Emergency stop valve
The invention relates to shut-off valve for controlling flow of a pressurised gas. The shut-off valve comprising a body defining a passage extending between a gas inlet channel and a gas outlet channel, a sealing element, and an emergency stop mechanism. The sealing element arranged to, in a first position, close the passage, and in a second position, open the passage to allow gas to flow between the gas inlet channel and the gas outlet channel through the passage. The invention also relates to a method for controlling flow of a pressurised gas with a shut-off valve and a method for activating an emergency stop of a shut-off valve.
Gas shut-off device
The invention is directed to a valve for a compressed gas cylinder, comprising: a valve body with an inlet, an outlet and a passage connecting the inlet with the outlet; a shut-off device of the passage with an actuating pin extending in the passage; a check-valve between the shut-off device and the inlet, the check valve comprising a seat and a movable closing member initially held at a position distant from the seat by contact with a guiding surface and movable past the position by the pin so as to cooperate with the seat and prevent a refilling flow of gas from the outlet to the inlet. The guiding surface is on a tubular portion fixed to the valve body and comprising at least one radial aperture so as to allow the refilling flow of gas to by-pass the closing member when in the distant position.
Spraying vessel capable of relieving overpressure and valve assembly thereof
The present invention relates to a spraying vessel and a valve assembly comprising the same, the spraying vessel comprising: a housing provided with an upper sealing cap for sealing an upper portion and a receiving space for receiving contents; a mount cup, mounted on the upper sealing cap, having a through hole formed in a central portion thereof; a stem housing provided with a mounting portion, mounted to the mount cup, having a hollow portion formed therein, and a communication flow path for making the hollow portion be in communication with the receiving space; a valve stem which is installed to pass through the through hole and slide in the hollow portion, and is provided with an orifice being configured to selectively communicate with the hollow portion by a sliding motion; and a flow path blocking valve formed to block an inlet of the communication flow path.
BAG-IN-KEG CONTAINER WITH VALVE SEALING LIP
A bag-in-keg container has a container body C, a flexible bag B within the container body, and a valve closure V attached to the container body. The valve closure includes a gas inlet port (11), a liquid dispensing port (12), and a spring-loaded valve member (6) to sealably close the gas inlet and liquid dispensing ports. An adapter (20) sealingly attached to the flexible bag B incorporates a bag PRV (26) to vent gas pressure from within the flexible bag. A container PRV (40) in the form of a flexible lip seal is operably associated with the valve member (6) to vent gas pressure from between the container body C and the flexible bag B. The lip seal is opened by a small positive pressure difference between inside and outside, but when the valve member (6) is opened to dispense liquid from the bag B the container PRV (40) is inoperative, allowing a relatively high internal gas pressure to be achieved when dispensing.
Machined pop up seal
A vapor blast system includes a pressure pot with an upper end and a main body, a fill inlet attached to the upper end of the pressure pot, and a seal assembly disposed in the pressure pot. The seal assembly is configured to control a flow of a fluid between the pressure pot and the fill inlet. The seal assembly includes a pop-up seal, a pipe, and a spring. The pop-up seal comprises an upper surface, a lower surface disposed opposite the upper surface, a blind hole disposed in the upper surface, a bore disposed in the lower surface, and a centerline axis disposed through a center of the pop-up seal. The pipe is attached to a lower surface of the pop-up seal, wherein a portion of the pipe is received by the bore. The spring is disposed in the bore and engaged with the pipe.
VALVE WITH INTEGRATED PRESSURE REGULATOR
A regulating valve device for a fluid cylinder includes a shut off valve having a ball tappet that actuates the shut off valve. A lever has a cam surface that interacts with the ball tappet as the lever is rotated to translate the ball tappet linearly and actuate the shut off valve. The lever is rotatable from a first valve closed position through a valve open position to a second valve closed position such that the valve open position is intermediate of the first and second valve closed positions. A pressure or flow regulating valve is downstream of the shut off valve. A handwheel is operatively connected to the pressure or flow regulating valve to adjust an outlet pressure of the pressure or flow regulating valve. The handwheel has an axis of operation that is offset from a longitudinal axis of the fluid cylinder by an acute angle.
TANK DEVICE FOR STORING A GASEOUS MEDIUM, COMPRISING A VALVE DEVICE
A tank device for storing a gaseous medium includes a valve device and a tank. The valve device includes a valve housing with a pilot valve element. The pilot valve element interacts with a first seal seat and thus forms a pilot valve, wherein the pilot valve element can be moved by a solenoid coil. Furthermore, the valve housing includes a main valve element which interacts with a second seal seat and thus forms a main valve. The pilot valve element additionally has a transverse bore perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of the tank device, said transverse bore opening into a transverse bore of the main valve element arranged perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of the tank device. A driver element is at least partly arranged in the transverse bore of the pilot valve element and in the transverse bore of the main valve element.
PNEUMATIC VALVE SYSTEM AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME
A valve assembly, a valve adapter and a bicycle tire are provided. The valve assembly includes a valve stem having a passage. A cap member is fluidly coupled to the passage and has circumferential concavity on an outer diameter adjacent an end. A core body is coupled to the valve stem and has a an axial opening. A biasing member is disposed within the axial opening. A seat is coupled between the core body and the cap member. A first sealing member is movably disposed between a first and second position, the sealing member being biased against the seat by the biasing member, the sealing member having a first end adjacent the seat and a lower portion. A second sealing member is operably coupled to the passage to selectively seal at least a portion of the passage, in response to movement of the lower portion.
PRESSURE REGULATING SHUT-OFF VALVE
A pressure regulating shut-off valve has a valve member regulating flow of fluid between an inlet and an outlet. The valve includes a pneumatic actuator having a piston having first and second faces that define first and second volumes within a cylinder. The second face has a greater surface area than the first face. The first and second volumes are fluidly connected to the inlet, and an electrically actuated valve controls the flow of fluid along a fluid path to the second volume. The electrically actuated valve closes the fluid path, when power is supplied to the electrically actuated valve, and opens the fluid path, when power is removed from the electrically actuated valve, which causes the pneumatic actuator to act on the valve member to hold the valve member in a fixed position.
Gas cylinder valve with radially extending operating handle
A valve comprising a body with an inlet, an outlet and a passage fluidly interconnecting the inlet and outlet; a shut-off device of the passage, with an actuating member movable along a longitudinal axis; a hand operating device of the actuating member, for selectively opening or closing the passage, and comprising a support element and a rotating element with at least one contact surface configured for sliding along at least one ramped surface on the support element, or vice versa, so as to convert rotation of the rotating element into a translation of the actuating member; wherein the body comprises two arms extending longitudinally and diametrically opposed relative to the longitudinal axis, with distal ends holding the support element.
