Synchronous switch valve core with voltage stabilizing function

A synchronous switch valve core with a voltage stabilizing function, comprising: a valve core housing (1), a valve core base (2), a flow regulating module, and a balancing hydraulic module. The flow regulating module is capable of cutting off a cold/hot water path before water enters a pressure balancing module, thus preventing high-temperature water from immersing the valve core, preventing the building of lime scale, protecting the valve core, and extending the service life; moreover, water flow can enter the pressure balancing module only after flowing through the flow regulating module, thus preventing the channeling of hot and cold, and obviating the need to install a check valve at a water intake elbow. By means of an optimized design with respect to the parts of the synchronous switch valve core, the synchronous valve core is transformed from a switch capable only of regulating flow into a switch not only capable of regulating flow but also capable of synchronized switching, and also capable of balancing the pressures within two channels, thus transforming a product equipped with the vale core from a complex channel into a simple channel, and obviating the need for separately providing a balancing module part; a valve body is structurally simple, has a shortened water path, and is inexpensive.

Variable area bypass nozzle

A gas turbine engine includes a first duct, a second duct, and a bladder. The bladder is disposed in the first duct and communicates with the second duct. A first gas flow is capable of passing through the first duct and a second gas flow is capable of passing through the second duct. The bladder is adapted to receive a bleed gas flow from the second duct and inflate within the first duct, thereby decreasing an area in the first duct through which the first gas flow is capable of traveling.
