  • Compressor valve
    Patent number: 7540301
    Abstract: A steel dampening ring rests on a wafer spring in an annular groove in a compressor valve stop plate to dampen the action of the plastic valve plate to prolong the life of the valve.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 27, 2006
    Date of Patent: June 2, 2009
    Inventor: Walter Tuymer
  • One-way fluid valve
    Patent number: 7506662
    Abstract: An improved one-way fluid valve construction is provided. A valve housing (102) includes one or more valve ports (108) and control ports (110). A control member (304) is disposed within the control port (110). The control member (304) is movable within the control port (110) between a first position and a second position. A control rod (302) can extend between the control member (304) and a portion of the valve port (108). A control rod coupling (402) interacts with the control member (304) to cause a rotational or pivotal movement the control rod (302) through a predetermined angular arc in response to movement of the control member (304). A sealing face (404) formed on a second portion of the control rod (302) advantageously forms a seal with an orifice (316) that separates an input side of the valve port (108) from an output side. The seal can be formed when the control rod (302) is in a control rod sealed position.
