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.

A multi-control valve device includes: a valve block including a plurality of valve holes; a plurality of spools movably housed in the plurality of valve holes in a one-to-one correspondence; one or more attachment parts provided on the valve block; and a plurality of solenoid valves provided on the one or more attachment parts in a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of spools and each of which reduces a primary pressure, outputs a secondary pressure to a corresponding one of the plurality of spools, and moves the spool. The valve block includes a primary pressure supply passage through which the primary pressure is supplied to each of the plurality of solenoid valves.

A pipe stopper assembly includes a stopper fitting defining a fitting channel, the stopper fitting configured to be mounted to a pipeline; and a pipe stopper positioned in the fitting channel and comprising an expandable stopper body and a pressure assembly, the expandable stopper body configurable in an expanded configuration and a contracted configuration, the pressure assembly configurable in an open configuration and a closed configuration; wherein, in the open configuration, the expandable stopper body is biased to the expanded configuration, and in the closed configuration, the expandable stopper body is biased to the contracted configuration; and wherein, in the expanded configuration, fluid is prohibited from flowing through the fitting channel, and in the contracted configuration, fluid is permitted to flow through the fitting channel.

A flow controllable type suction and irrigation device includes: a handle having an installation space therein; a cannula provided with a conductive tube and an insulating protective tube, the conductive tube extending in a forward direction of the handle to be inserted into the abdominal cavity of a patient and being coupled to an electrode for surgery, the insulating protective tube being disposed to surround the conductive tube; and a suction supply unit provided to the handle and supplying an irrigation fluid to the cannula or suctioning blood or contaminants from the abdominal cavity of the patient through the cannula.

A subplate mounted (SPM) valve includes a valve body having pilot port, a piston configured to be actuated by fluid from the pilot port, a first control chamber and second control chamber each formed in the valve body and fluidicly isolated from the pilot port, a first flow restrictor fluidicly disposed between the first control chamber and the second control chamber and configured to restrict flow in at least one direction between the first control chamber and the second control chamber, a cage coupled to the valve body and having a supply port, a return port, and a work port, and a spool slidably engaged with the cage and configured to selectively restrict flow between the supply port and the return port by actuation of the piston.

A device for controlling a flow rate and expanding a fluid in a fluid circuit. The device is formed with an enclosure and a valve element arranged inside the enclosure. The valve element which is arranged movably in a linear movement in the direction of a longitudinal axis relative to the enclosure has a sealing surface and a control area formed at a first end face of the valve element and arranged adjacent to the sealing surface in the axial direction. The sealing surface is formed as a lateral surface of a straight circular cylinder with a constant outer diameter. An outer diameter of a surface of the control area corresponds to the outer diameter of the sealing surface. The control area has throughflow apertures and at least one control aperture. The valve element in the control area is formed with a substantially hollow circular cylindrical-shaped wall.
