A high pressure valves for the energy sector. Specifically, a first valve assembly and a second valve assembly being in communication of each other around a plug to allow for dynamic control over the pressure desired to set the plug.

A valve seat is provided for use in a rotary valve for use in highly corrosive and abrasive applications. The valve seat includes a seat body adapted to selectively engage a portion of the floating ball element. The valve seat also includes a sealing element disposed in a first groove formed in the seat body and adapted to prevent fluid flow between the seat body and the valve body. The valve seat further includes a first bearing disposed in a second groove formed in the seat body, and a second bearing disposed in a third groove formed in the seat body, wherein the second and third grooves are formed immediately adjacent the first groove such that the first and second bearings are disposed immediately adjacent the sealing element.

A rotary-type valve device is provided, and includes: a tubular valve having an inner passage Ip and opening parts opened in an outer circumferential wall and rotating about a predetermined axial line a shaft rotating integrally with the valve, a housing accommodating the valve, supporting the shaft to be able to turn, and defining a communication port causing the inner passage to communicate with outside; a passage member assembled in the housing such that that the passage member abuts on an outer circumferential wall of the valve and defining a radial-direction passage. The valve includes a recessed part in the axial line direction and surrounding one end part of the shaft. The housing includes a tube part inserted into the recessed part and supporting the one end part and a support hole supporting the other end part of the shaft.

A rotary-type valve device includes: a tubular valve having an inner passage and opening parts opened in an outer circumferential wall from the inner passage toward an outward side in a radial direction; a housing accommodating the valve and turnably supports the valve; a tubular passage member assembled in the housing such that the passage member abuts on the outer circumferential wall of the valve and defining a radial-direction passage; and a biasing spring biasing the passage member toward the outer circumferential wall The passage member includes an abutting member abutting on the outer circumferential wall, and an intervening member having an annular pressing part intervening between the abutting member and the biasing spring and partially pressurizing the abutting member. The abutting member includes an annular sealing surface aligned with the annular pressing part in a biasing direction of the biasing spring.

A control or shutoff valve with a housing includes a valve seat arranged within housing between feed and a discharge, and a shutoff element arranged to be moveable relative to the valve seat in the housing. At least one feed channel leading to the valve seat is arranged in the housing to supply a pressure medium to reduce cavitation phenomena.

Disclosed is a coolant control valve unit having a sealing structure, the control valve unit including: a rotary valve provided with a valve coolant passage formed from an inner surface to an outer surface of the rotary valve; a valve housing in which the rotary valve is rotatably provided; a fitting coupled to the valve housing, and having a fitting coolant passage; and a sealing unit provided between a front surface of the fitting and the outer surface of the rotary valve, wherein the sealing unit includes: a sealing ring being in contact with the outer surface of the rotary valve; and a rubber ring provided on the front surface of the fitting, and bringing the sealing ring into contact with the outer surface of the rotary valve, wherein the rubber ring has an X-shaped cross-section, with a front groove, a rear groove, an inner groove, and an outer groove.

A valve with a valve upper plate defining an inlet, a valve body defining an outlet, and a fluid passage. A closure member is disposed in the fluid passage between the inlet and the outlet and has a convex sealing surface and is rotatable between a closed position in which the closure member extends across the fluid passage with the convex sealing surface oriented towards the inlet and an open position in which fluid is able to flow through the fluid passage from the inlet to the outlet. A resilient sealing ring, when the closure member is in the closed position, is moveable between a first configuration in which the sealing ring forms a seal around a circumference of the convex sealing surface and a second configuration in which the valve comprises a circumferential gap between the convex sealing surface and the sealing ring.

A valve assembly includes a valve body and a valve member extending through at least a portion of the valve body. The valve assembly also includes a seat pocket forming an annular recess in the valve body and a seat arrangement positioned at least partially within the seat pocket. The seat arrangement includes a lower seat extending radially inward from the annular recess toward the valve cavity axis. The seat arrangement also includes an upper seat at least partially overlapping the lower seat, the upper seat extending radially inward toward the valve cavity axis to contact the valve member along a seat face. The seat arrangement further includes an interface seal positioned along an interface between the upper seat and the lower seat, the interface seal receiving a fluid pressure to drive the lower seat radially outward and into the annular recess.

A control valve includes: a port, which is shaped in a tubular form; a valve element; and a metal seal, which contacts the valve element. A gap is formed between a tubular portion of the metal seal and the port in a perpendicular direction that is perpendicular to an axial direction of a flow passage of the port. Thereby, when the valve element is displaced in the perpendicular direction, the valve element urges the metal seal to displace the metal seal in the perpendicular direction in the state where the metal seal contacts the valve element.

Valves having seats and counterseats with various contours are provided. In one embodiment, a valve includes a body and a flow control assembly inside the body. The flow control assembly includes a ball, a seat installed on the ball, and a counterseat. The ball is rotatable between open and closed positions to control flow through the body and the seat and counterseat include mating surfaces that engage when the ball is in the closed position such that the seat seals against the counterseat along the mating surfaces. Further, the flow control assembly allows pressurized fluid in the body to enter a region between the seat and the ball and a region between the counterseat and the body so as to cause a net force on the seat from the pressurized fluid that pushes the seat away from the ball and against the counterseat when the ball is in the closed position and a net force on the counterseat from the pressurized fluid that pushes the counterseat toward the ball and against the seat when the ball is in the closed position.
