Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a tapping device, specifically a tapping device used in the production of valve fittings. Background Technology
[0002] Valves are pipeline accessories used to open and close pipelines, control flow direction, and regulate and control the parameters (temperature, pressure, and flow rate) of the transported medium. Based on their function, they can be divided into shut-off valves, check valves, regulating valves, etc. Valves are control components in fluid transport systems, possessing functions such as shut-off, regulation, flow diversion, backflow prevention, pressure stabilization, flow splitting, or overflow pressure relief. Valves used in fluid control systems range from the simplest shut-off valves to various valves used in extremely complex automatic control systems, with a wide variety of types and specifications. Valve fittings require tapping during production, necessitating the use of tapping equipment. Existing tapping equipment lacks positioning capabilities, causing valve fittings to easily shift during tapping, resulting in scrapped parts. Therefore, a new tapping equipment for valve fitting production needs to be designed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content
