Abstract:
A valve device includes a valve body that forms a throttle cross section and a valve element that sets the throttle cross section depending on the pressure. To avoid pulsation-induced noises, the valve element is configured with a flow-deflecting member that causes action upon the valve element with a transverse force. The flow-deflecting member prevents noise-causing vibrations of the valve element and permits a lower throttling effect of the valve device, in particular when volumetric flows are increased. A damping device, in particular for damping pressure pulsations in a brake circuit of a slip-controllable vehicle brake system, includes the valve device.

Claim (Index 9):
A damping device, comprising:\n a valve device configured to throttle a pressure medium flow in a channel conducting a pressure medium, the valve device including:\n a valve body that forms a throttle cross-section surrounded by a valve seat, and \n a valve element that is received movably in the valve body and sets the throttle cross-section depending on the prevailing pressure conditions, the valve element loaded by an elastic return element against the throughflow direction of the valve device, \n wherein the valve element is configured with a flow-deflecting member that causes a transverse force to act upon the valve element transversely to the throughflow direction of the valve device when the pressure medium flows around the valve element; and \n a pressure medium accumulator connected upstream of the valve device.
