Abstract:
A multi-port valve is disclosed that includes a valve body having an outer surface, an inner surface that defines an internal cavity, an upper end, a lower end, a stop member extending from the upper end, a plurality of output ports for transmitting a liquid to respective outputs, and an input port for receiving the liquid from an input. The multi-port valve also includes a directional component positioned in the internal cavity and configured to be rotated relative to the valve body, where the directional component includes a stop member and defines an outer surface that includes a channel for directing the liquid from the input port to one of the plurality of output ports when the directional component is in a first rotational position and a blocking extension that extends through the channel to prevent the channel from completely extending around the circumference. The multi-port valve also includes a cover rotationally coupled to the directional component for rotating the directional component relative to the valve body.

Claim (Index 9):
The multi-port valve of  claim 7 , further comprising an alignment member connected to the cover, the alignment member including a protrusion configured to be received by a bore of the valve body.
