A method of manufacturing a hydraulic valve component using additive manufacturing includes laying successive layers to form a flow aperture for a hydraulic valve component, and creating a lattice or mesh structure that at least partially defines the flow aperture of the hydraulic valve component, or a feature that forms an undercut along a direction that is parallel to a flow direction of the flow aperture, or a flow aperture having a size varying along a circumferential direction of the valve component.

Among other things, this document describes systems, devices, and methods for improving the delivery and performance of web pages authored to produce virtual reality (VR) or augmented reality (AR) experiences. In some embodiments, such web pages are analyzed. This analysis may be initiated at the request of a content server that receives a client request for the HTML. The analysis may involve, asynchronous to the client request, loading the page into a non-user-facing browser environment and allowing the VR or AR scene to execute, even including executing animation routines for a predetermined period of time. Certain characteristics of the scene and of objects are thereby captured. Based on this information, an object list ordered by loading priority is prepared. Consulting this information in response to subsequent requests for the page, a content server can implement server push, early hints and/or other delivery enhancements.

A capacity control valve in which control precision is high is provided. A capacity control valve V includes a valve housing provided with a suction port through which a suction fluid of suction pressure Ps passes, and a control port through which a control fluid of control pressure Pc passes, a pressure drive portion that receives a force in the contracting direction from the suction fluid, and a main valve formed by a valve element that receives a force in the valve opening direction from the pressure drive portion, and a valve seat with and from which the valve element is brought into contact and separated. The valve element is arranged to receive a force in the closing direction from the control fluid.

A check valve bleed assembly eliminates the requirement for a person to enter the red zone when bleeding the grease out of a gate or other valve. A gas or other fluid is provided to the check valve bleed assembly. The gas or other fluid acts upon the surface driving a pin into the associated check valve with sufficient force to overcome the resistance of the object sitting on a seat and moves the object off of the seat. The force is maintained as long as is necessary. Usually, the check valve is held open until the gate transitions into the gate's associated gate recess thereby displacing the grease within the gate recess through the check valve, into the check valve bleed assembly, and finally to a waste collection tube. In some embodiments a gate valve greasing access port is included in the check valve bleed assembly such that grease may be injected into the check valve bleed assembly.

A drill string safety valve device (1) has a body (2) with a through-going flow bore (25) and connectors (3, 4) at respective ends (19, 18) for connection to tubulars, such as pipe joints. A valve member (7; 29) is movably arranged in said flow bore (25) and configured for being set in one of two states: a first state of the valve member allows fluid to flow in both directions though the flow bore, and a second state of the valve member allows fluid flow through the flow bore in only one direction. The valve member may be a rotatable ball valve (7) with a through-going flow bore (21).

A valve of the present disclosure includes a valve seat formed with a valve hole; a spherical valve body; and a pressing member that presses the valve body toward the valve hole, the valve hole being closed by the valve body pressed by the pressing member; where the pressing member includes a guiding part that, when a force opposing the urging force acts on the valve body by greater than or equal to a prescribed value, separates the valve body away from the valve seat while guiding and relatively moving the valve body in a predetermined one direction.

The invention relates to an implantable valve (1) for a drainage system for discharging cerebrospinal fluid, comprising: a valve housing (10) extending along a valve axis (A), an inlet (2) and an outlet (3) as well as a valve housing (10) surrounding an interior space (4), a valve body assembly (600) arranged in the interior (4) and movably arranged in the interior space (4), a first valve seat (5), wherein the valve body assembly (600) is configured to abut the first valve seat (5) to close a flow connection between the inlet (2) and the interior space (4) of the valve housing (10), a second valve seat (7) which faces the first valve seat (5), wherein the valve body assembly (600) is configured to abut the second valve seat (7) to close a flow connection between the outlet (3) and the interior space (4) of the valve housing (10), and a spring device (800) arranged in the interior space (4) which exerts a spring force on the valve body assembly (600) in the direction of the first valve seat (5).

Portable oxygen concentrator elements are described including integrated sensor/accumulator assemblies, new muffler designs, and improved airflow and internal gas connectivity. The result of the elements is an extremely compact, light reliable portable oxygen concentrator that is easy to assemble and relatively inexpensive.
