A water outflow control assembly includes a water inlet body, a push rod, a rotor and an elastic member. The water inlet body is provided with a valve cavity. One end of the valve cavity is provided with a push rod hole for sliding of the push rod. The push rod is provided with push blocks. The rotor is provided with tooth blocks extending toward the push rod hole and matching with the push blocks, and a retaining wall with a gap. The retaining wall is in clearance fit with an inner wall of the valve cavity, and rotation of the rotor changes a degree that the retaining wall blocks a water inlet channel. By adopting the shower head with above mentioned assembly, the water outflow control assembly can be installed through a handle hole of a shower head body of a shower head.

An electrohydraulic system having an adjustment device for a valve includes a drive apparatus, a control apparatus, and a preloading apparatus. In the event of a fault, the energy stored in the preloading apparatus can be transferred to the control apparatus such that a rotational motion of the control apparatus begins, which leads to the adjustment of the valve. The preloading apparatus comprises at least one elastic element, which is arranged adjacent to a control shaft of the control apparatus, is stationarily connected to the control shaft, and applies a torque to the control shaft.

A valve actuation mechanism comprises a housing, an actuation pin rotatably mounted within the housing and at least one torque spring coupling the actuation pin to the housing for biasing the actuation pin from a first, inoperative rotational position towards a second, operative rotational position. The mechanism further comprises an actuation pin retaining element for selectively retaining the actuation pin in its first position, the retaining element being engageable with the actuation pin and the housing when the retaining element is in a retaining position so as to prevent rotation of the actuation pin towards its second position, and selectively disengageable from the housing to permit rotation of the actuation pin towards its second position. A locking element is provided for selectively preventing disengagement of the retaining element from the housing.

A multi-port valve assembly, which includes a housing, a rotor disposed in the housing such that the rotor is operable for being placed in a plurality of positions, and a first channel integrally formed as part of the rotor. The multi-port valve assembly includes various ports which are all integrally formed as part of the housing. The rotor is rotated such that the multi-port valve assembly is placed in one of a plurality of configurations having two or more flow paths, providing fluid communication between the various ports. The rotor may include a first side channel, a second side channel fluidically isolated from the first side channel, and where the first side channel and the second side channel are fluidically isolated from the first channel. The rotor may also a first channel and a second channel, and the second channel is fluidically isolated from the first channel.

Ball valves, methods to close a ball valve, and methods to form a well barrier are discussed. A ball valve includes a valve housing and a ball that is rotatably movable from an open position to a closed position. The ball valve also includes an actuation mechanism operable to rotate the ball from the open position to the closed position, where a fluid passage of the ball is not aligned with a fluid passage of the valve housing while the ball is in the closed position. The ball valve further includes a sleeve disposed in the valve housing and operable to shift from a first position to a second position to actuate the actuation mechanism.

An electromechanical actuating drive (1) for a bulk-goods shut-off element, comprising an electric motor (2) and a control and drive electronics unit (3) associated with the electric motor (2), wherein the electromechanical actuating drive (1) comprises a mechanism for storing energy.

A valve assembly includes a ball configured to block fluid flow through the valve assembly while the ball is in a closed position and to enable fluid flow through the valve assembly while the ball is in an open position. The valve assembly also includes an actuator assembly configured to drive the ball to transition between the open position and the closed position. In addition, the valve assembly includes multiple compression springs disposed on one side of the ball. Each compression spring of the multiple compression springs is configured to directly urge the ball toward the closed position.

A valve assembly failsafe configured to be coupled to an actuator of a coolant control regulator assembly is provided. The valve assembly failsafe includes a wind arm, a spring that engages the wind arm under spring tension, a latch that engages the wind arm, a drive gear that engages the wind arm and the actuator, and a driver that engages the latch. The valve assembly failsafe is configured to be positioned in a set state where the latch engages and retains the wind arm under spring tension and the drive gear freely rotates during rotation of the actuator, and a tripped state where the driver rotates the latch to disengage the latch from the wind arm, causing the wind arm to rotate under the spring tension to engage the drive gear and cause the drive gear to drive the actuator to a default position.

A relief valve provides pressure relief when a fluid line exceeds a predetermined pressure. The valve includes a body which defines a cavity between inlet and outlet flowpaths. The valve includes a lever arm, which pivots around a pivot point as the valve changes between open and closed positions. A plunger assembly is disposed in the cavity and seals the cavity from the inlet and outlet flowpaths in the closed position. Fluid pressure from the inlet flow path causes the plunger assembly to contact the lever arm to urge the lever arm to rotate. The lever arm engages a spring at a further distance from the pivot point than the plunger assembly, the spring resisting pivoting of the lever arm and urging the valve to remain in the closed position unless a predetermined pressure is exceeded.
