- the lever 202 acts on the via an eccentric 204 Carriage 198 that when the lever 202 is pivoted in the direction of arrow 205 the carriage 198 with the brake roller 196 in the direction of arrow 206 upwards is raised.
- a roller 207 is provided over which the Seizug 18 is guided.
- a guide role 208 for the Cable 18 arranged on the housing 200 such that the valve body 8 is always exact is guided over the valve seat.
- the housing 200 contains a link guide 210 for movable Support body 212, 213, which are connected to said carriage 198. Between the brake roller 196 over which the cable 18 is guided, and the Support bodies 212, 213 are spring elements 214, 215 and also brake bodies 216 intended.
- the brake roller 196 After triggering and during the flushing process, the brake roller 196 takes the 25 a lower position in the link guide 210, the Spring elements 214, 215 are tensioned and ultimately the required braking force on the brake roller 196 is effective. Due to the common bearing of the brake roller 196 and the two support bodies on the said carriage and its Parallel guidance when lifting is combined with the link guidance immediate braking after triggering the rinsing process ensured.
