  • Patent number: 6913016
    Abstract: A valve manifold assembly having a valve body with at least one chamber defined therein. The chamber has at least one inlet and at least one outlet and has at least one opening. A poppet is disposed in the chamber. The poppet slides in the chamber between a first position where the poppet seals the inlet and a second position where the poppet is disposed in spaced-apart relation relative to the inlet. The poppet has an opening disposed therein. A pin having a first section with a first diameter and having a second section with a second diameter is capable of being slidably disposed through the at least one opening in the valve body and through the opening in the poppet.

  • Patent number: 6834648
    Abstract: A valve manifold assembly with a valve body having at least one inlet and at least one outlet. The outlet has an opening disposed inside a chamber formed in the valve body. The valve body has at least one groove defined therein. A valve member is attached to the valve body. A retaining member is disposed in at least one groove in the valve body so that the retaining member engages with the valve member to cause it to sealingly engage with the outlet opening. The retaining member is capable of being removed from the groove such that it no longer engages with the valve member and it causes the valve member to disengage from the outlet opening.
