[0022] A plurality of connecting lugs 8 are fixed to the outer side wall of the valve seat 1. The valve can be connected to a pipeline through the connecting lugs 8.
[0023] A sealing ring 7 is provided between the valve stem 3 and the inner wall of the shaft sleeve 2 .
[0024] The sealing ring 7 can increase the sealing performance between the valve stem 3 and the shaft sleeve 2.
[0025] The valve plate assembly 4 includes two symmetrical semicircular plates 41. A semicircular mounting sleeve 42 is fixed to one side of the two semicircular plates 41 close to the valve stem 3, and the mounting sleeve 42 is sleeved on the surface of the valve stem 3. Flanges 43 are fixed on both sides of the middle of the two mounting sleeves 42, and a connecting hole is opened in the middle of the flange 43. Bolts are connected to the connecting holes of the flanges 43 on the two mounting sleeves 42.
[0026] The two semicircular plates 41 can be fixed to the surface of the valve stem 3 through the mounting sleeve 42. Therefore, when the semicircular plates 41 of the valve plate assembly 4 need to be maintained and replaced later, the bolts of the connecting flange 43 can be removed and the semicircular plates 41 can be removed from the surface of the valve stem 3, making the disassembly and installation of the valve plate assembly 4 simpler and more convenient.
[0027] A positioning groove 46 is formed in the middle of the inner wall of each of the two mounting sleeves 42 . A positioning protrusion 31 is fixed to the outer wall of the valve stem 3 , and the positioning protrusion 31 can be snap-fitted into the inner part of the positioning groove 46 .
[0028] After the mounting sleeve 42 is sleeved on the surface of the valve stem 3 , it can be positioned by snapping the positioning protrusion 31 into the positioning groove 46 .
[0029] A slot 44 is formed on each side of the two semicircular plates 41 away from each other, and a sealing strip 45 is fixedly connected inside the slot 44 .
[0030] The sealing strip 45 can improve the sealing between the semicircular plate 41 and the inner wall of the valve seat 1 .
[0031] The driving assembly 6 includes a driven gear 61 fixed to the top of the valve stem 3 and a vertical shaft 62 that passes through the top wall of the top shell 5.

[0032] By turning the vertical shaft 62 by the handle, the driving gear 63 can drive the driven gear 61 to rotate, thereby driving the valve stem 3 to rotate. The valve stem 3 then drives the valve plate assembly 4 to rotate inside the valve seat 1, thereby opening or closing the valve. Due to the small gear ratio between the driving gear 63 and the driven gear 61, turning the handle is more labor-saving. When opening or closing is completed, the screw 64 can be rotated by turning the knob, causing the extrusion block 65 to press against the surface of the vertical shaft 62, thereby locking the vertical shaft 62 to prevent loosening.
[0033] Working Principle: To open or close the valve, the handle on the top of the top shell 5 rotates the vertical shaft 62, which drives the valve stem 3 and valve plate assembly 4 to slowly rotate, opening and closing the valve. When the valve plate assembly 4 needs to be replaced or maintained, the bolts on the flange 43 are first removed, and then the valve stem 3 is rotated to make the semicircular plate 41 away from the inner wall of the valve seat 1. The semicircular plate 41 can be removed from the surface of the valve stem 3. During installation, the mounting sleeve 42 on the semicircular plate 41 is clamped onto the surface of the valve stem 3, and then the bolts are installed in the connecting holes of the flange 43.
