fluids used in householdlaundry machines.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a three-way valve having a single diaphragm valve member which alternately opens one port and then another of the three-way valve. Still another object of the present invention is to provide a novel solenoid actuated valve.
A still further object of the present invention is 'to provide a novel valve housing and valve actuation mechanism.
The novel features which I believe to be characteristic of my invention are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. My invention itself, however, both as to its manner of construction and method of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, may best be understood by reference to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a plan view of a three-way valve embodying the novel teachings of the present invention;
Figure 2 is a plan view of the valve housing with the valve actuating mechanism and the cover plate removed;
Figure 3 is an elevational view partly in section, as indicated along the line IIIIII of Figure 1, of the three-way valve shown in Figure 1; and
Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 3, but showing the valve actuating mechanism in its position when the actuating solenoid is energized.
The particular embodiment of the invention illustrated in the drawings comprises a housing II having two hollow center posts or sleeves I2 and I3 extending through the bottom wall thereof. These hollow center posts or sleeves I2 and I3 terminate within the housing II in a region or plane lying in proximity to and spaced away from a cover plate or web member I4 which is bolted or otherwise secured as at I5 to a flange I6 formed on the main housing portion I I. This cover member I4 is arrangedto clamp a flexible diaphragm Il into position against the flange I6 to form the top wall of the housing II. The
and has two reinforced disc-like portions I8 and I9 which lie opposite the inner ends of the sleeves or center posts I2 and I3. The reinforced disc-like portions I8 and I9 have ears 2!! and 2I formed on the reinforced portions of the diaphragm I1 and are arranged to be pinned as at 22 and 23 to a rocker arm 24 which is pivotally mounted as at 25 on a central portion of the cover plate or web member I4.
The cover member I4 is provided with two relatively large openings '26 and 21 opposite the reinforced disc-like portions I8 and I9, thereby providing free access to the reinforced disc-like portions I8 and I9 through the cover plate I4 for the necessary hinge connection to the rocker arm 24.
The hollow center posts or sleeves I2 and I3 at their inner ends provide valve seats, and the reinforced disc-like portions I8 and [9 provide valve members for opening and closing the ends of the sleeves I2 and I3. Thus the sleeves I2 and I3 provide two of the ports of the threeway valve construction.
In order to reinforce the region of the cover member I4 where the rocker arm is pivotally mounted thereon, a substantially solid center post 28 extends up from the base of the housing II to a position where the central portion of the diaphragm I1 is seated tightly thereagainst and thus in turn forces the central portion of the cover plate or web member I4. It will be observed that the center post 28 is a relatively small post and that fluid flows freely therearound within the housing II.
Mounted on one side of the housing II is a solenoid 29 into which a laminated armature 30 extends. The armature 30 is pivotally mounted as at 3| by a loose pin and hole connection on the rocker arm 24. A coil spring 32' extends between the rocker arm 24 and the yoke 33 of the solenoid 29 and thus biases the rocker arm 24 in a clockwise direction about its pivot point 25, as viewed in Figures 3 and 4 of the drawings. Stated in a somewhat different manner, the compression spring 32 normally forces the disclike central portion I8 of the diaphragm I? tightly against the sleeve I2, while the disc-like portion I9 has been moved away from the sleeve I 3. Upon energization of the solenoid I! the armature 30 is drawn into the solenoid 29 and the rocker arm 24 is thus moved to force the disc-like center portion I9 against the sleeve I3 while withdrawing the disc-like center portion I8 away from the sleeve I2.
It will be noted, from an inspection of Figures 3 and 4 of the drawings, that the connection between the Gutter pin 23 and the rocker arm 24 is a relatively loose connection. More particularly, the rocker arm 24 is provided with a finger portion 34 having a relatively large hole 35 near its end through which the cotter pin 23 extends. This hole 35, as is shown in the drawing, is substantially larger than the cross-sectional area of the cotter pin. and thus takes into consideration the relative transitional movement of the center of the opening 35 with respect to the axis of the sleeve l3. A small helical compression spring 36 is fitted around the finger 34 to assurea tight seal between the reinforced central portion IQ of the diaphragm I! which forms the valve member 1 for the sleeve or port 13.
Two of the ports of the three-way valve are provided by the sleeves l2 and 13. The third port or duct is provided by the outwardly extending tubular portion 31 which opens into the interior of the casing H and which, as shown, extend at right angles to the axes of'the'sleeves 'lZ and [3.
The post 28,:which extends up 1' into ithez'center of the'oasing I l, is provided with-a threadedre- I cess 38 which enables the casing to' be convenientlysecured to any structure upon which the valveis'to -be'mounted. The center post-28 i also I provided'w-ith a-lip-39 which extends transversely of the major axis of the'casing' 1 Lee .is clearly shown in Figure 2 of the drawings.
From the above description it will be apparent that fluid may be passed through the tubular casing portion 3!- and then selectively out through either the port 12 orthe-port i3, dependingupon whether the solenoid 29 is energized ordeenergized. The particular manner in which the sole- "noid 29 is energized forms no part of the present invention, it 'being'sufiicient for purposesherein to point out that this solenoid may be electrically energized through the terminals Hand 4! from any electrical control circuit. As previously "pointed out, this valve is arranged for the flow of fluid in either direction. 'The tubular portion -31'may form the outlet'port of the valve and fluid may be selectively received eitherthrough "port 12 or port l3, depending upon whether the r solenoid-29 is energized or deenergized.
One of- -theparticularly advantageous features of the present valve lies in the fact thatwhen the tubular portion 3l=is to be used a the outlet port and is connected to a suctionpump, an air-tight seal is provided between the valve memberand its associated port, which is not being used. Thus when the port I3 is closed b the valve'-member portion IQ of the diaphragm ll; fiuid may be sucked through thetubular portion orport l2 and withdrawn through the-tubular portion Why a. suction pump connected to the tubular portion 31.
While I: have-shown a particular embodiment of my invention it will, of course, be .understood that I do not wish to be limitedl'thereto,;since many modifications-may be made, .and 1,. therefore, contemplate by the appended claims, to cover all such modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope of myinvention.
