摘要： A device for preventing overfilling of containers, such as those intended to contain liquefied gases, includes a valve body in which a gas duct is defined and a closure. The closure is axially movable in the valve body away from and towards a valve seat in order to respectively open and shut off the gas duct. An actuator, capable of exerting a thrust, urges the closure away from the seat. The actuator includes a float, a cam mechanism and a lever mechanism. The cam mechanism exerts the thrust in an ascending phase of the float until a preimposed limit position corresponding to a maximum filling level is reached. The lever mechanism exerts the thrust in at least a first part of a descending phase of the float starting from the limit position.

摘要： A gauge assembly includes an indicator for providing an indication of an amount of fluid in a tank and a stop-fill assembly for stopping the flow of fluid flowing into the tank once the fluid reaches a particular level. The gauge assembly has a shaft that rotates as the fluid level changes in the tank. The indicator translates the rotational position of the shaft into a fluid level. The stop-fill assembly moves from an open position, where fluid can flow into the tank, to a closed position, where fluid is prohibited from flowing into the tank, depending on the rotational position of the shaft.

摘要： A system for determining a fluid level in a pressurizable container comprising is disclosed. The system includes a service valve having a set of wrench flats defining parallel flat surfaces, one of the wrench flats having a recess defined entirely within its flat surface, a stop-fill device interconnected with the service valve and operable to rotate a first magnet inside the service valve in proximity to the recess in proportion to the amount of fluid in the pressurizable container, and a dial assembly having a dial face and a pointer attached to a second magnet, the second magnet housed in a magnet protrusion on a side of the dial face opposite the pointer and operable to fit into the recess in the service valve such that the dial moves on the dial face proportionately to the degree of rotation of the first magnet inside the service valve. In one variation, a sensor placed in the recess or adjacent a throat of the service valve is electrically connected to a remotely located gauge for displaying a reading corresponding to the level of fluid in the container.
