A water control valve with offset valve core has a main body with a flowing slot, the circumferential wall of which is formed with a water inlet and outlet. An offset rotary valve core is configured offset inside the flowing slot and has a rotary shaft and a water stopping seat. The face of the water stopping seat faces the circumferential wall and has a sealing ring. When the water stopping seat rotates along with the offset rotary valve core and is aligned with the inlet, the sealing ring is pressed against the circumferential wall to close the inlet, thus forming the water stop mode. The rotary shaft and the circumferential wall of the flowing slot define a flowing space. The flow from the inlet must pass through the flowing space and exit through the outlet. A dialing component is used to connect and drive offset rotary valve core.

A motorised fluid metering valve includes an inlet pipe, a discharge pipe and a motor moving a piston that can move linearly between a closed position in which a distal end of the piston sealingly engages with a seat of matching shape, and an open position. The valve is configured to have a flow rate that varies continuously between the closed position and the open position depending on an axial position of the piston. The inlet pipe opens in a periphery of the discharge pipe, with a constant protuberance regardless of the position of the piston, the protuberance not extending radially beyond a barycentre of the discharge pipe. Also, the motor is a rotary electric motor moving the piston in translation.

A control valve has a body having an inlet and outlet, a valve seat between the inlet and outlet, a valve plug, and a cage adjacent the valve seat to provide guidance for the valve plug. The valve plug is movable between a closed position, where the valve plug sealingly engages the valve seat, and an open position, where the valve plug is spaced away from the valve seat. The cage has a solid, unitary circumferential wall having inner and outer surfaces and a plurality of passages formed through the wall. Each passage extends between the inner and outer surfaces and follows an arcuate, non-linear path from the inner surface to the outer surface.

A metering valve comprising a solenoid having: a coil mounted on a core; and an armature moveable axially with respect to the core and against a return bias in response to a current in the coil; a variable capacitor having a first plate mounted for movement with the armature and a second plate fixed with respect to the core. The metering valve comprises an electronic feedback loop which is used to adjust the current in the coil based on a feedback signal derived from of the capacitance of the variable capacitor. A reference capacitor may be provided having opposing third and fourth plates at a set separation. A valve body may house the solenoid, the variable capacitor and the reference capacitor.

In accordance with at least one aspect of this disclosure, a flow control device can include, a first plate having one or more windows defining a flow path therethrough, a second plate configured to abut the first plate, and an actuator operatively connected to one or more of the first plate and/or the second plate. The actuator can be configured to drive the first plate and/or the second plate relative to one another to enlarge or reduce the flow path through the one or more windows in the first plate.

Valve bodies and methods of manufacturing the same are disclosed. An example method of manufacturing a valve body includes forming a first duct extending from a first side of the valve body, forming a first wall in the valve body at least partially protruding from a surface of the first duct, the first wall defining a chamber, forming one or more openings in the first wall to fluidly couple the chamber to the first duct, and forming a second duct extending from a second side of the valve body opposite the first, the second duct fluidly coupled to the chamber.

A valve device having a valve housing (10, 54, 94, 166) and fluid ports (16, 18) disposed therein, which are connected to or separated from one another in a fluid-conveying manner by means of a valve piston (22) displaceable along its longitudinal axis (24) in its various travel positions, and having at least one latching device (26, 28) for latching the valve piston (22) in at least one of its travel positions, wherein individual latching means (30, 38, 170) of said latching device, when it is actuated by an external force, take latching positions spatially different from one another, which is characterized in that, with respect to the longitudinal axis (24) of the valve piston (22), the individual latching means (30, 38, 170) of the latching device (26, 28) take positions differing from one another both in the axial and in the radial direction in the individual latching positions.
