摘要： A thermal control valve includes a plug, a valve seat apparatus, and a valve member positionable within a cooler line block with offset channels for an outflow line between a transmission and a transmission fluid cooler. The plug and valve seat apparatus are kept at a fixed positioned relative to each other by a first spring. A second spring is positionable within a connecting passage between the outflow line and an inflow line. The valve member is positioned between the second spring and the valve seat apparatus to move between a closed configuration to cool fluid, and a cooler bypass position to bypass the transmission fluid cooler when outflow line pressure becomes too high.

摘要： A diverter valve which includes a valve body, an inlet, a plurality of outlets, an internal cavity to which the inlet and the outlets are connected, and a valve member which is movably positioned in the cavity. The valve member includes a through bore which is configured to connect the inlet with a corresponding one of the outlets for each of a plurality of operative positions of the valve member. In operation of the diverter valve, the valve member is movable between its operative positions to selectively connect the inlet with any one of the outlets.

摘要： Disclosed is a three-way valve (1) with an A-port (1A), a B-port (1B), and an AB-port (1AB), a valve body (11) and a regulation body (12). The three-way valve (1) further includes an A-sided valve seat (3A), an AB-sided valve seat (3AB) and an auxiliary valve seat (3′), wherein the A-sided valve seat (3A), the AB-sided valve seat (3AB) and the auxiliary valve seat (3′) are each arranged inside the valve body (11) and contact the regulation body (12) in a sealing manner. The A-sided valve seat (3A) is arranged at the A-port (1A), the AB-sided valve seat (3AB) is arranged at the AB-port, and the auxiliary valve seat (3′) is arranged opposite to the B-port (1B), with the regulation body (12) between the B-port (1B) and the auxiliary valve seat (3′).

摘要： A seal arrangement for a fluid valve has: a first sealing element configured to bear sealingly against a valve housing of the fluid valve; a second sealing element configured to bear sealingly against an adjustable, rotatable, valve body of the fluid valve; and an elastically deformable intermediate piece arranged, axially, between a first wall of the first sealing element, which faces the second sealing element, and a second wall of the second sealing element, which faces the first sealing element, so as to elastically space apart the first and second sealing elements. In at least one axial portion of the intermediate piece, an axial cross section of the intermediate piece has a first radial lateral surface and an opposite second radial lateral surface. The first radial lateral surface is convex and the second radial lateral surface is concave, planar or less convex than the first radial lateral surface.

摘要： A valve device includes: a housing having a communication passage forming a part of a path from an inlet to an outlet; and a valve body disposed to be rotatable about a valve axis in the housing. The valve body has a peripheral wall portion facing a communication passage port at one end of the communication passage, and adjusts an opening area of the communication passage port according to its rotation position. The peripheral wall portion has a closure portion capable of fully closing the communication passage port, and openings arranged apart from each other in the circumferential direction. The plurality of openings include a large opening and one or more small openings smaller than the large opening. The centers of the small openings are axially offset.

摘要： A ball drain wye strainer valve assembly includes a wye strainer located adjacent to a T-ball valve within a unitary body. The ball drain wye strainer valve assembly includes an additional valve member. The combination of the valve members permits the flushing of the wye strainer screen from either upstream or downstream. A drain is also incorporated to allow for the system draining, flushing, or air-purging during the initial installation and subsequent maintenance of the screen and wye strainer.

摘要： Multiport valve with outlets transverse to the inlet useful as a coker switch valve. A sealed lower sleeve assembly provides semi-trunnion ball support. An upper part of the outlet seat recesses is formed in the bonnet, and a lower part in the valve body, which together bias a resilient member to load the seats, independently of end connections. Before bonnet assembly, when the ball is rotated to face a body outlet, there is sufficient space in the seat recesses to insert the seat, slide the seat onto the ball, and then insert the resilient member. When all the seats and resilient members are in place, engagement of the bonnet biases the upper part of the resilient members to load the seat. In valve operation, an enlarged ball outlet bore can straddle two outlet ports and maintain process media flow during switching. Also, methods of assembling, operating, and servicing the valve.

摘要： Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for proportional gas mixing. A method for mixing gas may include receiving, at a modified ball valve, a first gas via a first gas input port of the modified ball valve, and a second gas via a second gas input port of the modified ball valve. The method may also include coupling a motor control device with the modified ball valve. The method may further include operating the modified ball valve via the motor control device by adjusting a position of the modified ball valve. In addition, the method may include releasing a gas mixture of the first gas and the second gas through a gas output port of the modified ball valve.

摘要： A valve includes a housing, a ball rotatably coupled to the housing, a handle coupled to the ball, a ball retainer coupled to the housing, and a radial seal. The housing includes an inlet, an outlet, a passage between the inlet and the outlet, and a lower housing bore. The ball includes a body, a lower trunnion, and an opening through the body. The handle is operable by a user to rotate the ball in the housing to align the opening with the passage of the housing to open the valve. The ball retainer retains the ball in the housing. The ball retainer includes a threaded portion and a shaft portion in the lower housing bore. The radial seal is between the shaft portion and the lower housing bore.

摘要： The present subject matter discloses a system and method of winterizing and de-winterizing a structure in order to prevent waterlines from freezing and getting damaged. The system includes electronic valves connected to waterlines i.e., main waterline and drain line. The electronic valves include electronic ball valves. The electronic valves communicatively connect to an electronic device. A user operates the electronic device to winterize and de-winterize the structure. Winterizing includes closing the electronic valve on the main waterline that supplies water into the structure and opening the electronic valve on the drain line causing the water to drain out. De-wintering includes closing the electronic valve on the drain line and opening the electronic valve on the main waterline to supply water back into the structure. Winterizing prevents the waterlines from freezing and getting damaged in cold weather conditions.
