  • Patent number: 9133946
    Abstract: A slam-shut device includes an inlet, an outlet, a valve seat, and defines a flow path. A valve disc is shiftable between an open position and a closed position, and reset pin responsive to an actuator is coupled to the valve disc and shifts between an untripped position and a tripped position. A cylindrical cage is mounted within the valve body and is disposed in the flow path, and includes a plurality of flow apertures slidably receives the valve disc. The cage includes a first end adjacent the valve seat and a second end away from the valve seat, and the cage forms a cylindrical recess disposed adjacent the second end of the cage and spaced from the flow apertures.

  • Patent number: 8794260
    Abstract: A safety device for a gas distribution system includes a valve body and an upper casing attached to the valve body, the upper casing housing two springs. The two springs are separated by a casting tube. The two springs are attached to a movable diaphragm that is exposed to gas system pressure. The valve body also includes a cam mounted within the valve body. A limit switch is directly connected to the cam such that the limit switch moves directly in response to movement of the diaphragm. Additionally, a reset pin extends from the valve body and interacts with the cam such that the cam may be reset from a closed position to an open position by moving the reset pin.

  • Patent number: 8225812
    Abstract: A safety device for a gas distribution system includes a valve body, an upper casing attached to the valve body, the upper casing housing two springs. The two springs are co-axially located and separated by a casting tube. Further, the two springs are attached to a movable diaphragm that is exposed to gas system pressure. A snap ring flange is also attached to the valve body, the snap ring flange being used to secure the safety device to a main regulator in the gas distribution system. The valve body also includes a cam mounted within the valve body. A limit switch is directly connected to the cam such that the limit switch moves directly in response to movement of the diaphragm. Additionally, a reset pin extends from the valve body and interacts with the cam such that the cam may be reset from a closed position to an open position by moving the reset pin.
