  • Check valve assembly
    Patent number: 11828372
    Abstract: A check valve assembly includes a first flapper, a second flapper, an internal passage formed by the first flapper and the second flapper, and a nozzle disposed within the internal passage and configured to generate an internal flow in the internal passage. In response to a fluid flow through the check valve assembly, the first flapper and the second flapper are configured to move between an open position allowing the internal flow through the internal passage and an outer flow outside the internal passage, and a closed position preventing flow through the internal passage. When the first flapper and the second flapper are operably in the open position, the internal flow has a lower pressure than the outer flow outside of the internal passage, such that the first flapper and the second flapper are maintained in the open position.
