Layout of the air operated pinch valve with internal thread connection

The structure of the air operated pinch valves with internal thread connection encompasses the sleeve - the essential part of every pinch valve - a body and two collar caps. The pinch sleeve is positioned in the centre of the air operated pinch valve body; both of its ends are pressed in by the collar caps, thus forming a compact unit.
