<p>A valve construction comprising a molded body including a plurality of body sections each having a generally flat inner surface. The flat surfaces of the body sections are disposed in contiguous relation along an interface. Each surface has a plurality of recesses that mate with complementary recesses in the surface of the other body section to form compartments in the assembled body, and operating components, such as valves, are located in the compartments. The movable elements of the operating components move in a direction parallel to the plane of the interface. Each surface also has a plurality of channel portions mating with complementary channel portions in the other surface to form channels that interconnect the compartments. Each surface also includes a plurality of port sections which mate with port sections in the other surface to form ports which establish communication between the channels and the exterior of the body.</p> |
