A high pressure fluid control device includes a valve body defining an inlet, an outlet, and a throat disposed between the inlet and the outlet. The valve body defines a longitudinal axis. A valve seat is disposed in the throat and includes a sloped surface. A seat support is disposed in the throat and is adjacent to the valve seat. The seat support includes a sloped surface adjacent to the sloped surface of the valve seat. A control element is disposed in the valve body and includes a stem and a seating surface. The control element is movable between an open position, in which the seating surface is spaced away from the valve seat, and a closed position, in which the seating surface engages the valve seat. The sloped surface of the seat support provides a rigid support to the valve seat to resist deformation of the valve seat.

A valve assembly includes a valve body defining a fluid inlet in fluid communication with a fluid outlet. The valve body has an inner body surface defining an interior chamber extending between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. A valve element is disposed within the interior chamber and rotatable through a range of positions relative to the outlet providing a high level of precision control of a fluid flow rate through the valve assembly. A valve seat with a seal is positioned around a valve element. The valve seat is configured to self-adjust its inner radial diameter to correspond to the outer radial diameter of the valve element to maintain a portion of an inner seat surface in contact with an outer valve surface of the valve element through the range of positions.

A new and innovative high-pressure priming valve is provided for use in high-pressure fluid systems that require a high level of fluid purity. The priming valve includes at least three ports, some of which are angled. The priming valve also includes a needle that variably blocks and unblocks a pathway to one of the ports between normal operation and a priming operation, respectively. The priming valve includes a sealing insert positioned below a stack of washers that maintain the needle's alignment in response to high fluid pressures exerted on the needle. The sealing insert helps prevent fluid from contacting the stack of washers, which helps prevent biological growth within the valve. The angled ports help facilitate priming valve drainage to further help prevent biological growth. By helping prevent biological growth, the sealing insert helps prevent fluid contamination and enables the priming valve to be utilized for high-purity fluid applications.

A relief valve includes a polymeric ring seat, a cylindrical member, and an elastomeric seal. The cylindrical member is seated in the polymeric ring seat. The cylindrical member includes a first end, a second end, and a cylindrical wall extending from the first end to the second end. The cylindrical wall defines an inner bore having a uniform inner diameter from the first end to the second end. The cylindrical wall has a non-uniform outer diameter from the first end to the second end. An outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical wall is in contact with an inner circumferential surface of the polymeric ring seat. The elastomeric seal surrounds the polymeric ring seat. The elastomeric seal is configured to hold a relative position of the cylindrical member with respect to the polymeric ring seat.

A valve device includes a valve body; a cylindrical member provided in an accommodation recess and communicating with the first flow path; a valve seat supported by the cylindrical member; a seal member interposed between the periphery of the opening of first flow path on the bottom surface of the accommodation recess and the lower end portion of the cylindrical member; an annular plate which is flexible, air-tightly or liquid-tightly fixed to an annular support portion formed on the inner peripheral surface of the accommodation recess, air-tightly or liquid-tightly fixed to an annular support portion formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical member and has a plurality of openings communicating with the second flow path; and a diaphragm that moves between an open position at which the diaphragm does not contact the valve seat and a closed position at which the diaphragm contacts the valve seat.

A valve assembly for use in a fracturing pump including a valve member movable into and out of engagement with a valve seat body. The valve seat body includes an outer surface and an inner surface, the inner surface forming a fluid bore extending between a first end and a second end of the valve seat body. The body further includes a seating surface extending radially from the inner surface and facing the valve member, the seating surface having a recessed area. An insert is disposed in the recessed area forming at least a portion of the inner surface and at least portion of the seating surface. The valve seat body first end has a diameter different from a diameter valve seat body second. The difference between diameters allows the valve seat body outer surface to be supported by the fluid passageway.

Provided are sealing member for electronic valve, electronic valve with sealing member, electronic valve with static sealing structure, and electronic valve with double sealing structure. The sealing member has inlet end connected to valve core and outlet end connected to connecting pipe; the electronic valve includes valve body, valve cover, flow rate control device, and the connecting pipe; the flow rate control device includes the valve core; the valve body is provided therein with valve core accommodating chamber and connecting pipe connection port; the valve core is disposed in the valve core accommodating chamber; the connecting pipe is welded to end of the connecting pipe connection port on the valve body. The electronic valve further includes the above sealing member, and the sealing member is located between the connecting pipe and the connecting pipe connection port. Meanwhile, the electronic valve includes static sealing structure and/or double sealing structure.

A plug for a fluid valve has a stem extending along an axis between a first end and a second end, a tip secured to the first end of the stem, a plug body mounted to the stem toward the second end relative to the tip, and a valve seat between the tip and the plug body. The valve seat has a sealing surface that extends past an outer perimeter of the tip and is sized to engage a valve ring of the fluid valve, the valve seat defining an annular space that permits radial movement of the valve ring relative to the axis of the stem to align with the valve ring as pressure is applied to the valve seat.

A device for controlling the flow of fluid through a conduit from an upstream side of the device to a downstream side of the device. The device includes a valve seat mounted on a casing that defines a valve aperture, a mounting member arranged on the downstream side of the valve aperture; a valve member mounted on the mounting member. The valve member is arranged to selectively open and close the valve aperture thereby controlling the flow of the fluid through the valve aperture. A seal retaining member is arranged adjacent the valve seat and, with the valve seat, defines a seal retaining groove. A compliant seal within the seal retaining groove seals the valve aperture when the valve member is moved to close the valve aperture.

The present invention relates generally to a drone umbrella device primarily comprised of an umbrella, at least one drone and a mobile application. The at least one drone is attached to the umbrella, such that the umbrella can hover over the top of a user. The umbrella is comprised of a telescoping handle assembly that has a detachable handle. The detachable handle has an internal GPS transmitter that communicates with a receiver on the drone, such that the drone follows the location of the detachable handle. In this manner, a user can retain the detachable handle, while the device hovers over the user as he or she sits, walks, runs, etc.
