Abstract: Described is an active check valve that uses electro-magnetic actuation for operation. The valve includes a plunger assembly having a magnet in a sealed internal volume. The plunger assembly further includes a plunger tip that extends from either a plunger assembly housing or a sealing member. Although the plunger assembly is disposed in the solvent flow, the magnet is not exposed to the solvent. When the valve is actuated, the plunger tip moves the sealing member to open or close the valve. Optionally, an arming force may be applied to the sealing member in advance of opening or closing to reduce the subsequent additional force necessary to move the sealing member during opening or closing, thereby improving the accuracy of the solvent composition in liquid chromatography system applications.

The resilience of the element is selected to prevent sliding of the guide tube within the pole piece due to frictional drag on the tube by an armature; to absorb and store kinetic energy transferred by the armature impacting the closed end of the guide tube; and to reduce hysteresis by returning stored energy to assist the armature in accelerating in the reverse direction. The element may take any of several forms.

Abstract: A fast-acting valve includes an annular valve seat that defines an annular valve orifice between the edges of the annular valve seat, an annular valve plug sized to cover the valve orifice when the valve is closed, and a valve-plug holder for moving the annular valve plug on and off the annular valve seat. The use of an annular orifice reduces the characteristic distance between the edges of the valve seat. Rather than this distance being equal to the diameter of the orifice, as it is for a conventional circular orifice, the characteristic distance equals the distance between the inner and outer radii (for a circular annulus). The reduced characteristic distance greatly reduces the gap required between the annular valve plug and the annular valve seat for the valve to be fully open, thereby greatly reducing the required stroke and corresponding speed and acceleration of the annular valve plug.

Abstract: The valve has a chamber (11) in a housing (10), wherein a valve seat (17) closed by a valve body (19) is arranged. The valve seat (17) is abruptly moved by an actuator (15), the valve body (19) not being able to follow due to its inertia and the valve seat (17) being opened a little. Thereafter, the valve body (19) hits a plunger (20) moved by the actuator (15) together with the valve seat (17). By this impact, the valve body (19) is moved fully off from the valve seat (17) so that the outflow opening (13) is cleared entirely. Then, the flow drives the valve body (19) back into the closed position. Using this valve, short switching periods with a large valve opening degree may be achieved.

Abstract: In a quick-action flap, in which opening occurs by means of hydraulic actuation and closing can be initiated by a spring, two independent systems are provided, namely a servo system. (1) and a flap disk system (2), which are connected to one another via a coupling (1a, 2a). The coupling itself has, between the coupling part (1a) on the servo side and the coupling part (2a) on the flap disk system side, a free-wheel which makes it possible for the forces occurring upon impact of the flap disk (14) on the seating ring in the flap casing (9) to be divided up in accordance with the kinetic energy of the moving masses of each system (1, 2). The free-wheel thus distributes the stressing over two successive impacts, whereby the stress in the lever (12) of the flap disk (14) is reduced by approximately one half. A hydraulic brake in the servo system (1) ensures that the closing speed of the flap disk is kept constant approximately in the last third of the closing process.

Abstract: A liquid shutoff safety interlock device is provided which ensures that fluid flow to a filter is stopped prior to filter removal without requiring the use of a complex and expensive filter valve assembly and without requiring any substantial modification of existing components. The invention is particularly, though not exclusively, adapted to fuel dispensing equipment supplied by a remote pump and installed with a filter above and an impact valve below each fluid supply inlet. The liquid shutoff safety device of the present invention is placed between the impact valve and the filter so that in one position the device blocks access to the end of the filter and in another position provides filter access while at the same time tripping the latch arm to close the impact valve.

Abstract: A separating wall having a valve opening is disposed between a chamber holding a high pressure and a chamber holding a low pressure. The valve seat is closed by a ball acting as a valve body. For a quick opening of the valve, an actuating member imparts a lateral impact to the ball, thereby lifting the ball off the valve seat. Setting the ball back onto the valve seat is effected under the influence of the gas flow passing through the valve opening. The valve has extremely short switching times and allows for a high repetition frequency.

Abstract: Fluid-flow control apparatus is disclosed by which magnetically-positionable elements within a rigid body can be externally manipulated using a controlling source of magnetic flux. The relative attractive forces which bias internal magnetic elements into normally-closed sealing engagement are substantially altered by repositioning the magnetic elements in response to the controlling magnet flux. Complete sealing or isolation against back flow through the valve under conditions of net positive outlet pressure is inhibited by the internal double-acting sealing elements which respond in unified manner to the controlling magnetic flux. Sealing surfaces on the elements are dome shaped to limit the effect of horizontal forces imposed thereon. The elements are biased into floating relation and reduced in dimension to inhibit contact with sidewalls of the valve body.

Abstract: In place of one of the usual blunt seats, a sewer check valve has a knife-edge extending from one of the seats to eliminate holding of compressed, relatively tough chunks of sewage between seats by cutting through the chunks, and has room for the cut pieces to move away from the seats. The flap of the valve has a lever extending therefrom, and a spring actuated rod retained by a catch is released to strike against the lever for forcing the flap against the knife-edge. The catch may be released manually, but is preferably released by slightly delayed operation of a solenoid in response to operation of a level sensing device in the housing of the valve.

Abstract: The pyrotechnic valve according to the invention comprises one or more pyrotechnic devices able to produce gases under a high pressure, which has the effect of suddenly deforming a membrane equipped with a rigid weight.

The membrane ensures a perfect seal between the fluid circulation zone and the zone containing the gases produced by the pyrotechnic devices.

Abstract: The valve described herein comprises a movable core (28) which is drawn toward a fixed core (21) once the valve is opened by excitation of its coil, or solenoid (24). The valve's needle-obturator (17) is capable of moving axially with respect to the movable core (28) but, upon the coil's being excited, remains thrust into the orifice (16) during a first opening stage while the movable core only (28) is caused to rise. Subsequently--once the movable core (28) arrives within a few millimeters of the fixed core--a shoulder (51) offered by the movable core to a shoulder (18) incorporated in the obturator (17) duly makes contact and draws the latter upward, whereupon the action of a spring (27) overcomes such resistance as is offered by a further spring (19) and the obturator itself (17) is raised to a generous distance from its seat in orifice (16) aforesaid.

Abstract: A liquid additive injection pump has a hydraulic motor comprising a differential piston assembly reciprocable in a housing under the urging of a primary liquid into which an additive is to be injected.

Abstract: Spray coating apparatus featuring an improved solenoid valve construction in which response time of the valve actuation is improved by a free-traveling armature. The armature which is unrestrained by spring or other means has an annular shoulder portion which is engageable with an enlarged head portion of the pilot member of the valve. When the pilot is in its seated position, the dimensions of the valve are such that the armature must travel a short distance before its shoulder will impact against the pilot head thus allowing kinetic energy to build up as the armature travel is initiated by coil energization which enables the armature to effectively snap open the pilot upon impact despite spring and high fluid pressure resistance.
