ABSTRACT:
A compressor plate valve has a valve seat (1) with flow passages (6), a valve guard and a valve plate (7) formed from concentric rings (16, 17) joined together by radial webs (18). In order to damp the valve plate (7), and in particular to lessen its impact both on opening and on closing the valve, and to reduce troublesome adhesion between the plates, the valve plate (10) comprises a closure plate (14) of soft material such as plastics, and a guide plate (15) of hard material such as steel. The two plates have the same outline in plan view and lie firmly against each other, the soft closure plate (14) facing the valve seat (1) and the guide plate (15) facing the valve guard (2). Only the outer ring (16) of the two plates (14, 15) is loaded by springs (13) and is substantially wider than the inner rings (17).
