The valve body adopts a spherical structure, the ball valve core (ball) is moved up and down to realize opening and closing of the valve. The sealing element is responsible for ensuring the sealing performance of the valve to avoid fluid leakage. The piston and the actuator are used to transmit the hydraulic signal and control the opening and closing state of the ball valve. In the gas-liquid linkage ball valve, the operation of the valve handle (valve rod) is transmitted through the hydraulic signal and fed back by the ball valve core. There is a spring between the ball valve core and the piston to ensure that there is always a certain contact force between the ball valve core and the piston. When the valve is opened or closed, the hydraulic signal is input from the operating rod and transmitted between the piston and the ball valve core. If the valve is to be opened, the gas source will push the piston through the hydraulic signal, the ball valve core will also move up and open the valve.

Considering that the impurities in the pipeline may block the pressure lead pipe, in addition to the casting process to integrate the pressure lead pipe with the valve, the telescopic pressure lead pipe can also be made, that is, it can be inserted into the valve body or pulled out for cleaning.

It has the following advantages:

[0055] 1. The pressure pipe and the ball valve are integrated to prevent deformation of the pressure pipe caused by external factors such as ground subsidence and wind, which may cause leakage.

[0056] 2. The pressure pipe is integrated with the ball valve, the pressure pipe can be cast in the ball valve seat by casting method, welding is not needed, so the process is simple and the safety factor is high.
