A compact fluid pressure regulation valve includes a valve body, the valve body having a pair of passageways, one passageway being a fluid pressure regulating passageway and the other passageway being a high pressure fluid supplying passageway. The fluid supplying passageway extends substantially perpendicular to the pressure regulating passageway and has a downstream end which opens to an upstream portion of the pressure regulating passageway. The fluid supplying passageway has on and off modes for supplying high pressure fluid to the pressure regulating passageway. A device is provided for activating the fluid supplying passageway from an off mode to an on mode. Further, a device is provided within the pressure regulating passageway for utilizing pressure within this passageway as a back pressure to regulate the pressure of the fluid flowing therethrough. With this arrangement a very compact fluid pressure regulation valve is provided.

A compact fluid pressure regulation valve comprising: a valve body; the valve body having a pair of passageways, one passageway being a fluid pressure regulating passageway and the other passageway being a high pressure fluid supplying passageway; the fluid supplying passageway extending substantially perpendicular to the pressure regulating passageway and having a downstream end which opens into an upstream portion of the pressure regulating passageway; the fluid supplying passageway having on and off modes for supplying high pressure fluid to the pressure regulating passageway; means for activating the fluid supplying passageway from an off mode to an on mode; means within the pressure regulating passageway for utilizing the pressure therein as a back pressure to regulate the pressure of the fluid flowing therethrough; the valve body having a low pressure fluid outlet passageway which has an upstream portion which is connected to a downstream end portion of the pressure regulating passageway and a downstream portion which exits the valve body; the upstream portion of the outlet passageway extending substantially at an acute angle to the pressure regulating passageway back toward the fluid supplying passageway in substantially the same plane as the pressure regulating and fluid supplying passageways; the downstream portion of the outlet passageway extending substantially perpendicular to said plane; the valve body having a high pressure fluid inlet passageway which communicates with the fluid supplying passageway for delivering high pressure fluid thereto; the inlet passageway extending substantially perpendicular to the fluid supplying passageway and substantially parallel to the downstream portion of the outlet passageway; a valve seat in the upstream portion of the pressure regulating passageway for delivering the fluid; a hollow piston and hollow piston rod mounted in the pressure regulating passageway downstream from the valve seat, the piston rod being open to fluid delivered at the valve seat and having a valve head at its upstream end for cooperating with the valve seat to restrict the flow depending upon the amount of said back pressure; a plug threaded into the upstream end of the pressure regulating passageway; said plug forming said valve seat at its downstream end and having an interior passageway which communicates the fluid supplying passageway with the valve seat; and the upstream end of the plug being exposed exterior the valve body for threading the plug inwardly or outwardly within the pressure regulating passageway so as to set the spacing between the valve seat and said valve head.
