Abstract

See full text

A valve includes a housing defining a flow path having three ports. A door in the flow path selectably controls a flow through the flow path in response to a rotation of a lever. Three seal flanges, each define one of the three ports. The door has three selectable closed positions including a first port closed position, a second port closed position, and a third port closed position. A resilient seal is compressed between a sealing face of the door and each of the three seal flanges respectively in turn when the door is in each of the closed positions. The door has a first pivot axis and a second pivot axis parallel to and spaced from the first pivot axis. The door is alternatively rotatable about the first pivot axis and the second pivot axis to selectably close, each individually and separately in turn, the three ports.
