摘要

A rotationally actuated flapper valve including a flapper; a sinuous edge perimetrically about the flapper; and a congruous sinuous edge disposed at another component of the valve, the component being rotatable to misalign the congruous sinuous edge with the sinuous edge of the flapper whereby the flapper is urged out of a closed position and method.
