Abstract:
The present invention relates to a check valve and, more particularly, to a check valve comprising a main disk and a separate auxiliary disk, the main disk making a rapid closing operation, and the auxiliary disk, which has an area smaller than that of the main disk, making a slow closing operation, thereby reducing the velocity of a reverse flow inside a conduit, right before the disks are finally closed, and preventing a slam (a characteristic phenomenon wherein, when the disks are closed with a bang, an instantaneous increase in pressure wave raises the possibility of piping fracture and causes noise and vibration) of the disks and water hammer.
