Fluid control valves including single-opening, binary fluid control valves that are initially closed and can be opened one time only to allow a fluid transfer between two spaces separated by a fluid impermeable barrier. Applications of valves of this type include inflatable devices, including but not limited to medical device balloons, in particular gastric balloons for weight loss.

An industrial gas spring with a pressure chamber in a casing with an end wall, a piston rod received at least in part in the casing for reciprocation between extended and retracted positions and a pressure relief assembly carried by the end wall. The pressure relief assembly may have a membrane communicating with the pressure chamber and a plunger configured to breach the membrane when engaged and moved by the piston rod when it overtravels its design intended retracted position.

A safety relief valve for a high-pressure hydrogen cylinder is provided therein with a compression spring and an adjusting nut. The adjusting nut can move up and down to adjust the pressure of the compression spring to compress a sealing plug, so as to adjust the pressure in the hydrogen cylinder to reach an upper limit of pressure relief, which is convenient. Meanwhile, the safety relief valve is provided therein with a fusible seal. When the temperature is lower than a melting point, the fusible seal solidifies, and the sealing plug keeps a gas outlet sealed to prevent hydrogen leakage. When the temperature is higher than the melting point, the fusible seal melts. When the pressure in the hydrogen cylinder is higher than the set upper limit, the sealing plug is forced to open, and the hydrogen flows from an exhaust hole to a hydrogen collection tube.

An automatic shutoff valve for breakaway wet barrel fire hydrant is disclosed. In general, one aspect disclosed features an apparatus comprising: a valve housing comprising a valve body, a flange, and a valve seat; a valve pedal configured to engage the valve seat and prevent fluid flow through the valve seat in a closed position, and to permit fluid flow through the valve seat in an open position; a lockout tab disposed within the valve body, wherein the lockout tab maintains the valve pedal in the open position; a lockout bar disposed distally from the valve body; and an activation rod mechanically coupled to the lockout bar and configured to keep the valve pedal engaged with the lockout tab.
