PRESSURE-RELIEF VALVE DEVICE

摘要

A pressure-relief valve device has a housing with bores for admitting and discharging pressure fluid. The fluid admitted to the housing passes via a hollow member or sleeve to a valve inlet. The sleeve has at its upper end a chamfered seating surface for engaging with a sealing surface of a valve member and these surfaces form the valve. The valve member has a head with the sealing surface at its periphery and a stem which is guided within the sleeve. The stem is axially and circumferentially grooved to allow pressure fluid to pass through the housing to flush dirt away from the valve inlet even while the valve is closed. Opposed spring forces bias the surfaces of the valve together and a stop member limits the movement of the sleeve. The spring or springs acting on the valve member engage on a support member and this support member engages via a punctiform contact with a thrust piece. The support member and thrust piece are guided within a bore in the stop member and the thrust piece protrudes from this bore to engage over the entire end face of the head of the valve member.
