1. A pressurised cylinder having a shut-off valve, the shut-off valve comprising a valve element which seals with the valve seat, a valve stem coupled to the valve element, the valve stem being movable linearly to selectively move the valve element towards and away from the valve seat to selectively open the valve; a lever coupled via an eccentric coupling to the valve stem, such that rotation of the lever about a pivot axis causes the linear movement of the valve element; wherein between the eccentric coupling and the valve stem, there is an amount of play in the direction of opening of the valve, the cylinder further comprising a resilient member which provides a biasing force on the eccentric coupling when the valve is closed which holds the eccentric coupling and hence the lever in a fully closed position. |
