  • Apparatus, systems and methods for managing fluids comprising a two-stage poppet valve
    Patent number: 11157026
    Abstract: Apparatuses manage the flow of fluids, such as, for example, water, through pipes. Specifically and without being bound by theory, the apparatuses of the present invention creates a backward pressure in fluid traversing a pipe, wherein the backward pressure within the pipe provides compression to the fluid effectively compressing entrapped gas bubbles within the fluid, allowing more accurate water meter measurements. The apparatus comprises a two-stage poppet valve for regulating the flow of fluids through a pipe.

  • Apparatus, systems and methods for managing fluids comprising a poppet valve having multiple springs
    Patent number: 11092985
    Abstract: Apparatuses of the present invention create a backward pressure in fluid traversing a pipe, wherein the backward pressure within the pipe provides compression to the fluid effectively compressing entrapped gas bubbles within the fluid, allowing more accurate water meter measurements. The apparatus comprises a poppet valve having multiple springs to minimize or eliminate spring-binding caused by off-center hydraulic force during use.
