Claim 14

A control valve as defined in claim 1 wherein said valve seat has a diameter, said second bore has an axial length of about 0,75-1,5 times the diameter of said valve seat.

Claim 15

A control valve as defined in claim 1 wherein said area of minimum cross section has a diameter and said valve seat has a diameter, said diameter of said cross section being approximately 0,7-0,9 times said diameter of said valve seat.

Claim 16

A control valve as defined in claim 1, and further comprising a valve stem connected to said valve needle in axial direction and a plurality of baffle plates extending in axial direction about the circumference of said valve stem for guiding and directing a fluid flow.

Claim 17

A control valve as defined in claim 1 wherein said valve box has an inner wall, and further comprising a plurality of baffle plates extending in axial direction from said inner wall of said valve box toward its interior.

Claim 18

A control valve, especially for high-pressure dust laden gas; comprising: a tubular valve box connected between an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe through which the gas flows, said valve box defining an axis and having an interior; a valve seat accommodated in said interior; and a valve needle extending within said interior and closing against said valve seat in flow direction of the gas, said interior of said valve box being subdivided in sections and including in flow direction of the gas a cylindrical bore, a first bore tapering towards said valve seat from said cylindrical bore, a second bore tapering from said valve seat towards an area of minimum cross section and a third bore extending in direction of said axis and expanding from said area of minimum cross section, said second bore having a taper angle smaller than the taper angle of said first bore.

Claim 19

A control valve, especially for high-pressure dust laden gas; comprising: a tubular valve box connected between an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe through which the gas flows, said valve box defining an axis and having an interior; a valve seat accommodated in said interior; and a valve needle extending within said interior and closing against said valve seat in flow direction of the gas, said interior of said valve box being subdivided in sections and including in flow direction of the gas a cylindrical bore, a first bore tapering towards said valve seat from said cylindrical bore, a second bore tapering from said valve seat towards an area of minimum cross section and a third bore extending in direction of said axis and expanding from said area of minimum cross section, said second bore having a taper angle smaller than the taper angle of said first bore.

Claim 20

A control valve, especially for high-pressure dust laden gas; comprising: a tubular valve box connected between an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe through which the gas flows, said valve box defining an axis and having an interior; a valve seat accommodated in said interior; and a valve needle extending within said interior and closing against said valve seat counter to the flow direction of the gas, said interior of said valve box being subdivided in sections and including in flow direction of the gas a cylindrical bore, a first bore tapering towards an area of minimum cross section from said cylindrical bore, a second bore expanding conically towards said valve seat from said area of minimum cross section and a third bore expanding from said valve seat in flow direction of the gas, said third bore having a cone angle exceeding the cone angle of said second bore.

Claim 21

A control valve, especially for high-pressure dust laden gas; comprising: a tubular valve box connected between an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe through which the gas flows, said valve box defining an axis and having an interior; a valve seat accommodated in said interior; and a valve needle extending within said interior and closing against said valve seat counter to the flow direction of the gas, said interior of said valve box being subdivided in sections and including in flow direction of the gas a cylindrical bore, a first bore tapering towards an area of minimum cross section from said cylindrical bore, a second bore expanding conically towards said valve seat from said area of minimum cross section and a third bore expanding from said valve seat in flow direction of the gas, said third bore having a cone angle exceeding the cone angle of said second bore.
