Abstract

L'invention concerne un limiteur de pression bidirectionnel comprenant une cage (12) comprenant un alésage (32), un tiroir (14) se trouvant dans l'alésage (32), et un moyen de sollicitation sollicitant le tiroir vers une position fermée. La cage comprend par ailleurs un premier orifice d'entrée/de sortie (50) et un second orifice d'entrée/de sortie (52). Chaque orifice est raccordé à l'alésage. L'alésage comprend une section centrale (38) ayant un premier diamètre et une section à diamètre réduit (42) ayant un second diamètre, qui est inférieur au premier diamètre. Le tiroir est mobile par rapport à la cage à l'intérieur de l'alésage. Le tiroir comprend une section de plus petit diamètre (60) reçue dans la section à diamètre réduit (42) de l'alésage et une section de plus grand diamètre (62) reçue à l'intérieur de la section centrale (38) de l'alésage. Le tiroir comprend un passage (70) ouvert au niveau du premier orifice (50) et une ouverture radiale (90) s'étendant au travers du tiroir en provenance du passage. Le moyen de sollicitation sollicite le tiroir vers la position fermée, l'écoulement du fluide étant alors bloqué au travers de l'ouverture radiale entre le passage et le second orifice. Quand la force de sollicitation du moyen de sollicitation est surmontée, le tiroir se déplace vers une position ouverte, la section de plus petit diamètre du tiroir se déplaçant alors vers la section centrale de l'alésage de sorte que l'écoulement du fluide n'est plus bloqué au travers de l'ouverture radiale entre le passage et le second orifice.
