Fault-accommodating flow scheduling valve
11230980 · 2022-01-25 · ·

A fault-accommodating flow scheduling valve has a first inlet, outlet, and orifice therebetween. The valve has a shuttle valve member on the orifice inlet side, a primary valve member on the orifice outlet side, a compression-loaded primary spring, and first and second compression-loaded balance springs. Below a threshold differential pressure, the primary valve member engages with the outlet-side sealing face to close the valve while the shuttle valve member is spaced from the inlet-side sealing face, and on failure of the primary spring, the primary valve member moves from the outlet-side sealing face but the shuttle valve member closes the valve. Above the threshold differential pressure, the primary valve member opens the valve while the shuttle valve member remains spaced, and on failure of the primary spring, the primary valve member moves further from the outlet-side sealing face but the shuttle valve member closes the valve.

Complex irrigation/suction flow path in a medical device

A suction/irrigation medical device valve system comprises a first valve plunger configured for insertion into a first valve plunger channel. The first valve plunger has a first latch member disposed at a distal end with a first sealing member and a first valve opening disposed proximally from the first latch member. The system also comprises a second valve plunger configured for insertion into a second valve plunger channel. The second valve plunger includes a second valve opening that is longer than the first valve opening. The system also comprises a valve body having the first and second valve plunger channels. The first and second valve plunger channels are configured to receive the first and second valve plungers, respectively.

CAPACITY CONTROL VALVE

A capacity control valve includes: valve housings provided with a discharge port, a suction port, and a control port; and a main valve configured to open and close a communication between the discharge port and the control port as a rod driven by a solenoid moves. The capacity control valve further includes: a pressure drive unit disposed in a suction fluid supply chamber, operated by a suction pressure Ps, and coupled to the main valve body so as to be movable together; and a CS valve having a CS valve seat and a CS valve body to open and close a communication between the control port and the suction port. The CS valve body is movable relative to the main valve body. Upon the movement of the rod 83 in a closed state of the main valve, the main valve body and the CS valve body move together.

Pressure-balanced valve
11168798 · 2021-11-09 · ·

There is provided a valve apparatus. The valve apparatus includes a body, a closure member, upstream and downstream compartments, a closure member passage, a first fluid pressure-receiving surface fraction and a second fluid pressure-receiving surface fraction. The body includes an inlet port, a first outlet port, and a second outlet port. The closure member is configured for movement between an open position and a closed position. In the open position, the first outlet port is open. In the closed position, the first outlet port is closed. While the fluid pressure within an upstream compartment is equal to the fluid pressure within a downstream compartment, the closure member is biased to the closed position.
