Abstract: A hot and cold water mixing valve has the supply lines and the out flow discharge substantially radially and open to a median portion of the housing bore in such a way that the flow component of the water which flows between the supply lines and the out flow is greater in a transverse direction with respect to the housing bore than in an axial direction thereto with a part of the control plunger which is located in the median portion comprising a peripheral recess and being equipped with sealing ribs on both sides with adjustable limit means limiting the movement of the plunger, whereby axial displacement of the control plunger controls the mixing ratio or controls the delivery quantity.

Abstract: There is disclosed a mixing valve for control of water temperature and pressure from two distinct hot and cold water sources. A pressure equalizing cartridge utilizes radial discharge openings and by axial movement of this cartridge, control of temperature is achieved. By rotary movement of the cartridge, discharge ports in a liner pipe which surrounds the equalizing cartridge are blocked to control the quantity of water discharged.
