Safety valve

A safety valve configured for permitting or preventing a gas flow to a gas combustion appliance, the safety valve comprising:

• a valve body having a gas inlet conduit, a gas outlet conduit;
• a valve body housing formed by the valve body that communicates the inlet conduit with the outlet conduit;
• a magnetic group at least partially housed in the valve body housing, the magnetic group comprising:
• a casing located inside the valve body housing;
• a shutter configured to control the flow of gas between the gas inlet conduit and the gas outlet conduit, the shutter residing outside the casing;
• an electromagnet that includes a core and a winding wound about the core, the core having a first end and a second end, the first end of the core residing inside the casing;
• an electrically conductive support being at least partially enclosed by the casing, the electrically conductive support having a housing in which the second end of the core resides;
• a moving frame coupled to the shutter, the moving frame configured to magnetically interact with the electromagnet to be moved from a first axial position to a second axial position, the first axial position corresponding to a closed position of the shutter to prevent gas flow between the gas inlet and outlet conduits, the second axial position corresponding to an open position of the shutter to permit gas flow between the gas inlet and outlet conduits;
• a bushing in which the electrically conductive support is at least partially housed, the bushing having a base;
• a fixing element that comprises a cylindrical central part and a flange extending radially from the cylindrical central part, the base of the bushing being held between the flange of the fixing element and the valve body, the fixing element being fixed to the valve body without the use of threads to secure the magnetic group inside the valve body housing, the fixing element having a free end portion that extends from the flange, the free end portion being made of malleable material that extends across and conforms to a bend on an outer surface of the valve body.
