Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a discharging valve for a cylinder containing pressurized gas for inflating balloons.
  • Cylinders containing pressurized gas are known, such as disposable cylinders containing helium gas for inflating balloons.
  • a cylinder consists of an enclosed tank comprising a tank containing a pressurized gas. Said cylinder tank is closed from above by an upper valve which comprises a pressurized sealed shutter. Said shutter slides in a hollow body of the upper valve, thus causing said valve to pass from a closed position to an open position. The upper portion of the shutter extends outward from the upper valve and is protected by an upper wall of the hollow body of the upper valve. By mechanically pressing the shutter toward the inside of the cylinder tank, the upper valve passes to an open position, thus allowing the pressurized gas to be released externally.
  • the shutter Due to the pressure of the gas contained in the tank, which usually is from 85 to 110 bar, the shutter cannot be pressed by a button toward the inside of the tank, but requires a rotating discharging valve which may be screwed to the upper valve or unscrewed and removed from the upper valve.
  • Said upper wall of the hollow body of the upper valve is externally threaded to allow the separable rotating discharging valve to be mounted by means of screwing.
  • a rotating discharging valve of the prior art consists of a hollow body comprising a discharging spout and a lower internal cavity comprising a thread adapted to be screwed onto the corresponding thread of the upper wall of the hollow body of the upper valve.
  • the rotation of the discharging valve dispenses a larger amount of gas than the volume of gas required to inflate a balloon.
  • there is a need to perform several operations quickly in sequence to inflate a balloon i.e. to mount a mouth of the balloon on the spout of the discharging valve, then to screw the discharging valve up to causing the upper valve to pass to the open position, and once the balloon has been inflated, there is a need to unscrew the discharging valve again to cause the upper valve to return to the closed position.
  • discharging valves exist in the prior art, but they disadvantageously are complex discharging valves because they comprise at least one pressurized chamber and comprise various parts which cannot be molded from plastic material or which should be mounted together in a complicated manner.
  • US3643691, GB2085567, EP0183263 are pressure valves and comprise a pressurized chamber, a siphon and a shutter.
  • Said pressurized chamber is pressure mounted with the siphon.
  • Said siphon enters the cylinder.
  • the shutter mounts a gasket and is pressure mounted inside the pressurized chamber.
  • the shutter slides from the pressurized chamber up to the inside of the siphon, thus being inside the cylinder.
  • the shutter presses a cylinder-shaped valve portion which is pressure mounted with the siphon by means of a spring.
  • said pressure valves are to be resistant and comprise various parts which cannot be molded from a plastic material or which should be pressure mounted together due to safety issues of the cylinder.

  • a cylinder 1 which consists of an enclosed tank 10 containing pressurized gas.
  • Said enclosed tank 10 comprises an upper opening which is closed to pressure by means of an upper valve 2 of cylinder 1 which passes from a closed position for maintaining the pressurized gas inside tank 10 to an open position for releasing the gas contained in tank 10.

  • the hollow body 20 comprises at least one lower portion which is a lower stop 21 and is adapted to be engaged by a lower portion 31 of shutter 3.

  • Said lower portion 31 of shutter 3 has a complementary shape with respect to the lower stop 21 of the hollow body 20 so as to keep the upper valve 2 in the closed position. When shutter 3 is engaged with the lower stop 21 of the hollow body 20, it keeps the upper valve 2 in the closed position.
  • the hollow body 20 comprises an upper portion comprising an upper wall 22 which extends upward to form a hollow cylinder around an upper portion 32 of the sealed shutter 3.

  • the discharging valve 4 can be molded in one piece of plastic material to advantageously simplify the production and mounting in place on the upper valve 2 of cylinder 1.
  • the discharging valve 4 can be screwed on the upper valve 2, but contrarily to the discharging valves of the prior art, during the rotation of the discharging valve 4 to screw it onto the upper valve 2 of cylinder 1, a piston 5 of the discharging valve 4 does not press the upper portion 32 of the shutter 3 of the upper valve 2 and does not cause the upper valve 2 to pass to the open position, but leaves the upper valve 2 in the closed position.
  • the discharging valve 4 completely screwed onto the upper valve 2 advantageously keeps the upper valve 2 in the closed position, thus not allowing the gas of the tank 10 of cylinder 1 to be released.

  • Piston 5 comprises a disc-shaped membrane 54.
  • Said membrane 54 is elastic and allows the sliding of piston 5 to be bound inside the internal cavity 400 of the hollow body 40 of the discharging valve 4. The binding of the sliding of piston 5 depends on the plastic material and on the thickness of membrane 54.

  • the longer lever 44 is, the less force is required to press lever 44 externally to press piston 5 against shutter 3 so that shutter 3 is pressed downward inside the tank 10 of cylinder 1, thus causing the upper valve 2 to pass from the closed position to the open position and allowing the helium gas to pass from tank 10 to the outside.
  • an adapter 6 for inflating balloons is provided.
  • Said adapter 6 is hollow and has an internal cavity 600 which traces the shape of the hollow spout 45 of the discharging valve 4.

  • the membrane 54 of piston 5 is sufficiently elastic to allow piston 5 to be pressed by lever 44 toward the inside of the internal cavity 400 of the hollow body 40 of the discharging valve 4 without membrane 54 breaking. Said membrane 54 is elastic and binds the sliding of piston 5 inside the internal cavity 400 of the hollow body 40 of the discharging valve 4. The user exerts an external downward thrust force on lever 44, which rotates on fulcrum F and presses piston 5 toward the inside of the internal cavity 400 of the hollow body 40 of the discharging valve 4 up to sliding shutter 3 inside the hollow body 20 of the upper valve 2 of cylinder 1 and causing said upper valve 2 to pass from the closed position to the open position.

  • the user stops exerting a force on lever 44 of the discharging valve 4 and shutter 3 is pushed upward by the pressure of the gas contained in the tank 10 of cylinder 1 , thus causing the upper valve 2 to advantageously automatically pass from the open position to the closed position and advantageously without the user having to perform other operations on cylinder 1.

  • Said handle 440 is on the opposite side with respect to the discharging spout 45.
  • An internal wall of lever 44 directed toward piston 5 and toward handle 440 mounts a membrane which allows to flex and press piston 5 toward the inside of the internal cavity 400 of the hollow body 40 of the discharging valve 4 so that piston 5 may press on shutter 3 and cause the upper valve to pass from the closed position to the open position.
