Abstract

A pinch valve having a clamping member (300) mounted between two side walls (110) of a valve housing, the side walls extending parallel to a hose guide axis and to a plunger guide axis. Each of the side walls has a step (112) extending parallel to the hose guide axis and recessing with respect to the advancing direction of the plunger. The clamping jaws (320) of the pinch valve, upon displacement of the clamping member (300), move over the steps (112) with their outer sides, which face away from the hose guide, bearing against the side walls (110).
