Shut-off actuator with gas generation device
First Claim
1. A shut-off device comprising:
- a shut-off housing comprising;
an admission channel;
a free space; and
a hole section;
a shut-off organ supported within said shut-off housing in an adjustable manner relative to the admission channel between an open position and a closed position, the shut-off organ comprising;
a pressure end extending into the free space; and
a latching end opposite the pressure end, the latching end comprising a wedging section;
an actuating device at least for adjusting the shut-off organ from the open position into the closed position, the actuating device comprising a gas generation device capable of producing an adjustment pressure to adjust the shut-off organ in the direction of the closed position, wherein the gas generation device is arranged within the shut-off housing free space; and
wherein the shut-off organ latching end engages and is at least partially held in place by the shut-off housing hole section when the shut-off organ is in the closed position.

Abstract
A shut-off device, in particular for application in the extraction of natural gas and mineral oil, has a shut-off housing (3) comprising an admission channel (2) and in which a shut-off organ (4) is supported in an adjustable manner relative to the admission channel (2) between an open position (5) and a closed position (6), and has an actuating device (7) at least for adjusting the shut-off organ (4) from the open position (5) into the closed position (6). To improve such a shut-off device in that, especially in an emergency, fast adjustment of the shut-off organ to the closed position is possible in a constructively easy and economical manner, the actuating device comprises a gas generation device (8) for the production of an adjustment pressure for adjusting the shut-off organ (4) in the direction of the close position (6).
