[0031] Please see Figures 1-6A fire-fighting butterfly valve regulating mechanism for fire protection facilities includes a valve body 1, a valve 2 disposed inside the valve body 1, a rotating rod 3 fixedly connected to the valve 2, the rotating rod 3 being rotatably connected to the valve body 1, a fixed box 4 fixedly fixed to the top of the valve body 1, a circular seat 5 fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod 3 extending into the fixed box 4, a locking mechanism disposed on the fixed box 4, a connecting rod 6 fixedly connected to the top of the circular seat 5, a circular plate 7 fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod 6, a pointer 8 fixedly connected to the top of the circular plate 7, a sealing cover 9 installed on the top of the fixed box 4, a sealing gasket 35 disposed between the sealing cover 9 and the fixed box 4 to ensure the sealing of the connection between the sealing cover 9 and the fixed box 4, and a corresponding position on the sealing cover 9 corresponding to the circular plate 7. A circular groove 10 is provided, the diameter of which is smaller than that of the circular plate 7. The circular plate 7 blocks the circular groove 10, preventing people from observing the internal structure. A transparent plate 11 is installed inside the circular groove 10, and scale lines 12 are provided on the transparent plate 11. An adjusting plate 13 is connected to the fixed box 4 through an adjusting component. The adjusting plate 13 slides with the fixed box 4. Multiple limiting posts 34 are fixedly connected inside the fixed box 4, which limit the adjustment plate 13. The adjusting plate 13 and the sealing cover 9 are connected to a driving component that drives the rotating rod 3 to rotate. The pointer 8 points to the position on the scale line 12, which makes it easy to observe the opening degree of the valve 2 and make accurate adjustment of the valve 2 opening degree, thus improving its practicality.

[0032] Specifically, during the rotation of the rotating rod 3 and valve 2 by the drive assembly, the rotating rod 3 drives the round seat 5, connecting rod 6, round plate 7 and pointer 8 to rotate. People can observe the position of pointer 8 through the transparent plate 11 and judge the opening degree of valve 2 by observing the position of pointer 8 on the scale line 12. This makes it easier for people to accurately adjust the opening degree of valve 2 and improves its practicality.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The drive assembly includes a first gear 19 and a second gear 20. An adjusting plate 13 is rotatably connected to a second rotating shaft 21. A square tube 22 is fixedly connected to the top end of the second rotating shaft 21.

The square column 25 is inserted into the inside of the square tube 22. A large handle 26 is fixedly connected to the top end of the third rotating shaft 24 to facilitate the rotation of the third rotating shaft 24. The large handle 26 facilitates the rotation of the third rotating shaft 24.

[0034] Specifically, by rotating the large throttle 26, the large throttle 26 drives the third rotating shaft 24, square column 25, square tube 22, second rotating shaft 21 and first gear 19 to rotate. The first gear 19 drives the second gear 20, rotating rod 3 and valve 2 to rotate, which facilitates the control of the opening and closing of the butterfly valve.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 The adjustment assembly includes a first screw 14, which is threadedly connected to the adjustment plate 13. The bottom end of the first screw 14 is rotatably connected to the fixed box 4. A regular polygonal post 15 is provided at the top end of the first screw 14. A first rotating shaft 16 is rotatably connected to the sealing cover 9. A regular polygonal groove 17 that matches the regular polygonal post 15 is provided at the bottom end of the first rotating shaft 16. A small handle 18 is fixedly connected to the top end of the first rotating shaft 16 to facilitate the rotation of the first rotating shaft 16.

[0036] Specifically, the small throttle 18 drives the first rotating shaft 16, the regular polygonal column 15 and the first screw 14 to rotate clockwise. The rotation of the first screw 14 causes the adjusting plate 13 to move upward. The adjusting plate 13 drives the second rotating shaft 21, the square tube 22 and the first gear 19 to move upward, so that the first gear 19 and the second gear 20 are separated, which can prevent outsiders from rotating the drive components to adjust the valve 2.

[0037] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 5 The locking mechanism includes two telescopic rods 27 and an adjusting seat 28. The two telescopic rods 27 are fixedly installed inside the fixed box 4. The adjusting seat 28 is fixedly connected to the side ends of the two telescopic rods 27. A locking post 29 is fixedly connected to one end of the adjusting seat 28 near the round seat 5. Multiple locking grooves 30 are evenly arranged on the outside of the round seat 5. A second screw 32 is fixedly connected to the side end of the adjusting seat 28. A threaded tube 31 is threadedly connected to the outside of the second screw 32. The threaded tube 31 is rotatably connected to the fixed box 4. A rotating handle 33 is fixedly connected to the side end of the threaded tube 31 to facilitate the fixing of the round seat 5, the rotating rod 3, and the valve 2.

[0038] Specifically, by rotating the handle 33 and the threaded tube 31 counterclockwise, the threaded tube 31 rotates, causing the second screw 32 to move closer to the round seat 5. The second screw 32 drives the adjusting seat 28 and the locking pin 29 to move, so that the locking pin 29 is inserted into the corresponding locking groove 30, which facilitates the fixation of the round seat 5, the rotating rod 3, and the valve 2, ensuring the stability of the valve 2 after it is opened to a certain degree. By rotating the handle 33 and the threaded tube 31 clockwise, the threaded tube 31 rotates, causing the second screw 32 to move away from the round seat 5. The second screw 32 drives the adjusting seat 28 and the locking pin 29 to move, so that the locking pin 29 is separated from the locking groove 30, which facilitates the rotation of the round seat 5, the rotating rod 3, and the valve 2 through the drive assembly.

[0039] In summary, when using the overall equipment:

[0040] The small throttle 18 drives the first rotating shaft 16, the regular polygonal column 15, and the first screw 14 to rotate counterclockwise. The rotation of the first screw 14 causes the adjusting plate 13 to move downward. The adjusting plate 13 drives the second rotating shaft 21, the square tube 22, and the first gear 19 to move upward. When the bottom end of the adjusting plate 13 contacts the top end of the multiple limiting columns 34, the first gear 19 meshes with the second gear 20. Then, the rotating handle 33 and the threaded tube 31 are rotated clockwise. The rotation of the threaded tube 31 causes the second screw 32 to move away from the round seat 5. The second screw 32 drives the adjusting seat 28 and the locking pin 29 to move, causing the locking pin 29 to separate from the locking groove 30. Then, the large throttle 26 is rotated. The large throttle 26 drives the third rotating shaft 24, the square column 25, the square tube 22, the second rotating shaft 21, and the first gear 19 to rotate. The first gear 19 drives the second gear 20, the rotating rod 3, and the valve 2 to rotate. At the same time, the rotating rod... 3 drives the circular seat 5, connecting rod 6, circular plate 7 and pointer 8 to rotate. People observe the position of pointer 8 through transparent plate 11. By observing the position of pointer 8 on the scale line 12, they judge the opening degree of valve 2. After opening valve 2 to a certain degree, rotate handle 33 and threaded tube 31 counterclockwise. The rotation of threaded tube 31 causes the second screw 32 to move closer to the side of the circular seat 5. The second screw 32 drives the adjusting seat 28 and the locking pin 29 to move, so that the locking pin 29 is inserted into the corresponding locking groove 30, fixing the circular seat 5, rotating rod 3 and valve 2. Then, the small handle 18 drives the first rotating shaft 16, regular polygonal column 15 and first screw 14 to rotate clockwise. The rotation of the first screw 14 causes the adjusting plate 13 to move upward. The adjusting plate 13 drives the second rotating shaft 21, square tube 22 and first gear 19 to move upward, so that the first gear 19 and the second gear 20 are separated.
