A GATE VALVE FOR HIGH-DENSITY SLURRIES, AND A VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY, AND A SOLIDS-CONTAINING WALL LINING MEANS THEREFOR

摘要

Flexible, plastic, solids-containing liners or panels are disposed in the chamber of the valve body for contacting, interfacing engage- ment with the gate. Accordingly the panels and gate substantially fully occupy the chamber, and prevent an entry of slurry solids thereinto. The panels are rubber-backed to insure that the panels are pressed, sealingly against the flat faces of the gate and are arranged in parallel with the chamber walls.
