Abstract
In a poppet valve the guide attachment ( ) of each sealing member ( ) together with the spring ( ) is arranged and supported in a cup-like suspension member ( ) inserted in a continuous receiving bore ( ) in the catcher plate ( ) and is guided with its external periphery at least in part directly on the internal periphery of the suspension member ( ), as a result of which the guide length of the sealing member ( ) and thus the length of stroke thereof becomes independent of the thickness of the catcher plate ( ). As a result, the production, assembly and storage are simplified and new fields of application for valves of this type are opened up.
