Abstract
A piping valve for conduits conveying pressurized viscous material, such as concrete, provides a means for introducing a wiper into the conduit for cleaning purposes. The piping valve has a reciprocally displaceable part with a transmission pipe and a pipe chamber containing the wiper. The reciprocally displaceable part may be moved between a first position in which it is aligned with the conduit and a second position in which it receives the wiper for passage through the conduit.
