A spread faucet assembly, an installation kit, and an installation method are described herein. The spread faucet assembly has a spout assembly with a spout, a tailpiece, and at least one fluid inlet conduit. It also include at least one valve assembly having a shank, an fluid inlet conduit, a fluid outlet conduit and a valve cartridge, wherein the shank has an inner surface having a fluid receiving area in fluid communication with the valve cartridge and the fluid outlet conduit, the inner surface defines an opening in fluid communication with the valve cartridge and valve assembly fluid inlet conduit, and the valve cartridge is positioned in the opening. A connector is also included for coupling the at least one valve assembly fluid outlet conduit with the at least one spout assembly fluid inlet conduit. A self-turning nut assembly is also provided having a nut with an outer surface and a tightening sleeve having an outer surface with at least one outwardly extending projection for securing the nut to a fluid supply connection.

An apparatus and method for mounting and inflating tires is described that is suitable for quickly sealing the beads of a tire to the rim of a wheel. The present invention delivers a high volume of pressurized air to an interior of a tire through a nozzle. The apparatus of the invention is particularly well suited for tire changing machines and tire mounting subsystems. The apparatus includes a tire changing station, an air supply controller, and a nozzle capable of delivering a high volume of pressurized fluid into an interior of a tire through a valve stem hole of the wheel rim.

A drain trap U-bend which includes a molded housing for a re-usable disinfecting tablet dispenser (FIG. 1). The disinfecting tablet dispenser contains a disinfecting tablet (FIG. 4), which is released into the U-bend molding (FIG. 6: showing the tablet inside the housing molding) by a spring loaded tension device (FIG. 9: Showing the whole device including u bend, housing, rubber spur, and indicator). The tablet is stabilized within the housing of the dispenser by twin toothed rubber seals. (FIG. 10: Showing the sealant mechanism and that the water level is at the bottom sealer and with additional sealer higher up insuring no infections). The tablet is held in place by an upper ribbed rubber spur (FIG. 5). The dispenser is made water-tight by rubber O-ring that deforms to seal the branch between the dispenser and the molded housing of the U-bend.

Disclosed embodiments of the invention include methods and systems for upgrading an existing irrigation system to increase its sensing and control capability without requiring extensive rewiring. A controller module is installed between an irrigation controller and a zone valve and physically proximate to the irrigation controller without disturbing most of the existing wiring between the irrigation controller and the zone valve. A field module is installed between the controller module and the zone valve without disturbing most of the existing wiring between the irrigation controller and the zone valve. The controller module and field module are the communicatively coupled primarily using the existing wiring. The controller module may encode commands transmitted to the field module and/or decode encoded data transmitted from the field module. The field module may encode data transmitted to the controller module and/or decode encoded commands transmitted from the controller module.

In one featured embodiment, a sleeve for a valve includes a sleeve body surrounding a center axis and defined by an overall length extending from a first end to a second end. The sleeve body has a central bore extending from the first end to the second end. The central bore has a first surface portion comprising a piston contact surface that is defined by a first inner diameter, wherein the piston contact surface is configured to slide against a piston to be received within the central bore. In one example, a ratio of the overall length to the first inner diameter is between 3.51 and 3.63.

Methods and an assembly for manufacturing a fluid distribution system are provided herein. The method includes providing a first distribution line configured to channel a fluid in a first direction and coupling at least one internal support member to an outer surface of the first distribution line. The at least one internal support member includes a plurality of support legs extending radially outward therefrom. The method also includes aligning a second distribution line concentrically with and circumscribing the first distribution line. The second distribution line is configured to channel the fluid in an opposite second direction. The method further includes coupling the plurality of support legs to an inner surface of the second distribution line.

A method and apparatus for securely fastening a pipe collar or a bracket to a riser pipe of a boiling water reactor (BWR) jet pump assembly. A pipe plug assembly includes an angled pipe plug that acts as a wedge to expand a bushing assembly as the pipe plug is drawn into the overall pipe plug assembly. Expansion of the bushing assembly allows a tight tolerance to exist between an outer diameter of the pipe plug and an inner diameter of the collar/bracket and riser pipe. Expansion of the bushing assembly allows a straight hole to be match drilled into the collar/bracket and riser pipe, thereby avoiding a more complicated tapered hole to be drilled into the collar/bracket and riser pipe. An ensuing tight fit between the pipe plug assembly, the collar/bracket and the riser pipe mitigates vibration of components and minimizes leakage to acceptable levels for use in the flooded environment of the annulus region where the jet pump assembly exists in the BWR.

A compression system and method of manufacturing a compression system are provided. The compression system includes a compressor, and a tank rotatably coupled with the compressor and configured to receive a compressed fluid therefrom. The compression system further includes a sheave configured to receive a hose, with the sheave being coupled with the tank such that the sheave and the tank are rotationally fixed relative to one another and rotatable with respect to the compressor.

A drain valve allows for drainage of fluids while preventing backflow of gases from a drainage system through the drain valve. A drain valve can have a first, sealed position in which a component of the valve seals an opening through the valve and a second, open position in which the component of the valve is separated from the opening to allow a fluid to drain through the valve. When the fluid has drained through, the component of the valve can return to the closed position. The valve can include a pressure relief conduit to help equalize pressure across the valve and permit unrestrained draining of fluid through the valve.

A method for reducing a release of environmental contaminants through a thief hatch is described. The method involves a step of securing a drainage conduit to a storage tank to divert environmental contaminants from a top of a storage tank to a contaminant capture area below. A further step involves positioning a riser on the drainage conduit toward the top of the storage tank. A final step involves mounting a thief hatch at a remote end of the riser.
