WATER AND AIR CONTROL VALVE FOR WATER SPRAYERS Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC F16K11/07 F16K31/04 F25C3/04 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to water and air feed valves for water sprayers intended for example for making at artificial snow. Valve (1) comprises body (2) with two independent paths (C1, C2) for air and water circulation. Each of said paths (C1, C2) comprises: chamber (5, 15) with slide valve (6, 16), fluid inlet channel (7, 17), fluid discharge channel (8, 18) and channel (9, 19) to discharge fluid from said outlet channel (8, 18). Valve incorporates control means for driving said slide valves (6, 16) to open position for fluid flow whereat said emptying channel (9, 19) is shutoff and to closed position for shutting-off of fluid flow whereat said channel (9, 19) is open. Said control means incorporates common drive (25) for control over said slide valves (6, 16) and structure (26) for mechanical connection of said valves (6, 16) to allow simultaneous control there over inside their appropriate chamber (5, 15). Invention covers also the method of application of above described valve.

EFFECT: higher reliability.
