Abstract: In a valve (10) having a pneumatic or hydraulic drive unit (20), the drive unit (20) includes a cylinder (22), a piston (24), a spindle unit (26) mounted for axial movement in the cylinder (22), and a housing cover (28), the piston (24) dividing the interior of the cylinder (22) into a cover-side space (42) and a valve seat-side space (40), and a duct (66) within the spindle unit (26) leading to the valve seat-side space (40). Formed in the housing cover (28) are a fluid intake (44) and a fluid exit (46) as well as a pressure fluid duct (48) in fluid communication with the fluid intake (44) and an outlet duct (50) in fluid communication with the fluid exit (46).

Abstract: A diaphragm valve has a valve body which includes at least one flow passage for fluid flow, a valve drive including a housing, and a diaphragm which can be deflected by the valve drive, in order to selectively open and close the flow passage. The rim of the diaphragm is axially clamped in a fluid-tight way between valve body and valve drive, wherein clamping of the diaphragm is effected by a screw-nut connection and the screw and the nut surround the rim of the diaphragm as seen in actuating direction of the valve drive and one of the two parts formed by screw and nut is non-rotatably provided at the valve body or at the valve drive. The other one of the two parts can be screwed in or on and additionally is rotatorily movable. The movable part is supported on the valve drive or on the valve body by an anti-friction bearing.

Abstract: A diaphragm valve for fluid control includes a valve housing having a valve chamber, into which at least three passageways open. The passageways have associated therewith valve seats provided in the valve housing. Further, the diaphragm valve for fluid control includes a diaphragm having various diaphragm sections that can be pressed against associated valve seats in order to selectively open and close flow connections between passageways. Further, the diaphragm valve for fluid control includes at least two control pistons, which are displaceably accommodated in respectively one cylinder chamber and are respectively coupled with the associated diaphragm section via a pressure transfer unit in order to move the diaphragm section, during the movement of the control piston, into an opening or closing position, wherein the cylinder chambers are located at the same axial height, so that the control pistons can be moved next to each other.
