A bypass plunger includes a unibody, or one-piece hollow body and valve cage, retains a dart valve within the valve cage portion using a threaded retaining nut secured by crimple detents, and includes sealable flow parts. A series of helical grooves surround the central portion of the outer surface of the hollow body of the plunger to control spin during descent. A canted-coil-spring disposed within the retaining nut functions as a clutch. The valve cage includes ports that may be configured to control flow through the plunger during descent. Other embodiments include clutch assemblies using canted-coil springs with split bobbins, and surfaced valve stems surfaced.

A surge suppressor includes a boost mechanism configured to balance pressures between a working fluid and a process fluid. The boost mechanism includes a boost member that is acted on by a charge pressure of the working fluid. A shaft extends from the boost member to a pressure control member bounding the process fluid and acting on the process fluid. The boost member can have a larger effective area than the pressure control member to provide a pressure multiplication between the charge pressure and the process fluid pressure. In addition, pressure control valves are mounted to an air housing and actuated open by the boost mechanism. Actuating one of the pressure control valves open increases the charge pressure. Actuating the other pressure control valve open decreases the charge pressure.

A mechanically actuated traveling valve for use in fluid pumping equipment is provided. More particularly, a mechanically actuated traveling plug valve having a valve seat and a valve plug is provided for use in any positive displacement pump with a reciprocating element (either the plunger or the cylinder) capable of pumping fluids of any viscosity, with any gas to liquid ratio, operating at any inclination angle.

A fuel delivery injector includes a housing, an inlet port fluidly coupled to a cavity to direct fuel vapor and liquid fuel into the cavity, and an outlet port fluidly coupled to the cavity to direct fuel vapor and liquid fuel out of the cavity. A magnetic assembly is fixedly positioned within the cavity, and a pumping assembly includes a bobbin and a piston. A return spring is coupled to the pumping assembly to bias the pumping assembly to a home position. A valve is positioned within the piston and is movable between an open position and a closed position. The liquid fuel entering the housing through the inlet port flows from the inlet port to the cavity and fuel vapor entering the housing through the inlet port is directed through a conduit to the outlet port.

A reciprocating piston pump includes a pumping chamber, an inlet valve through which fuel passes to enter the pumping chamber, a piston configured to pressurize the fuel entering the pumping chamber, an outlet valve through which the pressurized fuel passes to exit the pumping chamber, and a solenoid actuator assembly coupled to the piston. The solenoid actuator assembly includes a fixed stator, a coil, and a movable armature. The movable armature is configured to move toward a first end of the fixed stator in response to the coil being energized.

A valve poppet assembly comprising a valve stem, a poppet insert retainer, and a poppet seat, wherein, in an assembled configuration, the valve stem extends along a central axis through the poppet insert retainer and the poppet seat, and wherein the valve stem, the poppet insert retainer, and the poppet seat are not a single, integral component.

A reciprocating element includes a cylindrical body having a front end opposite a tail end, and a central axis. The tail end of the cylindrical body is configured to be operatively connected to a pump power end that reciprocates the reciprocating element along a path within a bore of a pump fluid end during operation of a pump. The front end of the cylindrical body includes one or more tool engagement features positioned about an outer circumference of the front end of the cylindrical body of the reciprocating element and adapted to engage a corresponding one or more reciprocating element engagement features of a reciprocating element end of a tool. The reciprocating element can be rotated, pulled, and/or pushed via the tool relative to the central axis of the cylindrical body.
