Abstract: A valve assembly includes a valve body, with an inlet, an outlet, and a chamber extending between the inlet and the outlet, an actuator, and an actuation sub-assembly. Positioned in the chamber is a valve ball with a ball body and a transverse passage extending through the ball body. The valve ball is positionable between a valve open position wherein said transverse passage provides fluid communication between the inlet and the outlet and a valve closed position wherein the ball body blocks the fluid communication between the inlet and the outlet. The actuation sub-assembly engages the actuator, which in turn engages the valve ball. In addition, the valve body includes a valve body wall with a planar portion. The planar portion includes a mounting surface for mounting the actuation sub-assembly to the valve body. When the actuation sub-assembly is mounted to the valve body, the actuator extends through the planar portion of the valve body wall for engagement with the engagement surface of the valve ball and for engagement with the actuator sub-assembly.

Abstract translation: 阀组件包括阀体，具有入口，出口和在入口和出口之间延伸的腔室，致动器和致动子组件。 位于腔室中的是具有球体和延伸穿过球体的横向通道的阀球。 阀球可位于阀打开位置之间，其中所述横向通道提供入口和出口之间的流体连通，以及阀关闭位置，其中球体阻挡入口和出口之间的流体连通。 致动子组件接合致动器，致动器又接合阀球。 此外，阀体包括具有平面部分的阀体壁。 平面部分包括用于将致动子组件安装到阀体的安装表面。 当致动子组件安装到阀体时，致动器延伸穿过阀体壁的平面部分，用于与阀球的接合表面接合并与致动器子组件接合。
