A gas check valve device having a header, at least one check valve plunger, at least one orifice that provides a first path for a small amount of gas to pass through the at least one check valve plunger when a respective compression spring presses the check valve plunger against a check valve seat to form an air tight seal, and a common gas passage connecting the check valve plunger with a common outlet. The gas check valve device provides a second path for a small amount of gas to pass through the orifice of the at least one check valve plunger in a reverse direction and a larger amount of the gas to pass between the at least one check valve plunger and the check valve seat when the gas pressure compresses the respective compression spring to separate the check valve plunger from the check valve seat.

Hybrid flow and pressure regulation

A gauge for a hybrid pressure and flowgauge regulator includes first indicia and second indicia. The first indicia provides an indication of a flow rate of a gas exiting an outlet of the hybrid pressure and flowgauge regulator when the gas exits with a pressure below a gauge threshold pressure. The second indicia provides an indication of the pressure of the gas exiting the outlet of the hybrid pressure and flowgauge regulator when the pressure of the gas exiting the outlet is above the gauge threshold pressure.

FLOW REGULATING VALVE AND COMPRESSOR

A flow regulating valve and a compressor with the flow regulating valve are disclosed. The flow regulating valve includes: a valve seat in which a passage is formed to allow fluid to enter; a guide member protruded outwards from the valve seat; a piston which is disposed on the outside of the valve seat, forms a fluid inlet with the valve seat, and is capable of being reciprocated along the guide member; and a biasing member biasing the piston in a direction away from the valve seat. A force exerted by the incoming fluid on the piston is opposite in direction to a biasing force exerted by the biasing member on the piston. The piston is able to be moved to different positions under the action of different forces to form fluid inlets of different widths with the valve seat, thereby controlling the mass flow rate of the incoming fluid (especially liquid). With the technical solutions of the present invention, the flow rate of the fluid entering the compressor can be effectively adjusted with a simple structure and low cost.
