Abstract
A valve, in particular a pneumatic suspension valve for a vehicle, is provided. The valve includes a valve body with a driver. The driver has a receiving section for receiving an actuating lever which can be fixed on the driver. Said receiving section is design to receive, without retrofitting the receiving section, an actuating lever having a first cross-sectional profile to receive an actuating lever having a second cross-sectional profile which is different from the first cross-sectional profile.
Claims18
A valve, comprising:
- a valve body;
- a driver of the valve body, the driver comprising a receiving section, wherein
- the receiving section is configured to receive an actuation lever with a first cross-sectional profile or an actuation lever with a second cross-sectional profile, the first and second cross-sectional profiles differing from one another, without any retrofitting of the receiving section of the driver.
A valve device, comprising:
- a valve having a valve body with a driver, the driver having a receiving section;
- and
- an actuation lever having a first cross-sectional profile or a second cross-sectional profile, the first and second cross-sectional profiles differing from one another, wherein
- the receiving section of the driver is configured to receive the actuation lever with the first cross-sectional profile or the actuation lever with the second cross-sectional profile without any retrofitting of the receiving section.
A method for assembling a valve device, the method comprising the acts of:
- providing a valve body having a driver;
- providing an actuation lever attachable to the driver, the actuation lever having either a first cross-sectional profile or a second cross-sectional profile, which first and second cross-sectional profiles differ from one another;
- and
- arranging the actuation lever in a receiving section of the driver, the receiving section being configured to alternatively receive the actuation lever with the first cross-sectional profile and the actuation lever with the second cross-sectional profile, without any need to retrofit the receiving section.
