Abstract
A valve (1) for dispensing a fluid under pressure has a valve body (2) made of elastomeric material. It has an inlet passage (5) and an outlet passage (10), shut-off device (100, 19) for, in response to an actuation command, placing the inlet passage (5) in communication with the outlet passage (10), and elastic return device (20) for, in the absence of actuation command, urging the shut-off device (100, 19) into the closed position. The valve (1) has a rigid element arranged inside the inlet passage (5), a portion (109) of which emerges from the valve body (2) by a significant amount, and a part (104) forming a seal between the rigid element and the inlet passage (5).
