Abstract: A hydrant valve assembly including a valve body including an exit end, a lip extending radially outward from the exit end, a valve seat and a first valve member selectively movable between a first orientation whereby the first valve member is not engaged with the valve seat and a second orientation whereby the first valve member is engaged with the valve seat. An annular retaining plate is supported on the exit end of the valve body and includes a first rod extending downwardly into the valve body, the first rod being arranged to selectively maintain the first valve member in the first orientation. A flange is detachably engaged with and concentrically arranged around the lip, and a barrel is supported on the retaining plate. A plurality of connectors extends through the barrel, the retaining plate and the flange for rigidly coupling the barrel to the retaining plate and flange.

Abstract: An apparatus for covering or sealing Storz-type outlets is shown and described. The apparatus includes an outer cap portion having a continuous sidewall, a connector portion for connecting the outer cap portion to the water supply assembly and a sealing cap portion rotatably coupled to the outer cap portion and located at least partially within a void defined by the continuous sidewall, the sealing cap portion including a pliable sealing portion for forming a seal about the water supply outlet. The connector portion includes a pair of lugs and a pair of ramped lug guides associated with an inner surface of the continuous sidewall. The pair of ramped lug guides are provided for receiving a pair of lugs of the water supply assembly. A nut portion extends from an outer face of outer cap portion for engagement by a tool such as a wrench or socket for rotating the outer cap portion about the water supply outlet.
