A device for controlling the flow of a fluid through a conduit from an upstream side of the device to a downstream side of the device. The device includes a valve aperture (30), a cylindrical mounting member (24) on the downstream side of the valve aperture, a valve member (26) on the outside of the cylindrical mounting member that moves reciprocally to open and close the valve aperture, a control volume (44) defined between the cylindrical mounting member and the valve member, an arrangement (8) for introducing a control pressure into the control volume, and a seal (34) between the outer surface of the cylindrical mounting member and the inner surface of the valve member that substantially seals the control volume. The valve member is acted on by the pressure of the upstream side (PI) and the control pressure (P4) so as to be moved by the difference between these pressures.

A pressure regulator has a main body, a piston, an elastic element and an adjusting element. The main body has an inlet and an outlet. The piston is mounted movably between the inlet and the outlet. The elastic element is mounted in the main body to prepossess that the piston to move toward the outlet of the main body. The adjusting element is mounted adjustably in the main body and selectively abuts against the piston to selectively close a flow path from the inlet to the outlet. Adjusting the position of the adjusting element results influences the compressed length of the elastic element. Therefore, the preset outlet pressure is fine-tuned.

A hydraulic system for a transmission of a motor vehicle, the system having first and second pumps for conveying hydraulic fluid into primary and/or system-pressure circuits so that an intended pressure prevails in the circuits. The system further including liquid retention means preventing a flow of hydraulic fluid conveyed by the second pump from being conducted through the first pump when the first pump is not conveying and the second pump is conveying, and preventing a flow of hydraulic fluid conveyed by the first pump from being conducted through the second pump when the second pump is not conveying and the first pump is conveying. The system additionally including a sailing-mode lubricating valve for controlling, by an open-loop system, a flow rate of hydraulic fluid conveyed by the second pump into the primary and/or secondary system-pressure circuits such that the intended pressure is set in the system-pressure circuits.

Provided is a valve assembly system including a flowbody including a channel formed at an inner surface thereof, a butterfly plate disposed within the channel and rotatably mounted within the flowbody. The system also includes a pair of dual-sided pistons that receive differential pressure at an input side and an output side of the valve assembly system. A spring is controlled for biasing against at least one of the dual-sided pistons based on the differential pressure, and to rotate the butterfly plate to regulate the differential pressure and the valve assembly system to a predetermined output pressure.

A pneumatically controlled assembly, system, method and device for the regulation of pressure of a gas as it flows in a pressurized line and including at least one loading valve which is set to respond to variations in pressure in conjunction with a pneumatically actuated process control valve so as to effectively regulate and maintain pressure of the gas in the pressurized line.

A regulator controls a pressure of fluid. The regulator includes a body having a cavity formed therein, an inlet through which the fluid flows, an outlet through the fluid discharged, and a pilot fluid inlet; a first diaphragm located in the cavity and partitioning the cavity into a first chamber and a second chamber, the first chamber being in fluid communication with the inlet and the outlet, the second chamber being in fluid communication with the pilot fluid inlet; a first biasing mean located in the first chamber and configured to bias the first diaphragm; and a second biasing mean located in the second chamber and configured to bias the first diaphragm by being displaced based on pilot fluid pressure of the pilot fluid.

A pressure regulator has a pressure chamber connected to an inlet flow area which receives liquid flow. As liquid flows into a forward chamber of the pressure chamber, pressure is exerted on the forward face of the piston, which in turn causes the piston to slide longitudinally through the pressure chamber. An internal passageway through the piston fluidically connects the forward pressure chamber and rear pressure chamber such that as the piston slides into the rear pressure chamber pressure increases at the rear pressure chamber, which in turn forces the piston to move forwardly, thus regulating flow out of the pressure chamber. A hand wheel is configured to turn a movable plate located inside the pressure chamber, with the movable plate configured to impede the piston from moving rearwardly. Pressure sensors and vents with a pressurized air source may be used to keep the pressure within a desired range.

A control valve including: a valve housing including a piston space; and a control piston which is movably arranged in the piston space and sub-divides the piston space into at least a first valve space and a second valve space, the control valve including at least a leakage path which sets a desired leakage between the first valve space and the second valve space. A motor vehicle device including an adjustable rotary pump including an adjusting means, for adjusting a delivery volume of the rotary pump, and the control valve, using which a pressure for adjusting the adjusting means can be governed, the motor vehicle device including a means which presses the control piston into a first position and holds it there, and the at least one other inlet of the control valve is connected to a high-pressure side of the rotary pump when the rotary pump is in operation.

A pressure regulator has a main body, a piston, an elastic element and an adjusting element. The main body has an inlet and an outlet. The piston is mounted movably between the inlet and the outlet. The elastic element is mounted in the main body to prepossess that the piston to move toward the outlet of the main body. The adjusting element is mounted adjustably in the main body and selectively abuts against the piston to selectively close a flow path from the inlet to the outlet. Adjusting the position of the adjusting element results influences the compressed length of the elastic element. Therefore, the preset outlet pressure is fine-tuned.

The valve includes a casing arrangeable so the fluid in the passage flows over an outer side. The valve includes a piston axially slidably positionable within the casing, and the axial position regulates the fluid pressure in the poppet valve passage downstream, an annular clearance between the piston and casing. The valve includes a dynamic seal between the piston and casing to seal the annular clearance end. The valve includes a piston chamber located on the dynamic seal opposing side of the annular clearance so a leakage flow may cross the dynamic seal between the annular clearance and piston chamber. The fluid pressure in the piston chamber varies the axial position within the casing. A diversion path formed in the casing diverts fluid for the leakage flow into the annular clearance from the fluid flow in the passage, the diversion path having filter to filter debris from the diverted fluid.
