Described is an active check valve that uses electro-magnetic actuation for operation. The valve includes a plunger assembly having a magnet in a sealed internal volume. The plunger assembly further includes a plunger tip that extends from either a plunger assembly housing or a sealing member. Although the plunger assembly is disposed in the solvent flow, the magnet is not exposed to the solvent. When the valve is actuated, the plunger tip moves the sealing member to open or close the valve. Optionally, an arming force may be applied to the sealing member in advance of opening or closing to reduce the subsequent additional force necessary to move the sealing member during opening or closing, thereby improving the accuracy of the solvent composition in liquid chromatography system applications.

Examples disclosed herein relate to conduits, devices, systems and methods, which may include a hollow element including an inner surface and an outer surface which allows for a passage of one or more of one or more fluid elements and one or more gaseous elements, a constraining element with one or more openings and one or more non-open elements, one or more blocking elements configured to stop the passage of the at least one of the one or more fluid elements and the one or more gaseous elements when the one or more blocking elements are in a first position relative to the one or more openings, and a movement device configured to move the one or more blocking elements to a second position relative to the one or more openings which allows for the passage of the one or more fluid elements and the one gaseous elements through the one or more openings in the constraining element.

A valve unit (V) has a valve housing (50) that includes a supply oil passage (55) configured to receive operating oil from a hydraulic pump, and a pressure adjustment valve (Va) configured to adjust the pressure of the supply oil passage (55). The pressure adjustment valve (Va) includes a pressure adjustment valve body (61) configured to open and close the supply oil passage (55), a compression coil spring (62) that keeps the pressure adjustment valve body (61) at a closed position when the pressure of the supply oil passage (55) is smaller than a set value and allows the pressure adjustment valve body (61) to open when the pressure of the supply oil passage (55) is not smaller than the set value, and a restriction member (63) configured to, when the pressure adjustment valve body (61) becomes open against the urging force of the spring (62) in response to a pressure of the operating oil, abut against the pressure adjustment valve body (61) to restrict movement of the pressure adjustment valve body (61).

A solenoid valve includes a magnet assembly and a valve cartridge having an armature guided movably inside a capsule, a valve insert, a slide which is guided movably inside the valve insert and has a closing element and a sealing element, and a valve body with a valve seat. A main valve includes the sealing element and the valve seat. The slide is formed in two parts with the sealing element as the first part and the closing element as the second part. When the valve is not energized, the valve is open, and when the valve is energized, the sealing element seals in the valve seat. The sealing element and the closing element are made of different materials, and the material of the sealing element allows a partial elasticity of the slide while the material of the closing element allows a partial stiffness of the slide.

A simulator valve includes a housing having a pedal simulator passage and a master cylinder passage extending therethrough. The master cylinder passage is located longitudinally between the first housing surface and the pedal simulator passage. An armature is located at least partially within the housing for selective longitudinally reciprocating motion with respect thereto between first and second armature positions. A poppet is located within the housing for selective longitudinally reciprocating motion with respect thereto between first and second poppet positions. The poppet defines a first valve and a second valve the poppet includes a poppet bore extending longitudinally therethrough and selectively occluded by the first valve. A damped flow fluid path selectively permits fluid communication therethrough from the master cylinder passage to the pedal simulator passage. A free flow fluid path selectively permits fluid communication therethrough from the pedal simulator passage to the master cylinder passage.

A valve can include a valve body having an inlet, an outlet, an orifice disposed fluidically between the inlet and the outlet, a fitting having a first end configured to be removably coupled with at least one of the inlet and the outlet of the valve body and a second end configured to be coupled to a fluid conduit, and a retainer configured to at least partially resist uncoupling of the fitting from the valve body. A fitting can be configured to slidingly and sealingly engage at least a portion of an inlet and/or outlet bore. A retainer can be configured to couple with a valve body and a fitting. A fitting can be or include a crimp or press fitting, in whole or in part.

An electromagnetic valve comprises a valve body having a dividing wall which separates a first chamber and a second chamber and a through-hole formed in the dividing wall and in which a valving element is inserted, a guide member having a main body portion disposed between an outer peripheral surface of the valving element and an inner peripheral surface of the valving element and forming a gap with the inner peripheral surface of the through-hole, an insertion hole through which the valving element is inserted and which slides against the outer peripheral surface of the valving element, a flange portion provided on an one-end side of the main body portion and being in contact with the dividing wall and a tapered portion provided in the one-end side and disposed inside the first chamber. The flange portion is pushed toward the dividing wall by a pushing member.

A solenoid valve, in particular for controlling a brake pressure of a wheel brake of a motor vehicle, includes a pole core, an axially moveably mounted armature, a valve element, a closure element, a plunger, and a pressure spring. One end of the armature is associated with the pole core. The valve sealing element is arranged at another end of the armature. The armature has an axial through-opening. The closure element is force-lockingly and/or interlockingly retained in the axial through-opening in a selectable position. The plunger is axially moveably mounted in the axial through-opening, which provides a connection to the pole core in an installation position. The pressure spring is positioned in the axial through-opening and is retained in a pretensioned manner between the plunger and the closure element. The closure element is designed as a three-dimensionally convex element.
