ABSTRACT:
A pressure control valve assembly comprising a rubber diaphragm to which is applied the negative pressure of the engine intake manifold and the exhaust gas pressure of the engine exhaust manifold. The diaphragm of the present invention is formed with a gradual descent sloping down from a valve-actuating central portion to an outer periphery. Adjacent to one portion of the outer periphery of the diaphragm a port opening to the outside of the valve assembly is provided. Thus, any gas ingredients such as condensed water can be expelled along the descent of the diaphragm via the port without gathering on the diaphragm surface which will therefore be free from objectionable oxidation or corrosion.
