<p>The valve structure (1) comprises a valve body (2) which defines an inlet port and an outlet port, wherebetween a spherical shutter (5) is interposed; the shutter (5) has a diametrical passage port (6) and can be actuated by a stem (7) which is rotatably supported by the valve body (2). The peculiarity of the invention resides in the fact that it comprises a lock cylinder (17) associable with the stem (7) and supported in a seat defined by at least one actuation element (21) rotatably associated with the valve body (2). The lock cylinder (17) engages a diametrically movable slider (31) which can be inserted in a notch (40) defined by the valve body (2), when the valve (1) is in at least one preset position, so as to releasably lock the rotation of the stem (7).</p> |
