Valve position indicator
A valve position indicator for a valve includes an outer housing, actuation rod, indicator flag, and follower. The actuation rod is positioned within the outer housing, which is couplable to a tail stem protector of the valve. The actuation rod may have a helical slot formed therein. The actuation rod may be rotatably coupled to the outer housing. The indicator flag may be coupled to the actuator rod and may extend radially therefrom. The follower may be couplable to a tail stem of the valve. The follower may extend in a direction perpendicular to the extent of the tail stem. The follower may extend through a slot in the tail stem protector and into the helical slot of the actuation rod when the valve position indicator is coupled to the tail stem protector.
Pressing-controlled valve for fluid
A pressing-controlled valve for fluid has a valve casing, valve seat, fixed valve plate, movable valve plate, driving piece, press structure and a pulling structure, wherein the valve seat is assembled on one end of the valve casing. The fixed valve plate, movable valve plate and driving piece are disposed in the valve casing. The fixed valve plate is in watertight contact with the valve seat, and the movable valve plate and valve plate overlap. A flow channel for fluid is formed among the valve seat, fixed valve plate and movable valve plate. The driving piece is in contact with the movable valve plate. The pulling structure includes a shaft lever and drawing piece. The press structure pulls the shaft lever to move, and the shaft lever pulls the drawing piece through a pull rod, so that the driving piece drives the movable valve plate to slide laterally.
Stem guide system
A system including a stem guide system, including a stem guide, and a sleeve coupled to the stem guide, wherein the sleeve is configured to rest within a valve stem groove of a valve stem.
Electrically Operated Gas Flow Regulating Valve
An electrically operated gas flow regulating valve in which a needle valve body (2) is moved axially through a motion conversion mechanism (4) by the rotation of an electric motor (3). The motion conversion mechanism (4) includes: a guide tube (5) in which is formed axially elongated slits (51) with which cam pins (21) fixed to the needle valve (2) are slidably engaged; and a tubular cam body (6) having a spiral cam part with which the cam pins (21) are engages through elongated slits (51). In an arrangement in which one of the guide tube (5) and the cam body (6), e.g., the guide tube (5), is rotated by the electric motor (3), hysteresis is restrained from occurring.
The cam part disposed in the cam body (6) is constituted by a spirally inclined sides (61) with which the cam pins (21) are brought into contact from axial one direction. A spring member (7) is disposed so as to urge the cam pins (21) in the other of the axial directions toward the spirally inclined sides (61).

Valve comprising a movement transformation device
The invention relates to an engine control valve (1) which comprises a rotatable actuator (7), a valve (5), and a movement transformation device (9) suitable for transforming the rotation of the actuator (7) into translation of the valve (5). The movement transmission device (9) comprises a helical link with uniform pitch for translating the valve (5).
LEVER MECHANISM FOR CONVERTING A MOTION FROM LINEAR TO ROTARY
A lever mechanism for converting a motion from linear to rotary includes a guiding bar, a slider which slides along the guiding bar, and a lever. The lever includes a cylindrical element and a pair of slot links which are fixed frontally on the cylindrical element and between which the slider is arranged. The slider includes at least two bushes for supporting a pivot which is adapted to act on the slot links. The bushes are mutually separated by a space to accommodate a reserve of lubricant.
FUEL TANK ISOLATION SOLENOID VALVE FOR VEHICLE
A fuel tank isolation solenoid valve for a vehicle is provided. The fuel tank isolation solenoid valve may include a first plunger configured to be vertically movable and a second plunger configured to move along a plunger rotation path such that the plunger is mechanically maintained in an opened position or a closed position while no power is applied to a coil.
VALVE STEM LIFTER
A valve stem lifter assembly which operates to alternatively open and close a valve, includes a rotatably mounted rotary shaft having a free end axially aligned with a pull shaft and an opposite free end axially aligned with an operator for selectively producing rotational movement of the rotary shaft and corresponding axial movement of the pull shaft. The rotary shaft is rotatably connected to a valve riser element by radius set screws positioned axially in the grooves of the rotary shaft. A plurality of guide shaft rods interconnects the riser to the valve stem lifter assembly to prevent axial separation of the riser and rotary shaft while permitting free relative rotation of the rotary shaft and linear movement of the pull shaft.
ROTARY ACTUATOR, AND BEVERAGE FILLING SYSTEM
In a rotary actuator comprising a housing containing a piston and having a cover and a base, thread-like guide grooves in the piston, a shaft having a transverse axis and being rotatable about an axis of the rotary actuator which transverse axis engages into the guide grooves, and torque support engaging into guides in the piston, which torque supports are anchored in the housing, wherein the transverse axis on both ends comprises bushes contacting raceways of the guide grooves, each bush is cambered and each raceway is configured with an undercut corresponding to the cambering.
