    [0002] The invention also relates to a rotary valve of a fluid flowing in a conduit, comprising a body provided with an upstream segment with an inlet opening and connected to a fluid arrival section in said conduit and a segment downstream end provided with a discharge opening and connected to a fluid outlet section in the conduit, said body having a central recess constituting a seat in which is housed a rotary sealing member, said rotary sealing member having a channel through to ensure the passage of the fluid through said rotary valve when it is at least partially open.30 Prior art A rotary valve of this type is for example illustrated by the publication FR 2 697 888 A1 which describes a ball valve or ball valve having channels in the ball or plug to minimize turbulence as a fluid flows through the rotary valve. This turbulence is more particularly due to the pressures that are exerted by the fluid passing through the valve at the time of its opening, and in particular in the initial phase of its opening.
    [0003] This type of valve, currently widely known and widely used, effectively reduces the pressure upstream of the valve seat to allow a conversion of energy due to pressure constraints during the opening phase to a certain opening angle of the valve.
    [0004] The problem of wear of the valves due to these constraints is particularly crucial for valves mounted on ducts which carry very heavy liquids, especially in mineral fillers, such as very erosive sand grains or the like. Indeed, during this opening, the potential energy is suddenly transformed into kinetic energy, thus releasing a fluid moving at high speed, which is a source of erosion and turbulence. This phenomenon also generates vibrations in the valve and further increases the sound level and the mechanical fatigue of this valve.
    [0005] DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention proposes to overcome the disadvantages of known ball or sphere segment valves by providing a rotary valve in which the generation of harmful turbulence can be significantly, simply and economically reduced. of the opening phase, and accordingly reduce both the wear, especially when the valve is mounted on a conduit that carries charged fluids, and noise. In addition, the improvement made to this type of valve can be transposed on almost all the valves of this type in the form of a complementary additive element that can be adapted to the existing valves. This object is achieved by a decompression insert as defined in the preamble, characterized in that said decompression insert comprises at least a first cylindrical section, at least a second cylindrical section whose section is narrowed relative to that of said first section. cylindrical, and at least a third section, said frustoconical shaped connection section for connecting said first section to said second section, and in that said decompression insert comprises means for diffusing said fluid, from the beginning of the opening phase of the rotary valve, this decompression insert being at least disposed in the upstream section of the body of said rotary valve. Advantageously, said third section of frustoconical shape has a base whose section is substantially equal to the section of said first cylindrical section and an apex whose section is substantially equal to that of said second cylindrical section. According to a preferred embodiment, said means for diffusing the fluid comprise a plurality of radial openings formed in at least one wall of said decompression insert.

    [0010] BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The present invention and its advantages will emerge more clearly from the description of several embodiments, given by way of non-limiting examples, with reference to the appended drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a first embodiment of a rotary valve of the "ball valve" type, according to the invention, in the partially open position, - Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of a second embodiment of a rotary valve.

    [0011] Various Embodiments of the Invention FIG. 1 represents a so-called rotary valve 10 constituted by a sphere valve or a sphere-segment valve, this rotary valve being mounted on a conduit 11 of a fluid circulating in said conduit 11 and comprising a body 12 provided with an upstream segment 12a with an inlet opening 13a of the fluid conveyed in the conduit 11 and a downstream segment 12b with a discharge opening 13b of this fluid. The upstream segment 12a is connected to a supply section 11a of the fluid and the downstream segment 12b is connected to a discharge section 11b of the fluid. The body 12 of the rotary valve 10 comprises a spherical central recess 14 constituting a seat in which is housed a sealing sphere 15, rotatable about an axis perpendicular to the axis of the body 12 of the rotary valve 10. The sphere shutter 15 comprises a through channel 16 whose section is substantially equal to the section of the upstream segment 12a and the downstream segment 12b of the body 12 of the rotary valve 10, so that at full opening the fluid conveyed by the conduit 11 can freely pass through the valve 10, without being braked or disturbed by obstacles likely to generate turbulence.
    [0012] It has been found that on this type of valve, in particular when it is placed on ducts 11 which convey charged fluids, they degrade rapidly because of the erosion undergone by the turbulence induced by the fluid passing through the rotary valve 10. It is essential to reduce this turbulence, in particular by lowering the pressure at the passage through the valve. The present invention provides a simple and effective solution to reduce these pressures and therefore the erosion experienced by the inner walls of the valve body and the sealing sphere.
    [0013] For this purpose, the valve 10 is equipped with at least one decompression insert 20 arranged to diffuse a portion of the fluid flowing in a conduit 11, during an initial opening phase of the rotary valve 10, this initial phase corresponding at the partial opening illustrated in FIG. 1. Indeed, it is in this initial opening phase that the pressure in the upstream segment 12a is the highest and that the turbulences are strong, particularly because of the depression generated by the downstream portion of the conduit 11. Of course, these same phenomena are found when the rotary valve 10 is in the final phase of closure. In order to make it possible to diffuse a part of the fluid, said decompression insert 20 is composed of a first cylindrical section 21 whose external section is equal to the internal section of said upstream segment 12a of the body 12 of the rotary valve 10, at least one second cylindrical section 22, whose section is reduced relative to that of said first cylindrical section 21, and a connecting section 23, of frustoconical shape, arranged to couple together said first cylindrical section 21 and said second cylindrical section 22. The wall said connecting portion 23 at least and possibly that of said second cylindrical section 22 comprise openings or radial perforations 24 through forming a network of peripheral diffusion orifices.
    [0014] FIG. 1 represents the rotary valve 10 during the opening or closing phase. The closing sphere 15 is rotated in such a way that it closes off the decompression insert 20, while putting the through channel 16 into communication with the space located between the inside of the upstream segment 12a of the body 12 of the valve. 10 and the sections 22 and 23 of the decompression insert 20. This communication is effected through the radial openings 24 in order to reduce the pressure in the upstream sector of the rotary valve 10 during this preliminary phase of operation. opening or closing of the through channel 16.30 FIG. 2 represents a view similar to that of FIG. 1, showing a rotary ball valve 110, of which practically all the components are identical to those of the rotary valve 10 of FIG. 1, in particular the body 112, with the exception of the closing sphere 115, which is housed in a spherical cavity 114 and which is of the type with perforated internal partitions 130, arranged inside the channel t 116. In this system known per se, the ball valve 110 is said to be silent, this characteristic being due to the fact that passages 131 or perforations in the partitions 130 allow a flow of the fluid with a reduction of turbulence and consequently of the noise. and wear. It also comprises a decompression insert 20, identical to that of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, and disposed in the upstream segment 112a of the body 112 of the rotary valve 110. FIG. 3 is a view similar to that of FIG. 1 and represents a rotary valve 210 of which practically all the components are identical to those of the rotary valve 10 of FIG. 1, with the exception of the closing sphere 15 which is replaced by a rotating sphere segment 215, which can turn between two extreme positions, one corresponding to the full opening of the valve and the other to the total closure of this valve. The sphere segment 215 is housed in a central spherical recess 214 of the body 212 of the rotary valve 210. The partial opening or closing phase, represented in FIG. 3, makes it possible to release part of the pressure upstream of the valve, through the openings or radial perforations 24 formed in the wall of the decompression insert 20 which is similar to the decompression inserts 20 described above. FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of a rotary valve 310 whose body 312 is composed of a central element 312c of cylindrical outer shape, an upstream element 312a and a downstream element 312b mounted on the side and side. other of the central element 312c which are mechanically assembled together. Such a rotary valve body 310 is easier to manufacture than the valve bodies 12, 112, 212 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 described above. The shutter element 315 consists of two spherical caps 315a and 315b which delimit between them a through channel 316 and which are disposed inside a central cavity 314 of the body 312. The central cavity 314 formed in the Inside the central element 312c is spherical. The operating mode of the rotary valve 310 is identical to that of the rotary valves 10, 110, 210 above and its purpose is also to reduce the pressure upstream. It will be noted that a decompression insert 20 is disposed on each side of the rotary valve 310. The rotary valve 310 can operate in both directions, that is to say that the upstream inlet can become the downstream outlet and reciprocally depending on the direction of flow of the fluid in the duct 311. The two decompression inserts 20 are intended to exert alternately the same functions of reducing the pressure and reducing erosion due to turbulence charged water. FIG. 5 shows the rotary valve 10 of FIG. 1 with full opening. It will be noted that the through channel 16 of the sealing sphere 15, of cylindrical shape, has exactly the same section as the upstream segment 12a of the valve and the downstream segment 12b respectively connected to the supply section 11a and the section d 11b evacuation of the fluid carried in the conduit 11. This configuration makes the rotary valve 10 self-cleaning fully open. A single decompression insert 20 is provided on the upstream side of the rotary valve 10, this valve being provided for unidirectional use, from left to right in FIG. 5. At full opening, the passage of a scraper device is possible, even if the section of a portion of the decompression insert 20 is smaller than the section of the conduit 11 and that of the upstream segments 12a and 12b downstream of the body 12 of said rotary valve 10.
    [0015] Figure 6 shows a rotary valve 10 'substantially identical to the rotary valve 10 of Figure 1, fully open, but having the characteristic of being bidirectional. For this purpose, the rotary valve 10 'comprises two identical decompression inserts respectively located on both sides of the through channel 16, of cylindrical shape, and having strictly the same functions in the direction of flow of the fluid in the conduit 11. At full opening of the rotary valve 10 ', the upstream side will be rinsed by the incoming flow and the automatic cleaning function will be performed on the side of the inlet of the rotary valve. This side changes according to the direction of flow of the fluid in the conduit 11. FIG. 7 represents a rotary valve 10 "which derives from the rotary valve 10 'of FIG. 6, because it is bidirectional and comprises two inserts of identical decompression respectively located on both sides of the through channel 16 having a complex shape.This through channel 16 is in fact spherical in its central portion 16c and cylindrical in its end sectors 16a and 16b. At full opening, the passage of fluid in the body 12 of the rotary valve 10 "is limited to the section of the narrow portion of the decompression inserts 20 at the second cylindrical sections 22. Industrial applicability These different embodiments have similar operations and allow all achieve the goals set by the invention, namely reduce the pressure on the upstream side, reduce noise, turbulence and erosion of the body of the valve and shutter element, as well as to allow self-cleaning of the valve, thanks to the presence, on the upstream side, in the direction of fluid flow, of a decompression insert that begins to let passing the fluid at the beginning of the opening of the valve, allows the maximum flow rate at full opening of the valve and reduces this flow again at the end of closing of the valve. The present invention is not limited to the examples described above but extends to any modifications or variations obvious to those skilled in the art. The various through-channels can be adapted in any type of closure element, such as spheres or the like, depending on the objectives to be attained and on the parameters of the fluids to be regulated.
