The present invention relates to a Valve for controlling pressurized air flow to an inflatable air cell, comprising:a housing (2) enclosing a valve chamber (4 and having an input opening (10) in fluid communication with a pressurized air supply passageway (14), and a venting opening (28) for venting off air to the ambient atmosphere,a moveable valve piston (40) biased towards a valve seat formed at the input opening (10) to block communication with the pressurized air supply passageway (14),an actuator (50) configured to, when activated, pull the valve piston (40) away from the valve seat to open the input opening (10), anda venting control mechanism (20, 50) configured to close the venting opening (28) in response to opening of the input opening (10) by activation of the actuator (50) and vice versa,characterized in that the venting control mechanism comprises a rolling diaphragm (20) which envelopes a top portion (42) of the valve piston (40) and which separates the valve chamber (4) from a space which is in fluid communication with the ambient atmosphere, and in that the vent opening (28) is formed as an opening through the rolling diaphragm (20) located such that, when the valve piston (40) is, via a central head portion (22) of the rolling diaphragm, in indirect abutment on the valve seat, the venting opening (28) at least partly lies in a convolution area (30) of the rolling diaphragm between the valve piston (40) and a surrounding wall (70) and is thus open to the space in fluid communication with the ambient atmosphere, whereas, when the valve piston (40) has been pulled away from the valve seat, the convolution area (30) has moved along the rolling diaphragm and the vent opening (28) has moved out of the area of the rolling diaphragm in fluid communication with the ambient atmosphere.
