Plural Reactor Surfaces Patents (Class 137/505.3)
  • Patent number: 10330214
    Abstract: [Object] Provided is a control valve capable of ensuring controllability in both flows without increasing the number of parts. [Solving Means] A plurality of differential pressure valves 50, 60, 70, and 80 are disposed inside a valve body 10 so that a fluid pressure acting on a main valve body 20 disposed inside a main valve chamber 13 becomes the same in a flow of both directions including one direction from a first inlet/outlet 11 to a second inlet/outlet 12 through the main valve chamber 13 and the other direction from the second inlet/outlet 12 to the first inlet/outlet 11 through the main valve chamber 13.

  • Patent number: 9658625
    Abstract: A gas pressure regulator regulates a pressure of a gas system. The gas pressure regulator includes a first chamber, a first diaphragm which separates the first chamber into a first compartment and a second compartment, a second chamber, with a second diaphragm separating the second chamber into a third compartment and a fourth compartment, the fourth compartment being connected to, and in communication with, the first compartment of the first chamber. A movement of the first diaphragm causes a corresponding movement of the second diaphragm, and a change in the volume of the fourth compartment.

  • Patent number: 9550574
    Abstract: A ventilation system for ventilating a passenger compartment of an aircraft is disclosed herein. The ventilation system includes, but is not limited to, a nozzle that is adapted to be mounted proximate an interior of the aircraft and that is configured to direct a stream of air into the passenger compartment. The ventilation system further includes a valve that is spaced apart from the nozzle and positioned upstream of the nozzle, the valve configured to control a flow of air to the nozzle. The ventilation system still further includes a conduit that fluidly couples the valve to the nozzle. The conduit is configured to convey the flow of air from the valve to the nozzle.

  • Patent number: 8534315
    Abstract: Diaphragm assemblies for use with fluid control devices are described. An example diaphragm assembly includes a body defining a plurality of chambers to be fluidly coupled to an outlet pressure of a fluid control device. Each of the chambers is spaced along a stem at least partially disposed in the chambers, and the stem is to move to control a flow of fluid through the fluid control device. Additionally, the example diaphragm assembly includes a first plurality of diaphragms, each of which is disposed in a corresponding one of the chambers, and each of which is coupled to the stem to move the stem in response to the outlet pressure of the fluid control device.

  • Patent number: 6752169
    Abstract: A regulator for controlling the pressure of flowing fluid and also for selectively fully enabling or stopping the flow. The regulator valve includes a valve housing having an inlet passage and an outlet passage connected by a flow passage with a seat surrounding the flow passage. A valve member is movable toward and away from contact with the seat. A control housing is attached to the valve housing. An elongated rod connected at one end to the valve member has an opposite end extending into the control housing. A rod piston is connected to the opposite end of the elongated rod and is movable in the control housing in sealing engagement with the walls thereof. A compression spring is provided to bias the rod piston and the valve member in directions either toward or away from sealing engagement with the flow passage seat. An auxiliary piston is positioned in the control housing on the side of the rod piston away from the seat.

  • Patent number: 6488046
    Abstract: Pressure reducer for compressed gases, comprising at least one regulation stage constituted by a chamber divided by a first membrane (25) into two chambers (23, 24), one of which said chambers (24) is maintained at a reference pressure and the other (23) at a pressure which depends on the gas pressure in the outlet pipe (3), an opening, closed by a membrane (43) integral with a cap (42), located between the said chamber (24) at the reference pressure and the said gas outlet pipe (3), a gas inlet chamber (10) with an opening (11) which leads to the said outlet pipe (3) in correspondence with the said cap (42), the movements of which said cap open and close the passage (11) between the said inlet chamber (10) and the said outlet pipe (3), and means (41) integral with the said first membrane (25) which act on the said cap (42) so that it approaches and retracts from opening (11) of the said gas inlet chamber.
