Definitions
- the field of this invention relates to an adjustable pressure controlled valve and more particularly to an adjustable pressure controlled valve suitable for self- inflatable devices.
- Pressure controlled pressure valves have wide applications. There are a few that are suitable for maintaining a set pressure for a pneumatic article for example, a pneumatic tire, pneumatic bed, and pressurized tanks. Many of these are diaphragm valves that only use the diaphragm as an actuator but another element, for example a poppet valve is used as the on/off valve.
- the pressure controlled valve is desired to be adjustable.
- One situation example is for self inflatable pneumatic tires. Tire companies make the same tire for a variety of makes and models of motor vehicles and the manufacturer of each make and model has its preferred set pressure. It is highly desired to have a pressure controlled valve that can be easily adjusted from the exterior of the valve housing to accommodate the different pneumatic pressures to eliminate the need to replace a valve regulator for each make and model. While adjustable regulators or pressure controlled valves are known, they are complicated devices that prevent usage in applications where an inexpensive and compact valve is required and they are not suitable for self- inflatable objects. What is needed is a pressure controlled valve that is economical to build and is easily adjustable from its exterior to accommodate different pneumatic pressures for use in a self-inflatable object. What is also needed is a valve that is also used as a pressure actuator to reduce the number of parts and provide for a more economical valve. What is also needed is a pressure controlled valve that is suitable for use with two different fluids.

- a valve 10 has a housing 12 with a first bore 14 and a second bore 16 at opposite ends 18 and 19 of housing 12.
- the first and second bores are co-aligned.
- a flexible diaphragm valve 20 is fitted in the first bore 14 and sealingly clamped in place by a cap member 30 secured to housing 12.
- the second bore 16 received a resilient helical spring 40 operably biased to move the diaphragm valve 20 away from valve seating surface 42 and is adjustably compressed by adjustment member 50 threadably engaged to the second bore 16 of the housing.
- the bores 14 and 16, spring 40, adjustment member 50, diaphragm valve 20 and caps 30 are all co-aligned in housing 12.
- a retaining clip 100 is mounted to the exterior of housing to retain the adjustment member 50 in the second bore 16 and to secure it against inadvertent rotation.
- the diaphragm valve 20 has a first pressure surface 23 and opposite facing second valve surface 25 and has its periphery 22 clamped in the first bore 14 between a shoulder 24 of housing and a shoulder 32 of cap member 30.
- the cap member 30 and diaphragm valve 20 form a pressure chamber 36 with housing 12 in first bore 14.
- the chamber 36 can be in fluid and pressure communication with a suitable pressurized pneumatic source (not shown) via a vent 34 through cap 30.
- the shown pneumatic source may be, for example, an interior of tire, interior of a pneumatic bed, pressure tank or other pressurized item.
- the housing 12 has an inlet 53 leading to passage 52 from an exterior side wall 54 of the housing into the second bore 16 at downstream end 51.
- the inlet 53 can be in communication with a pneumatic source for example, ambient atmosphere.
- the first and second bores 14 and 16 are separated from each other by a divider section 56 of housing 12 which provides the valve seating surface 42 thereon.
- the valve seating surface 42 surrounds an outlet passage 58 which has its downstream end 59 connectable to a pump (not shown) which then can lead to an item being pressurized, e.g. the interior of a pneumatic tire, a pneumatic bed, pressure tank or other inflatable or pressurizable item.
- the first bore 14 has an annular chamber section 44 surrounding the valve seating surface 42.
- the inlet passage 52 and outlet passage 58 when the diaphragm valve 20 is in the open position as shown in Figures 2 or 6, are in communication with each other through three passages 60 through divider 56 of which one passage 60 is clearly illustrated for simplicity of the drawings.
- the passages 60 are circumferentially spaced about divider 56 and provide for free pneumatic flow between the first and second bores 14 and 16.
- a valve lifter member 70 has an annular shaped end 72 sitting in annular section 44 about valve section surface 42 and abuts the diaphragm surface 25.
- the lifter member 70 has three prongs 74 that extend through the passages 60 in a sliding manner and are dimensioned to leave room for pneumatic flow through the passages 60.
- the prongs 74 have their respective distal ends 76 abut a lift rod member 80.
- the lift rod member 80 has a disc section 82 and a spring post 86. To prevent vacuum and pressure lock, the disc section 82 has apertures 84 therethrough.
- the helical spring 40 surrounds a spring post 86 of lift rod member 80 and sits against the back surface 88 of the disc section 82.
- the adjustment member 50 has an inner hole 45 that receives both the post 86 and spring 40.
- the inner hole 45 also seats the distal end of the spring 40.
- the adjustment member 50 near its inner end also has a groove 46 that seats a gasket 48 to allow the adjustment member 50 to slidably and sealingly engage the inner wall 17 of second bore 16 to prevent pneumatic leakage out rear threaded end 91 of housing 12.
- the adjustment member 50 has threads 92 that engage complementary housing threads 94 at rear end section 91 of inner wall 17 about the second bore 16.
- the adjustment member 50 has an enlarged head 96 that is constructed to be manually engaged for rotation to adjust the compression of the spring 40.
- the head 96 may be hex shaped as illustrated to be engaged by a wrench. It may in addition or alternately have an outer knurl to be manually grabbed or have a slot or Phillips screwdriver slot to be engaged by a screwdriver or Phillips head screw driver to facilitate manual rotation of the adjustment member.
- the clip 100 has a mounting peg 102 securely mounted in hole 104 of housing 12 through a tight press fit with circumferential protuberance 103 of peg 102 engaging hole 104.
- the clip has a flexible arm 106 seated in a recess 105 in housing 12 with a distal tapered tip 108 that extends through opening 107 and that is biased radially inward to engage one of the grooves 97 to act as a detent.
- the arm 106 can flex to allow the tip to move radially outward to disengage out of groove 97.
- Calibrated pressure indicia 110 may be laser etched onto the outer side wall
- the indicia may be etched along a helical curve such that the set pressure is always at a fixed rotated angle with respect to the housing.
- the calibrated indicia 110 that is set is positioned axially directly at the end 19 of the housing 12 and can be calibrated to be radially positioned in proximity to an indicator arrow 114.
- the adjustment member 50 is manually rotated such that the threads 92, 94 axially move the adjustment member to the desired axial position to compress the spring 40 which corresponds to a set pressure for example 30 PSl as shown in Figure 1.
- the ribs 99 engage and push out the distal tip 108 of clip 100 from a groove 97 and the tip 108 then clicks back into a sequential groove 97.
- Each click is calibrated to correspond to a change of one PSl, in other words, a full rotation of the adjustment member is calibrated to be five PSl increase or decrease depending on the direction.
- the PSl indicia may range from 30 to 50 PSL A typical range may provide for about four full rotations or a range of 20 PSL Figures 1, 2 and 5 illustrate the adjustment member set at approximately the typical minimum adjusted set pressure, e.g. 30 PSl and Figure 6 illustrates the adjustment member set at the typical maximum adjusted set pressure, e.g. 50 PSL
- the operator may feel the clicks through the wrench and even place his finger on the spring arm 106 and feel the arm move radially in and out to keep track of the clicks and thereby the PSl adjustment.
- the tip 108 stays in the groove to act as a detent and serves to prevent inadvertent rotation of the adjustment member.
- the clip 100 also functions as a stop by having tip 108 abutting internal shoulders 116 and 118 at the opposite ends of the splined section 98 to prevent excessive rotation or axial motion of the adjustment member too far outward to disengage from threads 94 and too far inward which may otherwise permanently deform spring 40 beyond it resilient range.
- the resilient spring biases the lift rod member 80 and pushes the valve lifter 70 to unseat the diaphragm valve 20 from valve seat surface 42 until the diaphragm abuts stops 31 on cap 30 creating open pathway passage 33 between inlet 53 and outlet 59.
- the valve is opened as illustrated in Figure 2 or Figure 6. This allows the pump (not shown) to pump air from atmosphere that flows from inlet 59 through the valve through open pathway 33 and to outlet passage 58 and then to the pump and into the interior air of the pneumatic inflatable bed, tire, pressure tank or other inflatable or pressurizable object.
- the pressure in chamber 36 acts on diaphragm valve 20 and overcomes the bias of the resilient spring 40 and pushes against the lift rod member 80 and pushes the valve lifter 70 to compress the helical spring 40 until the diaphragm valve 20 becomes seated onto valve seat surface 42 which closes the valve by interrupting or closing pathway 33.
- the pump (not shown) may continue to operate but, intake passage 58 is closed, so the pump will only draw vacuum.
- Figure 6 illustrates the adjustment member 50 screwed down to higher set pressure position e.g. 50 PSI which further compresses spring 40 which therefore exerts great opening pressure through valve lifter 70 onto diaphragm valve 20. At this position, it takes greater pressure e.g. 50 PSI within chamber 36 to overcome the opening bias of spring 40 to close diaphragm 20 onto valve surface 42 as compared to the 30 PSI position shown in phantom.
- pneumatic flow within housing 12 from inlet 53 through valve seat 42 and out to outlet 59 does not mix with and is completely separated from pressure chamber 36.
- the valve is suitable to be used where the pneumatic supply source may be different than the pneumatically pressurized control source, i.e. the gas in chamber 36.
- One pneumatic source is used as the pressure controlling source e.g. the pneumatic fluid in chamber 36, and one pneumatic supply system has controlled flow from inlet 52 to outlet 59.
- outlet 59 of the valve leads through a pump to an inflatable device for example a pneumatic tire, pneumatic bed or pressure tank, which is in fluid communication with chamber 36
- the pressure controlled valve provides feedback through chamber 36 to control the pressure in the inflatable device.
- the slidable piston valve 120 has a frusto-conical shaped valve surface 123 that has an elastomeric overmold section 125 thereon.
- a divider section 156 has a single central passage 160 with an annular valve seat 142 thereabout. Outlet passage 58 extends from the first bore 14.
- the slidable piston valve has a central leg 174 that extends through the central passage 160.
- the leg 174 has a diameter sized smaller that the diameter of central passage 160 to allow pneumatic flow through passage 160 from the second bore 16 to the first bore 14.
- the leg 174 extends into the helical spring 40.
- the helical spring 40 directly biases the piston valve 120 to an open position.
- valve lifter 70 instead of being integral with valve lifter 70, may be integral with valve lifter rod 80.
- the prongs 74 as part of valve lift rod member 80 may directly abut the diaphragm and be used to lift the diaphragm off the valve seat to the open position.
- the three prongs may also be replaced by a centrally located prong that has a flow passage therethrough rather than about it.
- the piston valve surface 123 may have other shapes for example, an annular disc shape.
- the helical spring may be replaced by other kinds of springs or resilient members for example, an elastomeric plug.
- the resilient member rather than being a compression member in the second bore may be a resilient tension member mounted in the pressure chamber that still biases the valve member to the open position.
