Patent

CA 2530507

A shut-off valve or connecting valve (10) capable of connecting a fuel supply (16) to a fuel cell (IS) is disclosed. The valve comprises a first valve component (12) and a second valve component (14). Each valve component (12, 14) has an outer housing (20) and a biased slidable member (22) disposed inside the housing (20) forming an internal seal. During the connection process, the two valve components (12, 14) establish an inter-component seal. Afterward, in one suitable embodiment the slidable member (20) moves inward and opens the internal seal in the valve component (12, 14) to establish a now path. In another embodiment, the slidable member (20) moves inward and exposes a first filler (90) and the first filler abuts a second filler (104) in the other valve component to establish a flow path. In other embodiments, at least one valve component is sized and dimensioned to limit access to the internal seal.

La présente invention se rapporte à une valve d'arrêt ou de raccordement (10) permettant de raccorder une alimentation en combustible (16) à une pile à combustible (18). Ladite valve comprend un premier composant de valve (12) et un second composant de valve (14). Chaque composant de valve (12, 14) possède un logement externe (20) et un élément coulissant sollicité (22) disposé à l'intérieur du logement (20) formant un joint interne. Au cours du processus de raccordement, les deux composants de valve (12, 14) établissent un joint intercomposant. Ensuite, dans un mode de réalisation adapté, l'élément coulissant (20) se déplace vers l'intérieur et ouvre le joint interne dans le composant de valve (12, 14) de manière à établir un chemin d'écoulement. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, l'élément coulissant (20) se déplace vers l'intérieur et expose un premier élément de remplissage (90), et ce premier élément de remplissage est en aboutement avec un second élément de remplissage (104) dans l'autre composant de valve de manière à établir un chemin d'écoulement. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, au moins un composant de valve est taillé et dimensionné de manière à limiter l'accès au joint interne.
