Abstract
The invention is an improved valve having a valve body, a valve stem having a valve plug portion and a valve stem portion, and a valve guide having an aperture in which the valve stem portion is received for reciprocal movement of the valve stem longitudinally inside the valve body. A valve seat is supported in the valve body and includes a pair of spaced apart circular valve seat surfaces that each sealingly engage a separate surface of the valve plug portion;. A spring biases the valve plug portion into sealing engagement with the valve seat. The valve seat has a pair of sealing surfaces that are brought in sealing engagement with distinct surface portions of the valve stem to provide improved and redundant sealing function. The valve has improved longevity and reliability.
Description
- This application claims priority to U.S. Patent Application Ser. No. 61/379,098, filed Sep. 1, 2010.
- The invention relates generally to a valve and, more specifically, a valve having an improved seat that increases its duty life in harsh environments.
- Automated car washes use a large number of valves for the control the flow of water as well as solutions or mixtures of soaps, detergents, cleaners, waxes, polishes, and the like. Many of these fluids are corrosive and may react with normal valve components. Additionally, the valves must operate at high pressures, frequently at high temperatures, and may have short duty cycles. All of these factors shorten the life and reliability of the valves.
- The effect of valve failure can be substantial. Valve failure can result in reduced performance or failure of the carwash. The valves are used to prevent the unwanted flow of fluids from reservoirs of the carwash solutions such that failure of the valve can result in dispensing of the fluid under undesirable conditions, possibly disrupting the carwash process and certainly wasting the undesirably dispensed fluid. Perhaps worse, the valve failure by result in fluids mixing from reservoir to reservoir, ruining the entire reservoir of these expensive fluids.
- What is needed is a valve that eliminates the plastic valve seats of O-rings found in conventional valves and has a long life under the harsh operating conditions of automated carwashes, operates reliably, is economical and easy to install.
- The invention consists of a durable and reliable poppet valve suitable for use in the harsh environment of automated carwashes. The valve has a cylindrical valve body with threaded ports on either end for connection of the valve into a fluid line. A valve stem, having a valve plug at its downstream end portion, is received for reciprocal longitudinal movement inside the valve body by a valve guide. A spring is received about the valve stem and is compressed between the valve guide and an end cap secured to the upstream end of the valve stem. A metal valve seat is received in a seat support shelf of the valve body. The valve plug has a convex upstream face that, when in sealing engagement with the valve seat seals the valve closed, preventing fluid flow. The spring thus biases the valve stem to bring the valve plug into sealing engagement with the valve seat. If, however, fluid pressure on the upstream face of the valve plug is sufficient to overcome the biasing force of the spring, the valve plug will be moved out of sealing engagement with the valve seat and fluid will be allowed to flow through the valve. The valve seat has a profile that provides an improved sealing function and lengthens the service life and reliability of the valve.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an improved valve.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a valve with improved longevity and reliability.
- Still another object of the invention is to provide a valve that reliably controls the flow of fluids under harsh conditions.
- Yet another object of the invention is to provide a valve that reliably controls the flow of fluids and conditions common to automated carwashes.

FIGS. 1 and 2 , generally at 10, is a valve representing a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Thevalve 10 has a generallyelongated body 12 with athroughbore 14 for the flow of fluids through thevalve 10 under desired conditions. Extending radially across thethroughbore 14 from a side wall of thebody 12 to an opposite sidewall is avalve guide 16 having aguide hole 18 aligned longitudinally of thevalve body 12. Avalve stem 20 has an extendedstem portion 22 and avalve plug portion 24. Thestem portion 22 is received inside theguide hole 18 for reciprocal longitudinal guided movement of thevalve stem 20 inside thevalve body 12. - Included in the
valve body 12 is aseat support 26 that defines a circular aperture. Avalve seat 28 is fitted into and supported by theseat support 26. Thevalve plug portion 24 is brought into and out of contact with thevalve seat 28 as thevalve stem 20 moves reciprocally inside thevalve body 12. Acap 30 is secured to the free end portion of thestem portion 22, for example bythreads 32 on the inside of thecap 30 and cooperatingthreads 34 on outer periphery of the stem portion. Aspring 36 is placed around thestem portion 22 and, upon assembly, is compressed between thevalve guide 16 and thecap 30. Accordingly, it is seen that thespring 36 biases thevalve plug portion 24 away from the open position (FIG. 3 ) into contact engagement with the valve seat 28 (FIGS. 4 and 5 ). - An improvement of the
valve 10 is the profile of thevalve seat 28. As best seen inFIGS. 5 and 6 , thevalve seat 28 has a pair of circumferential sealing surfaces, downstream orouter surface 38 and upstream orinner surface 40. Thesesurfaces valve seat 28 at a profile that matches the contour of the upstream surface of thevalve plug portion 24 at the area of contact between the two when the valve is in its closed position (FIG. 5 ). Accordingly, thevalve 10 provides multiple areas of contact between thevalve stem 20 and thevalve body 12 andvalve seat 28 to greatly enhance the sealing performance of thevalve 10 against the undesired passage of fluid through thevalve 10. In the preferred embodiment, the outer contour of the upstream surface of thevalve plug portion 24 is the surface of a frustum or frustoconical and the sealing surfaces of thevalve seat - The
valve body 12 has threaded apertures at theupstream end 38 and thedownstream end 40 to facilitate insertion of thevalve 10 into a system of plumbing, such as the manifold 42 (FIGS. 7 and 8 ). Themanifold 42 is a typical plumbing system found in an automated carwash wherein a plurality, seven inFIGS. 7 and 8 , of thevalves 10 a-g are used to control the flow of fluids from a plurality of reservoirs, pumps or other sources. The impact of failure of one or more of the valves can be easily understood by reference toFIGS. 7 and 8 . For example, ifvalve 10 a should fail and stick open, fluid entering the manifold 46 through valve 10 b will now backflow throughvalve 10 a, contaminating a reservoir that feedsvalve 10 a. - In a preferred embodiment, the upstream face of the
valve plug portion 24 may be concave so as to increase the surface area of thevalve stem 20 and thereby increase the sealing force. - Referring to
FIG. 6 , the profile of a preferred embodiment of thevalve seat 28 is shown, with thickness of section of thevalve seat 28 on the figure. The diameter of distance A-A is 0.96 inches, distance B-B is 1.20 inches, distance C-C is 1.30 inches, and distance D-D is 1.40 inches. - An exemplary car wash arrangement of components is illustrated in
FIG. 9 , divided into a low and high pressure side. On the low pressure side, a low pressure pump and injectors provide chemicals from chemical barrels to a chemical manifold (FIG. 8 ) to a valve of the present invention. Water from a high pressure pump is provided downstream of the valve as is a spot free rinse solution, leading past a check valve to the low pressure output. On the high pressure side, a high pressure pump provides water for an under body wash, through a check valve and an air pressure check valve to the high pressure output. - The foregoing descriptions comprise illustrative embodiments of the present inventions. The foregoing embodiments described herein may vary based on the ability, experience, and preference of those skilled in the art. The foregoing description and drawings merely explain and illustrate the invention, and the invention is not limited thereto, except insofar as the claims are so limited. Those skilled in the art who have the disclosure before them will be able to make modifications and variations therein without departing from the scope of the invention.
