A safety valve for a housing, for releasing a housing opening of the housing if a defined burst pressure is reached or exceeded in the housing. It is provided here that in a base body of the safety valve including an elastomer, a receptacle groove that is continuous in the circumferential direction is formed for the formfitting accommodation of a retaining web of the housing. The disclosure furthermore relates to an energy accumulator for storing electric energy.

A gas regulator has a base and a blocking mechanism. The base has a transporting passage. The blocking mechanism has a plug, a first elastic unit, an elastic sealing sheet, and a switching unit. The plug is moveably mounted in the transporting passage and forms a gap for gas to pass through the transporting passage. The first elastic unit moves the plug to block an end opening of the transporting passage. The blocking chamber is formed between the elastic sealing sheet and the base. The switching unit is connected to the elastic sealing sheet and moves along with the deformation of the elastic sealing sheet relative to the plug. The switching unit abuts the plug to space the plug apart from the end opening. When the gas pressure is too high, the switching unit moves to allow the plug to move to block the end opening.

A fluid control device includes a piezoelectric pump, an inhaler, and a valve. The piezoelectric pump has a gas suction hole and a gas discharge hole. The inhaler has a container, an inhalation port, and a connection hole. The valve has a first ventilation hole, a second ventilation hole, a third ventilation hole, a first valve housing, a second valve housing, and a valve body. The first ventilation hole of the valve is connected to the connection hole of the inhaler. The second ventilation hole of the valve is connected to the suction hole of the piezoelectric pump. The third ventilation hole of the valve is opened to the atmosphere. The valve body is held between the first valve housing and the second valve housing, and configures a first region and a second region.

An inhalation device (1) comprising a compressor (2), an aerosol generator (3) and a pressure relief valve (4), wherein the compressor (2) is configured to provide a compressed gas for the aerosol generator (3) and the pressure relief valve (4) is configured to limit a pressure in the inhalation device (1).

A hydrostatic tank floor relief valve of a construction described herein provides for equalization of hydrostatic pressure of fluid in a storage tank with hydrostatic pressure of ground water surrounding the storage tank. A high efficiency grate located in a flow channel of the hydrostatic tank floor relief valve blocks debris from entering the storage tank during pressure equalization, yet does not reduce effective flow rates through a flow channel of a given diameter. The hydrostatic tank floor relief valve optionally includes an elastomeric seal surface and a stainless steel seat ring that reduce the likelihood of particulate matter disrupting valve operation, and provide a more reliable seal.

A non-return valve assembly for a high-pressure fuel injection system is disclosed. The valve comprises a valve chamber defined in part by a first body and in part by a second body and defining a valve chamber wall, an inlet passage formed in the first body and opening into the valve chamber at a valve seat defined by the first body, an outlet passage, and a valve ball received within the valve chamber and engageable with the valve seat so as to interrupt fluid flow from the outlet passage to the inlet passage through the valve chamber. The valve chamber wall comprises a plurality of guide portions to guide the valve ball in substantially linear movement within the valve chamber.

A flow control device includes a housing with an inlet and an outlet and a flow conduit disposed in the housing. The inlet, the flow conduit, and the outlet define a flow passage. A valve seat is disposed in the housing downstream of the inlet, and a shuttle is movably disposed in the housing and displaceable between a closed position engaging the valve seat to close the flow passage and an open position spaced from the valve seat to open the flow passage. A sealed chamber is defined between the housing and the flow conduit. A port coupled with a source of pressurized fluid communicates with the sealed chamber, where the shuttle is displaceable between the closed position and the open position based on a pressure in the sealed chamber. The threshold water pressure for displacing the flow conduit may be adjustable by modifying the pressure in the sealed chamber.
