Claims. (Cl. 137-563) This invention relatesl to apparatus for laundry machines and, more particularly, to a ow regulating valve.
This application is a division of my application, Serial` No. 185,711', led September 20, 1950, now Patent No; 2,729,961, granted l an. 10, 1956.
An object of the invention is to providea valve for controlling the rate of solvent ow from the tub of a laundry machine to a storage tank positioned below theA tub.
An object of the invention is to provide a flow regulating valve which may be operated by an automatic electrical control system.
Another object of the invention is to provide a latch valve'which may be adjusted to regulate uid ow through the valve and which may be unlatched `from a remote point.
There is disclosed in. the above-referenced application, of which this application forms` a division, a laundry machine in which the cleaning solvent is. continuously circulated from a reservoir through a iilter and tov the tub of the machine and back to the. reservoir.. The tub of the machine is positioned above, the reservoir, and the solvent return is` made by means` of a. drain system whichincludes` a valve for controlling the rate at. which` the. solvent is. drained from the tub. A. constant rate pump is, employed for pumping the solvent from the reservoir into. thev tub is determined. by the adjustment ofthe valve.
The present application is concerned with the flow regulating valve of the laundry machine. The valve, in its novel aspects, incorporates a latch holding mechanism for maintaining the valve in an open ,position and an adjusting mechanismv for the latch4 to enable control of the lrate of solvent flow through the valve. Anelectric solenoid is adapted, whenenergized, to lift the valvernember of thevalve andV deect the latch member so as to permit Vthe valve member to lfall into a closed position upon de'energization of--t'hesolenoid. In another aspect, the valve is so design-ed and constructed that the inlet portion. of the valve is disposed above the outlet portion so that fthe k valve is 's'elfdraining 'Other objects, 'features and advantages of the invention will be more readily apparent from a consideration of the following detailed specification taken in connecltion with the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. l is a schematic representation of a portion of the laundry machine of the invention;
Fig. 2 is a side view of the valve and the control mechanism therefor;
Fig. 3 is an end view of the valve taken in the direction 3-3 of Fig. 2; and
Fig. 4 is a plan view taken Fig. 2.
Referring now to Fig. invention incorporates a in the direction 4-4 in 1, the laundry machine of the laundry tub 10, a reservoir 11,
a pump 12 and a solvent filter 13. The pump 12 con- "f'fti'uually draws solvent from the reservoir 11 and forces so that the level of solventv inthe tubl mice 2 it 'through tlreiilter '13 and into thetub y10'. A'valve 14 in a drain pipe *15: regulates the return ow ofthe solvent'v from the tub 10 through a'button'trap 16 and into the reservoir 11'.
The valve 14 comprisesfa' valve' bo'dy 17' having an inlet opening 1S and an outlet opening 19. Thevalve body 17 maybe formedias aninte'gral part ofthe casing 20 of the button trap' 1'6 so that'theoutlet opening'19 opens directly intov the' button trap. Such an arrange ment is, however, not essential to the practice ofthe invention.
The' inlet portion of the valve body 17, which includes the inlet opening 18', is separated from the outlet portion ofk thev'alve body 17, which includes the outlet opening 19, by a horizontal partiti'oumem'ber V21. A valve opening 22 permits solvent flow from the inlet18 to the outlet opening 19, the vertical arrange-.mentv of the inlet and outlet portions being such that the valve is selfdraining.
The valve opening'22 is closed by a valve member 23 which cooperates with a valve seat 24 supported by the horizontal partition member 21. The valve member 23 is supported by a valve stem 25 which is adapted to reciprocate the val've member in a vertical direction. The Valve stem passes vertically through a valve head 26 which. is mounted at the top of the valve body 17. A central portion 27` of the valve head is recessed to receive a packing (not shown) which is held in position byV a cap 28.
A solenoid 29' has the stator 3'0 thereof supported by two piers 31 and 32 which form a part of the valve head 2S. The. armature 33 of the solenoid 29 is connected. at its lower end to the upper end of the valve stem 25 and atits upper end to a lever 34. The lever 34 is pivoted at its outer end on a link 35 which is supported from the upper end of the solenoid stator by an arm 36. A coil 37 of the solenoid 28 is adapted to be connected to suitable automatic control circuits which. form a part of the laundry machine.
The lever 34 is adapted to be held by a latch memberV 38 which is mounted on a side panel 39 of the laundry machine by means of an adjustable support 40. The adjustable support 40 comprises a block 41 which isiixed to ther panel 39' ofthe laundry machine by two screws adjusting bolt 44 which is received in an opening which extends vertically through the block. 41. An adjusting screw 45 is held in an opening 46 in the block 41 and bears against the block to position the adjusting bolt 44 in a verticalV direction upon rotation of. the screwV 45. An elongatedopening 47 in the side 39 of the laundry machine permits adjustment of. the screw 45= by the operator of lthe machine.
1n operation, the valve member 23 is moved into an open position by lifting the handle 54 of the lever 34. The lever 34 is locked in an open position by bringing the latch member 38 into a locking position with the projection 51 under and supporting the arm. The adjust ing screw 45 is then positioned to adjust the valve member 23 for the desired rate of ow through the valve opening 22.
Upon termination of the particular dry cleaning operation, the solvent is drained from the tub by energizing the solenoid coil 37. Thereupon, the valve stem 25 is lifted to pull the valve member 23 to a wide-open position and the lever arm 34 is lifted to engage the deflecting member 52 and force the latch member 38 from the locking position. After the solvent is drained from the tub, the solenoid coil 37 is deenergized, and the valve member 23 is dropped into a closed position in engagement with the valve seat 24.
It will be seen that the arrangement of the valve mechanism is such as to enable precise control of the rate of solvent replacement in the tub while permitting a particularly simple method of automatically controlling the operation of the valve. Further, the design and construction of the valve is such that it may be incorporated as an integral part of the button trap 20, thus greatly reducing the cost of manufacturing these parts of the machine.
It is to be understood the specific nature of the present disclosure is not intended to be restrictive or contining and that various rearrangements of parts and modifications of design may be resorted to without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention as herein claimed.
