Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of ball valves, specifically a novel three-piece forged steel double-ball fixed ball valve. Background Technology
[0002] A ball valve is a type of valve that controls the flow of fluid by rotating a ball. The opening and closing element of a ball valve is a ball with a circular through hole. The ball is driven by the valve stem and rotates around the axis of the ball valve. When the ball rotates to a specific position, the hole on it aligns with or offsets with the channel of the valve body, thereby realizing the flow of fluid. Ball valves are widely used in industries such as petroleum refining, long-distance pipelines, chemical industry, papermaking, pharmaceutical industry, water conservancy, power, municipal engineering, and steel, and occupy a pivotal position in the national economy.
