The present invention relates to a dispensing device, a valve, a containing apparatus having same, a contents moving apparatus, and a contents apparatus, comprising a passing operation unit provided in the housing, for moving and guiding contents, wherein the passing operation unit comprises a contents passing means for moving the contents. Unlike conventional art, the present invention may secure a space for passing contents while preventing reception of contents, which exceeds a demand, by adjusting a passing space and a receiving space, stably induce passing of a demanded amount of contents within a predetermined range, and prevent remaining of contents more than necessary by limiting the space for receiving the contents, thereby enabling adjustment of the amount (number) of contents being received.

A plumbing fixture fluid diversion assembly minimizes dripping from an outlet conduit of a spout body by restricting passage of accumulated fluid through the outlet conduit. The assembly comprises a hollow spout body having an inlet conduit that carries fluid to a diversion chamber. The diversion chamber is in communication with the inlet conduit and the outlet conduit. A routing notch helps control the flow of the fluid towards a chamber opening that is disposed between the diversion chamber and the outlet conduit. The chamber opening enables passage of fluid to the outlet conduit. A flap selectively covers and uncovers the chamber opening to control dripping from the outlet conduit. The assembly generates an initial force to at least partially urge the flap towards the chamber opening for covering by pulling a cable, displacing magnet proximal to the flap, or creating a vacuum to displace the flap.

A retrofit damper system is configured for installation in existing ductwork including a duct supplying conditioned air through a register boot to a register vent. The retrofit damper system includes a damper assembly including a damper blade and a damper motor configured to drive the damper blade between a closed end position and an open end position. A control module includes a control module housing and a controller within the control module housing that is configured to regulate operation of the damper motor. The controller outputs a drive signal that causes the electric damper motor to drive the damper blade to the desired position and creates a plurality of interruptions in the drive signal while driving the damper blade. A sense circuit senses back EMF signal, and the controller estimates a blade position based at least in part on the back EMF signals.

An automobile exhaust valve is provided, in particular for an automobile combustion engine and more particularly for an embodiment of an implementation of a gas passage shutter. A valve body defines a gas circulation passage along a longitudinal axis and is composed of only two identical half-bodies whose axes, parallel to the longitudinal axis, are offset radially, in order to define inside the valve body two seats on which sides of the gas passage shutter come into flat contact in a closed position. An exhaust pipe equipped with such a valve, and a vehicle equipped with such an exhaust pipe, are also provided.

A submersible pump system includes a Y-tool system including a Y-Block having a production tubing branch, a submersible pump branch, and a bypass branch, an electrical submersible pump coupled to the submersible pump branch, a valve assembly coupled to the bypass branch, and a hydraulic system coupled to the valve assembly, the hydraulic system providing a hydraulic fluid to a chamber of the valve assembly. A method includes lowering production tubing into a wellbore, the production tubing including a submersible pump system with a Y-tool system including a Y-Block, and actuating a valve assembly disposed in a bypass tubing coupled to a bypass branch of the Y-Block to open or close a bore of the bypass tubing, the actuating including providing a hydraulic fluid to a chamber of the valve assembly.
