Gas flow regulator valve

摘要

An improved fluid control valve assembly employing a needle valve integrally formed on a non-rotating valve stem includes a metering orifice for engaging and forming a fluid seal with the valve needle, and a generally radially extending end face on the valve stem for engaging an opposing wall surface acting to positively stop the valve stem upon fully closing the valve and forming a seal between the metering orifice and valve needle to thereby avoid excessive loads and wear between the metering orifice and valve needle.
