  • Patent number: 9709176
    Abstract: A device in a valve includes a valve housing with at least a first and a second fluid port. A closure element including a sealing portion and a diaphragm is arranged in the valve housing. The sealing portion is movable between an open position and a closed position. The closure element and valve housing form a flow passage which communicates with the fluid ports when the sealing portion leaves the closed position. A second sealing portion is arranged in contact with a support portion of the valve housing. An abutment element is arranged in contact with the second sealing portion. The abutment element transmits a force via the second sealing portion toward the support portion to provide a seal. The force is at least partly exerted by a spring element.

  • Publication number: 20170122442
    Abstract: A device in a valve (1) comprises a valve housing (2) with at least a first (3) and a second (4) fluid port. A closure element (5) is arranged in the valve housing (2), said closure element (5) having a sealing portion (15) and comprising a diaphragm (30). The sealing portion (15) is movable along an axis of the closure element (5) by said diaphragm (30) between an open position and a closed position of at least one of the fluid ports of the valve housing. The closure element (5) together with the valve housing (2) forms a flow passage (11) in the valve housing (2) which communicates with said fluid ports when the sealing portion (15) leaves said closed position. A second sealing portion (14) of the closure element, which is an enclosing portion spaced from said axis, is arranged in contact with a support portion (25) of the valve housing (2).
