摘要： Methods, devices, and systems are described for a system including a rotation motor configured to rotate a valve seal holder, the valve seal holder having at least one pass-through interface and closed-off interface, a camshaft coupled to the valve seal holder, and a controller communicatively coupled to the rotation motor and the camshaft. The controller is configured to separate at least one of the pass-through interface or the closed-off interface of the valve seal holder from the seat configured to interface with the external system. The controller is configured to rotate, using the rotation motor, the valve seal holder until at least one of the pass-through interface or the closed-off interface is aligned with the seat. The controller is configured to compress the at least one of the pass-through interface or the closed-off interface against the seat to create a seal over the seat.

摘要： A valve assembly comprising a housing having a cavity and including a port forming an opening in the cavity, and a piezoelectric assembly disposed at least partially in the cavity. The piezoelectric assembly comprises an elongated piezoelectric layer, a sealing pad, and an electrical contact. The electrical contact is configured to receive a voltage signal, and when the piezoelectric assembly receives the voltage signal at the electrical contact the piezoelectric layer deforms to cause the sealing pad to selectively seal or unseal the port.

摘要： A reservoir refill system for an electronic vaping device includes a refill container and a reservoir. The refill container contains a pre-vapor formulation. The refill container includes a body, an opening in the body, and a first interlocking ring including at least one groove or at least one protrusion therein. The reservoir is configured to contain a pre-vapor formulation and includes a reservoir body, an opening in the reservoir body, and a second interlocking ring including at least one groove or at least one protrusion therein at an opening of the reservoir. The first interlocking ring is configured to mate with the second interlocking ring so as to release the pre-vapor formulation from the refill container to the reservoir.

摘要： A valve operating device includes a defining a transverse axis extending from a first end to a second end. A motor is positioned within the housing. The motor includes a motor output shaft configured to drive at least one gear disposed within the housing. The at least one gear is configured to rotate a key extending substantially perpendicular to the transverse axis to engage a valve. A motor controller unit drives the motor in either a clockwise or a counter-clockwise direction at a variable motor speed to deliver up to a torque limit. A user interface comprises a first motor activation throttle configured to drive the motor in the clockwise direction at a user-controlled speed when activated. A second motor activation throttle drives the motor at a user-controlled speed in the counter-clockwise direction when activated.

摘要： A system is provided for an aircraft. This aircraft system includes a heat exchanger, a lubricant flow circuit and a bypass valve. The lubricant flow circuit includes an inlet passage, an outlet passage, a heat exchanger passage and a bypass passage. The heat exchanger passage extends through the heat exchanger. The bypass passage bypasses the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger passage and the bypass passage are fluidly coupled in parallel between the inlet passage and the outlet passage. The bypass valve is fluidly coupled inline along the lubricant flow circuit. The bypass valve is operable to regulate lubricant flow through the bypass passage. The bypass valve includes a rotary electric motor.
