Abstract

A one-way valve device for air compressors including a disc-shaped element having a plurality of holes for flow of the air distributed along a portion having a circular crown extension, a sheet superposed on the disc-shaped element for occluding the holes, the sheet being susceptible to lifting due to the pushing action exerted by the air flowing through the holes, a spring opposing the lifting of the sheet, a containment and covering dome.

Claims (31)

1. A one-way valve device for air compressors comprising:

a disc-shaped element including having a plurality of holes for flow of the air, the holes being distributed along a portion having a circular crown extension,

a sheet superposed on the disc-shaped element for occluding the holes, the sheet being susceptible to lifting due to a pushing action exerted by the air flowing through the holes,

a spring opposing the lifting of the sheet,

a containment and covering dome, the containment and covering dome housing the spring and the sheet and including:

an externally threaded cylindrical first portion:

a cylindrical second portion including at least one lateral surface;

a plurality of first openings for the flow of the air, the first openings being positioned on the at least one lateral surface.

2. The valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the sheet is shaped as a circular crown and includes a plurality of radial protruding portions, the radial protruding portions being configured for centering the sheet with respect to a cylindrical inner surface of the containment and covering dome.

3. The valve device according to claim 2 , wherein the radial protruding portions are distributed at equal angular intervals along a circumference of the sheet.

4. The valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the containment and covering done includes interposed between the externally threaded cylindrical first portion and the cylindrical second portion, a gripping zone with a hexagonal shape configured to engage a clamping tool.

5. The valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the containment and covering dome includes a top third portion, emerging from the cylindrical second portion and including a second opening for flow of the air.

6. The valve device according to claim 5 , wherein the third top third portion includes a covering plate configured to direct the air flowing through the second opening, transversally relative to a central axis of the cylindrical second portion.

7. The valve device according to claim 1 , wherein the disc-shaped element includes inner and outer concentric edges configured to make contact with the sheet.

8. A valve head for a compressor comprising the valve device according to claim 1 .

9. The valve head according to claim 8 , and further comprising at least one flexible lamina valve.

10. A one-way valve device for air compressors comprising:

a disc-shaped element including a plurality of holes for flow of the air, the holes being distributed along a portion having a circular crown extension,

a sheet superposed on the disc-shaped element for occluding the holes, the sheet being susceptible to lifting due to a pushing action exerted by the air flowing through the holes,

a spring opposing the lifting of the sheet,

a containment and covering dome, the containment and covering dome housing the spring and the sheet and including:

an externally threaded cylindrical first portion:

a cylindrical second portion including a plurality of laterally oriented first openings for the flow of the air.

11. The valve device according to claim 10 , wherein the sheet is shaped as a circular crown and includes a plurality of radial protruding portions, the radial protruding portions being configured for centering the sheet with respect to a cylindrical inner surface of the containment and covering dome.

12. The valve device according to claim 11 , wherein the radial protruding portions are distributed at equal angular intervals along a circumference of the sheet.

13. The valve device according to claim 10 , wherein the containment and covering dome includes, interposed between the externally threaded cylindrical first portion and the cylindrical second portion, a gripping zone with a hexagonal shape configured to engage a clamping tool.

14. The valve device according to claim 10 , wherein the containment and covering dome includes a top third portion, emerging from the cylindrical second portion and including a second opening for flow of the air.

15. The valve device according to claim 14 , wherein the top third portion includes a covering plate configured to direct the air flowing through the second opening, transversally relative to a central axis of the cylindrical second portion.

16. The valve device according to claim 10 , wherein the disc-shaped element includes inner and outer concentric edges configured to make contact with the sheet.

17. A valve head for a compressor comprising the valve device according to claim 10 .

18. The valve head according to claim 17 , and further comprising at least one flexible lamina valve.
