needle valves are very useful for our life
A Needle Valve having improved accuracy and wear characteristics is disclosed in which the valve stem is subjected to a constant force to prevent backlash throughout its entire movement with respect to the valve seat. In addition, the needle contained within the valve stem has a tapered end which moves within the cylindrical bore in a valve seat to control fluid passing through the valve and such needle is affixed to the valve stem only at its other end remote from its tapered end. The needle thus floats for a substantial portion of its length and its tapered end is relatively flexible and free of movement. The needle is, however, angled with respect to its valve seat such that the needle physically makes contact with the internal surface of the valve seat and maintains that contact throughout its lateral movement within the valve seat.
A Needle Valve comprising a housing having an inlet means, and outlet means and a flow path formed there between, a cylindrical valve seat in said flow path, a hollow valve stemthreadedly engaged with said housing and moveable coaxially toward and away from said cylindrical valve seat, said hollow valve stem having its end remote from said cylindrical valve seat closed and its end near said cylindrical valve seat open, atapered needle affixed within said hollow valve stem by having one end secured to said closed end of said hollow valve stem and having its free end extending outwardly from said open end of said hollow valve stem and having its main axis at an angle tothe main axis of said hollow valve stem, said needle adapted to enter and withdraw from said cylindrical valve seat as said hollow valve stem moves toward and away therefrom to decrease and increase, respectively, the flow through said Needle Valve, saidneedle physically touching the inner surface of said cylindrical valve seat throughout its movement therein.
