20080289712 | GAS DELIVERY SYSTEM WITH INTEGRATED VALVE MANIFOLD FUNCTIONALITY FOR SUB-ATMOSPHERIC AND SUPER-ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE APPLICATIONS - A gas cabinet including an enclosure containing at least one gas supply vessel and flow circuitry coupled to the gas supply vessel(s). The flow circuitry is constructed and arranged to flow dispensed gas from an on-stream gas supply vessel to multiple sticks of the flow circuitry, with each of the multiple sticks being joined in gas flow communication to a respective gas-utilizing process unit. The flow circuitry is valved to enable sections of the flow circuitry associated with respective ones of the multiple sticks to be isolated from other sections of the flow circuitry, so that process gas can be flowed to one or more of the sticks, while other sticks are being evacuated and purged, or otherwise are closed to dispensed gas flow therethrough. | 11-27-2008 |

20090095365 | VALVE BLOCK, TOOL ATTACHMENT, A WORKING MACHINE AND THE USE OF A VALVE BLOCK - A valve block disposed adjacent a tool attachment of a working machine, where the tool attachment is adapted for connection to different types of hydraulically maneuvered tools or implements with the aid of a hydraulically actuated locking device. The valve block includes first port means, second port means, and third port means for connecting hydraulic lines of the working machine to hydraulic coupling elements and to the locking device respectively. The valve block includes a line system and valve means which communicate with the port means so as to fulfill at least three of the following five functions: ensuring the presence of pressure in the locking device in the event of a fracture in the hydraulic lines of the working machine; ensuring connection of the first port means with either the second port means or the third port means to obtain post-tensioning of the locking device to relieve the pressure load; and to provide pressure limitation. | 04-16-2009 |
20090272448 | VALVE OF GAS STOVE - A valve of a gas stove includes a valve member and a first sealing member. The valve member is an integral body having a left tube, a right tube, and a connection tube between the left tube and the right tube in a single member. The valve member further has a gas channel therein extended from the left tube, the connection tube to the right tube in sequence and a first bore on the left tube to be communicated with the gas channel. The connection tube has an inlet to be connected to an external gas supply. The first sealing member may be moved to seal the first bore of the gas channel. The present invention has many advantages including strong structure, high precision, and easy for fabrication and assembly. | 11-05-2009 |
20120247595 | Multi-Outlet Check Valve Nozzle - A check valve nozzle having at least two discharge ports and providing improved mixing between the discharged fluid and the receiving fluid. The check valve nozzle may be of a “duckbill” type or a “pancake” type. The “duckbill” type may have discharge ports that vary in size, orientation with respect to the longitudinal centerline of the check valve nozzle, and/or construction materials. The “pancake” type may discharge the fluid from the check valve nozzle in a perpendicular, forward, or rearward direction. The check valve nozzle assembly contains a number of check valve nozzles that can vary in size, orientation with respect to the longitudinal centerline of the end cap of the assembly, and/or construction materials. | 10-04-2012 |
20120312404 | BRANCH PIPE - The manifold type pipe structure according to the present invention is characterized in that at least branch pipe is formed at a pipe passage having a flow hole through which fluid flows, and an input valve is formed at an end portion of the pipe passage, and a joint coupler forming an output valve at the other end portion is prepared, and an output valve of a joint coupler of the other places is joint-connected with a limited rotation angle at an input valve of at least one joint coupler. | 12-13-2012 |
20130025725 | PROCESS INTERFACE VALVE ASSEMBLY - A valve assembly includes a valve body having a fluid access passage extending from a process fluid port to an access port, a block valve disposed in the fluid access passage and movable between open and closed conditions, an access blocking device disposed in the fluid access passage between the access port and the block valve, and a valve interlock arrangement. The access blocking device is movable from an access blocking condition in which access to the block valve through the access port is blocked, to an access permitting condition in which access to the block valve through the access port is permitted. The valve interlock arrangement is configured such that the block valve is prevented from being moved to the closed condition when the access blocking device is in the access permitting condition. | 01-31-2013 |
