  • Patent number: 10767776
    Abstract: A pressure relief valve with a stop disposed thereon to ensure components of the pressure relief valve are properly aligned and tightened properly. This allows the components and pressure relief valve to be properly installed and the pressure relief valve to function properly. The stop feature also reduces the time of installation and amount of labor needed to install pressure relief valves and their components.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10591071
    Abstract: A manifold that allows replaceable pressure relief components to be installed and replaced without requiring a system shut down. The manifold allows two pressure relief valves to be installed in separate pressure relief ports. The manifold also includes a valve switch that isolates each valve independently, while allowing the system to remain in operation. For example, in a first position, the manifold directs fluid flow to a first pressure relief valve, while a second pressure relief valve is isolated.

  • Patent number: 8400108
    Abstract: A battery assembly with a housing that contains a removable battery pack. The housing, which is sterilzable, has a head designed to couple to a power consuming device. The battery pack, which is not sterlizable, contains at least one rechargeable cell. The battery pack has a head dimensioned to fit the same charger socket that can receive a sterlizable battery. The battery pack has contacts that abut charger contacts. The housing has internal contacts. Collectively, the housing and battery pack are shaped so that, when the battery pack seats in the housing, the battery pack contacts abut the housing internal contacts. The housing internal contacts are connected to the housing external contacts for supply power to the power consuming device. A cover selectively holds the battery pack in the housing chamber.
