ABSTRACT:
A modular valve arrangement, including: a plurality of individual values each having a passage therein with a longitudinal axis, and a fixing arrangement for joining the valves together into a joined condition in which the passages cooperate to form at least one pressure-fluid line through the entire valve arrangement. The fixing arrangement includes, for each valve, a dovetail tenon on one surface of the valve and a dovetailed mortise on an opposite surface of the valve. The mortise and tenon of adjacent valves being engageable with one another in the joined condition, and extending on their respective valve side in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the pressure-fluid line. For securing the valves in the joined condition, each valve includes a nub on one surface and a corresponding depression on an opposite surface of the valve arranged so that the nub of one valve engages the depression of an adjacent valve in the joined condition.
