ABSTRACT:
A floor scrubber solution valve for dividing and metering a supply of cleaning solution to a pair of scrubbing brushes includes a generally cylindrical housing having an inlet port formed in one end and a pair of circumferentially spaced outlet ports formed in the wall of the housing. A generally circular valve or gate element is rotatably disposed in the housing. The valve element includes an inlet bore alignable with the housing inlet port upon rotation of the valve element. A transversely extending flow divider passage intersects the valve inlet bore and defines at each end valve element outlet ports. Diametrically opposed, narrow grooves formed in the valve element communicate with the flow divider passage and initiate flow from the inlet bore to the housing outlet ports as the inlet bore is aligned with the inlet port and maintain the flow to each of the outlet ports substantially equal.
