A flow control component comprises a water inlet pipe, and a shower equipped with the flow control component. A partition formed with water holes which are different in aperture is disposed in the middle of the water inlet pipe; a first rotating block with a water diversion opening and a main water opening respectively formed at two ends is installed in an inner hole of the water inlet pipe; a first water passage which communicates with the water diversion opening and the main water opening is disposed in the middle of the first rotating block. The water inlet pipe is externally sleeved with an adjusting sleeve; a toggle pin passes through a radial arc-shaped hole on an outside face of the water inlet pipe; the adjusting sleeves drives the first rotating block to rotate through the toggle pin such that the water diversion opening selectively communicates with the water holes.

A fluid flow control assembly includes a first pipe-in-pipe assembly comprising an inner tubular member disposed in an outer tubular member, wherein the inner tubular member comprises an inner bore and an annulus is formed between the inner tubular member and the outer tubular member, a terminating bulkhead assembly coupled to the first pipe-in-pipe assembly, wherein fluid communication is provided between a bore of the bulkhead assembly and the inner bore of the inner tubular member while fluid communication is restricted between the bore of the bulkhead assembly and the annulus of the first pipe-in-pipe assembly, and an annulus conduit coupled to a radial port of the first pipe-in-pipe assembly, wherein fluid communication is provided between the annulus conduit and the annulus of the first pipe-in-pipe assembly while fluid communication is restricted between the annulus conduit and the inner bore of the inner tubular member.

Drain valves with rotatable angled outlets that can be rotated without allowing flow or stopping flow through the valve, containers including the valves, and methods of using the valves, are disclosed.

A faucet that includes a housing, a first valve, a handle body, a handle, and a second valve. The first valve is disposed at least in part within the housing and controls one of a flow rate and a temperature. The handle body has an elongated base, which extends from the housing along a longitudinal axis and is operatively coupled to the first valve, such that rotation of handle body about the longitudinal axis relative to the housing controls the first valve. The handle extends from the base along a radial axis relative to the longitudinal axis. The second valve is disposed at least in part within the handle and controls the other of the flow rate and the temperature, the second valve operatively couples the handle to the base, such that rotation of the handle about the radial axis relative to the handle body controls the second valve.

A valve that includes a housing, a ball having a channel passing therethrough, the ball housed within the housing, a stem extending out from a surface of the ball perpendicular to the channel, a gear coupled to the stem, the gear comprising a number of teeth, and a sleeve having a racked channel defined on an interior surface of the sleeve that interfaces with the teeth of the gear.

A faucet that includes a base configured to detachably mount to a mounting surface; a sleeve coupled to and extending upwardly from the base; a handle body disposed around the sleeve and configured to rotate about a vertical axis, the handle body including a vertical portion and a horizontal portion extending outward from a side of the vertical portion; a first valve disposed within the base; a second valve disposed within the horizontal portion of the handle body; and a spout configured to receive water from the sleeve and direct the water to an outlet of the spout; where the vertical portion of the handle body is configured to be rotated about the vertical axis to control the first valve, and the horizontal portion of the handle body is configured to be rotated about a horizontal axis to control the second valve.

Constriction valves for catheters and method of using constriction valves are presented. The catheter valve has a conduit defining a lumen. The catheter also has a spring that is configured to bias the lumen from an open position to a closed position by altering an effective length of the conduit or altering the circumference of the conduit. The spring is further configured to change its configuration by changes of intraluminal pressure of the valve. A user can insert a tool into a catheter having a valve by manipulating the valve to expand a substantially closed lumen by compressing the spring, twisting the spring, or pulling on a cord coupled with the valve.

A device and method for producing a filled container from a preform using liquid contents introduced under pressure into the preform that includes a molding and filling station having a mold in which the preform is converted into the filled container and a molding and filling head to which the liquid contents are supplied under pressure via a supply line. The molding and filling head has a filling valve for controlling a supply of the liquid contents to the preform that includes a first and a second pipe stub of substantially identical diameter arranged at a distance from one another, a valve body arranged between the stubs having a largest diameter that corresponds to the diameter of the pipe stubs, and a sleeve that is displaceable along and bridges the distance between the pipe stubs in a leak-tight manner. The sleeve has a maximum internal diameter that is greater than the largest diameter of the valve body, and is displaceable along the pipe stubs such that, in a closed position of the valve arrangement, the sleeve is in contact with a sealing surface arranged on the valve body that has a diameter that is substantially the same as the diameter of the pipe stubs.

An erosion prevention structure for a sealing surface of a valve includes a valve body, a valve seat, a valve core, a valve sleeve and a valve rod. A valve seat mounting hole is provided in the valve body and located between a medium outlet and a cavity; the valve seat is arranged in the valve seat mounting hole; the top surface of the valve seat is provided with an annular table; the outside surface of the annular table is a sealing surface A, wherein an included angle is formed between the sealing surface A and a horizontal surface; an annular flange is arranged at the bottom of the valve core and located at the outer side of the valve core; the inside surface of the annular flange is a sealing surface B, wherein an included angle is formed between the sealing surface B and a horizontal surface.
