A pressure-tight stem cylinder seal and a self-energizing stem shoulder seal matching the stem cylinder seal that both use an equilaterally triangular soft ring as their sealing element, wherein their designing rules are first, by means of wedging function of a hard gland coaxial with the stem cylinder, to convert their original axial tightening force 2f respectively into a radial compression force 4f/√3 of their soft ring 04 on the stem 02 cylinder and another radial compression force 2f of their soft ring 06 on the stem 02 shoulder and ensure that the two soft rings are so compressed from a great room to a small room as to be able to pass a pressure or stress exactly to each different direction, then to cut off their off-stem corners to give their cavities an opening or give each soft ring an axial compressing allowance, and last, by means of anti-extrusion metallic C-rings without axial resistance, to close each opening to provide a full support for the sealing deformation of their soft rings compressed in their cavities.

Valve stem packing assemblies may include at least one end ring and at least one sealing ring. The at least one end ring may include an inner ring and an outer ring. Valves include a valve body, a valve stem, and a valve stem packing assembly.

A valve seal device is for a valve in a pipeline. The valve seal device has four moveable seats configured for sealingly contacting a valve member, two seats being positioned on each side of the valve member. At least one of the moveable seats on each side of the valve member is an actuation seat being controllable from a non-contact position to a contact position where it seals against the valve member.

A valve comprising housing body, partition plate, and collecting device. The housing body defines a housing cavity. The partition plate is provided in the housing cavity. A leakage passage extends along the partition plate through the housing body. The collecting device comprises a lower piece, an upper piece, and a connector connecting them. The upper piece and the lower piece cover a leakage passage upper port and a leakage passage lower port, respectively. The lower piece comprises a collecting cavity communicating with the leakage passage lower port. The lower piece and lower part of the housing body are provided with lower fitting assembly. The upper piece and upper part of the housing body are provided with an upper fitting assembly. The lower piece and the upper piece are fitted on the housing body in place by means of the lower fitting assembly, the upper fitting assembly and the connector.

A valve assembly for a dose filling machine having a valve body, a rotor and a first end seal assembly. The valve body has a main supply bore, a rotor bore, an upper rotor piston bore, and a side rotor dispensing bore. The rotor is rotatably positioned in the rotor bore. The first end seal assembly comprising a first end rotor seal engaging the valve bore and the rotor. A first end inner plate overlies the first side of the valve body and the first end rotor seal. The first end outer plate includes a bearing positioned within an opening thereof. A transverse slot extends from the opening to an outer edge so that a leak beyond the first end rotor seal proceeds through the transverse slot away from the bearing.

A stuffing box assembly for a valve includes a stuffing box and a packing module. The packing module carries one or more seals to engage with the stuffing box and a valve stem extending through the stuffing box. The packing module is able to be installed into, and removed from, the stuffing box as a single assembly. A valve stem can be formed with an integral ball on one end for engaging with a valve seat. The seals of the packing module create a fluid-tight seal against the valve stem and the stuffing box to inhibit fluid leakage through the stuffing box.

Methods and apparatus to load a valve packing are described. An example load apparatus to load a valve packing includes a guide including a flange and a wall protruding from the flange. The wall defines a cavity to receive a biasing element and a stop movable between a non-active state and an active state. The stop in the non-active state to enable movement of the guide in a first rectilinear direction relative to a longitudinal axis of a packing bore of a fluid valve and the stop in the active state to prevent movement of the guide in the first rectilinear direction. The stop to control an amount of deflection of the biasing element in the first rectilinear direction when the stop is in the active state.

A valve comprising housing body, partition plate, and collecting device. The housing body defines a housing cavity. The partition plate is provided in the housing cavity. A leakage passage extends along the partition plate through the housing body. The collecting device comprises a lower piece, an upper piece, and a connector connecting them. The upper piece and the lower piece cover a leakage passage upper port and a leakage passage lower port, respectively. The lower piece comprises a collecting cavity communicating with the leakage passage lower port. The lower piece and lower part of the housing body are provided with lower fitting assembly. The upper piece and upper part of the housing body are provided with an upper fitting assembly. The lower piece and the upper piece are fitted on the housing body in place by means of the lower fitting assembly, the upper fitting assembly and the connector.

A pressure-tight stein cylinder seal and a self-energizing stein shoulder seal matching the stein cylinder seal that both use an equilaterally triangular soft ring as their sealing element, wherein their designing rules are first, by means of wedging function of a hard gland coaxial with the stein cylinder, to convert their original axial tightening force 2f respectively into a radial compression force 4f/√3 of their soft ring 04 on the stein 02 cylinder and another radial compression force 2f of their soft ring 06 on the stein 02 shoulder and ensure that the two soft rings are so compressed from a great room to a small room as to be able to pass a pressure or stress exactly to each different direction, then to cut off their off-stein corners to give their cavities an opening or give each soft ring an axial compressing allowance, and last, by means of anti-extrusion metallic C-rings without axial resistance, to close each opening to provide a full support for the sealing deformation of their soft rings compressed in their cavities.
