ABSTRACT:
A check valve with self-replenishing hydraulic damping system having a main valve chamber with an inlet and outlet and an adjustment valve aperture allowing for communication between the main valve chamber and the exterior of the valve. A valve disk is used to prevent upstream fluid flow when the valve disk is engaged with the valve seat. A biasing spring exerts a continuous upstream force upon the valve disk. A piston, one end of which is attached to the valve disk, the other end of which reciprocates with a fluid-filled cylinder having a servant check valve permitting upstream fluid flow into the cylinder and preventing downstream fluid flow out of the cylinder, alternately forces the cylinder fluid out of the cylinder through a control aperture into the main valve chamber by moving downstream and creates a vacuum within the cylinder by moving upstream, thereby replenishing the fluid within the cylinder. A valve needle in dual reciprocation with the adjustment valve aperture and the control aperture allows for control of the rate at which fluid both enters and exits the cylinder. The cylinder is secured inside the valve by a plurality of flanges.
