ROTARY VALVE
A rotary valve and float assembly for controlling a flow of liquid into a container including a plug valve portion and a divider portion. The plug valve portion including a set of plugs that seal against a set of openings in the divider portion when the rotary valve is in a closed position. Movement of the rotary valve between open and closed positions is controlled by the movement of the float assembly in the container. The float assembly typically moves according to a liquid level within the container.
VALVE FOR THROTTLING GAS FLOW FROM A SEMICONDUCTOR PROCESSING TOOL
A valve for throttling gas flow from a semiconductor processing tool includes a valve body. A shaft extends through the valve body. The shaft defines an internal cavity and a first opening communicating with the internal cavity. A first deflector is positioned on the shaft proximate the first opening and directed at a first interface between the shaft and the valve body. A method for throttling gas flow from a semiconductor processing tool includes providing a gas in an internal cavity defined in a shaft of a valve and directing the gas through an opening defined in the shaft and communicating with the bore toward an interface between the shaft and a valve body of the valve supporting the shaft.
Reservoir filling system for an electronic vaping device
A reservoir refill system for an electronic vaping device includes a refill container and a reservoir. The refill container contains a pre-vapor formulation. The refill container includes a body, an opening in the body, and a first interlocking ring including at least one groove or at least one protrusion therein. The reservoir is configured to contain a pre-vapor formulation and includes a reservoir body, an opening in the reservoir body, and a second interlocking ring including at least one groove or at least one protrusion therein at an opening of the reservoir. The first interlocking ring is configured to mate with the second interlocking ring so as to release the pre-vapor formulation from the refill container to the reservoir.
Gear motor, particularly intended for an air circulation valve
The disclosure relates to a motorised air circulation valve including a gear motor, a valve body, and a rotary shaft provided with a shutter. The rotary shaft is rotated by the gear motor, where gear motor includes a set of reduction gears, a brushless electric motor formed by a rotor having N pairs of magnetised poles connected to a pinion of the set of reduction gears, and the pinion drives an output wheel rigidly connected to the rotary shaft. The electric motor includes a stator part having at least two coils, the stator part having two angular sectors, alpha1 and alpha2, of respective radii R1 and R2, with R1 being greater than R2, and the center of the radii and the angular sectors being defined relative to the center of rotation of the rotor. The angular sector alpha1 is defined by the angular deviation between the axes of the first and last coils considered in a circumferential direction of the motor, the angular sector alpha1 is less than 180° and includes the coils, the sector alpha2 is devoid of a fully fitted coil, an end of the gear motor defines a side of the gear motor, and the angular sector alpha2 of the stator part is positioned facing the side.
Installment method of fluid control body, and fluid control device including fluid control body
An installment method of a fluid control body and a fluid control device including a fluid control body with which processes of designing, manufacturing, and managing the fluid control body are simplified to suppress cost of manufacturing, etc, includes a cut-off step of cutting off part of a fluid pipe inside a casing, and an installment step of installing the fluid control body including an on-off valve formed by a valve seat body and a valve element, and a partition body formed by a wall portion, a lid portion, and a seal component, inside the casing in a sealed manner in a state where an operation shaft of the on-off valve is placed in a direction different from the vertical direction.
Actuator and exhaust valve driving device
An actuator 1 includes a housing 2, an output shaft 3 protruding from the inside of the housing 2 to the outside, a motor 4 provided in the housing 2, and a reduction mechanism 5 that connects the motor 4 with the output shaft 3. The reduction mechanism 5 includes a worm gear, in which a worm 51 provided at a front end of a drive shaft 42 protruding from a main body 43 of the motor 4 and a worm wheel 52 rotating integrally with the output shaft 3 are engaged. A spindle 41 for increasing an inertia is provided between the worm 51 of the drive shaft 42 and the motor body 43.
Pull handle butterfly valve lockout device
A valve handle lockout device is configured to temporarily lock out a pull handle butterfly valve. The device includes an enclosure body, at least one lock hole, and a blocking wall. The enclosure body includes first and second enclosure portions having an opening at a proximal end of the enclosure body that is dimensioned to surround a base of the pull handle butterfly valve. The lock hole is configured to receive a locking member and thereby secure the device in a closed position on a handle of the pull handle butterfly valve. The blocking wall borders or is near to the opening and is configured to engage the pull handle butterfly valve when the enclosure body is secured in a locked position, thereby preventing removal of the device from the handle and the handle from being operated.
Coupling arrangement
A coupling arrangement is disclosed for rotationally coupling a drive element of a pivoting drive of an exhaust-gas flap for the exhaust-gas flow to a pivot shaft that is rotatable about a pivot axis. A first coupling element has a coupling region coupled to the pivot shaft for conjoint rotation about the pivot axis and a second coupling element has a coupling region coupled to the drive element for conjoint rotation about the pivot axis. A preload element acts on the first coupling element and the second coupling element substantially in a peripheral direction with respect to one another. One of the coupling elements has two rotational coupling projections which extend radially outward with respect to the coupling region of the coupling element. The other coupling element includes, so as to be assigned to each rotational coupling projection, a rotational coupling cutout which receives the corresponding rotational coupling projection.
