[0063] The implementation principle of a liquid hydrogen stop valve in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: before use, the ferrule plug 632 can be removed, and the air in the stop valve can be extracted and then an inert gas can be introduced to ensure dryness inside the stop valve.

[0064] When adjusting the stop valve to open or close, the hand wheel 84 is rotated to drive the screw sleeve 81 to rotate. The screw sleeve 81 is threadedly connected to the valve stem assembly 3, driving the valve stem assembly 3 to slide, driving the valve disc 4 to slide, and realizing the connection and closure of the two second channels 112 and the first channel 111.

[0065] During use, when the sealing performance of the first sealing component 51 and the second sealing component 52 decreases, the hydrogen formed by the vaporization of liquid hydrogen enters the detection hole 21, and then enters the annular cavity 22 through the air inlet channel 24. The air pressure in the annular cavity 22 increases, and the channel tightening block 711 overcomes the elastic force of the first reset member 712 and presses against the outer wall of the sealing ring 531. As the air pressure in the annular cavity 22 continues to increase, the sliding seat 725 is pushed to overcome the elastic force of the second reset member 724 to slide, and the sliding seat 725 abuts the first chamfer 7311, pushing the fixing rod 731 to slide. When the moving contact piece 723 and the static contact piece 722 are in contact, the fixing groove 7251 is aligned with the connecting hole 132. The fixing rod 731 is embedded in the fixing groove 7251 under the action of the elastic force of the third reset member 732, so that the sliding seat 725 and the valve cover 2 are relatively fixed, and the light strip 721 remains in a constant state to remind the staff to perform maintenance in time.

[0066] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
