Fluid valve apparatus

A valve having a flow trim assembly that can be quickly and efficiently removed and repaired or replaced. A body section having a central through bore that defines an inlet, an inner chamber or space, and two selectable outlets. Further the selectable outlets can direct flow in either a 90 degree “angle” orientation or at straight “in-line” orientation. An actuator stem extends into the inner chamber. A first (movable) trim member is attached to the rotator, and can be selectively rotated relative to a second (fixed) trim member. The first and second trim members cooperate to adjust flow opening through the valve. A valve bonnet that allows direct coupling of an actuator to the valve.

SYSTEM FOR SPACING AND FASTENING TUBULAR STRUCTURES

A tube spacing and fastening system for a gas turbine engine includes a plurality of tubular structures, a wear sleeve, a spacer element, and a fastening element. The plurality of tubular structures provides a fluid flow to a component of the gas turbine engine. The wear sleeve is located around each of the plurality of tubular structures. The spacer element receives the plurality of tubular structures. The fastening element extends around the wear sleeves and is configured to secure the plurality of tubular structures to the spacer element. An interference between the fastening element and wear sleeves is configured to allow the fastening element to slide with respect to the wear sleeves and to provide a damping effect under gas turbine engine vibrations and operating conditions. A method of damping vibrations in the plurality of tubular structures includes allowing the fastening element to slide with respect to the wear sleeve.

CONNECTOR COVER AND METHODS
20230060911 · 2023-03-02 ·

A removable cover to protect a connector between two conduits includes a single body having a wall surrounding an interior volume. The body has a neck sized to grip a portion of a first of the conduits. The body has a size-adjustable section to permit the body to be shortened or lengthened. The body has a casing section. The casing section protects a coupling connecting together the two conduits.

HOSE
20230072772 · 2023-03-09 · ·

A hose includes a tubular section having an outer tube and an inner tube. The inner tube forms a liner for the outer tube. Apart from being connected by connecting means near both ends of the tubular section, the inner tube is unconnected to said outer tube.

SANITIZING POUCH FOR ELECTRONICS
20220316641 · 2022-10-06 ·

The present invention is an elastic (mechanically stretchable), sanitizing pouch configured to receive and hold an Electronic Device of a predetermined configuration. The elasticity of the fabric used maximizes surface contact with the Electronic Device and the closeness of the fabric of the invention with the outside surfaces of the Electronic Device. A liftable and removable cover flap on the front of the invention is used to hold and access the inside of the invention. The back of the invention includes at least one pocket. The invention further includes a pull tab to help lift an Electronic Device out of the invention. While inside the invention, the silver ions are released in the fabric and inhibit the colonization of bacteria, viruses and fungus on the Electronic Device.
