The actuator 20 can be easily installed and removed through the fixing screw holes 22 and the plug-in columns 24 on the turntable 21 without special tools or complicated operating steps. The dial 30 is connected to the valve ball 40 through the actuator 20, and the switch position of the valve ball can be accurately controlled, thereby realizing precise control of the flow rate. The setting of the limit column 13 limits the valve body 10 at a specific position, preventing over-position or misalignment caused by external forces or other factors. It has the characteristics of high stability, convenient installation and disassembly, precise control, limit function, compact structure, and easy maintenance and repair.
[0031] Furthermore, external joints 11 are coaxially installed at both ends of the valve body 10, which increases the stability of the entire connection mechanism and makes it more stable when subjected to external forces.
