Abstract
A device for regulating the flow of a fluid comprises a valve housing having at least two valve ports, at least one valve seat, a valve member having a closing body, and an actuating unit for actuating the closing body. The valve member further comprises an actuation section, which is connected via at least one connecting web to the closing body for moving the closing body. A surrounding seal extends between the closing body and the actuation section, and separates the closing body and the actuation section from one another. The at least one connecting web is arranged such that the closing body is pivotable upon actuation of the actuation section by the actuating unit to move the valve member and thus the closing body relative to the at least one valve seat. The valve member is arranged to minimize, during the movement of the closing body, deformations in a passage area of the seal through which the at least one connecting web extends. A valve arrangement is provided with a respective device for regulating the flow of a fluid.
