FAILSAFE ACTUATED VALVE
A failsafe valve system configured to bring the valve to a predefined state (e.g., fully opened, fully closed) if the actuator fails (e.g., loss of power). The failsafe system of the present disclosure is energy efficient and reliable.
SUCTION DEVICE
A suction device may include a suction channel, a first valve, and a second valve. The suction channel may include a first suction portion and a second suction portion disposed opposite one another in a transverse direction. The first valve may be arranged in the first suction portion. The first valve may include a first valve seat and a moveable first valve body. The second valve may be arranged in the second suction portion. The second valve may include a second valve seat and a moveable second valve body. When a transverse acceleration is equal to or greater than a predefined transverse acceleration, one of the first valve and the second valve may close while the other one of the first valve and the second valve remains open. When the transverse acceleration is less than the predefined transverse acceleration, the first valve and the second valve may both be open.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VIBRATION RESISTANT ROLLOVER VALVE
A system includes a fuel delivery system of an engine, the fuel delivery system including a vent tube, walls providing a seat and forming a cavity at an opening of the vent tube, a floor of the cavity, the floor including a convex portion protruding from the floor, and a stopper in the cavity for sitting in the seat during a rollover situation.
Systems for monitoring volatile fuel system components
A fuel system is provided that includes a fuel tank, a heat detector, and a control circuit. The digital heat detector is disposed in proximity to the fuel tank. The control circuit is coupled with the digital heat detector and is configured to detect that a thermal event has occurred. The fuel system is configured to implement an emergency countermeasure in response to the detection of the thermal event.
BREATHER CHECK VALVE
A vent apparatus is described for providing filtered air intake and rollover protection for a fuel tank. The apparatus may include a housing configured to be coupled with the fuel tank, the housing including at least one air intake port and at least one air exhaust port. The apparatus may include an air intake filter disposed within the housing and configured to receive and filter air from the at least one air intake port. The apparatus may include a rollover protection valve disposed adjacent to the housing and configured to be located inside the fuel tank when the housing is coupled with the fuel tank, the rollover protection valve coupled with the at least one air exhaust port. The rollover protection valve may include a chamber and a plug configured to impede the flow of fuel from the fuel tank into the at least one air exhaust port.
Flow-blocking safety valve to prevent explosion of portable gas container
There is provided a flow-blocking safety valve to prevent an explosion of a portable gas container, wherein, when the portable gas container overheats during use and the temperature rises above a predetermined level, a bridge hold supporting a pin of the safety valve melts and thus a pin or ball securely supported in the bridge holder becomes free to move to close a flow channel through which the gas flows, thereby blocking the gas discharge and preventing an accident occurring when the gas container bursts by overheating.
BACKPACKING STOVE HAVING TIP VALVE
A tip valve and a cook system incorporating same that automatically stops the flow of gas to a burner when tipped over and that automatically resets when disconnected from the fuel canister to allow the flow of gas to resume when righted and reconnected are provided. The tip valve includes a ball bearing freely moveable between a fuel canister actuator pin and a tip seal within a bore having two different diameters at each end thereof. The transition between the two diameters forms a taper that may be continuous forming a smooth tapered bore, or discontinuous formed by at least one counter bore. The automatic resetting is provided without the use of a mechanical pin or member.
ELECTRIC WORKING MACHINE
An electric working machine may include: an electrical component; a first space in which the electrical component is disposed; a partition wall separating the first space from a second space different from the first space, the partition wall including a first communication opening communicating the first space and the second space; and a first one-way valve disposed at the first communication opening.
Leak detection and prevention device
A liquid leak detection and prevention device comprised of a leak detection apparatus positioned near a water-dependent appliance to monitor for moisture due to a leak, and a leak prevention system connected to the leak detection apparatus in fluid communication with a water pipe attached to the water-dependent appliance and positioned in-line with the water pipe is disclosed.
REGULATOR WITH ORIENTATION VALVE
An orientation valve, in accordance with various embodiments, is disclosed herein. The orientation valve may comprise a first coupling portion, an insert portion, a second coupling portion, an internal cavity, and a piston. The insert portion may have a first inlet aperture and a second inlet aperture. The second coupling portion may be disposed between the first coupling portion and the insert portion. The internal cavity may be coupled to the first inlet aperture and the second inlet aperture. The piston may be disposed within the internal cavity. The orientation valve may be configured to block fluid flow from a compressed fluid source when an evacuation system is in a stored position. The orientation valve may be configured to fluidly couple the compressed fluid source and the evacuation device when the evacuation system is in a deployed position.
