Abstract: A cam-driven valve system includes a valve housing configured to define a plurality of fluid passageways and to support an array of sliding gate fluid valves in the fluid passageways in such a way that the flow of fluid therethrough is controlled. The system includes a plurality of cams supported on a cam shaft. The cam shaft is arranged so that each cam is associated with a corresponding sliding gate valve. Rotation of the cam shaft results in actuation of the valves via the cams. The cams of the cam shaft vary in shape and size.

Abstract: A valve assembly includes an assembly housing and fluid valves disposed in the assembly housing. The assembly housing includes a first manifold that defines a plurality of first ports and a second manifold that defines a plurality of second valve ports. Each second valve port is associated with a corresponding one of the first ports to form a port pair. The assembly housing includes a valve chamber disposed between the first manifold and the second manifold. The valve chamber is in fluid communication with an interior space of the first manifold via the first ports and is in fluid communication with an interior space of the second manifold via the second valve ports. Each fluid valve is configured to control fluid flow between the first valve port and the second valve port of a respective port pair.
