Patent number: 9816632Abstract: An actuated valve system operates (open/close) automatically under overpressure condition. The system includes an on/off valve assembly, a spring actuator assembly configured to actuate the on/off valve assembly to open or close a path for the pressurized fluid, a lock mechanism with one locking yoke and two rotatable locking handles, a collapsible pin type pressure sensing assembly configured to trigger the action of the spring actuator assembly, and a pressure sensing line. The collapsible pin type pressure sensing assembly includes a body, a plunger with two stems, one of which is rigidly connected with the locking yoke, and a collapsible pin, which mechanically fails when the fluid pressure reaches the predetermined level. When the collapsible pin fails, the plunger moves together with the locking yoke, and the locking yoke loses its restriction to the motive element of the spring actuator assembly, and thus trigger the operation of the actuated valve system.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2016Date of Patent: November 14, 2017Assignee: Jiangsu Reliable Mechanical Equipment Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hailiang Liu, Tao Mu, Zaixiao Zhang, Lei Wang, Shoujun Zhao

Publication number: 20050198308Abstract: A method for communication includes coupling a client device to communicate with a host computer over a serial link. Responsively to a call from a client application running on the client device, the client device submits a request over the serial link to the host computer to open a proxy connection for communication between the client application and a server application. Responsively to the request, the host computer creates a socket for communication with the server application, so as to establish the proxy connection via the socket. The host computer and client device convey data between the server application and the client application over the serial link using the proxy connection.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2004Publication date: September 8, 2005Inventors: Jeremy Hoyland, Omer Pomerantz, David Glushko, Rui-Tao Mu
