The suction valve can be operable to abut against a plunger as the plunger translates in a first direction such that the suction valve is in a closed configuration. The suction valve includes a latching component operable to abut against a catch surface of the plunger when the plunger translates in a second direction opposite of the first direction such that the suction valve translates in the second direction.

A suction cover assembly for a reciprocating pump assembly includes a suction cover having a body that is configured to be held at least partially within an access port of a fluid cylinder of the reciprocating pump assembly. The body includes a receptacle that includes at least one radial opening that extends through the body. The suction cover assembly includes a suction cover retainer that includes a plug configured to be at least partially received within the receptacle of the body. The suction cover retainer includes at least one retention segment configured to be held within the at least one radial opening of the body. The plug is configured to be moved between a locked position wherein the at least one retention segment is in a radially extended position and an unlocked position wherein the at least one retention segment is in a radially retracted position.

The discharge valve arrangement (17) includes a valve plate (18) including a discharge passage (22) and a valve seat (23) surrounding the discharge passage (22); a valve housing (24) being secured to the valve plate (18) and including a bottom portion (25) facing away from the valve plate (18), a sidewall (26) extending from the bottom portion (25) and towards the valve plate (18), and a discharge opening (28) formed in the sidewall (26); a valve member (31) displaceable between a closed position in which the valve member (31) closes the discharge passage (22) and an open position in which the valve member (31) opens the discharge passage (22). The valve housing (24) includes a gas damping chamber defined by the bottom portion (25) and the sidewall (26) and being configured to accommodate the valve member (31) in the open position; and an exhaust opening (37) formed in the bottom portion (25) and emerging in the gas damping chamber.

Responsiveness is improved in valve opening and valve closing of an electromagnetically driven intake valve unit in which a valve is provided on a pressurizing chamber side of a valve seat. The valve includes an annular abutting surface that abuts the valve seat to shut off a fuel intake passage and a bottomed cylindrical part provided at an inner peripheral part of the annular abutting surface. The bottomed cylindrical part is inserted into a fuel introduction hole formed in the valve housing inside the valve seat, and the outer surface of an end part of the bottomed cylindrical part is exposed to fuel in a low pressure fuel chamber provided upstream of the fuel introduction hole.

A cylinder head cover for a coolant compressor, wherein the cylinder head cover is attachable to a cylinder head arrangement in order to form a hollow space for receiving a coolant compressed by the piston, wherein the cylinder head arrangement comprises a valve plate attached to the cylinder housing and having an outlet opening and an outlet valve, which closes the outlet opening in cycles and consists of a valve spring and a stop plate for delimiting an opening movement of the valve spring. In order to achieve a cost-efficient production and installation of the cylinder head cover while assuring a secure support of the stop plate, it is provided that the cylinder head cover can comprise at least two contact surfaces for supporting stop plates of different outlet valves in order to adjust different opening positions of the valve springs of the different outlet valves.

A linear compressor includes a cylinder, a discharge valve, a valve spring pressing the discharge valve to close one side of the cylinder, and a spring support portion providing a support point for the valve spring to press the discharge valve. The valve spring includes a first spring arm whose center is connected to the discharge valve and extending spirally, a second spring arm spaced apart from the first spring arm by a predetermined distance with respect to an axial direction of the cylinder and extending spirally toward an outer portion according to a shape of the first spring arm, and a rubber damper connecting the first spring arm and the second spring arm and fixing relative positions of the first spring arm and the second spring arm.

A pump inlet valve includes a valve body and a plunger assembly. The valve body includes a valve body cavity. The plunger assembly is arranged within the valve body cavity and includes a plunger body, a plunger barrel formed at the plunger body so as to form a plunger barrel volume, and a plunger. The plunger is configured to move within the plunger barrel to thereby allow a fluid to flow past the plunger assembly when the plunger is in an open position and to inhibit the fluid from flowing past the plunger assembly when the plunger is in a closed position. The plunger is configured to allow continuous fluid communication between the plunger barrel volume and a supply inlet, through which fluid is supplied to the pump inlet valve.

A fuel pump, is disclosed, including a power group having a housing, a coil, a pole piece and a movable armature; a valve group including a valve body, a plunger connected to the armature, a bushing in which the plunger is disposed, an inlet chamber, an outlet chamber, a pump chamber, an inlet valve disposed between the inlet chamber and the pump chamber and an outlet valve disposed between the pump chamber and the outlet valve; and an inlet filter coupled to a fluid inlet of the valve group. The inlet filter is disposed relative to the coil such that when the fuel pump is disposed within a fuel tank, a bottom of the inlet filter as oriented in the fuel tank is disposed above a fuel level in the fuel tank and the coil is at least partly submerged in the fuel.

Frac pumps have a fluid end and a fluid end block. The fluid end block has a plunger cylinder having a primary axis, a suction bore having a primary axis, a discharge bore, and a pump chamber. The pump chamber is defined by the intersection of the plunger cylinder, the suction bore, and the discharge bore. The fluid end block has a cylindrical portion extending along the primary axis of the suction bore. The cylindrical portion has a diameter greater than the diameter of the plunger cylinder. The pump chamber also has a ridge that extends radially inward from the walls of the pump chamber in a plane normal to the suction bore primary axis.

A mud pump is provided that includes a pump shaft having substantially circular eccentric lobes. Each lobe is rotatably mounted in a connecting rod that, in turn, moves a slide in a horizontal and linearly manner. A pony rod operatively couples a pump fluid end module to one or both sides of each slide frame and a pump fluid end module. As the pump shaft turns, each lobe causes the slide to move side to side. As the slide moves side to side, each pony rod operates a pump fluid end module whose outputs can be coupled to a common manifold.
