Abstract

202,380. Thivolle, J. L. May 15, 1922. Steam traps.-Relates to steam traps of the kind comprising a receptacle 3 divided into two compartments 11, 11<1> by a flexible diaphragm 9 which is moved upwardly by excess of pressure arising in the lower compartment 11 so as to open the valve 5 controlling the discharge outlet 4. According to the invention, the pressures in the chambers 11, 11<1> are initially equalized through a communicating passage 7 in the valve spindle 6 having a lateral opening 8, the communication being broken when the condense water reaches a level A-B in the trap and seals the opening 8, after which excess of pressure is created in the lower chamber 11 owing to condensation in the chamber 11<1>, but the diaphragm 9 is not operated until the water in the passage 7 reaches a predetermined level C-D, representing a corresponding difference of pressure in the chambers 11, 11<1>. Modified constructions are described in which the cover 10 of the chamber 11<1> is located inside the receptacle 3, in which the valve spindle is solid and the passage 7 is formed in the wall of the receptacle 3, and in which the communicating passage lies outside the receptacle 3.
