Abstract
The valve housing can be used for valves and steam traps with a compact automatic control unit. It has a connecting part with two flow ducts and a base on which the open end of a cap rests tightly. Two post-like projections with fastening orifices are provided on the longitudinal axis of the flow ducts on the connecting part next to the base and the cap. The cap has two laterally projecting screw bearings. They are arranged at a distance from the open end of the cap in front of the ends of the projections on the longitudinal axis of the flow ducts and are provided with screw holes. The cap is connected to the connecting part by two fastening screws which penetrate through the screw holes and are screwed into the fastening orifices of the projections.
Claims20
Valve housing comprising,
- a connecting part (2) having two connecting ends and two mutually aligned flow ducts (3,4) which each extend into one of the two connecting ends into the valve housing along a longitudinal axis (11), one of said connecting ends inputs a supply of fluid medium and the other of said connecting ends discharges said fluid medium, respectively;
- said connecting part having a base (10) arranged to a side of the flow ducts;
- a cap (1) having an open end (12) resting on the base of the connecting part and said cap together with the base forming a valve housing interior (24) which communicates with the flow ducts and accommodates a control unit for controlling the flow of fluid medium through the valve housing;
- the connecting part (2) has, on either side next to the base (10) along the longitudinal axis (11) of the flow ducts (3,4), screw fastening means (17,18,20);
- the cap (1) has two diametrically opposed laterally projecting screw bearings (13,14) which are arranged along the longitudinal axis (11) of the flow ducts (3, 4);
- the cap (1) is connected to the connecting part (2) by two fastening screws (21), which connect said screw bearings (13,14) to said screw fastening means (17,18,20);
- connecting flanges (5,6) having screw holes (16) at both connecting ends;
- and
- screw bearings (13,14) arranged at such a distance from said open end (12) of the cap (1), that said screw bearings are located radially outside the screw holes (16) of the connecting flanges (5,6).
Valve housing comprising
- a connecting part (2, 35) having two connecting ends and two flow through ducts (3, 4) aligned with each other, said ducts each extending from one of the two connecting ends along a longitudinal axis (11) into the valve housing, and one of said ducts inputs a supply of fluid medium and the other of said ducts discharging the fluid medium;
- the connecting part (2, 35) having a base (10) arranged laterally of the flow through ducts (3, 4);
- a cap (1, 42) having an open end (12) resting on the base (10) of the connecting part (2, 35), said cap (1, 42) and the base (10) jointly form a valve housing interior (24) serving for receiving a control unit (25) for controlling the flow of fluid medium through the valve housing;
- said base (10) having connection channels (30, 32, 33, 36, 37) connecting the housing interior (24) with the flow through ducts (3, 4);
- said connecting part (2, 35) having two projections (17, 18) in the form of poles and extending in the longitudinal direction of the cap (1, 42) on both sides next to the base (10) on the longitudinal axis (11) of the flow through ducts (3, 4);
- said cap (1, 42) having two diametrically opposed, laterally projecting screw bearings (13, 14), said screw bearings being arranged on the longitudinal axis (11) of the flow through ducts (3, 4) and with a spacing from the open end (12) of the cap (1, 42);
- and
- said cap (1, 42) being connected with two fastening screws (21) to the connecting part 2, 35) which connect the screw bearings (13, 14) with the projections (17, 18).
