Abstract:
A fluid control valve unit includes: a fluid control valve including a sleeve in a bottomed cylindrical shape defining an axis, and a spool slidably accommodated in the sleeve in a direction of the axis; a cylindrical passage member including an inner peripheral surface to which the sleeve is fitted, a receiving part for receiving an end of the sleeve in the direction of the axis, and an annular groove recessed from the inner peripheral surface; and a snap ring including a notch with a predetermined gap and fitted in the annular groove to be capable of restricting the fluid control valve accommodated in the passage member from falling off in the direction of the axis and to be capable of discharging fluid flowing through a discharge passage formed in the passage member.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a control valve system for use with a gas grill, and more particularly to a fuel shut off device that is attached to the fuel supply to turn it off, if the integrated timing device is allowed to accrue time equal to the preset amount of time set. A multi-segment tactile dial enables a user to feel the dial and set the appropriate time increment without having to look at the dial.
Abstract:
A valve member driving device capable of bidirectional movement includes: a main body with two gas chambers, a first gas-inlet opening, a first gas-inlet channel, a second gas-inlet opening, and a second gas-inlet channel; a first piston rod with a first flow passage; a second piston rod with a second flow passage; a first guide rod extending into the first flow passage at one end and having a gas socket and a gas hole in communication with the gas socket; a second guide rod extending into the second flow passage at one end and having a gas-guiding flow passage; a valve cylinder fixedly provided on the first piston rod and having a valve-cylinder gas chamber, an advance channel, a withdrawal channel, and a valve-cylinder piston rod; and a valve member fixedly provided on the valve-cylinder piston rod.

Abstract:
A digital water timer may include a main body, a water valve, a locating base, a driving base, and a timer. The main body has a water inlet and a water outlet, and a valve tube protrudes from a lateral side of the main body. The water valve connected to the main body is controlled by the timer to achieve on/off operation of channels inside the main body. The locating base is secured on the main body, and the driving base is adapted to have rotation relative to the locating base and be secured at a specific position after rotated. The timer installed in the driving base comprises a display panel and an operation interface which are exposed externally for operation. The driving base with the timer is rotated relative to the locating base, and the display panel is adjusted as needed to provide an optimal view for operation.
Abstract:
It is to realize a valve remote control apparatus capable of driving and controlling, with wireless signals, an air motor configuring an automatic switch to be attached to a manual valve.A valve remote control apparatus is configured to mechanically connect, to a manual operating portion 11 of an existing manual valve 10, an output shaft 21a of an air motor 21 using an air pressure as a drive source, and to remotely control the manual value 10. The valve remote control apparatus includes a solenoid valve (operating valve 53) operated by an operation signal transmitted and received wirelessly between a contact information terminal portion 51 and a contact information operating portion 52. The air pressure for driving and rotating the air motor 21 is supplied via the solenoid valve (operating valve 53).
Abstract:
The present invention provides a smart water flow apparatus capable of maintaining a desired level of water in a reservoir while having an override or shutoff feature that is programmable to address variations in water pressure or to prevent flooding.
Abstract:
A fluid flow monitor, typically for water, includes the combination of a fluid conduit including a magnet displaceable within the conduit when fluid flows therethrough, an electric circuit having a power supply, a magnetic sensor switch positioned in the electric circuit located adjacent to the conduit and positioned at a predetermined distance from the magnet when the magnet is not displaced and a timer connected to the electric circuit. When the magnet is displaced the predetermined distance, the magnetic sensor switch closes the electric circuit activating the timer and when the magnet is not displaced to the predetermined distance, the magnetic sensor switch opens the electric circuit deactivating the timer.
Abstract:
An electronic faucet has controller is configured to selectively open and close a valve to provide fluid flow through the valve and a passageway of the faucet. The controller is programmed to monitor a maintenance condition of the electronic faucet and to selectively open and close the valve to generate a fluid flow pattern through the passageway to provide an indication to a user of an existing maintenance condition.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention include a system and method for controllably delivering hydrocarbon gas to a hydrocarbon gas-fueled device. According to one embodiment, a valve having an open state and a closed state is used to control the flow of hydrocarbon gas from a pressure vessel to a supply line. A hydrocarbon gas sensor detects airborne hydrocarbon gas and generates a signal in response. A controller automatically moves the valve to the closed state in response to the signal from the hydrocarbon gas sensor while the valve is in the open state. The controller automatically releases liquid sealant to the supply line in response to a continued signal from the hydrocarbon gas sensor after at least attempting to move the valve to the closed state.
