Centric butterfly valve
A centric butterfly valve ( 1 ) in which top and bottom boss surfaces ( 19, 29 ) are formed to be spherical, an outer peripheral end of the blade portion of the valve disk ( 24 ) is formed to be an M-shaped section part ( 29 ) with round-shaped apex parts ( 27 ) and a round-shaped valley part ( 28 ) smoothly linked, and the centric butterfly valve has a valve disk ( 3 ) having an extended part ( 41 ) obtained by successively and slightly extending the spherical surface of each of the top and bottom boss surfaces ( 19, 20 ) to a blade portion ( 40 ) side.
1. A valve disk for a centric butterfly valve, the valve disk comprising:
a blade portion;
a top boss surface provided on an upper part of the blade portion;
a bottom boss surface provided on a lower part of the blade portion; and
an outer peripheral seal part provided at an outer peripheral end of the blade portion,
wherein the outer peripheral seal part is an M-shaped section part defined by round shaped apex parts and a round-shaped valley-bottom part that smoothly transitions into the round shaped apex parts,
the top boss surface is formed by a partial top spherical surface, and a top extended part is obtained by continuously extending the partial top spherical surface to the apex parts, and
the bottom boss surface is formed by a partial bottom spherical surface, and a bottom extended part is obtained by continuously extending the partial bottom spherical surface to the round shaped apex parts.
2. The valve disk according to claim 1 , wherein
extends most to the blade portion side at a position of the apex part of” with each of the top and bottom extended parts has a shape that extends to the round shaped apex parts at the outer peripheral end of the blade portion of the valve disk and is gradually narrower in width toward the most extended position.
3. The valve disk according to claim 1 ,
wherein a distance of the valley-bottom part of the M-shaped section part from a center of the valve disk is substantially equal to a distance of an inner peripheral surface of a valve body from the center of the valve disk.
4. The valve disk according to claim 3 ,
wherein each of the top and bottom extended parts has a shape that extends to the round shaped apex parts at the outer peripheral end of the blade portion of the valve disk and is gradually narrower in width toward the most extended position.
