Abstract
A bleed valve includes a housing. The housing includes an inlet and an outlet with a cylindrical flow path defined between the inlet and the outlet. A diametral plane is defined diametrically spanning the cylindrical flow path. A butterfly disc inside the housing is rotatably mounted to the housing along a rotation axis for rotation between an open position and a closed position. A link rotatably is connected to a pivot point on the butterfly disc for relative rotation of the link and the butterfly disc along a pivot axis parallel to the rotation axis. The pivot axis is on an opposite side of the diametral plane from the rotation axis.
