  • Patent number: 11821537
    Abstract: A valve robot hand includes a driving device, a transmitting sleeve, a first return spring, a first centering sleeve configured to sleeve on a screw cap of a valve handle, a driving fork configured to couple with the valve handle, and a ring-like stopper. The driving fork is provided on an outer face of a lower end portion of the transmitting sleeve. The ring-like stopper is mounted on an inner face of the lower end portion of the transmitting sleeve. The ring-like stopper defines a first through-hole configured to sleeve on the screw cap of the valve handle. The ring-like stopper is sleeved on the first centering sleeve through the first through-hole such that the first centering sleeve is capable of moving in the transmitting sleeve along its axial direction. The first return spring is configured to exert a downward elastic force on the first centering sleeve.

  • Patent number: 11493141
    Abstract: A torque control system is configured to automatically determine the fully open position and fully closed position of the valve without the need of manual operation of the valve. In addition, a control unit of the torque control system can obtain a control parameter based on a driving device operation signal detected by a detection unit, and output a control command to a driving unit to change an operation parameter of the driving device, so that the torque applying by the driving device on the valve can be adjusted, therefore the torque control system of the present application can accurately output the operating torque required by the valve, so that there is no circumstances that the operating torque is too large to damage the valve or the operating torque is too small to be unable to drive the valve.

  • Patent number: 10584467
    Abstract: A water detection and shut-off system is disclosed. The water detection system may be battery powered and include a water detector, a satellite water detector, and a water shut-off mechanism. The detectors and shut-off mechanism may be communicatively coupled via one or more communication links to a client component such as a smartphone app. Upon detecting the presence of unwanted water, the shut-off mechanism may operate an electric motor to close a water shut-off valve to prevent flooding or water damage.
