Abstract
A valve assembly for connection to an opening provided in a housing of a well tool device includes a fluid communication channel, a flapper valve device, a flapper element supporting device, and a securing device. The fluid communication channel provides fluid communication from an outside of the housing to a bore provided on the inside of the housing. The flapper valve device includes a flapper element configured to be in a closed position in which the fluid communication channel is closed and an open position in which the fluid communication channel is open. The flapper element is biased to the closed position. The flapper element supporting device supports the flapper element when the flapper element is in the open position. The securing device secures the flapper valve device and the flapper element supporting device to the opening. The securing device includes a through bore forming a first part of the fluid communication channel.
