The type of rotary valve I am looking for is not for a musical instrument. The rotary valve I am interested in is used in the Petrochemical industry. I would imagine the concept is similar, but we need a more discriptive illustration showing the mechanics of the operation.

The diagram of a rotary valve is absolute horrendous and does not in any way lead to a better understanding of what it does, nor does it reveal anything about how it works. Perhaps someone in the know could improve or suggest a more appropriate diagram. Imacdo 19:55, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
