An evaporative emissions control system includes a first vent valve configured to selectively open and close a first vent, a second vent valve configured to selectively open and close a second vent, a fuel level sensor configured to sense a fuel level in the fuel tank, a pressure sensor configured to sense a pressure in the fuel tank, an accelerometer configured to measure an acceleration of the vehicle, and a controller configured to regulate operation of the first and second vent valves to provide pressure relief for the fuel tank. The controller is programmed to determine if a refueling event is occurring based one signals indicating the fuel level is increasing, the pressure in the fuel tank is increasing, and the vehicle is not moving, and open at least one of the first and second vent valves based on determining the refueling event is occurring.

Foot support systems include a fluid flow control system that facilitates movement of fluid into, out of, and/or within a sole structure and/or article of footwear, e.g., to change and/or control pressure in fluid filled bladder(s). The fluid flow control system includes: (a) a manifold body defining an internal chamber; (b) at least a first port in fluid communication with the internal chamber; (c) at least a first valve (including a first valve activator) controlling fluid flow through the first port; and (d) a movable cam at least partially within the internal chamber. Valve activator surface(s) on the cam interact with the valve activator(s) to selectively open and close valve(s) based on cam positioning.

A sectional lubricant distributor for distributing lubricant to at least one lubrication point, including a distributor body having an inlet opening for lubricant which is fluidically connected to at least one outlet passage, which opens into an outlet opening of the distributor body, a rotary valve is rotatably mounted in the distributor body and is adjustable between an open position of the rotary valve, in which the outlet passage is open in order to allow lubricant to pass through to the outlet opening, and a closed position of the rotary valve, in which the outlet passage is closed, an electromotive drive which is coupled to a control gear, including a control gearwheel having a control toothing section engageable with a toothing of the rotary valve to move the rotary valve between the open position and the closed position. Further, a method for distributing lubricant to at least one lubrication point.

A multi-way valve includes an outer casing provided with an internal cavity, at least one input to the cavity, at least one output from the cavity, the at least one input having sealing means, and an actuator adapted to cause the opening of the sealing means of the inputs. A cross-section of the actuator is smaller than a cross-section of the inner cavity.

A rotary valve includes a first ball valve including a first stem extending from a first proximal stem end to a first distal stem end outward from the first ball valve. The first stem including a first slotted opening extending from the first distal stem end into the first stem. The rotary valve includes a second ball valve including a second stem extending from a second proximal stem end to a second distal stem end outward from the second ball valve. The second stem including a second slotted opening extending from the second distal stem end into the second stem, wherein the second stem extends towards the first stem. The rotary valve includes a drive key located within the first slotted opening and the second slotted opening. The drive key extending from the first slotted opening of the first ball valve to the second slotted opening of the second ball valve to operably connect the first ball valve to the second ball valve. The drive key has a non-uniform thickness.

A switching assembly for diverting fluid flow can include a pair of chambers each having a three-way valve positioned therein. An actuator, which can include a lever and one or more gears, may be coupled with each three-way valve to allow an operator to divert flow through each three-way valve by means of the actuator. The switching assembly can be coupled with one or more pressure relief valves, allowing an operator to safely replace a pressure relief cartridge by diverting flow away from the corresponding pressure relief valve without diverting flow upstream or temporarily shutting off a fluid line.

A water path switching device includes a valve body, a rotating shaft, a rotating plate, a first valve core and a second valve core. The valve body is provided with a valve cavity, a water inlet, and at least two water outlets. The rotating shaft is rotationally connected to the valve body, and is provided with an outer end located outside the valve cavity and an inner end located inside the valve cavity. The rotating plate is arranged in the valve cavity and connected to the inner end of the rotating shaft so as to rotate with the rotating shaft. The first valve core is provided with a first sliding-contact part.
