A valve assembly (10) for large scale irrigation including a valve body (20) and a valve head (40). The valve head is adapted to reciprocally travel along a longitudinal axis, supported by a longitudinally aligned shaft (60) inside the valve body. The valve head includes a wall (41) terminating in a peripheral sealing contact surface (42), the wall extending inwardly from the peripheral contacting surface.

A valve body and a control valve including such a valve body, the valve body including an inlet, an outlet, a valve port defined therebetween, and a plurality of discrete flow channels extending between the inlet and the valve port to distribute fluid flow to the valve port in a manner that equalizes the velocity of fluid at the perimeter of the valve port. The plurality of discrete flow channels includes (i) one or more first flow channels arranged to direct a first amount of the fluid flow to a front portion of the valve port, (ii) one or more second flow channels arranged to direct a second amount of the fluid flow to a rear portion of the valve port, and (iii) one or more third flow channels arranged to direct a third amount of the fluid flow to one or both side portions of the valve port.

A pressure regulator includes a valve body having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet connected by a fluid passageway. An orifice is disposed between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. A valve seat is disposed within the fluid passageway. A movable valve plug is disposed within the fluid passageway, and the valve plug interacts with the valve seat to selectively open or close the fluid passageway. A cage is disposed in the fluid passageway, the cage surrounds the valve plug, and the cage includes a mechanical stop that limits movement of the valve plug within the cage away from the valve seat.

The embodiments disclosed herein provide a check valve aspirator including a venturi pipe having a converging section with a converging inlet and a converging outlet, and a diverging section with a diverging inlet and a diverging outlet. The converging outlet is in fluid communication with the diverging inlet. An outlet channel is in fluid communication with the venturi pipe and has an outlet port.

A valve stem includes a valve stem body connected to a valve stem head. The valve stem is for use with a choke valve. The valve stem body has first and second ends with an expandable valve stem tip extending from the second end of the valve stem body, The valve stem tip expands radially outwardly in an opening in the valve stem head to secure the valve stem head to the valve stem body.

A closed-loop control valve module for closed-loop controlling a fluid flow is described, which comprises an electrical valve actuator motor, wherein a valve spindle comprising a frustoconical sealing section is displaceable by means of the valve actuator motor along a valve spindle axis and the frustoconical sealing section, depending on the position of the valve spindle, releases or separates off a flow channel connecting a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. A pressure compensation channel is provided which, at least in the closed state of the closed-loop control valve module, connects an end of the valve spindle opposite the valve actuator motor to a pressure compensation area or the fluid inlet in terms of flow.

A water valve, in which a water film is formed when the water valve connected to a water tank provided at a refrigerator door is opened and then closed and thus water film sealing is established downstream of an opening/closing surface of the water valve, thereby preventing dripping of water remaining in the water valve, enabling a clean use, and a refrigerator using the water valve. A valve body structure, in which a tube for guiding a flow of water toward a portion where a water film is to be formed between a nozzle and a valve is provided at the valve and an opening for releasing a water pressure even when the flow of water excessively concentrates, and thus, the water flowing through the opening may join a mainstream of the water discharged through a water passing hole.
