A steam regulation valve, includes: a first portion, a second portion, and a flow path defined by the first portion and the second portion. The second portion is movable relative to the first portion to decrease a cross-sectional area of the flow path in response to an increase in pressure applied to the second portion.

A vent valve flow fuse includes a valve cap with a valve cap cavity defined by one or more valve cap interior surfaces. The vent valve flow fuse includes a valve body with a valve body cavity defined by one or more valve body interior surfaces. The vent valve flow fuse includes a poppet configured to at least partially fit within the valve cap cavity and the valve body cavity. The vent valve flow fuse includes a spring configured to fit within the valve body cavity and to generate a resistive force against the poppet. The poppet is in a first position when fluid having a first amount of fluid pressure enters the valve cap cavity from a vent valve and engages the poppet. The poppet is in a second position when fluid having a second amount of fluid pressure enters the valve cap cavity and engages the poppet.

A driving tool includes a chamber to store compressed air and a relief valve in communication with the chamber. The relief valve includes an inflow channel communicating with the chamber and an outflow channel with a larger diameter formed at a downstream side of the inflow channel. A valve stem moves along the inflow channel. An O-ring to seal the inflow channel is attached in an annular groove of the valve stem. Air release channels are defined in the valve stem. Each air release channel includes an inlet that opens to an inner circumferential chamber and an outlet that opens to the outflow channel to allow the compressed air to be discharged from the inner circumferential chamber to the outflow channel when the O-ring moves toward the outflow channel and moves beyond the inflow channel due to the internal pressure of the chamber.

A non-return valve with twin plugs is connected to a fluid reservoir and equipment that can receive a small overflow quantity essentially in the gaseous state from the reservoir. This occurs when the primary valve is open. In the case of a larger overflow essentially in the liquid state, the openings are switched over to evacuate the overflow to another outlet branch of the non-return valve, without it being transferred to the equipment. The invention is useful in an oil lubrication circuit, in which a hypothetical fuel leak into the oil could cause the oil reservoir to overflow into the non-return valve and in which a significant flow of liquid to the equipment must be avoided; oil outlet through the other branch of the outlet can remain in a reservoir provided with a drain system.

A main stage in-line pressure control cartridge. The cartridge selectively controls flow in-line in the same direction as opposed to directing flow at a 90 degree angle like other cartridges. A tubular poppet can be mounted into a body and has a sliding control sleeve that can expose radial holes in the poppet to an open position and to seal the radial holes in a closed position. The cartridge can be configured in numerous ways in order to serve many functions, such as a pressure relief valve, a counterbalance valve, and a flow control valve. The cartridge can also be configured to allow or prevent reverse flow.

A pressure relief valve includes a valve body including a monitored pressure inlet leading to a monitored pressure region, a piston having a shear seal bore and a surface facing the monitored pressure region, a vent passage and a the shear seal assembly comprising a seal plate having a sealing surface thereon, and the shear seal assembly includes a sealing surface facing the seal plate and having a first annular area, and a first surface having an annular surface area at least twice as large as the first area of the sealing surface, the first surface facing away from the first area, and a biasing seal in contact with the first surface.

The present disclosure discloses a pressure reducing valve and a pull-out faucet. The pressure reducing valve comprises a valve body, a piston and an elastic member, the valve body comprises a connector, the connector comprises a water passing hole penetrating from an inner side to an outer peripheral surface of the connector, a sealing member encompasses the connector, the piston comprises a bottom wall and a peripheral wall extending upward from a periphery of the bottom wall, an inner peripheral surface of the peripheral wall comprises a discharging section and a sealed section disposed between the discharging section and the bottom wall, the discharging section defines one or more discharging passages, the peripheral wall of the piston is configured to slidably encompass an outer side of the connector, and the elastic member configured to drive the piston to be separated from the connector.

A pressure relief valve includes a valve body including a monitored pressure inlet leading to a monitored pressure region, a piston having a shear seal bore and a surface facing the monitored pressure region, a vent passage and a the shear seal assembly comprising a seal plate having a sealing surface thereon, and the shear seal assembly includes a sealing surface facing the seal plate and having a first annular area, and a first surface having an annular surface area at least twice as large as the first area of the sealing surface, the first surface facing away from the first area, and a biasing seal in contact with the first surface.

An oil pump assembly is provided for a vehicle lubrication system including a pumping device, the oil pump assembly presenting an outlet leading from the pumping device, and an inlet leading to the pumping device, the oil pump assembly further including a relief valve presenting a valve chamber arranged to communicate via an outlet relief passage with the outlet, and to communicate via a relief deposit passage with a relief deposit location, the relief valve further including a plunger located in the valve chamber, the plunger being movable between a closed position, in which communication between the outlet relief passage and the relief deposit passage is prevented, and an open position, in which communication between the outlet relief passage and the relief deposit passage is provided, the oil pump assembly further including a control valve for controlling the relief valve, and a control passage adapted to provide a communication between the outlet and the control valve via the valve chamber.

A relief valve includes a housing including an internal flow passage through which a working fluid flows, and a relief port discharging the working fluid from the internal flow passage, and a valve body including a first pressure-receiving portion a second pressure-receiving portion receiving pressure with a pressure-receiving area that is larger than a pressure-receiving area of the first pressure-receiving portion, and a first recessed portion formed at the second pressure-receiving portion at an opposite side relative to a pressure-receiving surface of the second pressure-receiving portion and including a closed-end cylindrical shape. The relief valve includes a biasing force adjustment mechanism including a spring of which one end is held at the first recessed portion, a support portion retaining the other end of the spring and including a closed-end cylindrical shape, and a motor adjusting a rotational angle and causing the support portion to reciprocate.
