Abstract: A multi-tower liquid-liquid extraction apparatus having two or more extraction towers arranged in parallel. Each tower has a heavy-liquid supplying port at the top and a heavy-liquid discharging port at the bottom. Additionally, each tower has a light-liquid supplying port at the bottom and a light-liquid discharging port at the top. The heavy-liquid channels of the extraction towers are connected in series. Furthermore, at least two of the extraction towers are connected to respective diaphragm chambers through their respective piping. These diaphragm chambers have a closed space, part of the wall of which is formed by a diaphragm whose volume is changed by an operating drive section. The piping between each extraction tower and its respective diaphragm chamber is equipped with a pressure-regulating chamber and an on/off valve to regulate the internal pressure.

Abstract: Provided is a muffler valve 1 which is attached to a separator partitioning the inside of a muffler and opens and closes an exhaust passage according to the pressure of an exhaust gas of an engine. A valve body is swingably supported by a support shaft with respect to a valve seat. The valve body is urged in a closing direction by a spring member externally inserted to the support shaft. A valve seat substrate of the valve seat arranged along the separator is formed in a substantially flat-plate ring shape having an opening in the center. A valve body substrate of the valve body is formed in a flat dish shape having a flat rim. The muffler valve provides excellent handleability during attachment and can reduce the manufacturing cost of the muffler, improve manufacturing efficiency, and maintain high durability of the muffler.
