A new and innovative high-pressure priming valve is provided for use in high-pressure fluid systems that require a high level of fluid purity. The priming valve includes at least three ports, some of which are angled. The priming valve also includes a needle that variably blocks and unblocks a pathway to one of the ports between normal operation and a priming operation, respectively. The priming valve includes a sealing insert positioned below a stack of washers that maintain the needle's alignment in response to high fluid pressures exerted on the needle. The sealing insert helps prevent fluid from contacting the stack of washers, which helps prevent biological growth within the valve. The angled ports help facilitate priming valve drainage to further help prevent biological growth. By helping prevent biological growth, the sealing insert helps prevent fluid contamination and enables the priming valve to be utilized for high-purity fluid applications.

A sleeve valve includes an inlet port and an outlet port. A sleeve is movable to close flow from the inlet port to the outlet port. The sleeve valve has a sleeve biased to an open position at which it allows flow from the inlet port to the outlet port by a spring. Pressure in a pressure chamber urges the sleeve to a closed position at which it blocks flow from the inlet port to the outlet port. A line pressure conduit communicates the fluid chamber into the pressure chamber. Pressurized air is supplied to the pressure chamber through a selectively closed valve. The selectively closed valve is opened to allow the flow of high pressure air from a pressure source into the pressure chamber to move the sleeve to a closed position. A bleed air system for a gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

A valve assembly for an anti-ice system of an aircraft. The valve assembly comprises: a valve body; a first piston; and a regulating piston. The valve body defines a valve inlet, a valve outlet, a fluid passage between the valve inlet and the valve outlet, and a core portion defining a first chamber by cooperation with the first piston and a regulating chamber by cooperation with the regulating piston. The first piston is moveable between a first position and a second position, and the regulating piston is movable between a first position and a second position. The first piston overlaps the regulating piston when the first piston is its first position and the regulating piston is in its second position.

A coaxial liquid pressure regulator includes a housing having an inlet portion and an outlet portion, a substantially tubular valve member slidingly accommodated inside the housing and having a longitudinal axial passage and an upstream end with an inlet edge for the liquid, a valve body fixed inside the inlet portion and defining a seat that interacts with the inlet edge of the valve member and forms therewith a port having a variable width. The inlet portion includes an inlet fitting and a collection chamber directly downstream from the inlet fitting and the valve body includes a cantilever element transversely extending from the inner wall of the collection chamber. First and second deflection elements are arranged between the inlet fitting and the inlet edge, which facilitate flow conveyance toward the port and the longitudinal passage of the valve member.

A control valve that includes a split valve body. The split valve body includes a first body portion, a second body portion, a flow path, an inlet port, and an outlet port. The flow path passes through the first body portion and the second body portion. The first body portion is coupled to the second body portion. The control valve also includes a valve seat. The valve seat is disposed between the first body portion and the second body portion. The control valve also includes a valve plug. The valve plug is movable relative to the valve seat to control fluid flow through the control valve.

A valve assembly includes a housing, an actuator, a plunger, a cover, a valve body, and a manual override unit. The actuator is received within the housing and is disposed between a first annular wall and a second annular wall. The plunger is movably disposed within a plunger cavity that is defined by the base and the second annular wall. The cover is disposed on the housing. The valve body is connected to the housing. The valve body has an end wall that defines an outlet port, an annular wall that axially extends from the end wall and defines an inlet port, and a flange that extends from the end wall and engages the cover. The manual override unit is operatively connected to the plunger.

A motor-operated valve includes a base portion which is provided at one end of a stator, a linear-motion shaft which is screwed into a rotor and which is supported by the base portion such that the linear-motion shaft can be moved linearly and cannot be rotated, and a valve member which is provided in the linear-motion shaft and which opens and closes the valve port. A first contacting portion on the rotor and a second contacting portion on the stator or an intermediate member disposed between the rotor and the stator, the first and the second contacting portions and being provided in each of the intermediate member or the stator and the rotor, and contacting with each other in the rotation axis direction of the rotor are biased by a rotor biasing means such that they are pressed onto each other.
