Thermal safety valve

A safety valve apparatus comprising:

• a. fluid input and output means, said input and output means being normally in fluid communication relation within said apparatus;
• b. trigger means activatably responsive to thermal variance for isolating said input means from said output means;
• c. fluid ejecting means for dumping of fluid through said fluid output means upon activation of said trigger means;
• and
• d. valve means for isolating said fluid output means subsequent to dumping of the fluid through said fluid output means, said valve means being activatable by said trigger means.

• b. trigger means activatably responsive to thermal variance for isolating said input means from said output means;
• c. fluid ejecting means for dumping of fluid through one of said fluid output and input means upon activation of said trigger means;
• and
• d. valve means for isolating the one of said fluid output and input means subsequent to dumping of the fluid through the one of said fluid output and input means, said valve means being activatable by said trigger means.

A thermally activatable safety valve apparatus comprising:

• a. a housing;
• b. a timing assembly within said housing;
• c. valve means operationally associated with said timing assembly;
• d. first and second fluid transmission means through said housing, one of said first and second fluid transmission means being isolatable by activation of said timing assembly;
• e. thermally activatable trigger means for initiating closure of the valve means operationally associated with said timing assembly;
• and
• f. second valve means responsive to said thermally activatable trigger means for isolating the other of said first and second fluid transmission means.
