Fluid micro-injection device and flow channel assembly
A flow channel assembly (200) of a fluid micro-injection device has a fluid seat (210), a nozzle mounting plate (240), a nozzle (220), a nozzle platen (250) and a fluid supply joint (230). The nozzle (220) is connected to the fluid seat (210) by the nozzle mounting plate (240). The nozzle platen (250) is connected with the nozzle mounting plate (240) to secure the nozzle (220). The fluid supply joint (230) and the fluid seat (210) are connected to control the fluid flowing to the nozzle (220).
Failsafe electric valve actuator
Electric valve actuator, comprising: a stem (41, 43) for moving a valve member between open and closed positions; a drive assembly for moving the stem comprising an electric motor (31); a biasing assembly (5) adapted to act on the stem to urge it toward a failsafe position; and a fail-safe shutdown system to allow the biasing assembly to urge the stem toward the failsafe position, comprising a first latching unit (7) mounted movable in translation in the housing and a second latching unit (8) mounted on the housing for latching engagement with the first unit, whereby the stem can be moved free from the action of the biasing assembly in the latched state of the first and second latching units; and the drive assembly and the stem are mounted integral in translation with the first unit (7), which is mounted integral in translation with the biasing assembly.
Valve with pressure differential seating
A valve for use in oil and gas production or similar applications includes a plug or other flow barrier disposed in a cavity of a hollow valve body with a metal-to-metal sealing surface that is not reliant on any rubberized or elastomeric material to effect a seal.
Shut-off valve, coking drum and method
This disclosure relates to a shut-off valve, in particular a pipe-bridge slide valve, for a coking drum for the production of coke, having at least one pipe socket which has a first end for connection to the coking drum and a second end on which a slider is arranged for opening and closing the coking drum, wherein the pipe socket has a supply connection for filling the coking drum with a medium and a diaphragm which is arranged between the supply connection and the first end of the pipe socket and can be moved into a filling position and into an emptying position, wherein, in the filling position, a diaphragm opening is arranged in the region of the central longitudinal axis of the pipe socket for introducing the medium centrally into the coking drum, and, in the emptying position, the diaphragm opening has a larger passage area than in the filling position.
Gate valve
In embodiments, a gate valve includes a valve body including a flow passage from a first opening to a second opening, and a gate channel having a first end intersecting the flow passage and a second end delineated by a third opening. A valve cover fits over the third opening. A cap fits over a valve cover opening. In embodiments, a valve cover includes a body with a second sealing surface protruding from a first sealing surface, both around an opening of the body. A cap has a third sealing surface to mate with the first sealing surface, and a fourth sealing surface congruent to the second sealing surface. In embodiments, a valve cover cap includes a body with a first sealing surface on an end of a wall. Pin flanges each have a pin hole having a pin hole axis oriented perpendicular to a center axis of the wall.
GATE VALVE, SUBSTRATE PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND METHOD OF OPERATING GATE VALVE
A gate valve provided in a boundary portion between two sections to block communication between the two sections, the gate valve includes a base, a first moving mechanism installed on the base and configured to move a first movement body along a first linear track, a second moving mechanism installed on the first movement body, and configured to operate at a timing different from the first moving mechanism and to move a second movement body along a second linear track orthogonal to the first linear track, and a valve body installed on the second movement body and configured to come into contact with a contact surface so as to perform sealing. One of the first linear track and the second linear track is parallel to a direction orthogonal to the contact surface.
LOADLOCK APPARATUS AND SUBSTRATE PROCESSING APPARATUS INCLUDING THE SAME
A loadlock apparatus includes a loadlock chamber including a first opening and a second opening separated in a vertical direction; a first slit valve including a first valve plate configured to move between a first open position where the first opening is open and a first closed position where the first opening is closed, the first open position being a position moved downward from the first closed position; and a second slit valve including a second valve plate configured to move between a second open position where the second opening is open and a second closed position where the second opening is closed, the second open position being a position moved upward from the second closed position.
Discrete step, maximum flow-rate-selectable valve
A discrete step, maximum flow-rate-selectable valve includes: (a) an entry tube with: (i) an exit with a single, off-center hole that lies on the circumference of a circle of radius “r” that is centered on the centerpoint of the exit, and (ii) an exterior surface having a portion with rotational symmetry, (b) a selector tube with: (i) an exit with a plurality of holes, each having a differing diameter and a center point that lies on the circumference of a circle of radius “r” which is centered on the centerpoint of the selector tube exit, and (ii) an interior surface configured to lie proximate said entry tube, exterior surface portion having rotational symmetry so as to assist in providing a water-tight seal between said tubes, and (c) a means to enable the selector tube to rotate in discrete steps around the entry tube.
HYDRAULIC VALVE WITH MANUAL OVERRIDE
A manual operator a hydraulic operator is connected to move a gate within a gate valve body between a valve open and a valve closed position. The manual operator is used to operate the gate valve when the hydraulic operator is not used. On the other hand, a handwheel for the manual operator can be removed when the hydraulic actuator is used to operate the gate valve.
Globe Valve
A globe valve, having a body through which a fluid circulation duct passes, the latter delimiting a fluid path with an inlet and an outlet, and a shutoff member housed inside a branch generally perpendicular to the body, this shutoff member being movable between a first end position, in which it shuts off the duct, and a second end position, in which it does not shut off the duct, wherein the duct has, on either side of the region of action of the shutoff member, a generally circular liquid circulation section, which is connected continuously, at least in the region of action of the shutoff member, to a section that is longer than it is wide, the body (2) not having an element that protrudes towards the inside of the duct.
