[0002] The butterfly valve, also known as the flap valve, is a simple regulating valve that can be used to control the flow of various types of fluids such as air, water, steam, various corrosive media, mud, oil, liquid metal and radioactive media. It mainly plays a role of cutting off and throttling in the pipeline. The butterfly valve opening and closing part is a disc-shaped valve disc that rotates around its own axis in the valve body to achieve the purpose of opening, closing or regulating.
[0003] The butterfly valves currently on the market are generally divided into two types, one is a butterfly valve that opens and closes by manually adjusting the valve disc, and the other is a butterfly valve that opens and closes by electromagnetically controlling the valve disc. The valve disc opening and closing positions of the above two types of butterfly valves are usually positioned by structure, that is, after the valve disc rotates to the open or closed position, the corresponding structure is set in the valve body to limit the rotation of the valve disc, thereby achieving control over the opening and closing of the valve disc.
[0004] However, in actual use, both of the above butterfly valves cannot achieve high-precision control of the valve disc rotation during the process of rapidly driving the valve disc to rotate, so that the valve disc can return to the origin more accurately. Utility Model Content
