[0027] When the fire hydrant is impacted, the connecting bolt 8 will break, so that the plug body 9 and the valve body 6 are separated, and the shear pin clutch 25 breaks, so that the connection between the connecting rod 21 and the screw rod 27 is disconnected, so that the plug body 9 and its internal components are separated from the valve body 6 and its internal components. Such a breaking design can absorb the impact force caused by the impact to protect the fire hydrant from serious damage. When repairing, only the shear pin clutch 25 and the connecting bolt 8 need to be replaced, which reduces the maintenance cost, shortens the maintenance time and interruption time, improves the safety of the device, ensures the stability of the structure in the valve body 6, prevents water leakage, and prevents water leakage. Secondly, the design of the pin 20 enables the components that drive the valve disc 29 to be modularized, facilitating the replacement of damaged components, and when the valve rod 17 encounters an abnormally large external force or torque, the pin 20 can break, which can protect the components in the fire hydrant and play an overload protection role, improving the protection performance of the device.

[0028] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any skilled person in the art can make equivalent substitutions or changes to the technical solutions and concepts of the present application within the technical scope disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
