Abstract: A poppet valve assembly includes a cage with a cage fluid passage and a seat with a seat fluid passage. A poppet valve member includes a head and is movable between a closed position with the head engaging the seat and an open position with the head spaced from the seat. The valve member is stemless and is guided by a guide fin assembly including a plurality of guide fins slidably engaging the seat passage.

Abstract: A valve assembly is provided which includes a seat structure and a cage structure. A valve member is movable between open and closed positions and includes an upstream side adapted to engage the seat structure with the valve member in its closed position and a downstream side connected to the cage struture. The cage structure includes a manifold communicating with the valve member downstream side. A pilot valve is provided for selectively venting the manifold to an area of low fluid pressure whereby the valve member is held in its open position.

Abstract: A screw locking arrangement comprises an article having a threaded aperture with an enlarged counterbore. A slot is positioned in the side wall of the counterbore and extends through the top surface of the article. A screw is threadedly engaged in the aperture and includes an enlarged head with a slot disposed in the outer marginal surface thereof. A deformable lock member is positioned in the counterbore and has a wall between the counterbore side wall and the marginal surface of the screwhead, and the wall is bent by a suitable tool into both of the slots, thereby positively locking the screw and the article together without indexing the same.
