A solenoid valve includes a main poppet configured to control a flow rate of working fluid flowing in a valve passage according to a pilot pressure, an auxiliary poppet configured to adjust the pilot pressure according to the electromagnetic force, and a first seat portion and a second seat portion provided in the valve passage. The main poppet includes a poppet valve seated on the first seat portion and a spool valve slidable in the second seat portion. The spool valve includes an outer peripheral surface slidable relative to the second seat portion and through holes open on the outer surface and configured such that areas thereof exposed from the second seat portion change in accordance with a movement of the spool valve.

A hydraulic valve having a hollow valve body configured with a supply port and a supply port. The hollow valve body has several different internal diameters. An elongate spool is reciprocally received in the body and has a large diameter annular spool ring oriented adjacent a sensing land inside the hollow body forming a gap with a sensing land to cause a pressure drop across the gap in response to a flow of fluid from the pressure port through the gap to the control port. A servomotor reciprocally drives the spool lengthwise of the valve body against a spring force. When flow of fluid occurs in response to servomotor movement of the spool, the pressure drop across the gap combined with the spring force determines a pressure balanced location to which the spool is moved.

An agricultural system for hydraulic flow control having an adjustable hydraulic fluid valve arranged between a hydraulic reservoir and a hydraulic consumer, pressure is measured at the reservoir-facing side and at the consumer-facing side of the valve, from which the fluid flow through the valve can be determined. The valve can then be easily controlled to provide a desired fluid flow level, regardless of the type of hydraulic circuit used.

Gas flow control valve 3, wherein the gas flow control valve 3 comprises a housing 11 with a gas inlet 10, a valve seat 6 arranged in the housing 11, a valve body 5 assigned to the valve seat 6, wherein the valve body 5 is held by an upper spring and a lower spring and is centered by means of a diaphragm 26, and a gas outlet 12 which is positioned downstream of the valve body 5 and which is provided in the housing 11, wherein the valve body 5 is arranged in the valve seat 6 so as to be movable in a first movement direction 17 in order to form a controllable cross section of a passage opening 25 for the passage of gas, wherein the gas flow control valve 3 comprises an adjustable diffuser 13.

The invention relates to a gas control unit of modular design, in particular for controlling the quantity of gas to be fed to a gas burner, having a pneumatically controlled gas control valve that is configured as a whole as a module and is usable in such a gas control unit of modular design together with a gas safety valve.

Current natural gas measurement and regulation systems are sensitive to loss of electrical power, which can cause brownouts and curtailment of power in the local area if power systems reliant on natural gas are downstream from the station. A system for regulating the flow of natural gas and for guaranteeing the flow of natural gas from a source to at least one specific flow line even when the system is not provided with electrical power may be described. Such a system may include at least one of each of: a low-pressure regulation system, a high-pressure regulation system, an inlet gas filter, a relief valve, a low select relay, a differential pressure pneumatic relay, a reset relay, a 5-way universal relay, an electromechanically operated valve, a first manual multi-way valve, a second manual multi-way valve, a high calibration valve, a low calibration valve, a filter, and/or a differential pressure measurement system.

A pilot-controlled coolant valve is provided that includes a pressure chamber, a pressure release chamber, a control opening, a pressure release channel, an actuator having a plunger, a control piston stroke-actuated by the plunger, a closing piston moving in the pressure chamber, and a valve seat. The pressure chamber has an in-flow and an out-flow for coolant. The control opening connects the pressure release chamber to the pressure chamber. The control piston closes the control opening during the stroke actuation by the plunger, except for a radial sealing gap between the control piston and the control opening. When the control opening is closed, the closing piston sealingly rests on the valve seat and interrupts the connection of the through-flow chamber with the in-flow. Axial end sides of the closing piston delimit a stagnation pressure chamber on one side and a through-flow chamber on the other side.

A capacity control valve includes a valve housing discharge, port, a suction port, and control ports, and a valve element to be brought into contact with and separated from a valve seat by a driving force of a solenoid to open and close a communication between the control and discharge ports or communication between the control port and the suction port. A sliding region is formed by an inner peripheral surface of the valve housing and an outer peripheral surface of the valve element, a groove extending in a circumferential direction is formed in at least one of the housing inner peripheral surface of the valve housing and the outer peripheral surface of the valve element, and the sliding region has a structure in which a swirling current is generated in the groove by fluid flowing from a high-pressure side to a low-pressure side in a clearance between the inner peripheral surface and the outer peripheral surface of the valve element.

An adjustment position of a water output device is provided. A flow volume adjustment component of the water output device has a first position corresponding to a flow volume greater than zero; upon detecting that the flow volume adjustment component reduces the flow volume to that corresponding to the first position, a detection component sends a signal to a control component; and the control component-turns off an electronic waterway switch according to the signal. In this way, when the flow volume is reduced, the electronic waterway switch can be turned off by signal control, and in this case, the flow volume adjusted by the flow volume adjustment component is kept at a particular value, such that the next time water is output by a user using an electronic mode, the failure of water output would not occur.

Universal control circuitry for an electro-hydraulic valve actuator system includes logic gate circuitry to control one or more of a closing solenoid valve, an opening solenoid valve, an emergency shutdown solenoid valve, and a hydraulic fluid pump motor to route hydraulic fluid through a hydraulic circuit to actuate a valve via a hydraulic actuator according to received commands. The universal control circuitry is configured to control operation for multiple different configurations of a hydraulic valve actuator system including double-acting configurations, single-acting spring-to-open configurations, and single-acting spring-to-close configurations, each with or without an emergency shutdown arrangement (which may be configured to trip based on an external shutdown input alone or in combination with a local system power failure), a hydraulic accumulator, and maintained or momentary input commands.
