An automatic angle stop assembly for a urinal or toilet may include an angle stop adjustment device and an angle stop. The automatic angle stop assembly may automatically control flow through the angle stop to a flush valve. The automatic angle stop assembly may include a motor and an adjustment screw. A method for closing the angle stop may include sensing a flow condition, automatically rotating a motor based on the flow condition, and closing the angle stop.

The present disclosure provides a valve diagnosis apparatus capable of being combined with an existing valve and of automatically diagnosing corrosion, a valve apparatus using this valve diagnosis apparatus, and a valve diagnosis method. A valve diagnosis apparatus of the present disclosure includes an ultrasonic transmitter that transmits ultrasound towards a valve element that opens and closes a valve to be diagnosed, an ultrasonic receiver that receives the ultrasound transmitted from the ultrasonic transmitter, a controller that drives the ultrasonic transmitter and processes a reception signal received by the ultrasonic receiver, and a memory that stores the reception signal. The controller detects corrosion of the valve element from the difference in intensity of the reception signal in the initial state of the valve and at the time of diagnosis.

A valve includes an actuation assembly including a drive device that generates a driving force, a needle shaft connected, at one end thereof, to the drive device to receive the driving force from the drive device and perform linear motion, a needle nut that is coupled to the drive device and that has an empty space through which the needle shaft passes, so as to guide the linear motion of the needle shaft, and a valve disc coupled to an opposite end of the needle shaft, a body is coupled with the actuation assembly and that has a valve opening inside, the valve opening being selectively opened or closed as the valve disc, which is inserted into the body in which water flows, performs linear motion, and a clip that fixes the body and the actuation assembly such that the body and the actuation assembly are not separated from each other.

A new system for negative pressure wound therapy is described. The system includes a patient tube set connecting the wound dressing to the suction container. The patient tube set provides separate channels for applying suction to the wound site and sensing the therapeutic pressure at the wound site. A restrictor valve may also be included in order to introduce a small air leak into the system to prevent occlusions in the patient tube set.

Disclosed are can taps for dispensing fluids from containers. The can tap has a housing with an inlet and an outlet, and a pin. The pin has a flow portion in fluidic communication with the inlet and the outlet of the housing. The pin may have a blunt depressor capable of operating a valve on the container. The flow portion of the pin allows fluid to flow between the housing and the pin. The can tap may have a gasket comprising a material having a hardness that prevents deformation of the container.

A valve device includes a valve, a driving device, and a transmission unit. The valve changes a circulation mode of refrigerant flowing through a circulation path of a refrigeration cycle system. The driving device drives the valve. The driving device includes a housing and an electric driving unit as a drive source. The transmission unit is arranged in a driving transmission path extending from the electric driving unit to the valve, and changes a speed of rotation generated by driving of the electric driving unit. The transmission unit is entirely or partially arranged in the housing that is partitioned from the circulation path in a liquid-tight manner.

A valve core assembly includes a transmission component and a valve core component. The valve core component includes a valve core body and a lower stop component, and the valve core body is substantially tubular. The lower stop component is provided in an inner chamber of the valve core body and is fixedly connected to the valve core body. The lower stop component includes a lower stop portion. An upper chamber is located above the lower stop portion, and a lower chamber is located below the lower stop portion. The lower stop component includes a first axial through hole communicating with the upper chamber and the lower chamber.

An electric valve includes a valve seat component, a valve body component, and a valve core component. The valve core component includes a sealing portion. The valve core component is arranged in a valve chamber of the electric valve, and the valve core component includes a valve core body. The valve core body is substantially tubular, the valve core body has an integral structure, and the valve core body includes an annular thin-walled portion to abut against the sealing portion of the valve seat component. The thickness of the annular thin-walled portion is M, and 0.3 mmM2.0 mm.

The flow path of a container valve communicates from a container attachment portion, to be attached to a fluid storage container, to an outlet, and is provided with a valve chamber, accommodating an open/close valve, in a middle part thereof. A portion of the flow path from an end of the container attachment portion to a bottom surface of the valve chamber is set as a primary flow path, and a portion of the flow path from an inner side surface of the valve chamber to an end of the outlet is set as a secondary flow path. In an outer circumferential portion of the bottom surface of the valve chamber, a discharge promotion groove is formed continuously with a portion corresponding to the lateral opening in a circumferential direction. A bottom surface of the secondary flow path is located below a bottom surface of the discharge promotion groove.
