Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure is directed to a control valve assembly for use with a vehicle wheel assembly. The control valve assembly comprises; an inlet for receiving compressed air from a supply line (13); an outlet for supplying compressed air to a transfer line (19); and a control valve (25) for selectively placing the inlet in fluid communication with the outlet. The control valve assembly (507) is configured to be removably disposed in a wheel hub (509). The control valve assembly also comprises an annular cage (624) mounted around the outlet. The annular cage (624) supports a transfer line filter for filtering air moving between the control valve (25) and the transfer line (19). The cage (624) comprises a base ring (674) and a secondary ring (676). The transfer line filter extends intermediate the base (674) and secondary (676) rings. The base (674) and secondary (676) rings each comprise a radial foot (732) arranged to space the transfer line filter from the control valve (25) assembly to provide an annular cavity therebetween.
