Abstract: A cut-off valve assembly for use with a toilet tank, includes a float within the toilet tank, a water retaining float guide within the toilet tank which allows the vertical travel of the float, the water retaining float guide having weep holes below the lowest travel of the float. The weep holes slowly release the retained water when the water in the tank is below the weep holes, a magnet within the toilet tank, affixed to the bottom of the float, and a magnetically activated cut-off valve for cutting off the water flow to the toilet tank when activated by the magnet. The magnet will activate the magnetically activated cut-off valve when the float is at the lowest travel. A preferred form of the cut-off valve assembly also includes a stem affixed to the float and extending downward from the float. The magnet is affixed to the bottom of the stem, and the magnet is affixed to the float through the stem. In a preferred form, a magnet housing is affixed to the bottom of the stem. The magnet is secured within the magnet housing, and the stem is affixed to the magnet through the magnet housing. In such an arrangement, a guide shaft is located within the water retaining float guide, for guiding the vertical movement of the magnet housing.

Abstract: A fill valve assembly for a toilet tank which reduces the fluid noise associated with filling of the tank. The fill assembly includes a fill tube mounted within the tank for delivering water. A fill housing is mounted to the upper end of the fill tube and includes a fill valve operably connected to a float. The float will open the valve when the water in the tank drops below a predetermined level and shuts off the valve when the fluid reaches the level. The interior of the housing includes structure for forming a laminar fluid flow out of the valve which reduces the fluid noise associated with filling the tank.

Abstract: A fill valve for a water storage tank includes a riser assembly, a valve housing mounted on an upper end of the riser assembly, and a pilot operated diaphragm valve mounted in the valve housing. A float housing is connected to the valve housing. A combination float and float arm has a first end pivotally connected to a valve housing cap for opening and closing a pilot orifice in the valve housing cap. A second end of the float arm is connected to the float. The float is located in the float housing which has an inlet opening for allowing water to spill into the float housing so that the float rises upwardly and the first end of the float arm fully seals off the pilot orifice. The first end of the float arm has a central arm and a pair of flexible pivot arms that are laterally displaceable for engaging a pair of spaced apart fixed pivot pins on the valve housing cap.

Abstract: A leak preventing detent apparatus for a toilet flush valve assembly in which an inlet valve to a toilet flush tank is controlled by an inlet valve control device, and an outlet flush valve is controlled by a flush lever. The detent apparatus includes a follower member that is moved in response to movement of the flush lever at the initiation of a flush cycle, and a detent that is operative to prevent opening of an inlet valve except when a flush cycle is deliberately initiated. In a preferred embodiment, the detent member acts directly on the inlet valve to maintain it closed until a flush cycle is deliberately initiated. The detent member may be hydraulically damped to provide a timed delay of its movement into inlet valve closing position. Further, in some forms of the invention a primary inlet valve is provided upstream of the usual inlet valve that is controlled by an inlet valve control device, such as a float, and the detent apparatus effectively cooperates with the primary inlet valve to maintain it closed unless a flush cycle is deliberately initiated. In the preferred form of the invention, the leak preventing apparatus is capable of preventing inflow of water into a toilet flush tank regardless of the position or condition of the inlet valve control device, or the outlet flush valve from the tank, or the usual water inlet valve, unless the flush lever is operated to deliberately initiate a flush cycle.

Abstract: A low pressure delivery system for cryogenic liquids is disclosed, the system being capable of providing a stream of a single-phase cryogenic liquid at a substantially constant low pressure, in the range of about 1 psi. The system comprises a container into which a cryogenic liquid, from a high pressure source, is directed. The liquid in the container is maintained at a substantially constant level by an automatic filling mechanism. The liquid does not occupy all the space within the container, the remainder of the space being filled by gas evaporating from the liquid. This gas communicates, by a suitable conduit, with a pressure regulator valve. When the gas pressure exceeds a predetermined level, the valve opens, relieving the excess pressure. By thus placing an upper bound on the gas pressure, the system places an upper bound on the pressure of the liquid withdrawn from the container. The automatic filling mechanism of the system establishes a lower bound on the liquid pressure.
