A vacuum seal valve is applied to a lid for the air-tight closing of a container for the packaging of products, particularly food products, including a closing body arranged for sealing a hole for evacuating air from the container, from which at least one punching member stems that is adapted to pie
A vacuum seal valve is applied to a lid for the air-tight closing of a container for the packaging of products, particularly food products, including a closing body arranged for sealing a hole for evacuating air from the container, from which at least one punching member stems that is adapted to pierce the lid closing the container so as to form such evacuating hole. A reciprocating mechanical vacuum pump, with manual actuation, evacuates air from a container arranged for the vacuum packaging of products, for example food products, via application of the vacuum sealing valve. The pump has, at its base, a recess adapted to form a housing for retaining the valve, whereby the lowering movement of the plunger allows driving the valve in a lid of the container.

1. A vacuum sealing valve applied to a lid for the air-tight closing of a container for the packaging of products, comprising: a closing body sealing an air evacuating hole for evacuating air from the container,a punching member stemming from said closing body and formed integrally with said closing
1. A vacuum sealing valve applied to a lid for the air-tight closing of a container for the packaging of products, comprising: a closing body sealing an air evacuating hole for evacuating air from the container,a punching member stemming from said closing body and formed integrally with said closing body, said punching member having a stem and a widened punching head projecting transversely to the stem and terminating in a sharp tip piercing the lid closing the container to form said evacuating hole, said evacuating hole having dimensions substantially corresponding to said tip of said punching member;wherein the closing body comprising a deformable material shaped to form a frontal gasket and a ridge extending along a closed path around said punching member. 2. The valve according to claim 1, said punching head defining a spiked formation adapted to engage an edge of the evacuating hole in an assembled condition to prevent complete extraction of the valve from said evacuating hole. 3. The valve according to claim 1, wherein the closing body is provided with a perimeter coating made of a material having a high elastic deformation coefficient and a high pneumatic seal. 4. A vacuum pump for evacuating air from a container arranged for vacuum packaging of products, comprising: a plunger slidable with a reciprocating motion into a suction cylinder suitable to be coupled to the container at a base in correspondence to an air evacuating hole for evacuating air from the container, the air evacuating hole being closable by a vacuum sealing valve,wherein the base of the pump has a recess having a shape and size corresponding to the body of a vacuum sealing valve applied to a lid of the container, to form a housing for retaining the valve, wherein lowering of the plunger allows driving the valve in the lid of said container; the vacuum sealing valve including a closing body sealing the air evacuating hole, and a punching member stemming from and formed integrally with said closing body, said punching member having a sharp tip piercing the lid closing the container to form said evacuating hole, said evacuating hole having dimensions substantially corresponding to dimensions of said tip of said punching member. 5. The pump according to claim 4, wherein said recess is made at the base of the plunger. 6. The pump according to claim 4, wherein said recess is made at the base of the cylinder in a raised position with respect to a support formation of the pump on the lid, and attains a lowered position following the lowering movement of the plunger. 7. The pump according to claim 4, adapted to perform suction of air present within the container, and compression of the suctioned air and its subsequent release of the air to the external environment, comprising a resiliently deformable V-shaped sealing ring, arranged between an inner wall of the cylinder and an outer wall of the plunger, having an inner lip fixed to said outer wall of the plunger, and a flexible outer lip, adapted to take up an open position in contact with said inner wall of the cylinder in a suction step, and a contracted position, closer to the inner lip, which brings about the opening of a circumferential outflow aperture between the ring and the inner wall of the cylinder, in a discharge step. 8. The pump according to claim 4, wherein the plunger has a hollow cylindrical body, whose inner cavity forms a space for storing a stock of valves. 9. The pump according to claim 4, wherein the closing body comprising a deformable material shaped to form a frontal gasket and a ridge extending along a closed path around said punching member. 10. The pump according to claim 4, said punching member having a stem and a widened punching head projecting transversely to the stem and terminating in the sharp tip.
