Provided are: a valve control device which is capable of reducing the difference between a set opening amount and the actual opening amount, when executing a partial valve stroke test; a valve control system; a method for calculating a valve control coefficient; and a valve control method. This shut-off valve control device is provided with a microcomputer for controlling the opening and closing of a solenoid valve which supplies air from an air supply source, to a cylinder of an air cylinder for controlling a valve shaft of a shut-off valve, and discharges said air. The microcomputer acquires a set opening amount of the shut-off valve. Furthermore, the microcomputer controls the solenoid valve to a value obtained by dividing the acquired set opening amount by a predetermined coefficient C.

A fluid supply system for a machine such as an internal combustion engine includes a shutoff valve having an electrical actuator that includes a solenoid subassembly, and a stabilizer for the electrical valve actuator. The stabilizer includes a fitting structured to couple the shutoff valve to adjacent hardware in the fluid supply system, and a strongarm extending between the fitting and the solenoid assembly and clamped to the solenoid subassembly. A vibration-damping reinforced grommet may be clamped between the solenoid subassembly and the clamp.

A method for inhibiting the formation of carbonyl compounds in a gas cylinder containing carbon monoxide wherein the gas cylinder is in fluid communication with a valve assembly wherein the valve assembly connects to a threaded opening in the gas cylinder by a threaded assembly by coating interior and exterior components of the valve assembly selected from the group consisting of an inlet port, an outlet port, a diaphragm and a lower spindle with an amorphous hydrogenated silicon compound. A valve assembly containing the coated interior and exterior components is also disclosed.

A flow direction restriction valve mechanism unit includes a pressure decreasing valve assembly that is located to freely advance or retract in a combination valve cassette attached to an in-outlet secondary side flow path formed on the side of an outlet with respect to an intermediate transmission member in a flow path, and retracts by a pressure of gas; a first coil spring urging the pressure decreasing valve assembly in a retracting direction; a check valve that is located to be freely advance or retract with respect to the pressure decreasing valve assembly, and retracts by a pressure of the gas; and a second coil spring urging the check valve in an advancing direction. A gas induction passage is formed in which the gas flows and acts on the pressure decreasing valve assembly such that the pressure decreasing valve assembly moves in the advancing direction.

An air injection apparatus is provided according to one embodiment of the present invention. The air injection apparatus includes a main body in which an air passage is formed, and an opening and closing part which is coupled to one end of the main body and in which an opening and closing protrusion having a predetermined length, protruding toward the air passage, and configured to open or close the air passage is formed on an inner surface thereof, wherein at least a part of the opening and closing protrusion may be inserted into the air passage to seal the air passage when the opening and closing part is moved in a first direction toward the main body.

A dispenser includes a housing, an inverted container disposed in the housing, a outlet nozzle, a pump, a first check valve, and a second check valve. The container holds a fluid. The pump is disposed between the container and the outlet nozzle. The pump includes a pump inlet in fluid communication with the container, a pump outlet in fluid communication with the outlet nozzle, and a pump chamber in fluid communication with the pump inlet and the pump outlet. The pump chamber is movable between an expanded position and a compressed position. The first check valve is disposed between the pump and the outlet nozzle, and the first check valve has a first cracking pressure. The second check valve is disposed between the first check valve and the outlet nozzle, and the second check valve has a second cracking pressure. The second cracking pressure of the second check valve is greater than the first cracking pressure of the first check valve.

A pneumatically operated gas valve mounted on a vessel containing pressurized gas. The gas valve includes a piston positioned in a cylinder with one closed end so that the piston seats against a gas outlet to close the gas valve. A control reservoir is formed in the cylinder between the piston and the closed end of the cylinder. Upon filling vessel, some of the pressurized gas enters the control reservoir to provide a control pressure behind the piston. Actuating the control mechanism vents the control reservoir, resulting in the gas valve opening rapidly to release the pressurized gas in the vessel through an exhaust port of the gas valve.

An assembly for a fire extinguisher system includes a fire extinguisher fitting that extends into a fire extinguisher container and a fill adapter. The fitting defines a fitting bore through which a connection portion of a pressure monitoring device at least partially extends and a fitting flange that is disposed about the fitting and is disposed parallel to a flange of the pressure monitoring device. The fill adapter includes an adapter housing and an adapter shaft. The adapter housing is arranged to be disposed about the pressure monitoring device. The adapter shaft that at least partially extends through the adapter housing. The adapter shaft is arranged to engage a monitoring housing of the pressure monitoring device.

A safety release bleeder valve serving as a plug includes a barrel having an exterior surface and an interior throughbore surface for matingly receiving a plug having a top end with exterior threads and an interior socket for receiving a driver tool for moving the plug between an open venting state and a closed non-venting state.

A valve (1) controls flow of methane in automotive systems and includes at least one sealing group (98) having a proximal sealing ring (99a), in direct contact with the gas in rest conditions. A distal sealing ring (99b) is made of different materials. A check valve device (120) is applicable to the valve (1) and includes an entrance sealing group (130) provided with a proximal sealing ring (130a) and a distal sealing ring (130b) made of different materials.
