Abstract: A multiway valve having a housing with an axially movable main valve body reciprocally mounted therein between first and second positions. The main valve body is received in a main valve chamber and a control valve chamber. A flexible and axially movable diaphragm is connected to and extends between the housing and the main valve body to block the communication between the main valve chamber and the control valve chamber. The housing has a working port and a main vent bore therein communicating with each other past a valve seating structure on the housing and the main housing valve body which controls communication therebetween in response to movements of the main valve body between the first and second positions. One side of the diaphragm is in communication with the main vent bore at all times. A passageway is provided in the housing and a valve is disposed in the passageway for controlling the supply of pressurized fluid to the control valve chamber.

Abstract: A valve arrangement having a housing with an inlet for pressurized fluid and an outlet. A chamber is provided in the housing having a flexible diaphragm therein dividing the chamber into a control chamber and a pressure chamber. The pressure chamber and the control chamber are each connected in fluid circuit with the pressurized fluid supplied to the inlet through a constant cross section throttle opening. An analogue pressure regulator is provided for maintaining the pressure of the pressurized fluid in the control chamber constant independent of pressure variations in the pressure of the pressurized fluid. The analogue pressure regulator includes a control opening providing fluid communication from the control chamber to the outlet and a pivotally supported armature movable into and out of blocking relation with the control opening.
