It has the characteristics of low fluid resistance, simple structure, small size, light weight, high reliability, easy operation, etc. It is widely used. The ball valve consists of a valve body, a sphere, a water hole, a valve stem, and a rotating rod. When using the ball valve, the valve body is installed between the pipes, and the rotating rod is rotated to rotate the ball, thereby changing the position of the water hole and the water flows out of the water hole. When closing, the rotating rod is rotated to rotate the ball, so that water cannot flow out of the water hole.

[0032] Working principle:
[0033] When using the ball valve, the valve body 1 is installed between the pipes, and the rotating rod 5 is rotated to rotate the ball 6, thereby changing the position of the water hole 7 and allowing water to flow out of the water hole 7. When closing, the rotating rod 5 is rotated to rotate the ball 6, thereby preventing water from flowing out of the water hole 7. When it is necessary to prevent the rotating rod 5 from being accidentally touched and rotated, the worker holds the grip 210 and rotates it, so that the rotating ring 28 rotates, and the triangular block 29 rotates, so that the square rod 26 on the circular ring 24 is pushed, and the U-shaped rod 25 is pushed, so that the U-shaped rod 25 is stuck in the arc surface of the circular column 23, thereby limiting the circular block 22 in the installation cavity 21, and limiting the valve stem 4, thereby preventing the rotating rod 5 from being accidentally touched and rotated to the greatest extent possible and causing the ball valve to open. Function, insert the pin 211 into the valve body 1, limit the rotating ring 28, and reset the U-shaped rod 25 by setting the first spring 27. When installing the ball valve to the pipeline, slide the auxiliary ring 31 to the arc surface of the pipeline, and then close the ball valve to the pipeline, and then insert the rod 33 into the auxiliary ring 31, so that the positioning block 34 is stuck in the rod 33, so that the two auxiliary rings 31 are fixed to each other. The rod 33 is controlled to move by the operating rod 37, and at the same time, the second spring 38 resets the positioning block 34, so that the two auxiliary rings 31 are fixed to each other. Under the action of the baffle 32, the ball valve is limited to the pipeline, thereby assisting the installation of the ball valve. By setting the first sliding surface 35 and the second sliding surface 36, the rod 33 is assisted in being inserted into the auxiliary ring 31.
