ABSTRACT:
Various embodiments of pinch valves include an annular rib 5 formed on the inner walls of an elastic tube 4. The annular rib 5 is obliquely oriented in the elastic tube 4 and permits passage of fluid therethrough when the tube 4 is not deformed. Upon selective deformation of the tube 4 by choking means 6,7, the annular rib 5 prevents passage of fluid through the tube 4.
