The invention relates to a device for blocking and releasing a fluid flow having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. A main opening is disposed between the inlet and the outlet and associated with a main blocking clement that can seal off the main opening. An actuation device can move the main blocking element from the open position to the closed position, and the main blocking element is disposed in the closed position such that an increased fluid pressure at the fluid inlet relative to the fluid outlet brings about a press force holding the main blocking element in the closed position. A fluid overflow path is provided between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet that can be sealed off by the actuation device. The main blocking element can be released by the actuation device and the fluid overflow path can be opened by the actuation device. In the release position, an opening force for moving the main blocking element into the open position can be applied thereto, so that it remains in the closed position only as long as the fluid pressure over-compensates for the opening force. |
