By means of the rotating connection, the control plate 44 and the pushing block 46 can rotate relative to each other, thereby ensuring that when the pushing block 46 rotates with the mounting block 2, the control plate 44 will not be driven to rotate. The shape of the pushing block 46 is a shape formed by connecting a cylinder above and a rectangular parallelepiped below, and the diameter of the cylindrical area of ​​the pushing block 46 is consistent with the diameter of the control plate 44.

The outer wall of the pushing block 46 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the positioning groove 3, and the sliding direction of the pushing block 46 is up and down.

[0030] Reference Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 7, the inner wall of the mounting block 2 above the positioning groove 3 is provided with a positioning bin 47, the positioning bin 47 is a cylindrical groove, and the inner diameter of the positioning bin 47 is consistent with the outer diameter of the control board 44, the inner wall of the positioning bin 47 is provided with a reset slide 48, the shape of the reset slide 48 is spiral, and the number of spiral turns of the reset slide 48 is a quarter turn, the inner wall of the positioning bin 47 at the horizontal position of the upper end of the reset slide 48 is provided with a rotating slide 49, the rotating slide 49 is a horizontal groove, and the shape of the rotating slide 49 is an arc. Through the horizontal setting, it is ensured that when the control ball 45 moves to the plane position where the rotating slide 49 is located, the control ball 45 is rotated due to the control The ball 45 can move in the rotating slide 49, so that the control panel 44 can rotate relative to the mounting block 2 at this time.

[0031] Reference Figure 3 、 Figure 6 and Figure 8 The top of the mounting block 2 is fixedly connected to a rotating tube 5.

The inner wall of the rotating rod 62 is slidably connected to a control rod 64. The outer wall of the control rod 64 is fixedly connected to a push block 65.

[0032] Reference Figure 4 、 Figure 6 and Figure 8The control component 6 also includes a worm gear 610. The inner wall of the worm gear 610 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating tube 5. A movable groove 66 is provided on the inner wall of the housing 1. A slider 67 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 66. The slider 67 is in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, and a cut angle is provided on the right side of the front end of the slider 67. The setting of the cut angle ensures that when the cut angle is applied to the front and rear directions, it can generate left and right movement. A worm 68 is passed through and rotatably connected to the inner wall of the slider 67. The middle diameter of the worm 68 is smaller than the end diameter, and the outer wall curvature of the worm 68 matches the outer wall curvature of the worm wheel 610. The outer wall of the slider 67 is elastically connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 66 by a spring 2 69. One end of the spring 2 69 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slider 67, and the other end of the spring 2 69 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 66.

[0033] Working principle: During use, when the staff disassembles the equipment, the square protrusion at the top of the valve leaves the positioning groove 3, so the bottom end of the push block 46 is not subjected to force. Therefore, the slide rod 42 moves downward under the elastic force of the spring 43, and drives the slide rod 42 and the control plate 44 to move downward.

[0034] When the control plate 44 moves downward, the control plate 44 drives the control ball 45 to move downward. At this time, the control ball 45 leaves the rotating slide 49 and enters the moving track 410 which is in the same vertical plane with it. If the control ball 45 is in a position between the two moving tracks 410 at this time, since the control ball 45 is in the shape of a sphere, its bottom is a spherical surface. Therefore, after being subjected to force, it can move in the direction of the moving track 410 where its center is located in the vertical position.

[0035] When the control ball 45 moves downward to a position passing through the moving path 410, the control ball 45 enters the reset slide 48. At this time, when the control ball 45 moves downward again, it pushes the inner wall of the reset slide 48, so that in the process of continuing to move downward, the reset slide 48 is forced to rotate from the groove position at the same height as the reset slide 48 to the area at the same horizontal position as the reset slide 48, thereby driving the mounting block 2 to rotate.

[0036] Therefore, it can be ensured that when the equipment is disassembled, it can be automatically zeroed.

[0037] After the equipment is installed, the protrusion at the top of the valve enters the positioning groove 3, pushing the pushing block 46, thereby causing the pushing block 46 to drive the control plate 44 to move upward, and causing the control plate 44 to drive the control ball 45 to move to the inside of the rotating slide 49. Since the rotating slide 49 is horizontal, the control ball 45 is inside the rotating slide 49 at this time, so it will not hinder the relative rotation of the mounting block 2 and the control plate 44.

[0038] During the use of the equipment, when the staff needs to adjust the opening and closing degree of the valve, the staff first pushes the control rod 64, so that the control rod 64 drives the push block 65 to move backward, so that the push block 65 squeezes the inclined surface of the slider 67, causing the slider 67 to move to the left. When the slider 67 moves to the left, the worm wheel 610 is separated from the worm 68, so that the rotating tube 5 can rotate normally, and the worm 68 will not be unable to rotate due to the worm wheel 610 being unable to drive the worm 68 to rotate in an unstressed state.

[0039] At the same time, the staff rotates the control rod 64. Since the control rod 64 and the rotating rod 62 are in sliding connection, the control rod 64 drives the rotating rod 62 to rotate when it rotates, thereby rotating the bevel gear 2 63 and driving the bevel gear 1 61 to rotate, thereby rotating the rotating tube 5.

[0040] When the arrow on the upper end of the rotating tube 5 points to a value close to the required value, the staff releases the control lever 64. At this time, the slider 67 is reset under the elastic force of the spring 2 69, so that the worm 68 moves to a position close to the worm wheel 610.

[0041] At this time, the staff rotates the worm 68. Since the worm 68 can only drive the worm wheel 610 to rotate one tooth position when it rotates one circle, the worm wheel 610 rotates slowly at this time. Therefore, the opening and closing degree of the valve can be slowly adjusted at this time until the pointer just points to the required value. At the same time, when the adjustment is completed, since the worm wheel 610 cannot drive the worm 68 to rotate, even if the valve disc is pushed during the flow of liquid, it is not easy to change the rotation angle of the valve disc.

[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
