Abstract
A safety valve designed for relieving pressure in a mine support jack. A washer and check valve are positioned in a counterbore located on the front surface of a resilient gasket member. A leg extends from the rear surface of the resilient gasket and extends through a rear chamber to support the check valve in a position sealing the outlet port. The rear chamber is filled with pressurized gas to form a gas cushion. The end of the leg is positioned to seal an inflation orifice.
