Patent number: 10221964Abstract: A valve having a simple configuration that prevents the seat from being damaged by self-excited oscillation of the valve body and thus prevents seat leakage. The valve includes a valve casing having a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet, and a valve chamber; the valve chamber including a seat having a seat surface; a stem inserted into the valve casing so that the stem can be vertically movable; and a valve body arranged at a tip of the stem and capable of abutting on the seat surface of the seat due to the vertical movement of the stem such that a tip part of the valve body does not come into contact with the seat surface due to oscillation of the stem.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2016Date of Patent: March 5, 2019Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha FujikinInventors: Masahiko Sogao, Tomohiro Mouri, Masakazu Nagao

Patent number: 8931760Abstract: The ball valve may be manually opened and dosed with ease and securely prevent leakage. The ball valve includes a valve body having a fluid inlet passage, fluid outlet passage, and a communicating part provided between these passages. The ball valve includes a ball having a fluid communication passage and preferably is arranged on the communicating part of the valve body for rotating about a reference axis. A substantially cylindrical ball seat which preferably has a desired opening part on its peripheral wall and is arranged between the ball and valve body. The ball valve includes a ball seat pressing part inside the valve body, adjacent to the ball seat and a presser screw screwed into the inner periphery of the valve body. The presser screw preferably presses the ball seat pressing part by adjustment of its tightening force and presses the ball seat pressing part without contacting the packing.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2013Date of Patent: January 13, 2015Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha FujikinInventors: Shunya Ikeda, Izuru Shikata

Publication number: 20140084198Abstract: Provided is a ball valve which may be manually opened and closed with ease by reducing handle torque and can securely prevent leakage. The present invention relates to a ball valve, comprising a valve body which has a fluid inlet passage, fluid outlet passage, and a communicating part provided between these passages, a ball which has a fluid communication passage and preferably is arranged on the communicating part of the valve body to be able to rotate about a reference axis, a substantially cylindrical ball seat which preferably has a desired opening part on its peripheral wall and is arranged between said ball and said valve body, a ball seat pressing part arranged inside said valve body so as to be adjacent to said ball seat, and a presser screw arranged to be screwed to fit in the inner periphery of said valve body. The ball valve preferably performs communication and interception between the fluid inlet passage and the fluid outlet passage by the rotation of the ball about the reference axis.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 25, 2013Publication date: March 27, 2014Applicant: Kabushiki Kaisha FujikinInventors: Shunya Ikeda, Izuru Shikata

Patent number: 8210493Abstract: A water hammerless valve includes a pneumatically-operated valve having a valve disc for opening and closing a fluid channel by moving upward and downward through a pneumatic actuator operation, and a limiting mechanism for interfering with upward movement of the valve disc when the water hammer occurs. The limiting mechanism includes a stepping motor including a rotation shaft fixed on the upper actuator; a vertical movement component connected to the rotation shaft for moving upward and downward via rotation of the rotation shaft; a lower detecting component for detecting the fact that the vertical movement component contacts the upper end of a stem when the lower detecting component moves downward; and a control device for rotating the stepping motor, for controlling the air supply, and for transmitting a stop signal to the stepping motor when the lower end of the lower detecting component detects the fact.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2008Date of Patent: July 3, 2012Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha FujikinInventors: Hideyuki Miyagawa, Yuki Shimizu, Mikio Inoue
