Abstract
A valve arrangement with at least two connecting regions and with an actuating device is proposed, the valve body having a lead-through region for guiding a spindle and a receiving housing which encloses at least the lead-through region of the valve body being provided for receiving the means for sensing the valve position. The receiving housing, which can be easily adapted to the respective field of use, can be integrated in a simple manner in existing valve arrangements and the compact and flexible arrangement of the means for sensing the valve position in the receiving housing ensures to an increased extent that the valve position will be correctly indicated.
Claims21
A valve arrangement comprising a valve body with at least two connecting regions for connection to matching pipelines and a shut-off element for shutting off and opening the matching pipelines, the valve body for guiding a spindle, the spindle is connected effectively at a first end to the shut-off member and at the second end to an actuating device, and at least one means for sensing the respective valve position, wherein a receiving housing having a connecting flange provided with a recess for receiving the means for sensing the respective valve position wherein the housing encloses at least the lead-through region.
A valve arrangement comprising a valve body with at least two connecting regions for connection to matching pipelines and a shut-off element for shutting off and opening the matching pipelines, the valve body further includes a lead-through region for guiding a spindle, the spindle is arranged such that it can be connected effectively at a first end to the shut-off member and at the second end to an actuating device, and at least one means for sensing the respective valve position, wherein a receiving housing for receiving the means for sensing the respective valve position encloses at least the lead-through region wherein a recess for receiving a control plate is provided in a connecting flange provided on the housing, the recess being in the form of an arc of a circle and coinciding with the outside diameter of the control plate.
A valve arrangement comprising a valve body with at least two connecting regions for connection to matching pipelines and a shut-off element for shutting off and opening the matching pipelines, the valve body further includes a lead-through region for guiding a spindle, the spindle is arranged such that it can be connected effectively at a first end to the shut-off member and at the second end to an actuating device, and at least one means for sensing the respective valve position, wherein a receiving housing for receiving the means for sensing the respective valve position encloses at least the lead-through region wherein a control plate with control cams for activating the means for sensing the respective valve position is arranged in the receiving housing wherein concavely shaped switching lugs are arranged between the control cams of the control plate and a plurality of microswitches in such a way that rotational movement of the control cams is converted into a rectilinear switching path of the plurality of microswitches.
