    摘要: A digital camera facilitates remote visual inspection of alignment between a rotor plate and a track plate of a multi-position rotary valve. In some embodiments, a signal from the video camera is used as part of a feedback system that controls advancement of the rotor plate, to automatically align apertures in the rotor plate with apertures in a track plate. Some embodiments facilitate remote visual inspection of the condition of a seal sheet disposed between the rotor plate and the track plate, without disassembling the rotary valve. Some embodiments automatically measure remaining usable thickness of the seal sheet.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are embodiments of a valve assembly for providing selective flow communication between a plurality of fluid flow conduits. The valve assembly may comprise two valve members disposed coaxially in fluidly sealing contact and relatively rotatable to provide valving action of at least two port tracks. At least one valve member may comprise a fluid pressure loading means, and the fluid pressure loading means may span at least two port tracks. The valve assembly may further comprise a drive means for driving relative rotation of the valve members in order to enable cycled interconnection and fluid flow through the fluid flow conduits.

    摘要: A device is provided for use in analytical instrumentation that provides continuous transfer of a known molar quantity of gas from a source having an unknown gas mixture and varying pressure. In addition to the upstream and downstream paths of typical flow control devices, the device has a midstream path to introduce a carrier gas at a known elevated pressure. The device has at least three equal-volume ballast vessels and a valve arrangement to cycle the ballasts through at least three states: fill, equilibrate, and empty. The ballasts fill with the upstream gas, pressurize and equilibrate at the midstream pressure, and empty to the downstream path. The cycle of each ballast is timed in phased relationship to the other ballasts to keep the flow relatively uninterrupted; as one fills, another equilibrates, and another empties.

    摘要: A valve device may include: a shaft which has a shaft central axis; a stationary disk; a rotor; a housing which has a housing central axis and an opening; a housing cover which closes the opening; and a seal member. The seal member is eccentric with respect to the shaft central axis in conformity with the amount of eccentricity between the shaft central axis and the housing central axis. A valve device may include: a drive device; a shaft which has a shaft central axis; a stationary disk; a rotor; a housing which has a housing central axis and an opening; a drive device case which closes the opening and receives the drive device; and a seal member. The seal member is eccentric with respect to the shaft central axis in conformity with the amount of eccentricity between the shaft central axis and the housing central axis.

    摘要: A valve includes: a tubular pipe section, a first flat plate extending transversely to the pipe section inside the pipe section and secured to the pipe section, this first flat plate being pierced with a central orifice and with a plurality of peripheral orifices positioned circumferentially around the central orifice, a second flat plate extending transversely to the pipe section inside the pipe section and mounted with the ability to rotate inside the pipe section, the second plate having a plurality of orifices of which at least the shape and the spacing correspond to those of the orifices of the first plate, at least one support element supporting the second plate such that the at least one support element can pivot with respect to the first plate, and an adjusting system engaging with the second orifice plate in order to adjust the relative positions of the peripheral orifices.
