Abstract

A fluid control valve, which is in particular a seat valve ( 2 ), including a valve housing ( 4 ) in which a feed duct ( 10 ) having an inlet ( 6 ) and a discharge duct ( 20 ) having an outlet ( 8 ) for pressurized medium are formed, which are fluidically connected to each other. The fluid control valve additionally includes a closing element ( 16 a, 16 b, 16 c ) which is arranged in the valve housing ( 4 ), that can be moved in an axial direction (A) between an open position and a closed position and, in the closed position, interrupts the fluidic connection between the feed duct ( 10 ) and the discharge duct ( 20 ). Radial feeding of the pressurized medium is ensured in that the feed duct ( 10 ) extends substantially in a radial direction (R) and is separated by an inner partition ( 26 ) from the discharge duct ( 20 ), which surrounds the feed duct ( 10 ) and extends substantially in the axial direction (A).

Claims (10)

1 . A fluid control valve, comprising a valve housing in which there are formed a supply duct with an inlet and a discharge duct with at least one outlet for a pressure medium, said supply duct and said discharge duct being connected to one another by a flow connection, a closing body arranged in the valve housing and which is adjustable in an axial direction (A) between an open position and a closed position and which, in the closed position, blocks the flow connection between the supply duct and the discharge duct, wherein the supply duct extends substantially in a radial direction (R) and is separated from the discharge duct by an inner partition, said discharge duct surrounds the supply duct and extends substantially in an axial direction (A).

2 . The fluid control valve as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a valve seat for the closing body is arranged axially above the supply duct.

3 . The fluid control valve as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a plunger rod interacts with an electromagnet in such a way that, when the electromagnet is energized, the plunger rod holds the closing body in the closed position.

4 . The fluid control valve as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the closing body is formed in one piece with the plunger rod.

5 . The fluid control valve as claimed in claim 1 , wherein in the valve housing there are provided a number of ribs for guidance of the closing body.

6 . The fluid control valve as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the valve housing is a cast part.

7 . The fluid control valve as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the closing body is a ball, a ball segment, a cone or a truncated cone.

8 . The fluid control valve as claimed in claim 1 wherein the closing body has an encircling separation edge.

9 . The fluid control valve as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the separation edge is a collar which has a profiling opposed to a convex surface of the closing body.

10 . The fluid control valve as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the closing body has a guide cylinder which extends axially from the separation edge.
