  • Patent number: 6145807
    Abstract: A valve controlled by-pass stud mechanism for a structure defining a stud receptacle and having a bleed passage intersecting the stud receptacle and normally containing a pressurized fluid medium. An elongate stud body is positioned in sealed relation within the stud receptacle and has a vent passage and defines an internal valve seat located about the vent passage and also defines a valve receptacle having internal threads. A needle valve is in threaded engagement with the internal threads of the valve receptacle and is movable by its threaded engagement within the valve receptacle between a closed position in sealing engagement with the valve seat and blocking flow of pressurized fluid from the bleed passage to the vent passage and an open position spaced from the valve seat and permitting flow of pressurized fluid from the bleed passage to the vent passage.

  • Patent number: 6076804
    Abstract: A hydraulic valve for controlling the flow of a pressured liquid with a housing that has an inlet and an outlet with a pivotally mounted handle that actuated a valve stem member housed within an internal bore with a counter bore step surface. An O-ring member is mounted on the step surface that comes in contact with a convex surface provided in a peripheral flange member on the stem member. A compressible cylindrical member is trapped partially within an opening at one end of the valve stem member urging the convex surface against the O-ring thus blocking the flow of the pressurized liquid through the internal valve bore.

  • Patent number: 6041969
    Abstract: A container for concentrated powder or liquid substances to be put in solution within an enclosure at the time of use is made of three elements, essentially hollow and with cylindrical shape and arranged coaxially, assembled by mechanical engagement in correspondence with zones of different diameter. The elements define internally, in their intermediate space, a watertight chamber in the shape of a cylindrical crown in correspondence with their reciprocal precise axial positioning.
