Patent

CA 2162535

There is presented a valve comprising a body having a conduit therethrough and a bore therein intersecting the conduit. The valve further comprises a plug for disposition in the body. The plug includes stem, handle, gate and base portions. The gate portion is provided with a hole therethrough and is rotatably movable between a position wherein the hole is in alignment with the conduit and a position wherein the hole is at least in part removed from alignment with the conduit. The valve base portion is provided with leaf springs extending therefrom and having hook portions on free ends thereof. In assembly of the valve, the hook portions are deflected inwardly, when the plug is inserted into the body, by a body shelf portion extending inwardly of the bore. The hook portions are adapted to spring outwardly upon passage of the hook portions over the shelf portion, the hook portions being thereby captured under the shelf portion, such that the plug is prevented from substantial axial movement in the body.
