Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a gas cylinder valve assembly which is attached to a gas cylinder containing compressed gas or liquefied gas for the use of taking out the gas and charging it, and to a pressure reducing valve provided in the valve assembly.
  • the valve assembly is comprised of regulators, gauges and delivery valves.
  • the cylinders are designed to be portable and are generally long cylinders in shape, they are subject to be knocked over by accident.
  • the valve system being the weak link in the compressed gas system, such an accidental turning of the bottle could cause unexpected impacts to the valve system which results in the threaded junction of valve and tank or the valve assembly rupturing or breaking the pressurized seal between valve and tank, the sudden escape of compressed gas could result in the release of violent gas resulting in destruction of the whole system.
  • the cylinders When gases are supplied in gas cylinders, the cylinders have a stop angle valve at the end on top of the cylinder.
  • the cap When the gas in the cylinder is to be used at low pressure, the cap is taken off and a pressure -regulating assembly is attached to the stop valve.
  • This attachment typically has a pressure regulator with inlet and outlet pressure gauges and a further downstream needle valve and outlet connection. The regulator is be adjusted to control the outlet pressure, which will limit the maximum flow of gas out of the cylinder at the pressure shown by the downstream gauge.
  • the pressure reducing valve provided in a gas cylinder valve assembly of the traditional gas cylinder has a piston member inserted into a pressure reducing valve chamber within a housing, the piston member being adapted so as to move for opening and closing by a balance between a spring force for valve opening and a secondary (valve-outlet) pressure for valve closing.
  • a housing for the valve assembly has to be made compact in accordance with the size of a gas cylinder. Therefore, conventionally, superposed coned disc springs are adapted so as to apply the spring force for valve opening in order that a pressure reducing valve to be provided within the housing can be made compact.
