DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] As Figures 1-4 shown: a ball valve, including valve body 1, valve body 1 has valve core 2, valve core 2 and valve body 1 sliding fit, the top of valve core 2 is fixedly connected valve rod 3, valve rod 3 penetrates out valve body 1 top, valve rod 3 and valve body 1 rotationally connected, the top of valve rod 3 is fixedly sleeved worm gear 4, the outside of worm gear 4 has protective shell 5, protective shell 5 and valve body 1 top fixedly connected, protective shell 5 has worm 7 in it, worm 7 is located worm gear 4 right side, worm 7 and worm gear 4 are engaged, the front and rear end outer wall of worm 7 are rotationally connected fixed plate 6, fixed plate 6 extends downward and penetrates protective shell 5, the bottom of fixed plate 6 and valve body 1 fixedly connected, the outer wall of fixed plate 6 and protective shell 5 fixedly connected, the front end of worm 7 penetrates out front fixed plate 6, the front end outer wall of worm 7 is fixedly sleeved gear one 8, the inside front side of protective shell 5 has gear two 11, gear two 11 is rotationally connected with the front side inner wall of protective shell 5 through plane bearing 12, gear two 11 and gear one 8 are engaged, the front side wall middle part of gear two 11 is fixedly inserted rotating shaft 9, the front end of rotating shaft 9 penetrates out the front side wall of protective shell 5, the rear end outer wall of rotating shaft 9 is rotationally connected with protective shell 5 through rolling bearing 10, the front end of rotating shaft 9 is fixedly connected rotating handle 13, the front side wall of protective shell 5 is provided with scale groove 14, scale groove 14 is distributed at equal angles around rotating shaft 9, the outer wall of rotating shaft 9 is fixedly connected pointer 15, pointer 15 is located in the front side of protective shell 5, pointer 15 points to scale groove 14.
