摘要:
A compound check valve device comprising a housing having a pair of oppositely disposed inlet ports and an outlet port therebetween, a hollow, two-part valve carrier reciprocably operable in the housing between the inlet ports for selectively communicating the inlet ports, singly or concurrently, to the outlet port, and a spring disposed between the two parts of the valve carrier for biasing respective valves mounted on the valve carrier toward respective valve seats surrounding the two inlet ports so that, in the absence of pressure at the inlet ports, the valve carrier assumes a neutral position in which the inlet ports are cut off from the outlet port, and when pressure is supplied to the inlet ports, the valve carrier assumes a position according to the relative pressures at the inlet ports to communicate either both inlet ports or one inlet port to the outlet port.
摘要:
A control valve device for a railway car having an arrangement for changing the axial position of a variable area piston in order to adjust the output pressure of a piston valve assembly in accordance with a high or low speed of the railway car. The axial position of a supply valve seat is set in accordance with a high or low speed signal to in turn set the axial posiiton at which the piston assembly, including the variable area piston, assumes a lap condition.

A railway car pressure control valve having an adjustable middle body member. An air supply chamber connected to a source of compressed air and an output chamber connected to an output passage. An exhaust chamber opened to the atmosphere. An air supply valve spring biased toward a valve seat. A hollow exhaust valve rod having a valve tip located adjacent the air supply valve. A control piston including a control piston diaphragm is attached to the inside wall of the main valve body. A balance piston including a balance piston diaphragm attached to the inside wall of the main valve body. A plurality of first and second radially extending fins carried by the balance piston and the inside wall of the main valve body, respectively. A protective member interposed between the balance piston diaphragm and the radially extending fins to prevent wave distortion of the balance piston diaphragm and preclude increase resistance to movement of the main piston.

A load dependent valve for railway cars including first and second springs, each having one end contacting a balance piston. A first spring adjusting mechanism for adjusting the compressive force of the first spring and a second spring adjusting mechanism for adjusting the compressive force of the second spring. A valve seat disposed in an air supply passage which is connected between an air supply chamber and an output chamber. An air supply valve is biased to seat on the valve seat. An exhaust valve rod having a valve tip facing the air supply valve and fitting the air supply passage and has an exhaust air bore, one end opens at the valve tip and the other end opens at the exhaust chamber. The control piston including a control piston diaphragm fixed to the main valve body and fixed to the control piston. The balance piston includes a balance piston diaphragm which is fixed to the main valve body and also is fixed to the balance piston main body. A plurality of first fins fixed around the piston main body on the low pressure side along the direction of movement facing its upper edges to the diaphragm of the same piston, while the side opposite to that receiving the air pressure of at least one piston of the two pistons is set at a pressure lower than the minimum value of the air pressure. A plurality of second fins located in the main valve body and placed between the first fins, and in which the first surface which connects the upper edges of the first fins on the side of the diaphragm intersects with the second surface which connects the upper edges of the second fins on the side of the diaphragm.
摘要:
A diaphragm type valve device comprising a housing having a pair of valve chambers separated by a diaphragm piston and connected to respective fluid pressure input ports, oppositely disposed valve seats fixed in the housing in facing relation to each side of the diaphragm piston and connected to respective output ports, a pair of valve members reciprocably disposed in a central bore in the diaphragm piston and being axially biased in opposite directions by a spring compressibly installed in the central bore between the valve members, one or the other of the valve members being seatable on one or the other of the valve seats when the diaphragm piston is axially displaced by dominating pressure acting on one or the other side thereof, and stop rings concentrically fixed in the central bore adjacent the respective ends thereof for limiting axial displacement of said valve members by the spring to a spaced-apart distance somewhat greater than the fixed axial distance between the valve seats. A spring for biasing the diaphragm toward one of the valve seats, if desired, may be compressibly disposed in one of the valve chambers between the diaphragm piston and an end wall of the housing.
摘要:
An actuating cylinder having a fluid pressure operated piston member connected by a friction member to a push rod to which a brake shoe, or the like, may be attached as the output member. A force transfer lever is arranged between the piston and push rod to transmit the piston force to the output member with mechanical advantage only after the friction connection is overcome by resistance at the push rod, such as occurs by engagement of the brake shoe with the wheel of a railway vehicle.
摘要:
An elastomeric sleeve is inserted in the hole in the cock body which has multiple passages for the fluid. A plug, which may be positioned to connect selected passages, is placed within the sleeve in the hole. Either the contacting surfaces between the hole and sleeve or the rubbing surfaces between the sleeve and plug are tapered. A spring, seated on the base of the body or a plug flange, exerts upward pressure on the sleeve to assure tight contact between adjacent surfaces to eliminate fluid leaks.
摘要:
A filter arrangement for a moisture-removal device used in compressed air systems in which an inner filter adapted to remove water from the air is encircled by an outer filter that is adapted to remove oil from the air. A space between the inner and outer filters is provided to accommodate accumulation of the filtered-out oil with a valving arrangement provided in the area of oil accumulation that is operative in response to a pressure differential when the regeneration phase of operation is initiated to concurrently discharge the accumulated oil.
摘要:
A force transfer mechanism including a force lever through which an input force is transmitted to an output member with mechanical advantage only after the output member encounters sufficient resistance to overcome a friction connection between an input member and the output member indicative of the input member having moved from a retracted position to an operative position. The resultant movement of the input member relative to the output member in the absence of the frictional connection therebetween allows the input member to engage the end of force lever that is normally spaced-apart therefrom and to accordingly drive the output member with a force corresponding to the input force multiplied by the ratio of the force lever only in the operative position of the input member.
摘要:
A change-over valve device having a pair of oppositely disposed control pressure chambers subject to respective control pressures from two independent pressure input systems and operable for diverting the lower control pressure to a delivery chamber so as to increase the degree of the pressure normally delivered from the delivery chamber by an amount corresponding to the degree of such lower control pressure.
