Abstract:
An exhaust valve assembly for a bottle attachment apparatus for handling liquids has a valve housing which forms a valve chamber having an inlet and an outlet, an exhaust valve body disposed on the inlet in the valve chamber, and a safety valve body disposed on the outlet in the valve chamber. The exhaust valve body is biased toward an exhaust valve seat, counter to the flow direction of the liquid and the safety valve body is biased toward a safety valve seat in the flow direction of the liquid. The safety valve seat is integrally molded on the valve housing.

Claim (Index 1):
A bottle attachment apparatus for handling liquids, comprising:\n a cylinder-and-piston assembly for suctioning and exhausting liquid, a valve block assembly, and a fastening assembly for fastening the valve block assembly on a storage bottle,\n wherein the valve block assembly has a valve block, an exhaust valve assembly, and a valve receptacle assigned to the exhaust valve assembly, \n wherein the exhaust valve assembly has a valve housing which forms a valve chamber having an inlet and an outlet, and which is insertable into the valve receptacle of the valve block in a replaceable and sealing manner, and \n wherein the exhaust valve assembly comprises at least one of: \n a) an exhaust line assembly with an exhaust line, and a return flow duct that terminates in a return flow inlet in the valve block, a switching valve being disposed upstream of the exhaust line in a liquid flow direction and to which the exhaust line is connected downstream, and in which a connector end is plug- or push-fittable into or onto the outlet of the valve housing, and a return flow connector is plug- or push-finable into or onto the return flow inlet of the valve block and is disposed on the switching valve so as to be upstream thereof, b) an exhaust line assembly with an exhaust line, and a return flow duct that terminates in a return flow inlet in the valve block, a line adaptor being disposed upstream of the exhaust line in a liquid flow direction and to which the exhaust line is connected downstream, and in which a connector end which is plug- or push-fittable into or onto the outlet of the valve housing, and a return flow connector which is plug- or push-fittable into or onto the return flow inlet of the valve block so as to be upstream thereof, wherein the connector end in the line adaptor is connected to the exhaust line which is connected downstream, and wherein the return flow connector is a closed blind connector by way of which the return flow inlet of the valve block is closeable.
