[0013] (III) Beneficial effects

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a safety-grade electric ball valve, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. By setting up an air pressure pipe, when the valve body needs to be closed, the electric component drives the ball to rotate in the rotating chamber, so that the through hole of the ball is misaligned with the valve body. At this time, the material pressure in the valve body will squeeze the sealing ring, so that the sealing ring and the ball fit together. At the same time, the air pressure pipe injects compressed air into the rotating chamber. The compressed air supports the sealing ring from the inside, so that the pressure on both sides of the sealing ring is balanced, avoiding the problem of unidirectional force on the sealing ring, which leads to imbalanced force and easy deformation and damage.

[0016] 2. By setting up a pressure detector and an exhaust valve, the pressure detector can detect the pressure in the valve body after the ball is closed. According to the measured pressure value, the air pressure pipe can be used to inject appropriate air pressure into the rotating chamber so that the pressure on both sides of the sealing ring can be balanced. The exhaust valve can discharge the air in the rotating chamber after the ball is opened to avoid the injected balanced air pressure from mixing with the material and affecting the normal transportation of the material.
