Pneumatic valve, particularly a duplex-type distributor for a braking system, including a device for limiting the maximum distributable pressure

A pneumatic valve, particularly for braking systems, comprising a body with an inlet connector and an outlet connector intended to be connected to a pressure source and a pneumatic circuit respectively, and having a valve comprising a seat and an obturator for controlling communication between the said connectors, a control device including a piston sealingly slidably mounted in a guide portion of the body and able to cause a controlled displacement of the obturator away from the seat in its working travel, so as to cause controlled opening of the valve, and means for limiting the maximum pressure deliverable to the outlet connector;

• wherein the seat is formed in a member mounted in the body for translation in the direction of displacement of the obturator, and the limiting means comprise control means operatively associated with the piston and arranged to cause a displacement of the seat relative to the body together with and in contact with the obturator when the piston passes beyond a predetermined position relative to the body in its working travel.
