DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] The following is a further description of the specific implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0020] In order to ensure that the user cannot control the rotation of the transmission shaft 2 by twisting the rotating rod 3 when the valve is fully opened and closed, the torque control device includes: a central shaft 4, a connecting hole 5 opened in the middle of the central shaft 4, the connecting hole 5 is connected to the transmission shaft 2 of the gear box, and the central shaft 4 is also provided with a separation drive device for driving the central shaft 4 to rotate and will slip when a certain torque is exceeded. The separation drive device includes: a connecting sleeve 6, a connecting ring 7 arranged on the connecting sleeve 6, and a limiting ring 8 arranged on the central shaft 4 for resisting the connecting ring 7. A first friction plate 9 is arranged between the connecting ring 7 and the limiting ring 8. The central shaft 4 is also provided with an adjustment device for adjusting the friction between the connecting ring 7 and the limiting ring 8, and the connecting sleeve 6 is connected to the rotating rod 3 through a clamping device.
[0021] In order to facilitate the adjustment of the friction force between the connecting sleeve 6 and the center shaft 4, the adjustment device includes: a second friction plate 10 sleeved on the center shaft 4 and with one end resisting the connecting ring 7, a protective plate 11 sleeved on the center shaft 4 and with one end resisting the second friction plate 10, a connecting thread opened on the center shaft 4, and a locking pressure block 12 locked on the connecting thread for pressing the protective plate 11 and the second friction plate 10 to adjust the friction force between the connecting sleeve 6 and the transmission shaft 2.
[0022] In order to more accurately adjust the friction force between the connecting sleeve 6 and the central shaft 4, an elastic adjustment device for further adjusting the pressure is also provided between the locking pressure block 12 and the protective sheet 11, and the elastic adjustment device includes: a plurality of conical pressure sheets 13 sleeved on the central shaft 4 and with one end resisting the protective sheet 11, an adjustment block 14 provided between the conical pressure sheet 13 and the locking pressure block 12, a plurality of adjustment threaded holes 15 opened on the locking pressure block 12 and penetrating through the adjustment block 14, and an adjustment screw 16 locked in the threaded hole for adjusting the pressure.
[0023] In order to enhance the stability of the torque control box during use, the locking pressure block 12 is further provided with a locking threaded hole 17 perpendicular to the central axis 4 for enhancing the connection stability between the locking pressure block 12 and the central axis 4 .
[0024] In order to facilitate the rotation of the central shaft 4 and provide another safeguard after the separation drive device is damaged, the engaging device includes: a connecting disk 18 arranged on the connecting sleeve 6 at one end away from the connecting ring platform 7, a rotating disk 19 arranged on the connecting disk 18, a first latching tooth 20 arranged on the connecting disk 18 facing the side of the rotating disk 19, and a second latching tooth 21 arranged on the rotating disk 19 facing the side of the connecting disk 18. A plastic filling piece 22 is arranged between the first latching tooth 20 and the second latching tooth 21 for connecting the first latching tooth 20 and the second latching tooth 21, and the plastic filling piece 22 is broken when subjected to excessive pressure, thereby avoiding affecting the valve transmission parts.
[0025] In order to enhance stability, a limiting groove 23 is provided on the central shaft 4 , and the protection sheet 11 is arranged to match the limiting groove 23 .
[0026] Working principle: During installation, the torque control box is installed on the gear box so that the transmission shaft 2 of the gear box is inserted into the connecting hole 5 in the central shaft 4 to complete the installation.
[0027] When in use, turning the rotating rod 3 can drive the rotating disk 19 to rotate, and then drive the connecting disk 18 to rotate, so that the connecting sleeve 6 rotates together. At this time, since the connecting sleeve 6 is connected to the central shaft 4 through the first friction plate 9 and the second friction plate 10, the connecting sleeve 6 will drive the central shaft 4 to rotate to open and close the valve.
[0028] When the valve opening and closing member rotates to the extreme position, the force required to further rotate the valve opening and closing member will increase, and this force will exceed the friction between the connecting sleeve 6, the first friction plate 9, the second friction plate 10 and the central shaft 4, causing the connecting sleeve 6 to idle on the central shaft 4, thereby protecting the transmission components of the valve and extending the service life of the valve.
