A regulator connected to the dispenser body and in fluid communication with the container and the pressurized effervescent liquid, the regulator and the dispenser body being configured as a unitary assembly permitting selective passage of the pressurized effervescent liquid. A tube connected to the dispenser body and extending into the container, a spout connected to the dispenser body for discharging pressurized effervescent liquid, and the liquid dispenser is permanently affixed to the container and the container is non-refillable.

A fluid control device has a body, actuator, and slam-shut device. The body defines an inlet, an outlet, and a plurality of slam-shut openings, and a seat is positioned along a flow path between the inlet and outlet. The actuator is configured to modulate a position of a first control element relative to a first side of the seat along an actuation axis to control a fluid pressure. The slam-shut device has a second control element that is movable along the actuation axis and is biased toward a second side of the seat and a slam-shut actuator configured to trigger the second control element to move to the closed position in which the second control element contacts the second side of the seat. The slam-shut actuator includes a shaft and the slam-shut actuator and shaft are positionable in any one of the plurality of slam-shut openings in different configurations.

A fluid regulator includes a regulator body having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet connected by a fluid flow path, with a portion of the regulator body forming a first chamber, an orifice disposed in the fluid flow path, a seat, and a control element disposed within the fluid flow path and shiftable between an open position spaced away from the seat and a closed position seated against the seat, with the control element arranged to respond to fluid pressure changes to control flow of a process fluid through the orifice. A diaphragm has a radially inner portion that is operatively coupled to the control element and a radially outer portion that is operatively coupled to the regulator body. The diaphragm includes a resilient redundant diaphragm sandwiched between two metal diaphragms, the diaphragm providing two separate seals.

In some embodiments, a tube portion can be configured to be fluidically coupled to a patient access component. A source of pressurized fluid can be coupled to the tube portion and can be configured to deliver fluid to the tube portion at a source pressure. A fluid pressure regulating device can include an expandable reservoir and can be coupled to the tube portion such that the expandable reservoir is in fluidic communication with the tube portion. The fluid pressure regulating device can be configured such that, when fluid is delivered from the source of pressurized fluid to the lumen of the tube portion at the source pressure, the expandable reservoir of the fluid pressure regulating device can receive fluid such that the expandable reservoir of the fluid pressure regulating device expands and fluid is delivered from the lumen of the tube portion to the patient via the patient access component.

The invention relates to a valve device (1) having a pressure regulator (3) for a flowing gas and a housing (4). The pressure regulator (3) includes a diaphragm (31), a spring (34), a control actuator (32), and a control seat (33). The control actuator (32) includes a plate-like portion (32) and a rod-like portion (32) adjacent to one side of the plate-like portion (32), the control seat (31) encompassing the rod-like portion (32) of the control actuator (32). The diaphragm (31) and the control actuator (32) are mechanically coupled to each other such that an axial movement of the control actuator (32) moves the diaphragm (31). In addition, the spring (34) and the control actuator (32) are mechanically coupled to each other. The control seat (33) limits a movement of the control actuator (32). In one state, the control seat (33) and the control actuator (32) prevent the gas from flowing. The control seat (33) is configured as a ring arranged in a recess (40) of the housing (4).

A first valve mechanism is a valve mechanism provided in a flow path coupled to a liquid ejecting head that ejects a liquid, and including a valve that opens/closes the flow path, a first communication liquid chamber that communicates with the flow path, and a first pressure receiving body that converts a pressure difference between a pressure of the first communication liquid chamber and a reference pressure into an operating force of the valve, in which a threshold pressure of the first communication liquid chamber for determining opening/closing of the valve is variable.

The invention concerns a nozzle support device (10) comprising a body (12) that has a fluid inlet passage (24) and at least one outlet passage (26), and that comprises a revolving section that forms a hub (16) that extends around a rotational axis (A), a nozzle-carrying head (14) that is rotatably mounted on the hub (16) of the body (12) around the rotational axis (A), and that is designed to simultaneously carry at least two nozzles, and immobilising means (74, 86) for immobilising the nozzle-carrying head (14) in rotation on the body (12) in a plurality of predefined positions, characterised in that the device (10) is provided with a mechanism for rotating the nozzle-carrying head (14) comprising an oscillating drive member (90) provided with at least one retractable drive pawl that has one free end designed to push the drive teeth in succession.

A pressure reducing valve includes a valve housing, plunger, pressure sensing cavity, and biasing member. The valve housing includes a valve inlet and valve outlet in selective fluid communication with each other. The plunger is in the valve housing and movable between a closed position and open position. The plunger is positioned downstream from the valve inlet and upstream from the valve outlet. The plunger includes a venturi and a channel. The venturi is within the plunger and has a venturi inlet and venturi outlet. The channel is within the plunger and is in fluid communication with the venturi. The pressure sensing cavity is in fluid communication with the channel. The biasing member exerts a biasing force on the plunger toward the open position. The channel is in fluid communication with the pressure sensing cavity to provide a fluid pressure that is lower than the outlet pressure during flow.

A container is disclosed including an effervescent liquid and an effervescent liquid dispenser including pressurized gas from a pressurized gas source, and a regulator in selective fluid communication with the container and the pressurized gas source. In response to a differential pressure applied to the regulator being less than a first threshold value between a container pressure and an environmental pressure of an environment surrounding the dispenser, pressurized gas from the pressurized gas source is permitted to flow into the regulator chamber and the container until the first threshold value is achieved. In response to the differential pressure applied to the regulator being greater than the first threshold value between the container pressure and the environmental pressure, pressurized gas from the pressurized gas source is prevented from flowing into the regulator chamber and the container and in which the liquid dispenser is permanently affixed to the container.
