A pressure control valve assembly includes a valve housing having a spring loaded, resilient valve element with reversely curved conical surfaces thereon one of which is seated on a fixed, annular pressure relief seat by a first spring element and the other of which is seated against a spring biased ball check valve that controls flow through a central opening in the valve element defining a vacuum relief path.

A pressure vacuum relief gas cap including a closure for sealing between a first source of pressure and a second source of pressure, a valve housing on said closure having a bore therethrough, wall means in said housing including a fixed valve seat forming an opening between said first and second sources of pressure, a seal element having an apex and a skirt of conical configuration, means including a movable carrier connected to said apex and a compression spring located coaxially of said seal element and against said carrier for supporting said skirt coaxially of said opening for engagement with said fixed valve seat to seal said opening against flow therethrough, said compression spring being responsive to a predetermined pressure differential between said first and second sources of pressure to cause said skirt to open to produce an annular open flow area between said fixed valve seat and said skirt, said compression spring being responsive to a reversal of pressure differential between said first and second pressure sources to close said skirt against said fixed valve seat to wipe the surface of said skirt, and relief valve means to open communication between said first and second sources of pressure when vacuum occurs in said second source, said seal element including a vacuum opening therethrough and further including a reversely bent segment forming a conical vacuum seal surface, said relief valve means including a ball check valve sealing said vacuum seal surface to control flow through said vacuum opening in response to vacuum in said second source.
