AUTOMATIC DEFLATOR VALVES WITH VORTEX-LIKE AIR FLOW WITH IMPROVED TIRE VALVE STEM CONNECTION
20230039845 · 2023-02-09 ·

An improved deflator valve is described herein. The deflator valve has a main body with one or more ports, one or more vents, or port or vent slots for introducing air into or relieving pressure from within the main body in a vortex, circular flow. The deflator valve also includes a piston having an O-ring disposed around an outer circumference of the piston. The O-ring of the piston and the ports and vents are effective for reducing noise and deflation time and improving accuracy and ease of adjusting a pressure setting. The deflator valve can further include a dual or variable rate spring that can achieve an extensive destination pressure range. The deflator valve can also include a threadless lead in, fewer valve stem threads, or a lock chuck for enhanced valve stem attachment methods.

09803747 · 2017-10-31 ·

A fluid controller comprising a housing separating an interior of the housing from an inflatable bladder is disclosed, the fluid controller including a plurality of valves fluidly coupling the interior of the housing to the inflatable bladder through a respective opening in the housing, a pump located at least partly within an interior of the housing, wherein the plurality of valves and respective orifices are configured to provide a fluid path between the interior of the housing and the inflatable bladder during inflation of the inflatable bladder, and wherein a valve and respective orifice is biased open to provide a fluid path between the interior of the housing and the inflatable bladder for fluid release.

Aviation valve with status indicator
11408513 · 2022-08-09 · ·

The invention relates to a shut-off valve for controlling flow of a pressurised gas. The shut-off valve comprises a body defining a passage extending between a gas inlet channel and a gas outlet channel, and a sealing element arranged to, in a first position, close the passage, and in a second position, open the passage to allow gas to flow between the gas inlet channel and the gas outlet channel through the passage. The invention also relates to a method for controlling flow of a pressurised gas by means of a shut-off valve.

Apparatus, systems and methods for managing fluids comprising a poppet valve having multiple springs
11092985 · 2021-08-17 · ·

Apparatuses of the present invention create a backward pressure in fluid traversing a pipe, wherein the backward pressure within the pipe provides compression to the fluid effectively compressing entrapped gas bubbles within the fluid, allowing more accurate water meter measurements. The apparatus comprises a poppet valve having multiple springs to minimize or eliminate spring-binding caused by off-center hydraulic force during use.

Safety valve

The present application relates to a safety valve, in particular a safety valve which can be released by manual operation and automatic operation. The safety valve comprising: valve body having an inlet, an outlet and a releasing port; and valve core being movable within the valve body between a close position in which the inlet communicates with the outlet and an open position in which the inlet communicates with the releasing port, the valve core comprises a resilient member which biases the valve core to the close position; wherein the position of the valve core can be manually or automatically controlled such that the valve core is able to switch between the close position and the open position, fluid flows from the inlet to the outlet in the close position and flows from the inlet to the releasing port in the open position.
