A disc valve, in particular a multi-way control valve, is provided which has a housing that has an inlet connection and an outlet connection as connections for a liquid and/or gaseous medium. The connections end in respectively different chambers of the housing, at least one valve disc, in particular a ceramic valve disc, which is provided with at least one first through-flow opening and is arranged rotatably mounted in the housing in order to fluidically connect and separate from each other the different chambers depending on its rotational position by means of the through-flow opening, and a control shaft, which is connected torque-proof to the valve disc in the housing. The disc valve is characterized in that the control shaft or the valve disc has a radial projection, and the housing has at least one rotation stop, which is located in the movement path of the radial projection.

An axial piston pump may comprise a valve plate assembly including a plurality of valve plates rotatably disposed adjacent to each other and configured to control the flow of fluid between a piston chamber and inlet and outlet port passages. The piston pump may also comprise a swashplate arrangement that is capable of being angled in two different directions to be used in combination with the valve plate assembly. A fixed displacement axial piston pump may also comprise the valve plate assembly disclosed herein in which pressure transitions are facilitated in the same fashion, but without the variable of changing swashplate angles which control pump flow.

According to an aspect, a gas supply mechanism for supplying a gas to a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus is provided. The gas supply mechanism includes a pipe connecting a gas source and the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus to each other, and a valve which is provided on the pipe. The valve includes a plate rotatable about an axis, the axis extending in a plate thickness direction, and a housing provided along the plate without contacting the plate to accommodate the plate, the housing providing a gas supply path along with the pipe. A through hole is formed in the plate, the through hole penetrating the plate at a position on a circle which extends around the axis and intersects the gas supply path.

A denting device for forming a predetermined pattern on a surface near a discharge hole and an intake hole of a valve plate for a compressor includes: a seating jig to which the valve plate is fixed; a processing pin in which a pressing part for pressing the valve plate is formed at a distal end thereof; and a moving unit which is disposed on an upper portion of the seating jig, horizontally moves the processing pin at a constant speed while allowing the processing pin to vertically reciprocate at a constant speed, so as to form the pattern on the valve plate.

A valve upper part, in particular for sanitary fittings, includes a sleeve-type head piece, which can be fastened in a valve housing of a fitting and through the center of which a spindle extends, which has a handle connection and is mounted for rotation about the longitudinal axis of the spindle and by which a valve body can be actuated, a groove being formed in the spindle, which groove receives an elastic sliding bush, which radially surrounds at least some regions of the spindle and which lies against at least some regions of the inner lateral surface of the head piece.

An actuated rotary valves for reciprocating compressors used in oil and gas industry, the valve including a stator with a stator opening, a rotor with a rotor opening, and an actuation mechanism. The actuation mechanism is configured to receive a rotation motion and to actuate the rotor to perform first an axial translation moving away from the stator and then a rotation. The actuation mechanism includes an outer shaft configured to receive the rotation motion, and an inner shaft inside the outer shaft and configured to rotate the rotor. The outer shaft is configured to rotate a predetermined angular displacement while pushing the rotor away from the stator before engaging the inner shaft to rotate together with the rotor.

A refrigerant valve device may include a base provided with an inlet port, an outlet port and a valve seat face; a cover to section a valve chamber between the valve seat face and the cover; a valve body turnably disposed at a position shifted to a side of one port inside the valve chamber, the valve body being provided with a contact face sliding on the valve seat face; and a valve body drive mechanism to turn the valve body. The valve body drive mechanism may turn the valve body and thereby a refrigerant flowing passage from the inlet port to the outlet port through the valve chamber is switched at least to a first refrigerant flowing passage and to a second refrigerant flowing passage. The refrigerant flowing amount in the first refrigerant flowing passage may be smaller than a refrigerant flowing amount in the second refrigerant flowing passage.

A two-input and two-output valve core structure comprises: a hood-shape outer shell, and a sway plate sleeve, a sway plate, a movable porcelain plate, and a fixed porcelain plate disposed therein. Wherein the hood-shape outer shell is provided with an upper passage port and a lower passage port. The movable porcelain plate includes a detachable upper movable plate and a detachable lower movable porcelain plate. The fixed porcelain plate includes a detachable upper fixed porcelain plate, a detachable lower fixed plate. A middle section of the sway plate is hinged onto the sway plate sleeve, an upper sway head of the sway plate is protruded out of the upper passage port of the hood-shape outer shell, while a lower sway head of the sway plate is extended into an upper opening of the upper movable plate.
