Abstract

In a valve, in particular an outlet valve of a hydraulic piston pump for delivering a fluid, includes a valve seat and a valve closing body. A valve orifice is formed in the valve seat, and the valve closing body is arranged on the valve seat. The valve closing body is configured to selectively open and close the valve orifice, and the valve closing body includes a sealing bead which forms a sealing fit with the valve seat when the valve orifice is in the closed state.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A valve, comprising:
a valve seat having a seat face and an orifice face, the orifice face defining a valve orifice extending through the valve seat, the seat face intersecting the orifice face at the valve orifice; and
a valve closing body arranged on the valve seat and configured to selectively open and close the valve orifice,
wherein the valve closing body has (i) an outer lateral surface that faces the seat face and that narrows conically towards the valve orifice and (ii) an elastic sealing bead formed integrally with the outer lateral surface and configured to directly contact the seat face so as to form a sealing fit with the seat face when the valve orifice is in a closed state,
wherein the elastic sealing bead runs continuously around the outer lateral surface and forms a closed ring that bears against the seat face,
wherein the valve closing body includes a guide mechanism configured to extend into the valve orifice to guide the valve closing body relative to the valve seat,
wherein the valve closing body has one of a plate-like configuration and a dome-shaped configuration,
wherein the guide mechanism has at least one fluid-conducting recess and at least one region configured to rest against the orifice face to guide the valve closing body, and
wherein the at least one fluid-conducting recess and the at least one region are arranged on the guide mechanism such that the at least one fluid-conducting recess and the at least one region overlap along at least one plane disposed perpendicular to a direction of movement of the valve closing body within the valve orifice.

2. A hydraulic piston pump, comprising:
a valve including:
a valve seat having a seat face and an orifice face, the orifice face defining a valve orifice extending through the valve seat, the seat face intersecting the orifice face at the valve orifice; and
a valve closing body arranged on the valve seat and configured to selectively open and close the valve orifice,
wherein the valve closing body has (i) an outer lateral surface that faces the seat face and that narrows conically towards the valve orifice and (ii) an elastic sealing bead formed integrally with the outer lateral surface and configured to directly contact the seat face so as to form a sealing fit with the seat face when the valve orifice is in a closed state, and
wherein the elastic sealing bead runs continuously around the outer lateral surface and forms a closed ring that bears against the seat face.

3. The hydraulic piston pump as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the sealing bead is configured as a sealing edge.

4. The hydraulic piston pump as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the valve closing body includes a guide mechanism configured to extend into the valve orifice to guide the valve closing body relative to the valve seat.

5. The hydraulic piston pump as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising a restoring mechanism arranged on an outflow side of the valve and configured to load the valve closing body with a restoring force to urge the valve closing body against the valve seat.

6. The hydraulic piston pump as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the valve closing body has one of a plate-like configuration and a dome-shaped configuration.

7. A vehicle brake system, comprising:
a hydraulic piston pump including:
a valve having:
a valve seat having a seat face and an orifice face, the orifice face defining a valve orifice extending through the valve seat, the seat face intersecting the orifice face at the valve orifice; and
a valve closing body arranged on the valve seat and configured to selectively open and close the valve orifice,
wherein the valve closing body has (i) an outer lateral surface that faces the seat face and that narrows conically towards the valve orifice and (ii) an elastic sealing bead formed integrally with the outer lateral surface and configured to directly contact the seat face so as to form a sealing fit with the seat face when the valve orifice is in a closed state, and

wherein the elastic sealing bead runs continuously around the outer lateral surface and forms a closed ring that bears against the seat face.
