than the diameter of the elastic contact-surface 14, whereby, under circumstances of either surface-wearing or deterioration of the elastic properties of, in particular, an uppermost lip section 15 of the the ring 13, a good seal is guaranteed at the surface 14.
- the largest diameter of the surface 14 is also greater than the largest diameter of an element 16 which encapsulates the ring 12 and is mounted on the valve body 5. This means that, in the event of wear of a bulging section 18 of the ring 12, the diameter will be restored to that of the encapsulating element 16, and no stair-like wear will occur.
