Self-Contained Hydraulically Controlled Relief Valve
The present disclosure provides a hydraulically controlled pressure relief valve without needing a hydraulic power unit. The valve maintains the accuracy of a hydraulically controlled valve by providing a self-contained closed hydraulic system built into the pressure relief valve. For safety, the valve can be kept open to call attention to the cause of the pressure relief valve activation, yet be easily reinstated into full service without replacing expendable components such as shear pins and rupture pins. The invention offers a pressure relief valve with accuracy, cost, and ease of use.

Pressure relief valve for railroad tank cars
A relief valve configured to allow content held within a vessel to be release under pressure is disclosed. The relief valve is configured to expose a release outlet when pressure within the vessel exceeds a release pressure, and the relief valve is further configured to maintain exposure of the release outlet after pressure within the vessel falls below the release pressure.
INTERLOCKED SINGLE FUNCTION ACTIVATION VALVE
An interlocked single function activation valve for hydraulic systems is disclosed. The hydraulic valve prevents unsafe tie-down or safety override situations by requiring the safety mechanism to be reset each time the hydraulic system is used. The hydraulic valve includes an interlock spool that moves to an extension position when the hydraulic system is de-pressurized and then re-pressurized while the control lever is engaged (i.e., tied down). When the interlock spool is in the extension position, it prevents the system from reaching a working pressure, thereby forcing a reset of the control lever before the system can reach working pressure.

Device for equalizing a pressure difference for an aircraft
A device that equalizes an aircraft pressure difference has a separating wall, fixable to the aircraft, and a decompression valve. The wall is for fluidically separating first and second spaces, and has a flow opening that fluidically connects the spaces. The valve closes the flow opening. A securing element on the valve or wall enables a release of the valve when a pressure gradient between the spaces is exceeded, such that there is a fluidic connection between the spaces. The receiving element on the wall or valve is connected to the receiving element. The securing element has a rotary element and fixing elements. The rotary element is rotatably mounted about a rotational shaft. The rotary element is receivable in the receiving element. The fixing elements non-rotatably fix the rotary element beneath the predetermined pressure gradient. At least one of the fixing elements is a spring.

Pressure equalising device
A pressure compensation device for compensating an internal pressure in a housing of an electrochemical device includes: at least one gas-permeable membrane for gas exchange between an interior of the housing and surroundings of the electrochemical device; and a valve body that can be transferred from a home position resting on a valve seat into a use position remote from the valve seat, the valve body including a gas throughflow opening that is sealed by the gas-permeable membrane.

High pressure pump
A high pressure pump includes a pressurization portion, a discharge portion, a body portion, a valve member, an urging member, valve hold member and a limiting portion. The body portion includes a relief passage, an inlet, a valve seat, and an outlet. The valve member includes a large diameter portion and a small diameter portion. The small diameter portion is located between the valve seat and the large diameter portion and has an outer diameter smaller than an outer diameter of the large diameter portion. The valve hold member surrounding and holding the large diameter portion. The limiting portion capable of limiting a motion of the valve hold member in a separation direction. According to this, a pressure in a fuel rail from extraordinarily increasing again after the relief valve is opened once.
