Single-plate slide, especially single-plate pipe bridge slide (10) with a slide-plate (16) and if necessary a pipe bridge (20), which is or are movable by means of an actuating device (18, 19) within this casing (11) in order to close or open a fluid passage (17) formed in a casing (11), the slide plate (16) or pipe bridge (20) having lateral seal surfaces which correspond with seal surfaces located on the casing side, especially annular seal surfaces (14, 15). At least one of the seal surfaces (14, 15) on the casing side forms part of a seal ring (23) located in the casing (11), which abuts with resilient pre-stressing on the facing seal surface of the slide plate (16) or pipe bridge (20).

Slide, particularly pipe bridge slide

A double disk wedge valve the valve disk of which is movable by an actuating rod and is provided with a pipe bridge which includes two sealing rings connected by way of a compensator, said sealing rings in the open position of the valve being urged by elastic bias against the sealing seats of the valve housing, wherein said compensator comprises an inner pipe section and an outer pipe section extending in coaxial relationship therewith. The outer pipe section is fixedly joined, especially welded, to both sealing rings. Also, it has a circumferentially extending indentation. The inner pipe section is fixedly joined to only one of said two sealing rings while it is axially movable relative to the other one. Within the valve housing a gas pressure can be set which is higher than the pressure in the valve passageway in the open position of the valve.
