A first spring (not shown in the figure) is arranged between the adjusting rod and the lug to achieve the engagement of the block with the slot. In this embodiment, a cover plate is arranged on the lug, and a through hole for the adjusting rod to be installed is arranged on the cover plate. One end of the first spring presses against the cover plate, and the other end presses against the upper end head of the adjusting rod. The pressing structure also includes a pressing plate 23 that is rotatably arranged on the torque shaft, and an adjusting long hole 26 whose length points to the axis of the torque shaft is arranged on the pressing plate.

[0028] A travel limit structure is provided in the housing, such as Figure 7 As shown, the stroke limit structure includes a second push rod 38 that is elastically and guideably arranged on each valve block and can open and block the valve channel.

When the power output shaft rotates beyond the formation, under the action of the fourth gear and the third gear, the pressing cam will push the corresponding second push rod into the corresponding valve block to cut off the gas source. In the prior art, the stroke limit structure and the pneumatic motor are respectively controlled by two separate gas circuits, so that the gas circuit is complicated and the piping is complicated, resulting in many joints in the air pipe, and air leakage is easy to occur at the air pipe joint, affecting the use effect. In this embodiment, by setting the first valve block and the second valve block, the two sets of gas circuits in the prior art can be realized through one set of gas circuit, which reduces the number of piping and gas pipe joints, greatly reduces the risk of gas leakage in the gas pipe joints, and is safe and beautiful.
[0029] The valve channels on each valve block include a main valve channel 50, such as Fig. 9 As shown, the valve block is also provided with an auxiliary valve channel 51 arranged in parallel with the main valve channel, and a first connecting valve channel 53 and a second connecting valve channel 54 are arranged between the main valve channel and the auxiliary valve channel, and the first connecting valve channel and the second connecting valve channel are connected through a connecting valve channel 55. A movable valve core 52 is provided in the auxiliary valve channel to guide and move between the first connecting valve channel and the second connecting valve channel. A first installation cavity 56 is provided on the first connecting valve channel for installation of the first push rod 28, and a second installation cavity 57 is provided on the second connecting valve channel for installation of the second push rod 38. The valve block is also provided with an intermediate valve channel 58 connecting the main valve channel 50 and the auxiliary valve channel 51, and a blocking column 59 is installed in the intermediate valve channel for guiding and moving up and down and movably sealing, and the lower end of the blocking column has an annular cutting groove 60 for gas on both sides of the main valve channel to pass through, and the blocking column also has a blocking portion 70 for blocking the main valve channel after movement.

[0030] Each installation cavity includes a guide installation section 72 and a connecting section 73.

Each push rod includes a guide sealing part 67 that guides and moves and is sealed and installed in the installation section, and a push part 68 is provided at the end of the guide sealing part. A fourth spring 69 is provided between the push part and the fixed block, and the diameter of the push part is smaller than the aperture of the central through hole of the fixed block, which is used to push the sealing plate to allow gas to pass. Whether the first push rod or the second push rod is pushed into the corresponding valve block, the gas in the main valve channel will enter the secondary valve channel, push the valve core to allow the gas to enter the middle valve channel, and the gas pushes the stop column downward, so that the stop part of the stop column blocks the main valve channel, so as to cut off the gas source of the air supply to the pneumatic motor.
[0031] During use, when the valve stem is stuck and cannot be closed or opened, the gas pressure in the pneumatic motor is constantly increasing, causing the torque of the power output shaft to constantly increase. The worm is rotated axially by the conversion gear in the second transmission structure. Since the worm has a self-locking function, the worm will not rotate and can only move axially. The annular groove on the worm will drive the shift fork on the torque shaft to rotate, thereby driving the torque shaft to rotate. The top pressure plate at the upper end of the torque shaft will push the corresponding first push rod to block the valve channel on the corresponding valve block to cut off the air source to supply air to the pneumatic motor, avoiding the problem of the valve stem being bent or broken due to continued force. Moreover, the present invention improves the stroke limit structure and the pneumatic motor in the prior art to be controlled separately by two separate air circuits, and improves it to be realized by one set of air circuits, thereby simplifying the air circuit, reducing piping and gas joints, and reducing the risk of air leakage at the air pipe joints. It is safe and beautiful.
[0032] In other embodiments of the present invention, the torque switch can also be designed to have non-adjustable torque. In this case, the adjusting rod, lug and other structures are omitted, and only a top pressure plate needs to be set on the torque rotation shaft. In this case, the long hole may not be set on the top pressure plate; the intermediate air inlet and the intermediate air outlet may not be set on the shell. In this case, an air intake pipe mounting hole for the air intake pipe to pass through and an air outlet pipe mounting hole for the air outlet pipe to pass through can be set on the shell at the same position as the intermediate air inlet and the intermediate air outlet.
