CHECK VALVE
Check valves are described herein. A check valve includes an inlet body, an outlet body, a valve body, a valve member, and a wiping extension. The inlet body defines an inlet portion. The outlet body defines an outlet portion. The valve body is coupled between the inlet bod and the outlet body. The valve body defines a valve cavity. The valve cavity is in fluid communication with the inlet portion and the outlet portion. The valve member is disposed within the valve cavity. The valve member is configured to permit flow from the inlet portion to the outlet portion and prevent flow from the outlet portion to the inlet portion. The wiping extension extends from the valve body toward the valve member. The wiping extension is movable relative to the valve member to dislodge particulate from the valve member.
Valves including one or more flushing features and related assemblies, systems, and methods
Valve and related assemblies, systems, and methods may include a self-cleaning feature that may be configured to at least partially displace material from a portion of the valve. Such valves may be utilized in a pressure exchanger.
CHECK VALVE, REFRIGERANT PIPING SYSTEM HAVING SAME, AND ASSEMBLING METHOD THEREOF
A check valve is provided in a refrigerant piping line of a refrigerant piping system to restrict a flow direction of refrigerant. The check value includes a valve body movably disposed inside the refrigerant piping line in a longitudinal direction of the refrigerant piping line, a stopper coupled to a rear end of the valve body to limit a movement of the valve body, and an elastic member disposed between the valve body and the stopper and providing an elastic force to the valve body. The valve body may have at least one locking protrusion formed at the rear end thereof, and the stopper may have a corresponding locking slit. The locking protrusion may pass through the locking slit and then rotate relatively whereby the stopper can be fixed to the valve body.
VENTILATION COMPONENT
A ventilation component 1 includes a ventilation path 10 for allowing ventilation between an inner space 2u and an outer space 2s of a housing 2. The ventilation path 10 is a path for allowing ventilation between the internal space 2u and the outer space 2s when the ventilation component 1 is attached to an edge 2f. The ventilation component 1 includes a supporting portion 12, a gas-permeable membrane 11, a protruding portion 13, and a sealing member 14. The supporting portion 12 surrounds the ventilation path 10. The gas-permeable membrane 11 is bonded to the supporting portion 12 and closes the ventilation path 10 in a ventilatable manner. The protruding portion 13 is a part having a tubular shape, the part being arranged to protrude from the supporting portion 12 and surround one end of the ventilation path 10, the part being configured to be in contact with the edge 2f when the ventilation component 1 is attached to the edge 2f. The ventilation component 1 satisfies requirements 2.5≤Gs/Gt≤5.0 and 1.0≤{(Gs−Gt)/2}/Lt≤3.0.
Low shear control valve
A flow control device includes a stack of annular discs positioned in a flow path. Each disc includes fluid passageways extending between inner and outer perimeters of the disc, with each passageway defining a flow axis extending out of the disc and radially offset from a central axis of the discs. A plug is moveable relative to the discs between closed and open positions. In the closed position, a cylindrical section of the plug is positioned to block fluid flow through the annular discs. In the open position, the annular discs and a tapered section of the plug collectively define an annular vortex chamber. The fluid passageways in the annular discs and the tapered section of the plug collectively impart a rotational flow when the plug is in the open position and as fluid exits the annular discs.
Plate valve and method for operating same
An automatic plate valve having a valve seat, a valve guard, a longitudinal axis (L) and a valve element arranged between the valve seat and the valve guard and movable along the longitudinal axis (L). The valve seat includes an end face having with valve seat openings oriented towards the valve guard, and a plurality of passages, which have a fluid-conducting connection to the valve seat openings. The valve element includes sealing element interacting with the valve seat openings. Wherein some of the passages have a different distance to the longitudinal axis in a radial direction (R). The end face of the valve seat including a plurality of grooved recesses, forming valve seat openings, with passages open into the same recess, the passages forming a fluid-conducting connection to the valve seat opening. Some of these passages connected to the valve seat opening have different distances to the longitudinal axis.
Check valve insert defining an open position and check valves having same
Check valve inserts define a valve seat for an open position of a check valve and have an outer support seatable in an internal chamber of the check valve and have an inner annular ring spaced radially inward from the outer support by a rib that angles axially toward a central longitudinal axis to position an upper surface of the inner annular ring a distance axially beyond an upper surface of the outer support. Check valves have a housing defining an inlet port, an outlet port, and a chamber in fluid communication with the inlet and outlet ports, have the check valve insert seated with the chamber, and have a seal disc moveable within the chamber between the open position defined by the inner annular ring of the check valve insert and a closed position. The seal disc is translatable in response to a pressure difference across the seal disc.
Hydraulic oil filter system for a motor vehicle transmission
The invention relates to a pressure oil filter system for a hydraulic transmission, in particular for a motor vehicle transmission, comprising at least one oil pump which can be actuated as required and which has a pressure side and a suction side, a pressure line to a consumer and at least a first oil filter which is arranged at the pressure side of the oil pump in the pressure line, wherein means for damping pressure surges during intermittent operation of the oil pump are provided in the pressure line upstream of the first oil filter in the flow direction of the oil.
Adjustable medium diverter
A system for modulating delivery of a fluid medium includes an injector for injecting the fluid medium during an injection cycle, a delivery catheter including a conduit for delivering the fluid medium, a manifold disposed in a fluid medium flow path between the injector and the delivery catheter, and a pulsatile generator. The pulsatile generator is configured to apply a pulsatile force to the fluid medium defined by a plurality of duty cycles during the injection cycle, each of the duty cycles including a first pressure level and a second pressure level that is lower than the first pressure level.
Umbrella check valve
A check valve includes a housing that includes an inlet port, an outlet port, and a valve chamber. The inlet port extends from a ceiling of the valve chamber to an outer surface of the housing. The outlet port extends from a floor of the valve chamber to the outer surface of the housing. The check valve further includes a valve member supported within the chamber. The valve includes a valve head. When an upstream pressure is applied to the valve, the valve head is configured to deflect away from the ceiling of the valve chamber and unseal the inlet port. When a downstream pressure is applied to the valve, the valve head is configured to deflect away from the floor of the valve chamber and seal the inlet port such that the valve head conforms to a shape of the ceiling of the valve chamber.
