Abstract: A device for prevention of particulate contamination of a valve fitting and for notification of whether actual access or tampering or potential access or tampering of a fluid from a fluid tank connected to the valve and/or the valve has occurred, featuring a fitting block which is insertable within the fitting or capable of receiving the fitting, and first and second straps bendable about the valve and fastenable to each other. One of the straps may include a ring through which a valve burst disk is insertable when the strap is bent about the valve. If the device was compromised and the cylinder was removed for access to the valve fitting, the ring of one of the straps would remain on the burst disk even though the cylinder was removed from the fitting. Thus, the compromised device would remain on the valve indicating that access to the valve or fluid had been attempted or achieved.

Abstract: A flow controller and a flow controlling method are adapted to be released from conventional restrictions by using a novel type called a pulse shot type. A pulse shot (opening/closing operation of a first cutoff valve (12) and, after that, opening/closing operation of a second cutoff valve (17)) is repeated. Simultaneously, a volume flow Q of process gas exhausted from the second cutoff valve (17) per unit time on the basis of after-filling pressure and after-exhaust pressure of the process gas in a gas filling capacity (13) measure by a pressure sensor (14). Furthermore, a mode of the pulse shot is changed to control the volume flow Q of the process gas exhausted from the second cutoff valve (17) per unit time.

Abstract: A slow-release check valve for a pneumatic system including a compressed gas source and a pneumatic device includes a body with a proximal, supply end and a distal, power end. Supply and power couplings are mounted on the body supply and power ends respectively and are adapted for coupling with a compressed gas source and a pneumatic device respectively.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a three-way valve reduced in the number of component parts and man-hours for assembling the component parts. A pressure chamber of a piston for urging a first main valve in a valve-closing direction by a spring, and a pressure chamber of a piston for urging a second main valve in a valve-opening direction against the urging force of a spring are connected to a medium-pressure port B via a pilot valve and a pressure passage. When the pilot valve is open, the pressure in the pressure chambers into which high-pressure fluid is introduced from a high-pressure port A via an orifice is permitted to escape to the medium-pressure port B, whereby the piston is pushed upward by the high pressure to open the first main valve, and a plug is urged by the spring to close the second main valve.

Abstract: The heddle shaft rod (4) described originates in an extruded aluminum profile section with relatively thick side walls, which are removed in some regions and thereby made thinner. This can be done without substantial impairment to the rigidity of the heddle shaft rod, yet as a result a substantial reduction in weight is attained. The removal of material can be adapted to the local load conditions. For instance, it is possible at the ends or other force introduction points to leave unweakened thick walls, while the other regions of the side walls are milled off far enough that a uniform thinner wall thickness is attained. It is furthermore possible to vary the amount of material removed, either in multiple steps or in infinitely graduated fashion. The material removal pertains to a reduction in the wall thickness that is measured transversely to the movement direction of the heddle shaft rod.
