Venting valve for a container for liquids

1. A venting valve for a liquid container, the venting valve comprising:

a valve housing comprising a pressure compensation passage connecting an interior of a liquid container with an exterior of the liquid container;

a valve member arranged in the valve housing, wherein the valve member is adapted to control the pressure compensation passage;

an air-permeable filter body secured within the valve housing by a filter element and covering the pressure compensation passage, wherein a face of the filter body faces the interior of the liquid container;

the filter element covering the face of the filter body that is facing the interior of the liquid container and closing off an opening of the valve housing that opens into the interior of the liquid container;

wherein the filter element comprises a rim and the valve housing comprises locking noses, wherein the rim of the filter element is secured by the locking noses in the valve housing so that filter element supports itself on the locking noses that engage across the rim and the filter element secures the filter body.

2. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein a material of the filter body has a first pore size and the material of the filter element has a second pore size, wherein the second pore size of the filter element is smaller than the first pore size of the filter body.

3. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein the filter element is comprised of a synthetic fabric material.

4. The venting valve according to claim 3 , wherein the synthetic fabric is a polyester spunbond material.

5. A venting valve for a liquid container, the venting valve comprising:

a valve housing comprising a pressure compensation passage connecting an interior of a liquid container with an exterior of the liquid container;

a valve member arranged in the valve housing, wherein the valve member is adapted to control the pressure compensation passage;

an air-permeable filter body secured within the valve housing and covering the pressure compensation passage, wherein a face of the filter body faces the interior of the liquid container;

a filter element arranged on the face of the filter body that is facing the interior of the liquid container;

wherein the filter element completely covers the face of the filter body facing the interior of the liquid container such that the filter element forms a closure of the venting valve relative to the interior of the liquid container, wherein the closure is exposed to the interior of the liquid container and extends across an entire surface area of the face of the air-permeable filter body that faces the interior of the liquid container.

6. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein the filter body is a foamed material filter.

7. The venting valve according to claim 6 , wherein the foamed material filter is cylindrical.

8. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein the filter element is a stamped part.

9. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein the filter element is a bending-elastic shaped part.

10. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein the filter element is a securing plate.

11. The venting valve according to claim 10 , wherein the securing plate is a round securing plate.

12. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein the filter element is axially fixed between a contact surface of the valve housing and locking noses of the valve housing.

13. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein the filter element has a first thickness and the filter body has a second thickness, wherein the first thickness is 5% to 10% of the second thickness.

14. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid container is a fuel tank of a hand-held power tool.

15. The venting valve according to claim 14 , wherein the power tool is a motor chainsaw, a cut-off machine, a trimmer, or a blower.

16. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein the filter element is snapped into the valve housing.

17. The venting valve according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid container comprises a mounting opening and wherein the valve housing comprises a connecting socket that is secured in a locked position in the mounting opening of the liquid container.

18. The venting valve according to claim 17 , wherein the connecting socket comprises axial slots and an outer locking rim engaging an inner edge of the mounting opening of the liquid container.

19. The venting valve according to claim 17 , wherein a stiffness of the filter element secures the locked position of the connecting socket in the mounting opening of the liquid container.

20. A venting valve for a container for liquid, the venting valve comprising:

a valve housing comprising a pressure compensation passage connecting an interior of a container with an exterior of the container;

a valve member arranged in the valve housing, wherein the valve member is adapted to control the pressure compensation passage;

an air-permeable filter body secured within the valve housing by a filter element and covering the pressure compensation passage, wherein a face of the filter body faces the interior of the container;

the filter element covering the face of the filter body that is facing the interior of the container, wherein the filter element is comprised of a polyester spunbond fabric material;

wherein only the filter element secures the filter body in the valve housing;

wherein the filter element closes off an opening of the valve housing that opens into the interior of the container.
