Abstract
Valve (10) comprising a housing (20) with an air inlet (23) mounted at the end of a discharge air duct of a domestic appliance, and with an air outlet (24) communicating with the outside. The valve (10) includes a shoulder (41) sealed to the air inlet (23). A ball (42) is received in the housing (20) and is movable on a guide (43) between first and second positions. When there is no airflow from the duct (60), the ball sealingly engages the shoulder (41) under gravity so as to prevent air from being introduced into the duct from outside through gusts of wind. The shoulder (41) and the ball (42) can be made from an insulating material in order to reduce conductive heat loss in cold weather. When the domestic appliance is operating, the ball (42) moves towards the second position under the discharge airflow in order to evacuate said airflow. As soon as the appliance is stopped, the ball (42) resumes automatically its initial position. The valve (10) may be advantageously mounted on any forced air outlet that can be found on various devices, such as air outlets for driers, for toilet ventilating devices, for air exchangers or kitchen hoods, to replace conventional pivoting valves.
Claims
1. Valve pour conduit d'air vicié domestique (60), la valve (10) comprenant: un boîtier (20) muni d'une entrée d'air (23), d'une sortie d'air (24) et d'un moyen (25) pour relier l'entrée d'air (23) à une extrémité du conduitDomestic air vent valve (60), the valve (10) comprising: a housing (20) having an air inlet (23), an air outlet (24) and a means (25) for connecting the air inlet (23) to one end of the duct
(60); un épaulement (41) situé à l'intérieur du boîtier et devant l'entrée d'air (23); une balle (42) mobile entre une première position où la balle (42) s'appuie de façon substantiellement hermétique et par gravité contre 1 'épaulement (41), et une deuxième position où la balle (42) est éloignée de l'épaulement (41) et au-dessus du niveau de la première position; un guide (43) placé dans le boîtier (20) pour guider la balle (42) entre la première et la deuxième position; et un siège (51) sur lequel vient s'appuyer la balle (42) à la deuxième position; la valve (10) étant caractérisée en ce que la balle (42) et l'épaulement (41) sont faits en un matériau isolant, la balle (42) étant déplacée vers la deuxième position sous l'effet d'un écoulement d'air vicié et est maintenue stable à la deuxième position sous l'effet d'un différentiel de pression créé par un passage (30) reliant le haut du siège (51) aux abords de la sortie d'air (24).(60); a shoulder (41) located inside the housing and in front of the air inlet (23); a bale (42) movable between a first position where the bale (42) rests substantially hermetically and by gravity against one shoulder (41), and a second position where the bale (42) is moved away from the shoulder (41) and above the level of the first position; a guide (43) in the housing (20) for guiding the bale (42) between the first and second positions; and a seat (51) on which bears the ball (42) in the second position; the valve (10) being characterized in that the bale (42) and the shoulder (41) are made of an insulating material, the bale (42) being moved to the second position under the effect of a flow of stale air and is kept stable at the second position under the effect of a pressure differential created by a passage (30) connecting the top of the seat (51) to the vicinity of the air outlet (24).
2. Valve selon la revendication 1, caractérisée en ce que le passage (30) est constitué par une double paroi dans le boîtier (20), la double paroi comprenant une paroi externe (27) et une paroi interne (28). 2. Valve according to claim 1, characterized in that the passage (30) is constituted by a double wall in the housing (20), the double wall comprising an outer wall (27) and an inner wall (28).
3. Valve selon la revendication 1 ou 2, caractérisée en ce que la sortie d'air (24) est orientée vers le bas et est munie d'une grille protectrice (26). Valve according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the air outlet (24) faces downwards and is provided with a protective grid (26).

La revendication 1 a été modifiée afin de tenir compte des documents localisés au cours de la recherche internationale. La partie décrivant les réalisations antérieures et la partie caractérisante ont été reformulées en conséquence.Claim 1 has been modified to take into account documents located during the course of the international search. The part describing the previous achievements and the characterizing part have been reformulated accordingly.
En bref, les revendications portent maintenant sur une valve pour conduit d'air vicié domestique . par opposition à une valve servant notamment à un fluide liquide et destinée notamment à l'industrie.In short, the claims now relate to a valve for domestic stale air duct. as opposed to a valve serving in particular for a liquid fluid and intended in particular for industry.
La partie caractérisante de la revendication 1 fait maintenant état du fait que la balle (42) et l'épaulement (41) sont faits en matériau isolant, ce que ne montre pas le document US-A-4,624,176. Il a aussi été spécifié que la balleThe characterizing part of claim 1 now states that the bale (42) and the shoulder (41) are made of insulating material, which is not shown in US-A-4,624,176. It has also been specified that the ball
(42) est déplacée vers la deuxième position sous l'effet d'un écoulement d'air vicié et est maintenue stable à la deuxième position sous l'effet d'un différentiel de pression créé par un passage (30) reliant le haut du siège (51) aux abords de la sortie d'air (24..(42) is moved to the second position under the effect of a stale airflow and is kept stable at the second position under the effect of a pressure differential created by a passage (30) connecting the top of the seat (51) in the vicinity of the air outlet (24 ..
La nouvelle revendication 2 est substantiellement identique à l'ancienne revendication 3.The new claim 2 is substantially identical to the old claim 3.
La nouvelle revendication 3 reprend ce qui avait été indiqué dans l'ancienne revendication 4 et spécifie en plus que la sortie d'air (24) est orientée vers le bas. The new claim 3 incorporates what was stated in the former claim 4 and further specifies that the air outlet (24) is downwardly oriented.
