ABSTRACT:
A self-piercing needle valve having a body and a shank is adapted for mounting upon a pipe. A valve support plate extends transversely of and is secured to said shank and has a right-angle extension at one end. Said extension along its length on one side has a series of variably spaced parallel wedge-shaped slots corresponding to different pipe diameters. The support plate is adapted to extend transversely of and bear against one side of a pipe. An anchor plate is spaced from and opposed to the support plate and adapted to bear against the opposite side of said pipe. A transverse slot through one end of the anchor plate is adapted to loosely receive said extension upon one side of the pipe, with portions of said anchor plate bounding said slot retainingly nested within one of said notches. A fastener upon the other side of the pipe extends between and interconnects the opposing ends of said plates for drawing the plates together and for gripping the pipe therebetween.
