Title: A piston valve where the movement of the valve has reduced friction due to a change in a seals compression
Inventor: PHILIP JOHN COLLINS
IPC: F16K1/46
Filed: 2011-05-10
Abstract: A piston valve (100) that minimises friction during movement of the valve piston (140) is disclosed. The valve (100) has a hollow valve body (110) having an inlet port (111) and an outlet port (112), a piston chamber (130) within an interior of the body (110) and a piston (140) reciprocally moveable within the chamber (130). The piston (140) moves between a closed position where the piston (140) closes the valve (100) to fluid flow, and an open position. Within a groove (145) around an outer wall of the piston (140) a sealing element (150) is used to seal between the piston (140) and the chamber (130) wall when the piston is in the closed position. The sealing element (150) has a smaller cross-sectional width than that of the groove (145) with allows the sealing element (150) to roll as the piston (140) moves between the open and closed positions, thus assisting in breaking the initial sticking between the sealing element (150)and the chamber (130) wall. The groove (145) or the inner wall of the chamber (130) has a varying diameter such that when the piston (140) is in the closed position the sealing element (150) is compressed between the groove (145) and the chamber and when the piston (140) moves from the closed towards the open position, the sealing element (150) moves to a position adjacent a smaller diameter that causes a reduction in compression of the sealing element (150). The sealing element (150) may be an o-ring.
