<p>A regulator for controlling the pressure of flowing fluid and also for selectively fully enabling or stopping the flow. The regulator valve includes a valve housing having an inlet passage and an outlet passage connected by a flow passage with a seat surrounding the flow passage. A valve member is movable toward and away from contact with the seat. A control housing is attached to the valve housing. An elongated rod connected at one end to the valve member has an opposite end extending into the control housing. A rod piston is connected to the opposite end of the elongated rod and is movable in the control housing in sealing engagement with the walls thereof. A compression spring is provided to bias the rod piston and the valve member in directions either toward or away from sealing engagement with the flow passage seat. An auxiliary piston is positioned in the control housing on the side of the rod piston away from the seat. An extender is formed on the auxiliary piston and is engageable with the rod piston to maintain a minimum spacing between the rod piston and the auxiliary piston. Alternately a cup-shaped member with an extender could be on the rod piston. First and second ports and a vent port are formed in the control housing and can be alternately connected by conduits to deliver pressure to move the valve member toward or away from the valve seat. A solenoid operated control valve or similar device is positioned in the conduit leading from the inlet passage for controlling the flow of fluid in this conduit.</p> |
