Definitions
- the present invention relates to a valve for filling a liquefied gas container by means of a refill tank provided with a cylindrical connection, this valve having at least one fixed part, a mobile part slidably mounted in a chamber. axial of the fixed part and a seal, the axial chamber opening out through an orifice on an outer face of the fixed part, the valve having two passages, one being a liquefied gas filling passage and the other a exhaust passage to put the inside of the container in communication with the outside, this valve being intended to be actuated by the introduction of the fitting into the axial chamber to move the moving part and the seal against the action of 'a spring of a closed position, where the seal is in contact with the fixed part and ia movable part so as to close the two passages, to a filling position where the seal is in con tact with the fixed part and the fitting to open your two passages.
- a valve of this type intended in particular to equip a gas lighter, is described in Swiss patent N ° 355,167, and comprises a seal constituted by a ring in the shape of a torus housed in a groove of the fixed part opposite the exhaust passage opening.
- Valves of this type are usually fitted with a cover or plug which must be removed to allow filling.
- this plug is often lost by the user.
- this plug is generally screwed, which complicates the filling operation.
- the plug is frictionally inserted into the orifice and in this case, it is relatively complicated to manufacture, because if it is desired to come flush with the face of the container which is equipped with the valve , it must have a retractable member which can be brought up to allow its extraction, when filling must be carried out.
- the object of the invention is to eliminate the risk of loss of the plug while allowing the filling orifice to be closed by a member constituting a portion of the face of the container which is provided with the valve, when the latter is in position. closing.
- the valve according to the invention is characterized in that the movable part has an end portion whose diameter corresponds to that of said orifice, this end part being shaped so that in the closed position of the valve this part is located substantially in the plane of the external face of the fixed part.
- the seal comprises two portions axially separated by a cylindrical part, a first of these two portions being in contact with the moving part and cooperating with the latter to move the seal from a first position towards a second position when the moving part is moved from the closed position to the filling position, the second portion of the seal being arranged so as to close the exhaust passage when the seal is in said first position and to be clamped between the cylindrical connection and the walls of the axial chamber of the fixed part in a position remote from the passage of exhaust, when the seal is brought axially towards said second position.
- the seal is brought, during filling, by the moving part in a position such that it ensures complete sealing between the fitting and the fixed part. valve and perfect separation of the filling and exhaust passages.
- This construction makes it possible to produce a valve of very safe operation and capable of cooperating with a refill tank provided with a simple cylindrical tip.
- Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of the valve in the closed position.
- Figure 2 illustrates the same valve in the filling position.
- the valve described with reference to FIGS. I and 2 comprises a fixed part made up of two parts I and 2.
- Part I has a thread 3 allowing both to fix the valve in a corresponding threaded bore of a container 5 of liquefied gas whose it allows filling.
- the seal between the valve and the container 5 is ensured by a seal 6.
- the lower edge 7 of part I is bent to retain in position part 2 which has a portion tubular 8 projecting.
- a movable part 9 is slidably mounted in this tubular portion 8 and in an axial chamber 27 of the valve and is sou ⁇ put to the action of a spring 10 bearing, on the one hand, against a shoulder 1 1 of this part and, on the other hand, against the bottom 12 of the part 2.
- This part 9 has at its upper part a portion 13 penetrating into the orifice 35 of the valve body, which is delimited by an internal rim 14
- the upper face 36 of this part comprises at least one radial groove 37 intended to facilitate the flow of the liquefied gas. In the closed position of the valve illustrated in FIG. 1, the upper face of the part 9 comes substantially in the plane of the external face of the part 1.
- the valve shown comprises a seal 15 made of elastomer comprising two annular portions 16, 17 axially separated by a cylindrical part 18.
- a first 16 of these two portions has a substantially rectangular section, of which a first face bears against the cylindrical side
- the interior of the container 5 communicates with this housing 20 by an exhaust passage 21 constituted by a bore 22, a cylindrical space 23 included between the two fixed parts 1, 2 and by openings 2 "V ending in the housing 20.
- the portion 17 completely closes the openings 2 of the exhaust passage, when the valve is closed.
- This exhaust passage is entirely separate from the filling passage 25 of the liquefied gas constituted by openings 26 provided in the bottom 12, ia axial chamber 27 and the longitudinal grooves 28 formed in the upper part 29 of the movable part 9 ( fig. 2). These grooves 28 do not extend to the shoulder 11 to allow the filling of the filling passage 25 to be closed by the first portion 16 of the seal when the valve is closed.
- the moving part 9 is moved by the introduction of the cylindrical filling connector 30 of a refill tank, not shown, in the upper opening 35 of the valve.
- Part 2 of the fixed part comprises, at the level of the housing 20, a ramp 32 against which the portion 17 of the seal is supported. This ramp 32 is arranged so as to bring the portion 17 to a radially more internal position of the valve to come into contact with the cylindrical wall 33 of the connector 30, when the seal 15, in contact with the projection 31, is moved towards the bottom by the moving part 9 (see fig. 2).
- the portion 17 of the seal 9 is entirely enclosed between the connector 30 and the part 2 of the fixed part to ensure complete sealing of the filling passage 25 to the outside.
- the moving part 9 is stopped in its race by a washer 34 abutting against the upper part of the fixed tubular portion 8, while the seal 15 bears by its portion 16 against a shoulder 38 of the chamber 27. Additional pressure on the refill tank opens the latter's check valve against the action of a spring, not shown. It is important that the spring 10 is chosen so that its force is weaker than that of the springs used in the valves of the refill tanks sold.
- the filling valve works as follows:
- the connector 30 is introduced into the orifice 35 and moves the movable part 9 downwards against the action of the spring 10. It is not, at this time, in contact with the portion 17 of the seal 15 .
- the projection 31 then drives the seal 9 through the portion 16 downwards. There is opening of the exhaust passage 21. The portions 17 of the seal, guided by the ramp 32, come into contact with the connector 30 and enclose the latter firmly. The filling passage 25 is completely closed towards the outside.
- the washer 34 abuts against the tubular portion 8. Additional pressure on the refill tank allows the opening of the tank retaining valve and the flow of liquefied gas through the filling passage in the container 5.
- the moving part 9 urged by the spring 10 rises.
- the intake passage is closed and the seal 15 is brought by the movable part 9 upwards.
- the portion 17 enters the housing 20 and closes the openings 24 of the exhaust passage which in turn is then closed.
- the seal 15 is then clamped by the spring 10 between the upper wall of the chamber 20 and the shoulder 11. It thus ensures a sealed closure of the container 5 and constitutes a stop for retaining the part 9 in a position such that its upper face or substantially in the plane of the outer face of the valve body.
