FREELY CLOCKING CHECK VALVE
A check valve assembly for use with a liquid jet cutting system can include a check valve body a high-pressure fluid inlet on one end and a high-pressure fluid outlet on the other end along a central axis of the check valve body. The check valve body can have a first metallic seal surface on an outer surface of the check valve shaped to engage an endcap of the liquid jet cutting system to form a first seal. The assembly can include an annular low-pressure fluid chamber surrounding a portion of the check valve body and defined at least in part by an annular gasket, the check valve body, the first seal, and the endcap. The check valve body can include a low-pressure fluid channel, and a check valve positioned between the low-pressure fluid channel and a high-pressure fluid chamber.
DISCHARGE VALVE
A discharge valve is provided in a recirculation line through which gas discharged from a fuel cell stack recirculates to the stack. The discharge valve opens or closes a discharge line through which a fluid in the recirculation line is discharged. The discharge valve includes a valve body connected to the discharge line and a drive part disposed in the valve body to be movable vertically. A diaphragm is coupled to a lower end of the drive part and selectively opens or closes the discharge line based on the vertical movement. The drive part switches between a closed state in which the discharge line is closed by the diaphragm, a first opened state in which the discharge line is opened to a first opening degree, and a second opened state in which the discharge line is opened to a second opening degree greater than the first opening degree.
Pressure relief valve
A pressure relief valve includes a valve body having a main bore, an inlet bore which is connected to the main bore, an outlet bore which extends through a side of the valve body, and a valve bore which connects the inlet bore with the outlet bore. A valve member is positioned in the valve bore and is movable between a closed position in which a fluid in the inlet bore is prevented from flowing into the outlet bore and an open position in which the fluid in the inlet bore is permitted to flow into the outlet bore. The valve member is movable from the closed position to the open position in response to an overpressure event in the main bore. The valve body further includes a return bore which connects the inlet bore with the main bore.

HYDROCARBON FLOWLINE CORROSION INHIBITOR OVERPRESSURE PROTECTION
The disclosure describes hydrocarbon flowline corrosion inhibitor overpressure protection. Such a protection system includes a fluid flow pathway fluidically coupled to a corrosion inhibitor injection pump that injections corrosion inhibitor into a hydrocarbon carrying flowline. When the injection pump pressure exceeds a threshold flow pressure, the corrosion inhibitor is flowed through a first branch of the fluid flow pathway to relieve the excess pressure. The first branch is fluidically isolated from a second branch. When a rupture disc in the first branch fails, then the corrosion inhibitor is diverted to flow through the second branch and the first branch is isolated from the corrosion inhibitor flow.
Capless closure assembly for fuel-tank filler pipe
A capless filler pipe closure is provided for a tank filler pipe. The capless closure permits a fuel pump nozzle to be inserted into the tank filler pipe without first removing a fuel cap form the outer end of the tank filler pipe.

Safety valve
The present application relates to a safety valve, in particular a safety valve which can be released by manual operation and automatic operation. The safety valve comprising: valve body having an inlet, an outlet and a releasing port; and valve core being movable within the valve body between a close position in which the inlet communicates with the outlet and an open position in which the inlet communicates with the releasing port, the valve core comprises a resilient member which biases the valve core to the close position; wherein the position of the valve core can be manually or automatically controlled such that the valve core is able to switch between the close position and the open position, fluid flows from the inlet to the outlet in the close position and flows from the inlet to the releasing port in the open position.
