Valve for an adsorption heat pump and use of the valve in an adsorption heat pump
10408357 · 2019-09-10 · ·

A valve for an adsorption heat pump may be adjustable between a closed position, a first open position, a second open position, and at least one intermediate position. The valve may include a first channel, a second channel, a third channel, a first valve unit, a second valve unit, and a spring element providing a closing force upon the first valve body and the second valve body. The valve may also include an actuating drive configured to hold the valve in position without power. The actuating drive may include a stepping motor and a gear unit constructed and arranged to hold the valve in position via a currentless holding moment. The first valve unit and the second valve unit may have a valve opening characteristic of a flow coefficient dependent on an adjustment path that is not linear. The valve opening characteristic may include at least one flat region.

ADAPTER FOR POOL CLEANING SYSTEM

An adapter for a pool cleaning system is provided. The adapter includes a base member having a top and a bottom surface. The adapter also includes six upper ports coupled to the top surface of the base member, each upper port including an upper aperture extending through the upper port and through the base member. The adapter further includes five lower ports coupled to the bottom surface of the base member, each lower port including a lower aperture extending through the lower port and through the base member. In some embodiments, four of lower ports are in fluid communication four of the upper ports and one of the lower ports is in fluid communication with two of the upper ports.

INFLATION CONTROL VALVE

Systems, methods, and devices are described for providing a fluid control means for an inflation system. The control directs fluid flow from an inlet to one or more outlets of the control. The outlets are independently connected in fluid communication with the inlet by through the control. The control allows a user to create a fluid path between the inlet and a selected outlet by positioning the control in an orientation corresponding to the desired outlet. Each outlet is independently connected in fluid communication with the inlet in various orientations of the control.

SWITCHING VALVE, BINARY PUMP, AND LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPH WITH BINARY PUMP
20190211813 · 2019-07-11 ·

A switching valve is used in a binary pump. The switching valve is provided with a first liquid delivery port to which a first pump unit is connected, a second liquid delivery port to which a second pump unit is connected, and an output port leading to an output unit that outputs a liquid to be delivered. The switching valve is configured so as to be switched to any one of the following states: a first state in which the first liquid delivery port is connected to the output port and the second liquid delivery port is not connected to any port; a second state in which the second liquid delivery port is connected to the output port and the first liquid delivery port is not connected to any port; and a third state in which both the first liquid delivery port and the second liquid delivery port are connected to the output port.

Multiple flow rate hydrant
10161534 · 2018-12-25 ·

A hydrant for selectively valving and delivering fluid under pressure to a plurality of different fluid outlets. The hydrant housing has at least one fluid inlet and multiple fluid outlets. A valve operating shaft is mounted for axial rotation in the hydrant housing and positioned transversely to a valve seat having a first set of valve ports therethrough annularly arranged on a first circumference about the shaft, and a second set of valve ports are provided through the valve seat and annularly arranged on a concentric second circumference of different diameter than the first circumference about the shaft. A valve actuator disk secured for rotation with the operating shaft slidably engages the valve seat in a rotary fashion to selectively valve the valve ports open and closed in selected combinations with rotation of the shaft to preselected positions of rotation.

Brace having an inflation control

Systems, methods, and devices are described for providing a brace having an inflation control. The control directs fluid flow from an inflation component to one or more inflatable cells of the brace. The inflatable cells are independently inflated and deflated by the inflation component through the control. The control allows a user to create a fluid path between the inflation component and one of the inflatable cells by positioning the control in an orientation corresponding to the desired inflatable cells. Each inflatable cell is independently inflated and deflated in various orientations of the control.
