A relief valve assembly includes a relief valve, a hollow shell disposed on the relief valve so as to form a relieving chamber, and a cap mounted to the hollow shell and closing off a distal end of the relief valve to an external environment. The hollow shell has a distal aperture and a proximal aperture, and the distal end of the relief valve is inserted into the hollow shell through the proximal aperture and protrudes through the distal aperture. The relief valve includes a relief port forming a fluid flow path between a valve chamber of the relief valve and the relieving chamber, and the hollow shell extends past the relief port along a longitudinal axis of the relief valve. The relief valve includes a slide member configured to move in response to an over-pressure condition, and a fluid vents from the valve chamber to the relieving chamber through the relief port.

1. A relief valve assembly, comprising: a relief valve including a valve body having a valve chamber and a slide member configured to move inside the valve chamber;a hollow shell disposed to an outer surface of the valve body in order to form a relieving chamber between the relief valve and the hollow shell, wherein the hollow shell has a distal aperture and a proximal aperture, and a distal end of the valve body is inserted into the hollow shell through the proximal aperture and protrudes through the distal aperture; anda cap mounted to the hollow shell and configured to close off the distal end of the valve body to an external environment;wherein the relief valve includes at least one relief port forming a fluid flow path between the valve chamber and the relieving chamber, the hollow shell extends past the at least one relief port along a longitudinal axis of the valve body, and the slide member moves in response to an over-pressure condition, thereby allowing a fluid to vent from the valve chamber to the relieving chamber through the at least one relief port;wherein the hollow shell includes a wide portion, a narrow portion, and a connecting portion connecting the wide portion and the narrow portion; andwherein the connecting portion includes a ring-shaped depression with a ring-shaped sealing member disposed therein. 2. The relief valve assembly of claim 1, wherein the hollow shell has an inner surface juxtaposed opposite to the at least one relief port in order to deflect the fluid relieving from the at least one relief port. 3. The relief valve assembly of claim 1, wherein the cap includes a flange portion disposed on the connecting portion. 4. The relief valve assembly of claim 1, wherein the relief valve includes a distal portion having a first diameter and a proximal portion having a second diameter larger than the first diameter, and the narrow portion is mounted to the distal portion. 5. The relief valve assembly of claim 4, wherein the narrow portion includes at least one screw hole configured to engage with a screw to fasten the hollow shell on the distal portion. 6. The relief valve assembly of claim 1, wherein the relief valve includes a distal portion having a first diameter and a proximal portion having a second diameter larger than the first diameter, and the at least one relief port is disposed in the proximal portion. 7. The relief valve assembly of claim 1, wherein the relief valve includes an elastic member disposed over the slide member. 8. The relief valve assembly of claim 7, wherein the relief valve includes an adjusting bolt having a plurality of first screws disposed over the elastic member, and an inner surface of the valve body has a plurality of second screws configured to engage with the plurality of first screws. 9. A relief valve assembly, comprising: a relief valve including a valve body having a valve chamber and a slide member disposed inside the valve chamber; anda shielding hat disposed to an outer surface of the valve body so as to form a relieving chamber between the relief valve and the shielding hat;wherein the valve body includes at least one relief port forming a first flow path and at least one vent port forming a second flow path between the valve chamber and the relieving chamber, the shielding hat extends past the at least one relief port and the at least one vent port along a longitudinal axis of the valve body, and the slide member is configured to move between the at least one relief port and the at least one vent port in response to an over-pressure condition, thereby allowing a first fluid to vent from the valve chamber to the relieving chamber through the at least one relief port below the slide member and a second fluid to vent from the valve chamber to the relieving chamber through the at least one vent port above the slide member;wherein the shielding hat includes a wide portion, a narrow portion, and a connecting portion connecting the wide portion and the narrow portion;wherein the shielding hat comprises a hollow shell disposed to an outer surface of the valve body and a cap mounted to the hollow shell, and the cap is configured to close off the distal end of the valve body to an external environment; andwherein the connecting portion includes a ring-shaped depression with a ring-shaped sealing member disposed in the ring-shaped depression, and the cap includes a flange portion disposed on the connecting portion. 10. The relief valve assembly of claim 9, wherein the shielding hat has an inner surface juxtaposed opposite to the at least one relief port in order to deflect the first fluid relieving from the at least one relief port. 11. The relief valve assembly of claim, 9 wherein the relief valve includes a distal portion having a first diameter and a proximal portion having a second diameter larger than the first diameter, and the narrow portion is mounted to the distal portion. 12. The relief valve assembly of claim 11, wherein the narrow portion includes at least one screw hole configured to engage with a screw to fasten the shielding hat on the distal portion. 13. The relief valve assembly of claim 9, wherein the relief valve includes a distal portion having a first diameter and a proximal portion having a second diameter larger than the first diameter, the at least one relief port is disposed in the proximal portion, and the at least one vent port is disposed in the distal portion. 14. The relief valve assembly of claim 13, further comprising a supporting member disposed on an outer surface of the distal portion, the shielding hat is disposed on the supporting member, and the supporting member includes at least one slot exposing the at least one vent port. 15. The relief valve assembly of claim 10, wherein the relief valve includes an elastic member disposed over the slide member. 16. The relief valve assembly of claim 15, wherein the relief valve includes an adjusting bolt having a plurality of first screws disposed over the elastic member, and an inner surface of the valve body has a plurality of second screws configured to engage with the plurality of first screws. 17. The relief valve assembly of claim 10, wherein the relieving chamber has a first end and a second end, the first end is closer to the at least one vent port than to the at least one relief port, the second end is closer to the at least one relief port than to the at least one vent port such that the second fluid venting from the at least one vent port pushes the first fluid venting from the at least one relief port in a direction from the first end to the second end.
