摘要:
A valve manifold for connection into a fluid flow conduit and for connection to a sensor for sensing a fluid flow characteristic. The manifold has at least one body penetrated by a main passage having an inlet and an outlet for connection in-line with a main process flow conduit. The body has a sensor outlet port to which the sensor is connectable and a bleed port. A branch conduit in the body extends between the main passage, the sensor outlet port and the bleed port. The branch conduit has a bleed passage with the outlet bleed port. A first isolation valve in the branch conduit is disposed between the main passage and the sensor outlet port. A bleed isolation valve is disposed in the bleed passage between the main passage and the outlet bleed port.

A novel fluid delivery system includes a mounting panel, where the mounting panel includes channels that define the flow of fluid between any flow-control components mounted on the mounting panel. The mounting panel comprises a top plate and a bottom plate, and the channels are carved out of the underside of the top plate and are enclosed by the bottom plate. In a complex fluid delivery system having many fluid channels, the mounting panel may include one or more interior panels with additional channels carved out of the interior plates to accommodate all routing paths. The channels run in two or more directions to connect two or more gas/channel sticks together.

A modular manifold system is provided for interconnecting fluid components of a fluid system in a reduced area. The system is comprised of a one or more bridge fittings (50) having an internal fluid passageway which has an inlet end (62) in fluid communication with an outlet port (18) of a first fluid component (12), and an outlet end (64) in fluid communication with an inlet port (16) of a second fluid component (13). The bridge fittings (50) may be mounted within a channel of a backing plate (40) for structural support. An optional locator plate (30) may be utilized which is mounted over the ends (62,64) of the bridge fittings (50) in order to align the inlet and outlet ports (16,18) of the fluid components (17,17) with the inlet and outlet ends (62,64) of the bridge fittings (50). The bridge fittings (50) may also be mounted to the locator plate (30) in multiple directions forming multiple flow paths. Additionally, the bridge fittings (50) may be stacked to form multiple layers where bridge fittings (50) of one layer may be in fluid communication with bridge fittings (50) of another layer. The invention may further comprise seals provided in a recess between the fluid ports and the mating bridge fittings ends.

A hydraulic interface plate (14) is a generally flat plate that defines an upper surface (34) and a lower surface (36). An upper fluid routing channel (48) is formed in the upper surface (34) of the interface plate (14). Moreover, a lower fluid routing channel (56) is formed in the lower surface (36) of the interface plate (14). A fluid interface port (50) connects the upper fluid routing channel (48) to the lower fluid routing channel (56). The upper fluid routing channel (48) is configured to communicate with a solenoid fluid port (40) established by a solenoid assembly module (12). Also, the lower fluid routing channel (56) is configured to communicate with a transmission fluid channel (58) established by a vehicle transmission (18).
摘要:
The present invention discloses a hydraulic unit of an anti-lock brake system for vehicles having a housing (20) that is easily manufactured, whereby production efficiency is improved, and thus the manufacturing costs of the housing are reduced. The present invention also discloses a method of manufacturing the same. The hydraulic unit comprises a housing (20) having components that control braking oil pressure supplied to wheels of a vehicle, such as a plurality of valves (12,13), accumulators (14,17), and hydraulic pumps (15), mounted thereto, flow channels (29) formed in the housing (20), the flow channels being connected between the components, and a plurality of pipes connected to each other in the housing. The housing (20) is made of an injected resin material having a plurality of reinforcing members (30) that reinforce the strength of the parts of the housing where the components are mounted to the housing (20) and the pipes are connected to the housing inserted therein. Alternatively, the housing is made of an injected resin material having tube-shaped flow channel members (50) inserted therein, such that the flow channels are formed.
