ABSTRACT:
A modular control valve manifold assembly is designed for installation in the dashboard of a vehicle equipped with air brakes. The manifold houses the valving required to control the air brake system, and includes a base which provides a plurality of bosses which extend from the base. Each of the bosses house a control valve assembly which controls communication to the vehicle air brake system. The valve assemblies are retained in their bosses by a removable retaining ring, so that the valve assemblies may be easily removed from the manifold through the front of the dashboard for servicing. Furthermore, although the manifold may house an indefinite number of valves, only a single inlet and a single exhaust are required. Each of the valve assemblies controls communication between the inlet, the exhaust, and one of several corresponding outlet ports.
