Abstract: A gas-fired cooking apparatus, comprising a cooking compartment inside which one or more burners are inserted, gas supply source being suitable to supply gas to the one or more burners, further comprising elements for regulating the flow of gas that arrives from the gas supply source arranged in series between the gas supply source and the one or more burners, a control element being adapted to detect internal and external temperature conditions of the cooking compartment in order to regulate the flow of gas through the regulator elements, to one or more burners, so as to maintain the cooking temperature constant at a value preset by the user.
Abstract: A flow control valve for cylinders of liquefied gases having a gauge for indicating the status of the fluid, comprises a body in which there is a region provided with a shank that is adapted to be connected to a cylinder, a region for connection to user devices, a safety valve, and a movable actuation member, the actuation of which blocks the passage for the fluid from the cylinder toward the user device or clears the passage, a pressure gauge being accommodated inside the actuation member.
Abstract: A valve body is provided with at one end with a threaded shank for hermetic coupling to a gas container. The valve body is further provided with a handwheel incorporating a gas status indicator device. That device includes a spring-loaded plunger having a head and a helical stem that is engaged in a cavity of a rotatable body so that an axial movement of the plunger, in opposition to a spring biasing force, results in a rotation of the rotatable body. A visible portion of the rotatable body is marked so as to provide an indication of the axial position of the plunger relative to the handwheel, to thereby indicate gas pressure.
Abstract: A spring-loaded pressure relief valve, particularly for containers of pressurized fluids, comprising a valve body that is associable with a container and forms a discharge port that is controlled by a main piston; an auxiliary valve is further provided, which controls a venting port and drives the intervention of the main piston, such main piston being accommodated in a cavity that is formed in the valve body and is open in an axial direction on the opposite side with respect to the venting port.
Abstract: A float, particularly for level control in bottles of liquefied gas and the like, comprising a float body associated with an element for connection to a valve unit, the float body being constituted by an internally hollow element made of plastics whose shape is defined by a plurality of mutually intersecting spherical bodies.
Abstract: A device for regulating a flow of gas toward user equipment, which comprises a first regulation stage and a second regulation stage arranged downstream in a direction of flow of the gas to be controlled, further comprising a flow limiter interposed between the first and second regulation stages and adapted to intervene if the second stage malfunctions.

Abstract: A valve device for controlling the filling level of cylinders and the like ith liquefied gases, comprising an upper connecting body which can be coupled to a cylinder for liquefied gas and forming a tubular gas infeed element which ends with a coupling body which is associable with a lower connecting body in order to retain a membrane for closing openings for feeding gas into the cylinder, and a valve control element which is controlled by a float and interacts with the membrane; the device further comprising clinching means for the mutual clamping of the upper connecting body and the lower connecting body.
