Definitions

  • the present invention relates to pressurized breathable gas pressure regulators, of the type comprising an end connectable to a high pressure gas supply valve body, this end defining a pressurized gas supply channel, especially a gas mixture duct. respiratory for diver or firefighter / rescuer.
  • regulators are connected and disconnected to the faucet / gas tank assembly before and after each use. In the field of scuba diving, after each use the regulators are rinsed in fresh water and stored in the open air.
  • connection end a hinged closing element, for example example of the lid type, manually operable.
  • This manual actuation in addition to complicating and weakening the connection end, and preventing the establishment of a protective cover, also makes the connection procedure complex and does not guarantee the penetration of foreign bodies just before or after connection / disconnection with the faucet / bottle assembly.
  • the present invention aims to provide a simple, robust and reliable arrangement for closing or opening automatically the gas supply channel when connected to the valve body and suitable for both type of connection called “stirrup” or type called “DIN”.
  • the feed channel terminates in a stationary valve member cooperating with a mobile seat biased by an elastic means in a closed position of the supply channel, and comprising a external face capable of cooperating in engagement with a corresponding surface of the valve body to push the movable seat against the resilient means to an open position upon connection with the valve body.
  • a regulator block 1 incorporating a membrane integrated expansion device 2 intended to be connected to a valve body 3 via, in the so-called "stirrup" connection mode, a stirrup 4 secured to the block 1 receiving the valve body 3 and carrying a pressure screw 5 for pressing the valve body 3 in the connection position against the expander block 1.
  • the latter comprises at least one medium / low pressure gas outlet 60 of the gas conveyed by the valve body 3 to the expander device 2 via a pressurized gas supply channel 6 opening towards the outside of the connection end of the expander block 1.
  • the inlet duct 6 is formed, at its inlet, by a blind coaxial bore of a tubular valve member 7 mounted stationary in the connection end of the expansion unit 1, the blind bore 6 opening outwards through radial passages 8 formed below an enlarged end head 9 of the element 7.
  • annular seat 10 having an annular projecting or flanging outer end 11 forming an annular end face 12 around the head 9, obviously inside the annular flange 11 connecting internally with the sliding bore of the seat 10 on the tubular element 9 by a seat edge 90 normally biased in engagement with the rear frustoconical face 13 of the head 9 by a spring 23 supporting in the regulator block 1 and pushing the seat 10 outwardly.
  • the valve body 3 comprises, around the channel 14 for supplying pressurized gas from a container or bottle of pressurized gas a bowl of the same transverse dimension as the collar 11 and defining a annular inner shoulder 15 cooperating in engagement, during the pressing of the valve body 3 by the screw 5 against the expander block 1, with the annular end face 12 of the movable seat 10, thus pushing it inwardly to the against the spring 14 and opening the passage between the seat edge 90 and the face 13 of the head 9.
  • the recoil of the seat 10 in the expansion unit 1 is limited by the abutment of a rear shoulder 91 of the seat against a corresponding shoulder of the body 1.
  • the sealing configuration in connection between the shoulder 15 of the body 3 and the annular end face 12 of the seat 10 is provided by a seal 16 mounted in the bottom of the bowl of the valve body 3 and the seal between the movable seat 10 and the stationary valve member 9 is provided by a sliding joint 17 mounted in the seat 10.
  • the positioning of the seals 16 and 17 between the two parts can be reversed.
  • valve body 3 supporting the opening / closing valve 20, is integral, in this embodiment of a threaded base 21 to be mounted in the neck of a pressurized gas cylinder (not shown).
  • the seal between the abutment faces 12 and 15 is provided by an O-ring 16 mounted in the movable seat 10 and the sliding seal of the latter is provided by a sliding joint 17 cooperating here with the peripheral wall of a shank 22 for mounting the stationary valve member 9 in the expander block 1.
  • the assemblies of the seals 16 and 17 can also be reversed.
  • the inlet passage of the supply channel 6 is hermetically sealed, the simple connection of the regulator block 1 with the valve body 3 opening this passageway to create and maintain a stable determined inlet section sufficient to meet the respiratory performance of a relaxed respiratory gas user, regardless of the high feed pressure of the latter.
  • the arrangement according to the invention allows a rotation of the pressure reducer block by the user even in the configuration connected under pressure, the users having the unfortunate habit of forcing on the connection of the regulator block to bring back the medium pressure outlets thereof in a determined position.
  • the mobile seat according to the invention gives a degree of freedom to the connection in the axis of the valve body which avoids the possibility of initiating a loosening torque of the expander block.
  • the outer end of the seat mobile 10 may be covered with a tear-off or removable protective cover.
