Axial fluid valves having linear actuators.

摘要

Axial fluid control valves having linear actuators are described herein. An example axial fluid control valve described herein includes a valve body defining a passageway between an inlet and an outlet. The example axial fluid valve includes a plug linkage assembly movable relative to the axial valve body and along a first axis substantially aligned with the passageway. The example axial fluid valve includes a linear actuator having a stem operatively coupled to the plug linkage assembly. The linear actuator is to move at least a portion of the plug linkage assembly along the first axis within the passageway to vary a flow of fluid through the passageway, wherein the stem of the linear actuator moves along a second axis different than the first axis.
