Abstract: An integrated bleed regulator system adapted to be fitted to a steam turbine, the system including a fixed part resembling a diaphragm and has a downstream part including distributor blades between an inner ring and an outer ring. A moving part is provided upstream of the fixed part and constitutes a regulator disk having distributor blades between an inner ring and an outer ring. The disk, according to its annular position, totally or partially obstructs a steam passage in the upstream to downstream direction or does not obstruct it at all and the surface of the regulator disk downstream of the inner and outer rings is at an upstream pressure (P1). A passage is also provided so that at least part of an upstream surface of the assembly formed by the inner and outer rings communicates with a space downstream of an upstream part of the distributor blades at a pressure (P2).

Abstract: The device comprises a body (1) provided with two coaxial circular openings (3, 4) for connecting two sections of pipe, wherein each opening has an oblique seat (5, 6) receiving a wedge formed of two counter-seats (9, 10), a spherical ball (11) and a cage (12) in which the ball carries elastic means (23) which exert a pressure from said wedge on its seats (5, 6), and a rod (26) enabling said wedge to be unwedged, said ball being provided with a rotation shaft (13) and springs (18) enabling the counter-seats to be detached from the ball in the unwedged position of the wedge.
