Abstract
A self-energizing valve includes a valve body defining an inner chamber having an inlet and an outlet. A valve head within the inner chamber is moveable between a first position and a second position. A valve seal in fluid communication with the inlet has a sealing surface with a sealing member between the valve head and the valve seal. The sealing member is movable between a closed position where the sealing member engages with the sealing surface and an open position where the sealing member disengages from the sealing surface to allow flow through the inlet into the inner chamber. A cam is coupled to the valve head. Rotation of the cam causes movement of the valve head between the first position and the second position to move the valve head to the first position to hold the sealing member in the closed position.
