The invention belongs to the technical field of uranium enrichment, and particularly relates to a worm gear structure concurrently serving as a limiting mechanism. The left half part and the right half part of a box are each of a hollow cylindrical structure and are staggered by 90 degrees in space, the upper portion of the left half part is connected with an end cover, the left half part of the box is provided with a worm gear, the right half part of the box is provided with a worm, and the worm gear and the worm are in a meshed state; the front outer wall and the back outer wall of the high portion in the center of the worm gear on the upper portion of the left half part of the box each extend outwards to form a boss plane tangent to the cylindrical structure, that is to say, the two boss planes protrude in the cylindrical structure; the two boss planes are each provided with an adjusting bolt, the height of the centers of the adjusting bolts is consistent with the thickness of the center of the worm gear, that is to say, the adjusting bolts can touch the worm gear when the worm gear rotates, the rotating angle of the worm gear is limited by the positions of the adjusting bolts, and then limiting on the valve opening and closing angle is achieved. According to the worm gear structure, valve opening and closing can be effectively achieved, the transmission requirement is met, and the problem about limiting of the opening and closing angle is solved.
