  • THROTTLE VALVE HAVING A PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
    Publication number: 20160076655
    Abstract: A pressure relief valve is associated with a throttle valve to shunt flow around a throttle valve element which is selectively positionable to throttle flow through the throttle valve. In a presently disclosed embodiment, a throttle valve comprises a valve body circumscribing a main flow passage extending along a central longitudinal axis between an inlet and an outlet. A valve plate is disposed within the main flow passage for turning about an axis of turning which perpendicularly intersects the central longitudinal axis for selectively throttling flow through the main flow passage. A pressure relief mechanism is mounted on the valve body.
