The specific role of rectifier diodes in circuit diagrams

What is the specific role of rectifier diodes in circuits, and what is the special role that rectifier diodes play in practical applications?

In the rectifier diode circuit, the main function is to prevent a sudden decrease in input voltage or accidental short circuit, and to timely release the charge of the large capacitor at the output end, thereby protecting the three terminal voltage regulator from breakdown.

When the output voltage is higher than the input voltage, the voltage is released through a rectifier diode. When the output voltage of a three terminal voltage regulator is greater than the input voltage, the three terminals are easily damaged.
