Abstract: The present invention relates to sealing valves used in the petroleum and gas extraction industry, in particular but not exclusively, to medium- or high-pressure ball valves. In particular, the present invention relates to a sealing assembly (101, 102) for ball valves (1), and to a ball valve comprising such an improved sealing assembly. The sealing assembly ensures excellent sealing performance at low and high pressures by exclusively using a thermoplastic material sealing element (31), thus completely eliminating the drawbacks which afflict the sealing system of known type, in particular in relation to the reliability of the sealing elements made of elastomeric material.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a sealing system particularly for industrial safety valves, even more particularly for industrial gate valves. Hence, the subject of the present invention is both a sealing system (1) suited to be used on a gate valve and a gate valve comprising such a sealing system (1). The system according to the present invention allows to combine the advantages in terms of simplicity and cost-effectiveness for manufacturing gate valves provided with a traditional sealing system, with further advantages in terms of performance both at high and at low operating pressures and reducing the torques required to handle the slab, also ensuring the operation of the valve itself with unaltered sealing performance over time, even under particular and demanding operating conditions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a sealing system particularly for industrial safety valves, more particularly for industrial ball valves. Thus, the present invention relates both to a sealing system and to a ball valve comprising said sealing system. The sealing system according to the present invention is of the type comprising an elastomeric element (500) and a thermoplastic element (600), and is characterized in that the elastomeric element (500) that provides fluid sealing is held in its seating exclusively by a thermoplastic element (600) and by the particular shape of the seating (400) of said elements within the seat (200), and is held stably in position by these.
