Valve y'ikinyugunyuguyerekeza ku bwoko bwa valve ifite igice cyo gufunga (disiki cyangwa ikinyugunyugu) ari disiki, izenguruka impande z'umuyoboro wa valve kugira ngo ifunguke kandi ifunge. Ikoreshwa cyane cyane mu gukata no gufunga umuyoboro.
Igice cy'ifungura n'ifunga rya valve y'ikinyugunyugu ni igice cy'ikinyugunyugu gifite ishusho ya disiki, kizenguruka ku murongo wacyo mu gice cy'ifunga kugira ngo kigere ku ntego yo gufungura no gufunga cyangwa guhindura. Valve y'ikinyugunyugu ubusanzwe iba iri munsi ya santimetero 90 kuva ifunguye neza kugeza ifunze neza,
Valve y'ikinyugunyugu n'igiti cy'ikinyugunyugu nta bushobozi bifite bwo kwifunga. Kugira ngo isahani y'ikinyugunyugu ishyirweho, hagomba gushyirwaho agakoresho ko kugabanya inzoka ku gice cy'ikinyugunyugu. Gukoresha agakoresho ko kugabanya inzoka ntibishobora gusa gutuma isahani y'ikinyugunyugu yifunga ubwayo no guhagarika isahani y'ikinyugunyugu aho ari ho hose, ahubwo binanongerera imikorere ya valve.
Valve y'ibinyugunyugu ikoreshwa mu nganda irangwa no kudashyuha cyane, imbaraga nyinshi zikoreshwa, umurambararo munini, kandi igice cy'imvange gikozwe mu cyuma cya karuboni.
Impeta yo gufunga ya plaque ya valve ikoresha impeta y'icyuma aho gukoresha plaque ya rubber. Valve nini y'ibinyugunyugu ikozwe mu byuma bisudira plaque, kandi ikoreshwa cyane cyane mu miyoboro y'amazi n'imiyoboro ya gazi ifite ubushyuhe bwinshi.
Gushyiraho no kubungabunga valve y'ikinyugunyugu bigomba kwitabwaho ku bintu bikurikira: Mu gihe cyo kuyishyiraho, disiki ya valve igomba guhagarara mu mwanya ufunze. Aho ifungurirwa hagomba kugenwa hakurikijwe inguni y'uruziga rw'ikinyugunyugu.
Ku mavali y'ibinyugunyugu afite vali y'inyuma, vali y'inyuma igomba gufungurwa mbere yo gufungura
Gushyiraho bigomba gukorwa hakurikijwe amabwiriza y'uwabikoze, kandi valve nini y'ibinyugunyugu igomba gushyirwaho ishingiro rikomeye.
Ibyiza bya valve z'ibinyugunyugu ni ibi bikurikira: gufungura no gufunga byoroshye kandi byihuse, kugabanya igihe cyo gukora, kudakora amazi menshi, kandi bishobora gukoreshwa kenshi.
Imiterere yoroshye, ingano nto n'uburemere bworoheje.
Ibyondo bishobora gutwarwa, amazi make cyane ku munwa w'umuyoboro.
Mu gihe cy'umuvuduko muke, gufunga neza bishobora kugerwaho.
Imikorere myiza yo gukosora.
Ingaruka mbi za valve z'ibinyugunyugu ni izi zikurikira: urwego rw'umuvuduko w'imikorere n'ubushyuhe bw'imikorere ni bike.
Uburibwe burakabije.
Utuzu tw'ikinyugunyuguishobora kugabanywamo ubwoko bwa plate ya offset, ubwoko bwa plate ihagaze, ubwoko bwa plate ipfundikiye n'ubwoko bwa lever hakurikijwe imiterere. Dukurikije imiterere ya plate, ishobora kugabanywamo ubwoko bubiri: ubwoko bufunze neza n'ubwoko bufunze cyane. Ubwoko bwa plate yoroshye muri rusange bukoresha ring seal ya rubber, naho ubwoko bwa hard seal bukoresha ring seal ya metal.
Dukurikije ubwoko bw'ihuza, ishobora kugabanywamo ihuriro ry'ingufu n'ihuza rya wafer; dukurikije uburyo bwo kohereza, ishobora kugabanywamo intoki, ihuza ibikoresho, ihuza umwuka, ihuza amazi n'amashanyarazi.
