Diaphragm valve
A diaphragm valve includes a valve seat disposed in a valve chamber in a body, an annular groove provided on the outer periphery of the valve seat, a diaphragm provided so as to be able to make contact with and leave the valve seat via a pressurizing device, and a primary-side flow path communicating the valve chamber, in which an inner diameter of a secondary-side flow path contiguously provided to the annular groove is 2.0 to 4.5 times a groove width of the annular groove, and an intersection cross-sectional area between the annular groove and the secondary-side flow path is smaller than a cross-sectional area of the secondary-side flow path and the intersection cross-sectional area is configured to be equal to or larger than 35% with respect to a sectional area of the secondary-side flow path to acquire a predetermined Cv value.
1. A diaphragm valve comprising:
a valve seat disposed in a valve chamber in a body;
an annular groove provided on an outer periphery of the valve seat;
a diaphragm provided so as to be able to make contact with and leave the valve seat via pressurizing means; and
a primary-side flow path communicating with the valve chamber,
wherein a secondary-side flow path is contiguously provided with an outer diameter of the annular groove such that an inner diameter of the secondary-side flow path intersects an outer peripheral surface of the annular groove in a linear direction so as to be substantially perpendicular to the outer peripheral surface of the annular groove,
wherein a semi-circular portion of the secondary-side flow path is contiguously provided on the outer diameter of the annular groove, and a semicircular notched groove is formed by contiguously providing the secondary-side flow path up to a position in front of an inner diameter of the annular groove without reaching the inner diameter of the annular groove,
wherein the semi-circular portion of the secondary-side flow path defines a first region having a substantially semi-circular shape as viewed in a lateral direction of the body, the semicircular notched groove of the secondary-side flow path defines a second region that is substantially bow-shaped as viewed from directly above the body, and an intersectional cross-sectional area of the annular groove and the secondary-side flow path is an area obtained by adding an area of the first region and an area of the second region,
wherein the inner diameter of the secondary-side flow path is 2.0 to 4.5 times a groove width of the annular groove,
wherein the intersectional cross-sectional area is smaller than a cross-sectional area of the secondary-side flow path,
and wherein the intersectional cross-sectional area is configured to be equal to or larger than 35% with respect to the cross-sectional area of the secondary-side flow path to acquire a predetermined Cv value.
2. The diaphragm valve according to claim 1 , wherein the inner diameter of the secondary-side flow path is 2.8 to 4.5 times the groove width of the annular groove.
3. The diaphragm valve according to claim 1 , wherein an abutting surface of the semicircular notched groove has a flat shape made by flat end processing.
4. The diaphragm valve according to claim 1 , wherein the predetermined Cv value is equal to or larger than 0.75.
5. The diaphragm valve according to claim 2 , wherein an abutting surface of the semicircular notched groove has a flat shape made by flat end processing.
