A multi-port rotary plug valve may be used in a fluid delivery system of a vehicle to control flow of coolant fluid between a radiator, an electric drive motor, a battery, vehicle electronics, and one or more bypass lines. The valve may include a valve body that has ports at two or more levels along a height dimension of the valve body and a plug assembly that is rotatably disposed in the valve body. In addition, the valve may include a single-piece, conical seal disposed between the valve body and the plug assembly that is free of seams or joints.

A rotary valve, comprising a valve housing with a valve chamber, wherein the valve chamber has a chamber wall in which at least two fluid openings are provided, wherein the valve chamber has a receiving opening on the end face side, wherein the valve chamber accommodates a valve core, wherein the valve core is provided with a channel structure which interacts with the fluid openings, wherein the valve core is supported in the valve chamber in a rotationally movable manner, wherein the valve chamber is formed in a conical shape.

A valve assembly for influencing operating fluid flows in a motorized vehicle, where the valve assembly includes: A valve housing with a main housing body and a housing lid, A fluid line arrangement with at least two fluid lines, A valve body configured as tapering along an actuating axis which is accommodated rotatably about the actuating axis between at least two fluid lines of the fluid line arrangement in such a way that through rotation of the valve body about the actuating axis, a flow-connection state of the at least two fluid lines proceeding in different spatial regions with each other is modifiable, and A pre-tensioning means arranged between the housing lid and the valve body which loads the valve body along the actuating axis,
wherein it is provided that between the valve body and the main housing body there is arranged a guide shell surrounding the valve body, where the valve body is loaded through the pre-tensioning means towards the guide shell along a first pre-tensioning force path, where the guide shell is loaded through the housing lid towards the main housing body along a second pre-tensioning force path.

An apparatus for sealing at least one hub bore of a multi-bore fluid hub associated with a wellhead assembly includes a plug body having a plug bore opening on an outer mating surface. A plug bore extends from a first end of the plug body to the plug bore opening. The plug body is selectively insertable into a hub housing of the multi-bore fluid hub. An insert is in engagement with the outer mating surface and is moveable relative to the plug body between an unengaged position, and an engaged position where the insert seals across one of the hub bores. A stem member is coupled to the plug body and is moveable to selectively rotate the plug body within the multi-bore fluid hub so that the plug bore opening aligns with one of the hub bores and the insert aligns with another of the hub bores.

A cross hole deburring tool which performs rotary cutting on a cross hole burr occurring on a cross ridgeline part between a through path and an inner circumferential surface of a spherically-shaped hollow part. A tool main body includes a tip part and a shank, and the tip part has a shape obtained by setting a diameter axis of a circle, setting an eccentric axis parallel to the diameter axis and away therefrom by a predetermined eccentric distance, setting a closed region in a bow shape formed of a line segment obtained by cutting the eccentric axis by the circle and a minor arc on the circle by defining this line segment as a chord, setting an outer surface shape of a bow-shaped solid of revolution formed by rotating this bow shape about the eccentric axis, and taking this outer surface shape as the shape of the tip part.

A stopcock, comprising a housing element defining a central bore and at least first, second and third ports; and a handle element which is selectably positionable relative to the housing element; at least one of the housing element and the handle element defining: a first fluid flow passageway communicating between two of the at least first, second and third ports; a second fluid flow passageway communicating between at least two of the at least first, second and third ports, and a fluid flow guide associated with the second fluid flow passageway, the fluid flow guide extending radially towards an inner facing wall of the central bore.

A rotary valve, comprising a valve housing with a valve chamber, wherein the valve chamber has a chamber wall in which at least two fluid openings are provided, wherein the valve chamber has a receiving opening on the end face side, wherein the valve chamber accommodates a valve core, wherein the valve core is provided with a channel structure which interacts with the fluid openings, wherein the valve core is supported in the valve chamber in a rotationally movable manner, wherein the valve chamber is formed in a conical shape.

The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system provided herein utilizes a crossover (X) valve that is selectively activated at the direction of the electronic control module (ECM) to mix the high temperature (HT) and low temperature (LT) circuits of the EGR system under certain predetermined operating conditions. Thus, HT circuit fluid (at engine temperatures) is selectively fed into the LT circuit fluid (at ambient temperatures) to heat certain LT circuit components that are normally cooled by the LT circuit before starting the low pressure (LP) EGR in certain cold cycles. When this heating is finished, the X valve is closed to provide normal HT circuit/LT circuit fluid separation. The X valve can be controlled using a rotational actuator or the like. To avoid exposing the LT circuit to the high revolution-per-minute (RPM) operating conditions of the HT circuit, a HT bypass mechanism is provided.

A rotary valve includes a valve body including an opening formed therein, a rotary component received within the opening of the valve body with the rotary component configured to rotate relative to the valve body about an axis of rotation thereof, and a sealing assembly including a hard sealing structure and a soft sealing structure disposed between the valve body and the rotary component. The hard sealing structure is formed from a substantially rigid material and is configured to sealingly engage the rotary component. The soft sealing structure is formed from a resiliently deformable material and is configured to sealingly engage the hard sealing structure and the valve body.
