    摘要: A valve includes a valve housing having first and second regions, at least one valve chamber configured to be pressurized with air and including an actuating element for opening and closing a valve opening and an actuator for actuating the actuating element, both arranged in the first region. A printed circuit board extends into each valve chamber and to electrically operate the actuator, the printed circuit board(s) being connected to a common main printed circuit board arranged in the second region. Each valve chamber is surrounded by boundary surfaces closing the valve chamber in a substantially gas-tight manner. An open space open to at least two oppositely disposed sides of the valve housing extends between at least two of the valve chambers, and a connecting member of the printed circuit boards extends through connecting openings of the boundary surfaces of adjacent valve chambers and the open space. A sealing material located in the open space encloses the connecting member and the connecting openings in a gas-tight manner at least in the direction of the oppositely disposed sides. A method of manufacturing such a valve includes manufacturing a conductor element including the printed circuit boards and the main printed circuit board; introducing the conductor element into the valve housing; and filling the open space at least in part with the sealing material from at least one side after the introducing step so that the sealing material seals the connecting member and the connecting openings in a gas-tight manner at least in the direction of the oppositely disposed sides.

    摘要: A leakage blocking device of a valve is disclosed. When a fluid flowing in a flow path 11 leaks through a gap between the outer circumferential surface of a valve stem bottom (21) and a bottom guide hole (31), a plug 53 of a piston 50 is pushed into a sealing oil chamber 45 by a pressure P1 of the leaked fluid acting on a bottom pressure acting surface S1 of the piston and pressurizes a sealing oil L in the sealing oil chamber 45 to a pressure P2 higher than the pressure P1 of the leaked fluid, thereby blocking leakage of fluid of the valve.

    摘要: A valve device for a fuel tank of a motor vehicle includes, for example, a housing having a tank connection for connecting the valve device to a vent line going to or coming from the fuel tank, and a filter connection for connecting the valve device to a vent line going to or coming from an activated charcoal filter. The tank connection and the filter connection are fluidically connected to one another inside the housing through a vent duct. A valve is arranged inside the housing for opening and at least partially closing the vent duct, wherein the valve has a valve element that is movably mounted between an opening position and a closed position inside the housing along a longitudinal axis of the housing. An actuating element is accessible from outside the valve device, which is movably mounted along the longitudinal axis inside the housing and motion-coupled in such a way with the valve element that a movement of the actuating element in a closing direction moves the valve element in closing direction. A valve element return element is configured to move the valve element in an opening direction, and arranged outside the vent duct, between the valve element and the housing.
