Abstract

A valve insert ( 8 a, 8 b ) for a valve, in particular for a control valve ( 2 ) for controlling pressure-medium streams of a camshaft adjuster, includes an insert housing ( 10 ), in which a filter ( 12 ) and a non-return valve ( 14 ) with a closing element ( 24 ) and a seat element ( 20 ) are integrated. A configuration of the valve insert which is easy to install is ensured by at least the insert housing ( 10 ), the filter ( 12 ) and the seat element ( 20 ) being connected non-detachably to one another and forming one preassembled structural unit ( 40 ).

Claims (9)

1. A valve insert for a valve, comprising an insert housing in which a filter and also a non-return valve are integrated with a closing element and a seat element, wherein at least the insert housing, the filter and the seat element are connected to each other in a non-detachable way and form a preassembled structural unit, wherein the seat element has a contact surface, and openings are formed around a periphery of the contact surface, and a collar with the openings is constructed around the contact surface.

2. The valve insert according to claim 1 , wherein the closing element has a flat construction and covers an opening in the seat element in a fluid-tight way in a closed position.

3. The valve insert according to claim 1 , wherein a filter frame of the filter is injection molded around the contact surface.

4. The valve insert according to claim 1 , wherein the contact surface is part of the insert housing.

5. The valve insert according to claim 3 , wherein the insert housing forms the filter frame.

6. The valve insert according to claim 5 , wherein the collar is a Z-shaped collar that is injection molded from a material of the insert housing.

7. The valve insert according to claim 1 , wherein clips for a snap-on connection to the valve are formed on the insert housing.

8. A valve, comprising a valve housing with a hollow construction and with at least one feed connection (P) and at least one discharge connection (T), and a valve insert according to claim 1 is mounted on the valve housing.

9. The valve of claim 8 , wherein the valve is a control valve for controlling flows of pressurized medium in a camshaft adjuster.
