Claims (13)

1. A non-return valve, comprising:

a housing;

a guiding element mounted in the housing, wherein the guiding element has a frame structure with guide rails;

a floating element mounted in the guiding element, having a transitional motion with respect to the guiding element, wherein the floating element has a hemispherical structure on an external side and a hollow structure on an internal side;

a support plate positioned below the floating element; and

a plurality of sealing elements mounted in the housing;

wherein the guiding element enables the transitional motion to the floating element seated on at least one of the plurality of sealing elements, so as to move from a first position to a second position within the guiding element and thereupon to return to the first position.

2. The non-return valve as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the floating element has a curvature at one end of the hemispherical structure on the external side.

3. The non-return valve as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the support plate is mounted below the curvature of the hemispherical structure of the floating element.
