  • the valve has a receiving body which is welded in the edge region between the layers of the film material.
  • the valve body of the dispensing valve is made of a plastic material substantially impermeable to organic material and has a tubular portion.
  • Receiving body and valve body have either a tubular extension or a corresponding receptacle for this, wherein, when the receiving body has an extension, the valve body has the corresponding receptacle, and, when the valve body has the extension, the receiving body is provided with the corresponding receptacle.
  • a clamping connection which is preferably designed as a snap or latching connection is, receiving body and valve body are connected together. It is initially irrelevant whether the tubular extension is formed on the valve body or on the receiving body.
  • the clamping connection between these bodies is made by the tubular extension is inserted and fixed in the receptacle.
  • the seal is designed as a sealing element, which is arranged between the receiving body and the valve body. The seal covers the receiving body at its side facing the valve body at least partially.
  • the extension has a tubular section which opens into a widened end section.
  • the end portion is preferably frusto-conical and tapers towards its free end of the extension.
  • the corresponding receptacle has a smaller diameter in its opening section than in a section spaced from the opening. In the connected state of the widened end portion of the extension engages behind the paragraph in the recording.
  • the sealing element has the shape of a flat ring and is made of an elastic material.
  • a material for the sealing element is preferably a BUNA ® used, which has elastic properties and prevents diffusion of organic media.
  • a synthetic BUNA N is used.
  • the receiving body has on its support surface a circumferential, pointed ring.
  • the sealing element is pressed onto the ring, so that its sealing effect is enhanced.
  • the receiving body has a pointed-oval cross-section, the tips of which point to the contact surface of the layers of the bag.
  • the pointed-oval receiving body extends with its longitudinal direction along the edge of the bag.
  • the receiving body terminates approximately flush with the bag edge, so that the receiving body is laterally sealed and has a pointed-oval, exposed upper side facing the valve body.
  • the sealing element covers this surface at least partially.
  • the extension is integrally formed on the valve body and the receiving body provided with the receptacle.
  • the extension is integrally formed on the receiving body and the receptacle for the extension is provided in the valve body.
  • the welding side of the film material is coated with PE, PP and / or PET.
  • the receptacle body which can be welded to the film material consists of PBT, PE or PT, PBT and PET, PE and PE as well as PT and PT preferably being used for a welded connection.
  • the valve housing is preferably made of POM, in particular polyacetals, which is not permeable to organic media.
  • Both heat welding and ultrasonic welding are suitable for connecting the receiving body and the film material.
  • the illustrated dispensing valve with bag comprises a valve cover 2 which is crimped in a known manner with the container 1, wherein an elastic seal 3 is preferably provided from substantially impermeable to propellant synthetic rubber Buna N between the container 1 with the valve cover 2.
  • the container 1 has at its upper, with the valve cover 2 crimped end an opening through which the bag 11 is inserted into the container 1.
