By providing the retaining ring 16 and the second spring 32, the retaining ring 16 presses the membrane 8 under the elastic force of the second spring 32 to prevent the gas from leaking from the gap between the membrane 8 and the iron rod 4; The positioning plate 1 is set as an iron positioning plate 1, and the sound and light alarm module 33 is composed of a sound alarm and a light alarm; The bottom of the column 11 is connected with an iron sheet 31, the column 11 is connected with a rocker arm 12 through a pin, the rocker arm 12 is riveted to the valve body 9, one end of the rocker arm 12 is connected with a cutting rod 6, and the other end of the cutting rod 6 is connected with a cutting head 18; A dust cover 13, a valve core 14 and an air intake bracket 15 are installed in the air intake port 26. A first spring 17 is connected to the outer sleeve of the valve core 14. Both ends of the first spring 17 are connected to the air intake bracket 15 and the valve core 14 respectively. A reset button inner sleeve 5 is installed at the top of the iron pull rod 4, a reset button outer sleeve 19 is installed on the top of the upper cover 2, the reset button inner sleeve 5 is arranged in the reset button outer sleeve 19, a ball valve 28 is connected to the valve body 9, and the ball valve 28 is arranged between the flow sensor 25 and the air outlet 27.

[0018] The working principle and use process of the present invention are as follows: lift the reset button outer sleeve 19, drive the reset button inner sleeve 5 and the iron pull rod 4 to move upward, and the iron pull rod 4 and the magnet 3 drive the column 11 to move upward in linkage, and the upward moving column 11 drives the rocker arm 12 to move forward, and the rocker arm 12 drives the cutting rod 6 to move forward, driving the cutting head 18 on the cutting rod 6 to separate from the valve port air inlet 26, and at this time the self-closing valve starts to ventilate; When the flow rate increases, the force on the valve core 14 increases, and the first spring 17 begins to compress. When it reaches a certain value, the valve core 14 fits with the air inlet bracket 15 to block the air inlet. The air pressure in the cavity of the valve body 9 decreases, and the buoyancy of the membrane 8 decreases. When the buoyancy of the membrane 8 is less than the magnetic force of the magnet 3 and the positioning plate 1, the magnet 3 and the positioning plate 1 are attracted to drive the column 11 downward. The column 11 drives the cutting rod 6 to move to the right through the rocker arm 12, and the cutting head 18 fits with the air inlet 26. At this time, the self-closing valve cuts off the air inlet. During the ventilation process, when the intake pressure is insufficient, the air pressure in the lower chamber 29 decreases, and the buoyancy of the membrane 8 decreases. When the buoyancy of the membrane 8 is less than the magnetic force of the magnet 3 and the positioning plate 1, the magnet 3 and the positioning plate 1 are attracted to drive the column 11 downward, and the column 11 drives the cutting rod 6 to move to the right through the rocker arm 12, and the cutting head 18 fits the air inlet 26. At this time, the self-closing valve cuts off the intake. When the pressure is too high, the membrane 8 expands under force. When the set value is reached, the iron pull rod 4 separates from the magnet 3, and the magnet 3 loses the buoyancy of the membrane 8. The magnet 3 is attracted to the positioning plate 1, driving the column 11 downward. The column 11 drives the cutting rod 6 to move to the right through the rocker arm 12, and the cutting head 18 fits the air inlet 26. At this time, the self-closing valve cuts off the air intake. When a micro-leakage occurs, the flow sensor 25 senses the flow data and analyzes and processes it through the circuit module 23. When the set degree is reached, the circuit module 23 gives a power-on command to control the electromagnet 22 to work. After the electromagnet 22 is energized, it generates a magnetic force to adsorb the iron sheet 31 under the column 11. The iron sheet 31 drives the column 11 to move downward. The column 11 drives the cutting rod 6 to move to the right through the rocker arm 12, and the cutting head 18 and the air inlet 26 are fitted together. At this time, the self-closing valve cuts off the air intake.
