The invention relates to a valve device (100) for a gaseous medium, in particular hydrogen, comprising a valve housing (6) and a solenoid armature (14) which is arranged in the valve housing and can move along the longitudinal axis (18) and which interacts with a first sealing seat (32) in order to open and close an outlet opening (40). Furthermore, the valve housing (6) is equipped with a second solenoid armature (16) which can be moved along the longitudinal axis (18) and which is at least partly received in a recess (38) of the first solenoid armature (14), and the second solenoid armature (16) interacts with a second sealing seat (34) in order to open and close an outlet opening (20) formed in the first solenoid armature (14). The first solenoid armature (14) and the second solenoid armature (16) are additionally surrounded by a magnet device (11), by means of which the first solenoid armature (14) and the second solenoid armature (16) can be moved along the longitudinal axis (18) using precisely one solenoid (10).

A one-way valve for use in a wellbore includes a housing having a longitudinal axis defining a flow bore. A valve seat is arranged in the housing along the flow bore. A flapper member is pivotally supported in the housing between a closed position and an open position. The flapper member includes a first side having a sealing surface that selectively engages the valve seat in the closed position and an opposing second side. The flapper member also includes a central portion that is aligned with the longitudinal axis in the closed portion and a passage extending through the flapper member. An equalizing cartridge is arranged in the passage. The equalizing cartridge includes an equalizing housing and an equalizing plunger including an activation end provided at the first side of the flapper member.

A testing cap for a valve body includes a base configured to releasably attach to the valve body and to cover an opening in the valve body. The opening is configured to receive a valve cartridge and the base covers the opening in place of the valve cartridge. The testing cap includes a structure extending from the base. The structure is configured to be oriented relative to the valve body in a first orientation and a second orientation. The structure allows fluid to enter the valve body through an inlet port in the valve body and exit the valve body through an outlet port in the valve body when the structure is oriented in the first orientation. The structure covers at least one of the inlet port and the outlet port when the structure is oriented in the second orientation, thereby preventing fluid flow through the valve body.

A valve device includes a body, a solenoid valve, and a manual valve mounted to the body. The manual valve being configured to open and close the gas flow channel via a manual operation. The gas flow channel includes a first flow channel including the valve-side opening portion, and a second flow channel including the tank-side opening portion, and includes an intersection portion in which a first center axis that is a center axis of the first flow channel and a second center axis that is a center axis of the second flow channel intersect with each other. A center axis of the solenoid valve coincides with an extension line of the first center axis and a center axis of the manual valve coincides with an extension line of the second center axis.

A valve assembly for a hydrant can include a main valve defining a bore; and an auxiliary valve assembled to and extending through the bore of the main valve, the auxiliary valve defining a fluid channel through the auxiliary valve, the auxiliary valve including: an upper auxiliary valve shaft; a lower auxiliary valve shaft, the upper auxiliary valve shaft movable in a vertical direction with respect to the lower auxiliary valve shaft, a position of the lower auxiliary valve shaft restrained with respect to a position of the upper auxiliary valve shaft within a predetermined movement range; and a sealing element preventing fluid flow through the fluid channel.

A fuel tank isolation valve for a vehicle includes a drive unit having a solenoid coil; a flow path unit having a vaporized fuel gas flow path; a valve assembly configured to open or close the flow path in the flow path unit by being operated by the drive unit, where the valve assembly includes: a first valve configured to open the flow path by being operated by a magnetic force generated by the coil; and a second valve configured to open the flow path while operating in conjunction with the first valve by being caught by the first valve when the first valve operates. The first valve and the second valve may operate in conjunction with each other by being mechanically caught, such that it is not necessary to provide a separate spring for operating the second valve.

A variable flow poppet valve includes a first stage, a second stage, a bushing disposed in the second stage, and a cap configured to actuate the valve open. The first stage includes an inner valve plug having a head with a first tapered portion and a shaft extending downstream from the head, and a first stage spring disposed within the bushing and extending around the shaft. The shaft is attached to the cap to allow the cap to actuate the inner valve plug to the open position. The second stage includes an outer valve plug having an upstream portion and a second tapered portion extending downstream from the upstream portion. The bushing includes a shoulder, and the cap is configured to engage the shoulder to actuate the outer valve plug to the open position.

A valve suitable for an air spring includes a housing body with a central longitudinal axis and channel. The housing body has a first valve opening fluidically connectable to an air spring volume, a second valve opening fluidically connectable to an air supply, which is fluidically connectable to an air spring volume, and a second valve opening which is fluidically connectable to an air supply. Each valve opening is fluidically connected or selectively connectable to the channel. A pressure limiter is provided to limit the pressure flowing out of the second valve opening, the pressure limiter including a third sealing agent and a second sealing agent associated with the second valve opening and selectively closing an opening, wherein pressurization of at least the third sealing agent displaces the second sealing agent due to the forced coupling such that it closes the corresponding opening or reduces the effective opening cross-section.
