A valve device for a fuel tank of a motor vehicle includes, for example, a housing having a tank connection for connecting the valve device to a vent line going to or coming from the fuel tank, and a filter connection for connecting the valve device to a vent line going to or coming from an activated charcoal filter. The tank connection and the filter connection are fluidically connected to one another inside the housing through a vent duct. A valve is arranged inside the housing for opening and at least partially closing the vent duct, wherein the valve has a valve element that is movably mounted between an opening position and a closed position inside the housing along a longitudinal axis of the housing. An actuating element is accessible from outside the valve device, which is movably mounted along the longitudinal axis inside the housing and motion-coupled in such a way with the valve element that a movement of the actuating element in a closing direction moves the valve element in closing direction. A valve element return element is configured to move the valve element in an opening direction, and arranged outside the vent duct, between the valve element and the housing.

A check valve includes a valve element and a valve body having a body housing, an annular valve seat insert, a bushing, and a biasing member. The body housing includes an outer circumferential wall extending between an inlet port and an outlet port to define a valve cavity therebetween. The valve seat insert is seated in a body seat surface surrounding the inlet port. The bushing is disposed in the valve cavity and defines a central bore, with the bushing including an outboard end surface axially engageable with the valve seat insert. The biasing member is disposed between a bearing portion of the body housing and an inboard end of the bushing to allow for axial movement of the bushing with respect to the body seat surface. The valve element extends through the bushing central bore and is movable between a closed position and an open position.

A mounting aid device for mounting a valve slide in a housing bore of a valve housing of a slide valve includes a mounting slide arranged movably in a guide of a guide piece and protruding out of the guide of the guide piece on both sides. The guide piece includes a first stop, with which the guide piece is placeable coaxially to the housing bore when the guide piece contacts the valve housing at the first stop. The mounting slide configured to protrude into the housing bore until contact on the second end region of the valve slide and, by force-loading of the mounting slide under compression of the spring element, the valve slide is movable until the valve slide reaches the first end position.

Systems and devices for deceleration of vehicles, such as parafoils descending from high altitude balloons, upon impact with ground. A valve may be configured to release air from within an airbag upon impact of the airbag with ground. The valve may be a one way check valve. The valve may include an axially moveable valve body biased by a spring. An increase in pressure within the airbag due to ground impact overcomes the spring biasing force to move the valve body and release air from the airbag. The released air provides a controlled deceleration due to increased absorption of the impact forces by the deflating airbag. Portions of the valve may be additively manufactured. A valve housing may include flanges that clamp onto the airbag envelope. The valve may be low cost and single use, such that the valve is replaced with a new valve for the next flight.

A valve for controlling fluid flows, including a valve housing in which a control bore extends along a bore axis, in which a first valve member is moveably accommodated along the bore axis between a first open position and a first closed position for a first fluid channel and in which a second valve member is moveably accommodated along the bore axis between a second open position and a second closed position for a second fluid channel and further including a first drive assigned to the first valve member and a second drive assigned to the second valve member, in which a helical compression spring extends along the bore axis from the first valve member to the second valve member and has a central spring section with a central coil pitch which is at least virtually identical to a wire diameter of the compression spring.

The present disclosure provides a pneumatic valve for vehicle. The pneumatic valve includes: a valve housing having a flow passage through which air flows; a core fixed to the center of the flow passage; a plunger that is disposed to face an end of the core and moves along the flow passage; and a damper made of an elastic material that is disposed at one end of the plunger facing the end of the core, and comes into contact with the end of the core by movement of the plunger.

A pressure relief valve includes a valve body having an inner wall defining a cylindrical bore. The inner wall includes a threaded region having a plurality of threads. The valve includes a pressure control calibration spring including a calibration portion and a force application portion. The calibration portion is threaded into the threads of the threaded region. The valve body includes an aperture in fluid communication with the cylindrical bore. An inner perimeter of the aperture defines a valve seat. A valve member is receivable on the valve seat. The force application portion urges the valve member into engagement with the valve seat and has a pitch that is greater than a pitch of the calibration portion. Rotation of the calibration portion in the threads of the threaded region of the valve body adjusts the spring force applied to the valve member by the force application portion.
