Definitions
- the invention relates to a gas inlet valve which incorporates a safety device allowing the stopping of a hot water production appliance of the water heater or gas bath heater type in the event of a draft anomaly in particular in the flue gas exhaust pipe and is particularly applicable to appliances without a permanent pilot.
- a safety device must be able to react to any anomaly, due for example to a bad draft, a backflow, an obstruction of the duct or a extractor failure, anomaly which causes the combustion products to be pushed back into the room.
- thermosensitive element placed at the end of the draft hood opens at a certain temperature and closes a gas inlet solenoid valve.
- a heat-sensitive bulb acts on an expandable membrane which itself cuts off the admission of gas to the pilot of the appliance or acts directly on its thermoelectric safety mechanism to bring the appliance to safety.
- a draft anomaly in a duct is detected by means of a small tube which modifies the operation of a pilot light with air and gas mixture and then puts the device in safety.
- thermoelectric safety and that one cannot therefore intervene in reaction to an anomaly in the combustion products evacuation pipe.
- the solution which consists in making the gas inlet valve of the appliance act positively, a safety mechanism using a lever for triggering the cocking member of said valve and a movable member. controlled by a thermosensitive element arranged in a good place to react for example from a rise in temperature in a flue gas evacuation pipe.
- This safety mechanism as described in European patent application EP-A 0 185 587 in the name of the Applicant comprises a lever arming mechanism of the gas inlet valve to the appliance which can be snapped onto a lever. triggering whose pivoting disarms and closes said gas inlet valve under the effect of its return spring and which has a thermosensitive element reacting in a manner known per se to a rise in temperature at the level of the evacuation of combustion products, which acts positively on said triggering lever of the arming mechanism by means of an expandable bellows whose displacement causes the pivoting of a branch of said lever and stops the device .
- said valve comprising a rotary cocking button and a metastable mechanism of the type with a blistering membrane linked to a bulb and reacting to a rise in temperature of the combustion products
- a cam mounted to rotate around its axis under the action. of said button, which cooperates with the control rod of the gas inlet valve and which is also movable in translation on said axis under the action of the blistering membrane mechanism to make it escape from the control rod of the valve and put the device safe.
- the cam comprises an off-center section disposed between a cylindrical section of small diameter and a cylindrical section of larger diameter, both centered on its axis, a generator of the off-center section extending a generator of the section of small diameter, another diametrically opposite generator of this off-center section extending a generator of the section of larger diameter.
- the operating axis of the valve control rod is in abutment against the edge of the intermediate cylindrical section of the cam and protrudes above the cylindrical section of smaller diameter.
- the body 17 of the gas inlet valve contains a valve 6 connecting a gas inlet pipe 18 and the outlet pipe 19 to the appliance.
- a plug 20 closing off the body 17 is crossed in leaktight fashion by the operating rod 21 of the valve 6 normally returned to its seat by the spring 11.
- Said body 17 of the tap is integral with a control box 22 including a tubular part 15 is aligned with the rod 21 of the valve.
- This tubular part contains an axis 7 which abuts against the end of the rod 21, which opens on the other side into the housing 22 and is supported on a cam 2.
- the latter can rotate around its axis AA ' and has the shape shown in FIG. 2.
- the cylindrical section 23 of the cam 2 is provided with a recess 26 with two internal plates to receive without friction an operating needle 27 secured to a rotary control button 1.
- the latter can occupy two positions between the rest position shown and an arming position where it has rotated 180 ° counterclockwise, against the return force of a torsion spring 12.
- a ball retainer 14 associated with a spring 16, integrated in the button 1 serves to maintain the latter in one or other of its two positions thanks to two suitable housings (28, 28 ') provided in the housing 22.
- the other cylindrical section 24 of the cam 2 has a threaded interior orifice 29 to which is fixed an adjustment screw 9.
- This screw is coaxial with a fixed rod 3 on which it can slide.
- the rod carries an end stop 30 for a spring 13 bearing against the screw 9.
- the valve body 17 also supports a safety assembly known per se consisting of a blistering metal membrane 8 capable of reacting in the direction of a passage to the convex shape shown in dotted lines during the heating of a bulb placed in an appropriate position, for example in a VMC sheath and connected to the membrane by the conduit 5.
- the membrane 8 bears against the end of a lever 4 pivoting about an axis 10 and the other end of which abuts against screw 9.
- the fail-safe valve as described, operates as follows.
- Figure 1 shows the elements in the rest position when the valve 6 is closed on its seat.
- the user when he wants to arm the device, turns the button 1 anticlockwise until the ball 14 is engaged in the other housing 28 'of the housing 22.
- the maneuvering needle 27 engaged in the recess 26 made the cam 2 rotate in an identical manner.
- the axis 7 bears on the off-centered cylindrical section 25 of the said cam and pushed by the latter goes up into the part tubular 15, and exerts a push on the rod 21 in the direction of the opening of the valve 6 against the return force of the spring 11.
- the gas coming from the pipe 18 is therefore admitted towards the device through the pipe 19.
- the diaphragm 8 and the lever 4 occupy the position shown.
- the axis 7 exerting pressure on the part 25 of the cam 2, normally at the axis AA '(FIG. 2), the button remains in the armed position, helped in this by the snap-fastening of the ball 14 in the recess 28 'under the action of the small spring 16.
- the cam 2 remains offset from the axis 7 preventing the device from being reset. This means that, even if the user, after having returned the button 1 to its starting position, wanted to arm it again immediately, its rotation would have no effect on the axis 7 and the valve 6 could in no case to be reopened.
- the device is positively safe because in the event of a bulb leakage or failure, the blistering membrane immediately takes on the convex shape for which there is action on the lever 4 and securing the device.
- the device according to the invention can operate not only with the blistering blade previously described, but also with an expansion bellows, for example coupled to a flaming blade. bage or with any expandable system whose sealing and metastability functions are not provided by the same element.
- the user can stop the device by turning the button 1 clockwise, which brings the cam 2 back to the position in FIG. 1 for which the axis 7 is lowered and the valve 6 is closed under the action of the spring 11.
- the spacing between the screw 9 and the cam 2 can be adjusted, these two parts cooperating by a threaded connection. It is thus possible to adjust the "overhang" of the axis 7 on the part 25 of the cam as a function of the movement of the arm 4.
