Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of valves, in particular to a butterfly valve with a lower limit structure. Background Art
[0002] A valve is a pipeline accessory used to open and close pipelines, control flow direction, and adjust and control the parameters of the conveying medium. It has functions such as shut-off, regulation, diversion, prevention of backflow, pressure stabilization, diversion or overflow pressure relief. It can be divided into check valves, regulating valves, and shut-off valves according to left and right. Butterfly valves are a common type of regulating valve, also known as flap valves. They are mainly opened and closed by the rotation of the internal disc-shaped valve disc or butterfly plate around the valve shaft. They are widely used due to their simple structure and convenient opening and closing methods.
[0003] However, when the butterfly valve is installed on the pipeline and used, there is no locking limit measure when the butterfly valve is in the closed or open state. If it is touched by mistake, it will cause the butterfly valve to open or close unexpectedly, causing the liquid inside the pipeline to suddenly connect or interrupt the closure. There are some safety hazards and deficiencies, and it is not convenient to perform auxiliary locking and limiting when the butterfly valve is in use.
[0004] Now, a new butterfly valve with a lower limit structure is proposed to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings. Utility Model Content
