1. A valve for controlling the flow of cryogenic fluid comprising:

  • a valve body;

    a sealing member pivotably mounted within the valve body;

    an actuator mechanism arranged and disposed to pivot the sealing member from a closed position to an open position to allow flow of fluid through the valve body, the sealing member providing a seal against a portion of said valve body to substantially prevent flow of fluid through the valve in the closed position; and

    a linkage connecting the sealing member and the actuator mechanism, the linkage being capable of translating the direction of a force from the actuator mechanism to a direction suitable for pivoting the sealing member toward one of an open position and a closed position.
