Blade type check valve
The invention relates to a blade-type check valve for gaseous and liquid media, to be used in medical technologies as well as in waste water technology with at least three triangular blades, grouped in round configuration at the edges of a polygonal bore of a valve ring or housing, with the number of blades corresponding to the number of faces of the bore. At least at one of the three sides, the valve blades feature an integrated joint, which may also consist of fabric, whereas the two other sides of the valve blades form an articulated lock. The valve can be installed in any position and closes automatically, actuated by the backflow respectively return flow of the medium, without external energy.
1. An automatically working blade-type check valve, operated without external energy supply, opened and closed by the current of a gaseous or liquid medium, comprising n (at least three) triangular-shaped or triangular valve blades, the valve blades being thicker-walled in a middle area and thinner-walled toward all edges and tips of the valve blades, essentially grouped in circular configuration around a polygonal (n corners) through hole or bore of a valve ring, at one side accommodated by at least one hinge element each, each of the valve blades being integral with the at least one hinge element.
2. A blade-type check valve according to claim 1 , further comprising elastic preloading elements between the valve blades, intended for synchronization of the movement of the valve blades.
3. A blade-type check valve according to claim 2 , wherein the valve blades, the valve ring, and the elastic preloading elements are manufactured together as one piece.
4. A blade-type check valve according to claim 1 , further comprising an open pyramidal grid structure at the valve ring, acting as a support and improved seal of the valve blades, the opening of the valve blades being limited by leaning bulge-shaped ribs at a rear side of the valve blades on a case.
5. A blade-type check valve according to claim 1 , wherein the valve ring is placed in, or is a part of, a cylindrical and tubular case.
6. A blade-type check valve according to claim 5 , wherein the opening of the valve blades is limited by leaning bulge-shaped reinforcement material projection at a rear side of the valve blades on an inner wall of the case.
7. A blade-type check valve according to claim 6 , wherein the valve blades and the valve ring are manufactured together as one piece.
8. A blade-type check valve according to claim 1 , further comprising elastic preloading elements between the valve blades and the valve ring, intended for closing the valve blades.
9. A blade-type check valve according to claim 8 , wherein the valve blades, the valve ring, and the elastic preloading elements are manufactured together as one piece.
10. An automatically working blade-type check valve, operated without external energy supply, opened and closed by the current of a gaseous or liquid medium, comprising n (at least three) triangular-shaped or triangular valve blades, essentially grouped in circular configuration around a polygonal (n corners) through hole or bore of a valve ring, at one side accommodated by at least one hinge each,
wherein each valve blade requires one right lateral blade and one left lateral blade, each right lateral blade and each left lateral blade being connected by a joint to a respective valve blade in a swiveling configuration, and each of the right lateral blades of a valve blade is connected to the left lateral blade of the right adjacent valve blade, essentially in a swiveling manner.
11. A blade-type check valve according to claim 10 , wherein the mutually connected right and left lateral blades of adjacent valve blades form a joint disposing of a swiveling angle limited to 180°, such that during closure of the valve, the lateral blades radially move towards outside, from the center axis in star shaped orientation, being placed over each other behind the main blades in a folded manner.
12. A blade-type check valve according to claim 11 , wherein the joints between the valve blades and the lateral blades and the joints between the lateral blades are provided only partially, and/or only to a certain quantity.
13. A blade-type check valve, operated without external energy supply, opened and closed by the current of a gaseous or liquid medium, comprising n (at least three) triangular-shaped or triangular valve blades, essentially grouped in circular configuration around a polygonal (n corners) through hole or bore of a valve ring, at one side accommodated by at least one hinge element each, wherein edges on both a right side and a left side of each of the valve blades are at least partially designed as complementary parts such that one of the edges of each of the valve blades inserts into another of the edges of an adjacent one of the valve blades during closure of the blade-type check valves.
