  • Publication number: 20230375095
    Abstract: This invention relates to a multi-outlet valve, and the valve includes a valve seat, a valve body, and an inlet connector. By the cooperation of the valve seat, the valve body, a fluid-tight anti-leakage effect of the valve core relative to the valve seat can be achieved. By the cooperation of the valve seat and the inlet connector, a twist of the inlet connector relative to a fluid pipe and adversely affecting the service life of the fluid pipe can be avoided during the process of connecting the fluid pipe so as to achieve good structural functionality and stability.

  • Patent number: 11673791
    Abstract: A system and parts of a system that can be used to introduce fluid into a closed circuit. The system includes a valve having an inlet, an outlet, a flush inlet; a spool located in a valve body and coupled to a handle, and the spool can selectively, by the positioning of the handle, direct flow between the inlet, outlet, and flush inlet. The system also includes an uptake conduit comprising a valve connector that is configured to couple with the flush inlet, and a conduit, that is configured to allow fluid to flow therethrough. Additionally, the system has a system attachment having a system connector and a valve connector, and the uptake conduit and the system attachment are coupled to the valve.

  • Patent number: 11047494
    Abstract: An air admittance valve preventing mephitis overflow, having a main body with an air entry guide base defining an air entry guide; a pivot support; and a valve seat. A sealing valve group having a sealing valve body that defines a recess; a flexible member; a pivot housing; and a pivot. The valve seat is located about the air entry guide. The pivot is located in the pivot housing and the pivot support, and the pivot is located along, or adjacent to, the center of gravity of the sealing valve body. The flexible member is at least partially located in the recess and abuts the main body; and when the air admittance valve is closed, the sealing valve body abuts the valve seat.

  • Patent number: 10648752
    Abstract: A bypass system for a water heat exchanger is disclosed. The water heat exchanger has a water heat exchanger inlet attached to a feed valve and a water heat exchanger outlet attached to an exit valve. The feed valve and the exit valve are three-way bypass valves attached to a bypass line. When the feed valve and the exit valve are in the flow through position, fluid will flow into and out of the water heat exchanger. When the feed valve and the exit valve are in the bypass position, fluid will not enter nor exit the water heat exchanger, but fluid will flow through the bypass line.

  • Patent number: 7560084
    Abstract: A system for separating sulfur dioxide from a gas using an aqueous absorption liquid. The system includes a housing, an apertured plate, an outlet box, a distribution mechanism, a container, and a pump. The housing has an inlet and an outlet. The apertured plate is positioned between the inlet and the outlet and includes a lower side, an upper side, and apertures fluidly connecting the lower and upper sides. The outlet box includes a distribution mechanism that is arranged so that the absorption liquid draining from the outlet box contacts the gas from the inlet before the gas passes through the apertures in the apertured plate. The container contains the absorption liquid and is fluidly connected with the housing. The pump draws the absorption liquid from the container through the pump and through a conduit to the upper side of the apertured plate.

  • Publication number: 20060261312
    Abstract: Disclosed are quaternary ammonium salts containing non-halogen anions (e.g., quaternary ammonium carbonates, bicarbonates, and mixtures thereof) as anti-corrosive agents. The invention relates to a method for inhibiting the corrosion of metal surfaces by applying a composition containing one or more quaternary ammonium carbonate or bicarbonate. The disclosure is also directed to anti-corrosive coatings for metal substrates containing these compounds, to metal substrates having these anticorrosive coatings, and to aqueous cleaning solutions containing these compounds.

  • Publication number: 20060225663
    Abstract: A reptile housing structure allows users to assemble by themselves. It includes a bottom chest for housing breeding reptiles and amphibians and required goods, three side panels and a face panel to be coupled on the bottom chest, and an upper lid coupled on the upper edges of the three side panels and the face panel. This invention uses a small size glass and may be disassembled and packaged. The glass is less likely to be broken, thus can save cost. The package size also is smaller, thus can save transportation space and reduce transportation cost.
