Abstract

See full text

A valve is provided with an improved seal between the valve body and the rotatable valve stem. A high pressure fluid seal is formed by a pressure-responsive lip seal. A spring positioned between the lip seal and the valve stem sealing surface provides a substantially axially directed force to a metal O-ring, which biases the lip seal into sealing engagement with the valve body and stem under relatively low pressure.
