Abstract:
Provided is a steam valve (1) equipped with: a stop valve (2) capable of stopping/releasing the flow of steam when driven so as to open/close; an governing valve (3) that is provided coaxially in the interior of the stop valve (2), and that controls the flow volume of the steam when driven to open/close in the same direction as the opening/closing of the stop valve (2); and a first guide part (11) that is provided between the stop valve (2) and the governing valve (3) so as to separate the stop valve and the governing valve in the radial direction, and that guides at least the governing valve in the opening/closing direction.
Abstract:
In the embodiment, a steam valve device has, a steam regulating valve, and an intermediate flow path connecting the main steam stop valve and the steam regulating valve. The main steam stop valve and the steam regulating valve respectively have: casings where flow paths are formed between horizontal inlet ports and outlet ports opened downward and valve seats are arranged in the flow paths; valve elements movable up and down in the casings; and valve rods for driving the valve elements. The valve rods extend upward, and they are pulled off upward in a direction to outside of the casings when opening the flow paths. The intermediate flow path changes the flow direction of main steam flowing out of the outlet port of the main steam stop valve from downward direction to horizontal direction to guide the main steam toward the outlet ports of the steam regulating valves.
Abstract:
A throttling valve assembly has an outer housing that is sealed. An actuator is connected to a pressure balanced shaft that extends into the housing to operate a plurality of linkages that can rotate blades in tandem. With the surrounding housing sealed, the shaft penetrations of the blade support shafts no longer need seals or a purge system to supply process gas during times of reduced pressure in situations with the blades nearly closed. A pressure equalization system has balance passages internal to the housing to allow flow from higher pressure zones to lower pressure zone of the process gas so as to avoid creation of a condition that can draw air into any zones of reduced pressure in the housing.

Abstract:
A valve assembly (100) has an inlet port (104) and an outlet port (106) linked by a fluid conduit (102) for allowing fluid to pass therebetween. The valve assembly includes a stop valve having a spindle (112) that is centrally mounted within the valve assembly and a valve head (108) mounted on the spindle (112). The stop valve spindle (112) is operable to move the stop valve head (108) between an open position, in which the inlet port (104) is in communication with the outlet port (106), and a closed position, in which the outlet port is isolated from the inlet port. Also provided is a control valve having at least one spindle (114) that is eccentrically mounted within the valve assembly and a valve head (110) mounted on the at least one control valve spindle (114). The at least one control valve spindle is operable to move the control valve head (110) for graduated flow control of fluid passing along the fluid conduit (102) The stop valve head (108) is nested within the control valve head (110) when the stop valve is in the open position.
Abstract:
A valve for sterile sampling of a liquid sample from a container comprises a valve body (1) with a. valve chamber (2). The valve is moreover provided with a sample inlet (6) in the valve chamber (2), a first valve seat (7), a first valve plug (5a) for closing the sample inlet (6) through abutment against a first valve seat (7), an outlet (8) from the valve chamber (2), a cleaning inlet (9) in the valve chamber (2) for disinfection fluid, a second valve seat (10) and a second valve plug (5b). The outlet (8) is positioned between the two valve seats (7, 10), and the second valve seat (10) and the second valve plug (5b) are positioned in such a manner that the second valve plug (5b) through abutment against the second valve seat (10) cuts off the inflow of disinfection fluid in an area (2b) of the valve chamber (2) at the sample inlet (6).
Abstract:
A faucet assembly includes a first handle attached to rotate a fluid control member and includes a first groove. A second handle is attached to move the fluid control member along a central axis and includes a second groove aligned with the first groove. A retainer ring disposed is movable within the first and second grooves between a release and a secure positions. A biasing member within the second groove biases the retainer toward the release position and a threaded member within the first handle biases retainer toward the secured position. The setscrew moves the retainer from the release position by moving a portion of the retainer from the second groove to the first groove within the first handle.
Abstract:
A valve with an integral means for bleeding internal pressure prior to separation of a bonnet for the valve from its engagement with the valve body, provided by a bore through the valve body. This allows the internal pressure of the valve to equalize with atmospheric pressure prior to complete disassembly of the bonnet from the valve body. The bore through the valve body also serves as a leak detector, by providing a path for fluids passing through the valve to leak to the exterior of the valve body in the event of a failure of the seal between the bonnet and the valve body, which can readily be detected by passersby upon inspection of the exposed end of the bore at the exterior of the valve body.
Abstract:
An unloader includes a first volume bottle with a cavity formed therein of predetermined volume, and a port in the forward end with a plug operably mounted to selectively open and close the port. A second volume bottle is stacked on the first volume bottle and has a port in the forward end with a plug operable to open and close the second bottle port. The second bottle is arranged such that the second port will fluidly connect the first and second bottles. Actuators are connected to the plugs in the first and second bottles to selectively open only the first bottle or both bottles together, to thereby provide a two stage internal clearance for the reciprocating compressor cylinder.
Abstract:
A main valve mechanism for opening and closing a main flow path between a first port and a second port has a main valve body, a large-diameter first piston for opening the main valve body, a main pressure operating chamber for driving the first piston, and first spring means for closing the first piston. An auxiliary valve mechanism for opening and closing an auxiliary flow path has an auxiliary valve body, a small-diameter second piston for opening the auxiliary valve body, an auxiliary pressure operating chamber for driving the second piston, and second spring means for closing the second piston. The main pressure operating chamber and the auxiliary pressure operating chamber are connected to each other through a connecting hole. There are such relationships between piston diameters of both the pistons and repulsing forces of both the spring means that the second piston is actuated by lower fluid pressure than the first piston.
