摘要:
A fluid dispensing system (10) includes a pump assembly (40) for pressurizing a low cost container (20), the container (20) non reversibly connected to a coupler module (100). A wand assembly (80) is releasably connected to the coupler module (100). A discharge conduit (60) fluidly connects the wand assembly (100) to the container (20). The wand assembly (100) includes a grip body (82) slidable relative to the discharge conduit (60) between a retracted storage position and an extended operable position. The coupler module (100) is connected to a skirt (120), the coupler module (100) including a mating surface (102) for releasably retaining the grip body (82). The coupler module (100) is injection molded and The container (20) is a blow molded pressure vessel. As a blow molded component, the container (20) is relatively inexpensive compared to an injection molded container of a comparable size.

A valve unit (100) capable of being implanted in a patient and having adjustable performance settings, such as pressure settings and/or flow control, to regulate passage of a bodily fluid. A casing (103) defines a port (102) for the bodily fluid, and a valve mechanism (140) positioned at the port includes a movable valve member (144). The valve unit further includes a rotor (120) disposed at a first location in the casing and having an axle which turns about an axis of rotation. The rotor defines a plurality of arcuate, radially flat cam surfaces (122). Each cam surface occupies an arc about the axis of rotation. A spring arm (130) unit is disposed at a second location in the casing having a cam follower arm (132) in slidable contact with the cam surfaces of the rotor and having a resilient spring element applying a closing effect with the movable valve member to establish a performance setting for the valve unit. Sufficient rotation of the rotor to change the cam surface in contact with the cam follower alters the closing effect with which the valve member moves relative to the port and thereby alters the performance setting of the valve unit.

摘要:
Axial displacement between two components (10, 17) of a valve occurs as a result of relative rotation through the cooperation of helical ramps (29, 31). Preferably another pair of helical ramps (30, 38) is provided concentric with the first but angularly offset 180° with the result that when the components (10, 17) are at maximum axial separation the residual contact between the ramps of each pair (shaded areas in Fig. 5e) will be on oposite sides of the axis x of rotation and prolongation, thus preventing tilting of the component (17) out of axial alignment with the component (10). In other constructions more than two pairs of ramps are employed. In the embodiment illustrated the ramp means of the invention replaces a screw-thread to provide adjustment of the loading of a valve spring and permits the use of more economical manufacturing and assembly techniques.

A cylinder valve includes: a single valve member in the form of a spring loaded shuttle, the spring exerting a pressure on the shuttle in a valve-closing direction; a valve seat against which the valve member bears in its valve-closing position; a guide defining a channel in which the shuttle is able to travel; a stop member able to be translated in the channel into and out of a position in which the stop member holds the valve member in its valve-closing position; and a valve body which is engaged by the guide, the guide being able to be translated into a position in which the shuttle cannot be brought to bear against the valve seat.

A valve apparatus of a valve system includes a long-sized elastic member a base end portion of which is fixed and a front end portion of which is brought into contact with a valve element and a movable member capable of moving in B1 and B2 directions actually linearly along a longitudinal direction B of the elastic member between both end portions of the elastic member and having a fulcrum portion for flexing the elastic member in C direction between the both end portions of the elastic member. The movable member is constituted by a slider linearly moved in accordance with a mover of a linear step motor element or rotation of a rotor of a rotary type step motor element.
