Abstract of the Disclosure
A seal assembly for sealing a valve needle
having a generally circular cross section transverse to
its longitudinal axis. The needle is situated inside a
valve assembly including a housing having a longitudinal
axis. The needle controls flow of a fluid from a fluid
supply line to a fluid outlet passage. The seal
assembly comprises a seal positioner including a
cylindrical body portion surrounding the needle and
having a first end, a second end, and an inner side wall
having a cross section larger than the cross section of
the needle to define a space between the inner side wall
and the needle. The seal positioner also includes a
partition for coupling the body portion to the needle to
align the body portion concentrically with the needle
and to maintain the concentric alignment upon
misalignment of the longitudinal axis of the needle and
the longitudinal axis of the valve assembly. The
partition provides first and second sealing regions
spaced longitudinally along the needle. A first seal in
the first sealing region extends perimetrally around the
needle and contacts a first portion of it. A second
seal in the second sealing region extends perimetrally
around the needle and contacts a second portion of it.
