Compressor valve

摘要

A novel compressor valve is disclosed. Generally, the valve includes a valve guard containing a flange portion formed thereon. The valve will contain a valve seat adapted to engage the valve guard. The valve contains a first sealing plate and a second sealing plate received within the valve. The first and second sealing plate will cooperate in order to allow flow in only one direction. In the preferred embodiment, the compressor valve further comprises a biasing member adapted for biasing the first sealing plate with the second sealing plate. The first and second sealing plates are removable and may be replaced as a unit.
