One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for interrupting fluid flow when experiencing fuel leaking conditions, such as an out of specification connection between the fuel source and a device utilizing the fluid. A distal end of a valve body has interfaces with at least a portion of a connection to a fluid supply; and a proximal end interfaces with at least a portion of a fuel intake. An internal passage runs between the proximal end and distal ends of. A displacement member in the internal passage comprises a distal portion that extends out of the valve to engage a valve to the fuel supply. A retention cap selectably engaged with the valve body can comprise a material that deforms under force at a predetermined temperature, resulting in a release of the displacement member under a biasing force form a biasing component between the cap and displacement member.

A self-sealing safety valve (10) for a container of pressurised fluid (12) comprises a substantially solid body (14) and attachment means (24) for connecting to a dispensing valve. The self-sealing safety valve includes a substantially central bore (16) extending through both the attachment means and the solid body, and the bore connects an inlet (20) to an outlet (18). The bore comprises at least three parts each of a different diameter: a first part (16a) immediately adjacent the outlet has a first diameter; a second part (16b) located immediately adjacent the first part has a second diameter that is wider diameter than the first diameter; and a third (16c) part located immediately adjacent the second part has a third diameter that is wider than the second diameter. The second part of the bore houses a first biasing means (30). The third part of the bore houses a sealing ball (28) and a second biasing means (38), and the sealing ball is located between the first and second biasing means. The diameter of the sealing ball is greater than the first diameter but smaller than the second diameter and is capable of sealing the second part of the bore. Under normal flow conditions of fluid through the bore, the first biasing means is configured to bias the sealing ball away from the second part of the bore. Under conditions of high pressure fluid flow through the bore, the sealing ball is forced towards a junction (21) between the second and third parts of the bore, against the first biasing means, sealing the outlet.

A pipe is provided for transporting a viscous fluid, including a pressure relief valve provided with a sealing element which separates the inside of the pipe from a discharge line and is designed to release the discharge line in the event of predetermined excess pressure. A surface of the sealing element, facing a Miler chamber of the pipe, is associated with the pipe in such a manner that the surface is flown around by a flow of the viscous fluid circulating through the pipe when in operation, and the sealing element is fixed in the closed position by a rod, the rod being displaced by the predetermined excess pressure such that the thus connected sealing element releases the discharge pipe.

The invention relates to an activation device for an electric battery unit, in particular, for a battery part of a torpedo. The invention also relates to a battery unit with activation devices of this type. An activation device incorporates an operating supply connection, to which an operating supply reservoir can be connected. A movably arranged cutting element can be pneumatically actuated via a pneumatic connection of the activation device by means of an actuation element, wherein a sealing element arranged in the path of travel of the cutting element controls the operating supply connection. In order to guarantee a safe storage, ready for operation, and a safe activation of a battery unit, it is provided in accordance with the invention that the activation device incorporates a pneumatic outlet, which can be fluidically connected to the pneumatic connection, depending on the position of the actuation element.

A chemical injection valve can include a valve stem, flow between sections of a flow passage being prevented and permitted in respective closed and open positions of the valve stem, a resilient primary seal that prevents flow through an annular gap surrounding the valve stem in the closed position, and a bypass passage in communication with the annular gap and a flow passage section, and in communication with another flow passage section in the open position. A chemical injection system can include a chemical treatment pumped through a chemical injection valve and into an interior of a tubular string, and the chemical injection valve including a valve stem and a bypass passage extending between a flow passage section and an annulus surrounding the valve stem, the annulus being positioned longitudinally between a resilient primary seal and a metal secondary seal.

The invention is a gas vent valve (10) for a gas pressure regulator (1), comprising: a tubular body (11) developed between two opposite openings (11a, 11b); a shutter body (12) biased towards a position in which a first opening (11a) of the tubular body (11) is closed and movable from the closed position towards an open position for opening the first opening (11a) due to the effect of a pressure acting from the outside of the tubular body (11) through the first opening (11a); constraining means (13) configured so as to prevent the movement of the shutter body (12) from the closed position towards the open position when the ambient temperature exceeds a predefined value.

A valve assembly includes an inlet and an outlet, which open into a working chamber of the valve assembly, and an actuator. In a non-actuated state of the actuator, a flow passage between the inlet and the outlet is blocked. The actuator is optionally a shape-memory actuator that can be actuated one time or comprises a shape-memory actuator, which suddenly changes its external shape upon reaching a conversion temperature, which is dependent on the alloy composition thereof, and which can be generated by a controllable electrical heating device of the valve assembly. The actuator irreversibly destroys a pipe element separating the inlet from the outlet in the working chamber upon actuation, whereby the inlet and the outlet are connected to one another with respect to flow via the working chamber.
