SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISPOSING OF FLUID FROM A KITCHEN SINK
A fluid-disposing system for a galley sink includes: a galley sink for a galley cabin monument, a self-regulating valve, a control unit, a sensor, and a signal connection between the sensor and the control unit. The valve input is connected to a fluid line, connected to a drainage opening of the galley sink. The valve is arranged underneath the drainage opening, such that fluid from the galley sink can flow through the associated drainage opening into the fluid line. The valve output is designed to be couplable with a source of negative pressure. The valve is designed to automatically open at a predetermined amount M1 of fluid in the fluid line, such that fluid can flow out of the fluid line, and to automatically close at a predetermined amount M2 of fluid in the fluid line, such that the predetermined amount M2 of fluid remains in the fluid line.
Fluid control valve
A regulator performing fluid control includes an annular protruding portion having a valve seat on its leading end and an annular diameter-decreasing surface formed by decreasing an inner diameter of the annular protruding portion toward a valve hole. The regulator includes a valve element provided with a contact surface to be in contact with the valve seat and a columnar step portion provided on an inner peripheral side of the valve seat protruding from the contact surface toward the valve hole, the step portion having a diameter larger than an inner diameter of the valve hole and being coaxially formed with the valve hole. An annular ridge is formed by an outer peripheral surface of the step portion intersecting an end face of the step portion on the valve-hole side with the annular diameter-decreasing surface to constitute a passage narrowing portion.
Dome-loaded back pressure regulator with setpoint pressure energized by process fluid
A method of operating a thermal system including at least a compressor, a condenser, a flow control valve, and at least one heat exchanger connected in a closed fluid loop charged with refrigerant. The method includes: regulating refrigerant pressure at a selected point within the fluid loop using a pressure regulating apparatus including: a main pressure regulator including a dome in fluid communication with a diaphragm that seals directly against at least one process void and at least one vent void; and a pilot pressure regulator in fluid communication with the dome so as to provide fluid thereto at a setpoint pressure. The setpoint pressure is maintained by the pilot pressure regulator utilizing refrigerant tapped from the fluid loop The refrigerant is tapped from a point upstream of the main pressure regulator and tapped refrigerant is returned to the fluid loop downstream of the main pressure regulator.
CAPACITY CONTROL VALVE
A capacity control valve V includes a valve housing, a primary valve opened and closed by a driving force of a solenoid, a pressure-sensitive valve disposed in a pressure-sensitive chamber, and a differential pressure valve opened and closed by a differential pressure valve body moved by a pressure. A control port and a suction port communicate with each other through an intermediate communication path by opening and closing the pressure-sensitive valve. An adapter is provided with an accommodation portion accommodating a differential pressure valve body, and first urging member and a second urging member are interposed in the accommodation portion on both sides of the differential pressure valve in an opening and closing direction with the differential pressure valve body interposed therebetween.
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
A pressure relief valve includes a bowl-shaped housing having a bottom wall and an annular sealing wall, wherein the sealing wall delimits a valve through-opening, and a jacket wall. A cover is provided for covering a housing opening of the housing opposite to the bottom wall, having a diaphragm holder extending in the direction of the bottom wall. A diaphragm is provided for covering the valve through-opening, wherein the diaphragm is connected to the diaphragm holder and disposes the diaphragm holder sealingly on the annular sealing wall such that the valve through-opening is closed.
CONTROL SYSTEM FOR REGULATING WATERWORKS PRESSURE
A control system for regulating fluid flow and pressure downstream a waterworks main valve includes a variable orifice device disposed upstream a pressure reducing pilot. The variable orifice device is in fluid communication with the pressure reducing pilot and a cover chamber of the main valve. Opening and closing the variable orifice device causes the main valve to modulate and the pressure of fluid downstream the main valve to be changed while avoiding pressure oscillations during the transition between pressure setpoints.
VALVE STRUCTURE WITH BUILT-IN VALVE SEAT OF PRE-ACTION WARNING VALVE
The present invention discloses a valve structure with a built-in valve seat of a pre-action warning valve, including: a valve body, a valve cap, a valve seat, and a membrane clack. The pre-action warning valve provided in the present invention has the advantages of being simple, reliable, and low in manufacturing costs.

Inversion inhibitor for fluid control valve and methods of fluid control
A fluid control valve includes a cover portion and a body portion. Inner surfaces of the cover and the body portion define a chamber that includes an inlet and an outlet in communication with the chamber. The cover portion includes a central section and an inversion inhibitor circumscribing the central section. The inversion inhibitor projects into the chamber toward a central axis of the chamber. The fluid control valve also includes a diaphragm disposed between the cover portion and the body portion. The diaphragm has a flexible member that is disposed within the chamber for controlling communication between the inlet and the outlet. The inversion inhibitor prevents the flexible member from reaching its natural-inverted position and creates a force within the flexible member that urges the flexible member to a seated position. In the partially inverted position, the upper surface of the flexible member conforms to at least a portion of the inner surface of the cover portion to define a passageway that permits communication between the inlet and the outlet.
Capacity control valve
A capacity control valve V includes a valve housing, a primary valve opened and closed by a driving force of a solenoid, a pressure-sensitive valve disposed in a pressure-sensitive chamber, and a differential pressure valve opened and closed by a differential pressure valve body moved by a pressure. A control port and a suction port communicate with each other through an intermediate communication path by opening and closing the pressure-sensitive valve. An adapter is provided with an accommodation portion accommodating a differential pressure valve body, and first urging member and a second urging member are interposed in the accommodation portion on both sides of the differential pressure valve in an opening and closing direction with the differential pressure valve body interposed therebetween.
