[0007] The bellows regulating valve as described above, wherein the upper joint comprises: the lower portion of the upper tube is fixed to the bellows, the upper portion of the upper tube has an annular protrusion; and the two semicircular support rings embrace the upper tube.

[0008] In the bellows regulating valve as described above, a cylindrical pin is provided at the lower portion of the lower joint, and the valve core is threadedly connected to the cylindrical pin.

[0009] The bellows regulating valve as described above, wherein the lower joint has an external hexagonal shape, and the lower pipe opening of the connecting pipe is matched with an internal hexagonal shape.

[0010] To sum up, due to the adoption of the above-mentioned technical solution, the present invention solves the problem of difficulty in disassembling the bellows in the prior art. By setting two semicircular support rings, after removing the valve cover, the double semicircular support rings can be removed by pulling the valve stem, and then the connecting pipe, valve core, and valve stem can be removed in turn to realize the removal operation of the bellows assembly. The structure of the present invention simplifies the replacement steps of the bellows assembly. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0011] Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of the bellows regulating valve of the present invention;

[0012] Figure 2 It is a partial enlarged view of the bellows of the bellows regulating valve of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0013] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0014] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the bellows regulating valve of the present invention. Figure 2 This is a partial enlarged view of the bellows of the bellows regulating valve of the present invention, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 , a bellows 3 regulating valve, with a connecting pipe 4 between the valve body 10 and the valve cover, a valve core 7 is installed in the valve body 10, and a valve seat 9 is provided in the valve body 10, wherein a bellows 3 assembly is installed in the connecting pipe 4, the valve stem passes through the valve cover, the bellows 3 assembly and is fixed to the valve core 7, the bellows 3 assembly includes: an upper joint 1 is fixed at one end of the bellows 3, and a lower joint 5 is fixed at the other end of the bellows 3, the upper joint 1 is placed in the upper pipe mouth of the connecting pipe 4; the lower joint 5 is placed in the lower pipe mouth of the connecting pipe 4; the upper pipe mouth of the connecting pipe 4 has a countersunk hole, and two semicircular support rings 2 are relatively installed in the countersunk hole, and the two semicircular support rings 2 embrace the upper joint 1. Due to the presence of the valve cover, the two semicircular support rings 2 can fix the upper joint 1 to the upper part of the connecting pipe 4 after installation.
