A hot and cold water switching valve includes a valve body, a switching valve element, a switch valve element and a thermal sensing valve element, wherein the valve body has an inflow channel, a recovery channel and an outflow channel; one end of the three channels is communicated in the valve body; the switching valve element is provided in such a position where the three channels are communicated with each other and used for switching the outflow mode; the switch valve element is provided in the outflow channel and used for opening or closing the outflow, and the thermal sensing valve element is provided in the recovery channel and used for closing the channel when the water temperature is higher than the set temperature; and a sprinkler used for automatic outflow of cold water, comprising a sprinkler body and the above-mentioned hot and cold water switching valve.

A hydraulic valve assembly (1) with a housing (18) and with a spool (2) which is rotatable in the housing (18). The spool comprising a pressure supply orifice (3) and at least one clutch actuating orifice (4, 5) which is connectable to a clutch actuating cylinder (6, 7). The spool (2) comprises a pressure release orifice (8) which is arranged at the spool (2) so that the pressure release orifice (8) is closed by rotational movement of the spool (2) while the clutch actuating orifice (4, 5) is opened by such rotational movement. The invention further relates to a clutch actuating device with such a hydraulic valve assembly (1) and a corresponding marine propulsion system.

A coolant control valve device may include a plurality of coolant passages through which a coolant passes; a valve including a plurality of valve wings, wherein each of the valve wings is disposed at an inlet of each of the coolant passages, respectively and has different heights from each other; and a driver moving the valve in a vertical direction thereof, wherein the valve opens and closes some or all of a plurality of inlets with a difference in time, depending on a movement range of the valve.

A distribution valve of an in-floor pool cleaning system is provided. The distribution valve includes a housing having an inlet port and a plurality of outlet ports. A turbine within the housing rotates about a shaft in response to fluid flowing through the inlet port. The turbine is releasably coupled to a gear mechanism, and the gear mechanism is releasably coupled to a distribution valve disk, the disk having an aperture therein. As the turbine rotates, the gear mechanism also rotates and drives the rotation of the disk around the shaft. The rotation of the disk sequentially places the aperture over one of the plurality of outlet ports, thus allowing fluid to flow out of the outlet port over which the aperture is positioned, but restricting fluid flow into any of the outlet ports that are covered by the disk.

A gate valve is comprised of a gate movable between open and closed positions within a valve body, and gate having defined through it the gate an equalizer port or passageway between opposite sides of the gate with fixed side walls. The equalizer passageway being is opened and closed by an internal gate. The internal gate is in a close fitting engagement with each of a pair of opposing valve seats mounted with the gate and is shiftable by a carrier that does not constrain movement of the internal gate as it sits between the valve seats.

A bypass valve having an adjustable flow resistance for a device through which a fluid medium flows. The valve includes a seat and a body which is biased closed, and which is movable in the opening direction by a fluid medium pressure difference between the inflow and the outflow side of the valve when the pressure difference exceeds a threshold. A bypass flow path connects the inflow side to the outflow side through the seat. The bypass valve includes a screen disposed in the bypass flow path. The valve body has two different open positions that depend on the fluid medium pressure difference. The entire cross-section of the bypass flow path is covered by the screen in a first valve body open position with a lower pressure difference, and a screen-free bypass flow path cross-section is exposed in a second valve body open position with a greater pressure difference.
