| 251293000 | EXTENSION FOR ACTUATOR | 8 |
| 20100006791 | VALVE EXTENSION HANDLE AND METHOD OF USING THE SAME - An extension handle is coupled to a flow control device of a railcar. The extension handle includes a first rod having a first end operatively coupled to the flow control device, an opposing second end forming a handle, and a midsection slidably coupled to a support member coupled to the railcar. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20100148105 | SECURITY MECHANISM FOR A FLOW CONTROL DEVICE ON A RAILCAR AND METHOD OF COUPLING THE SAME - A security mechanism for a flow control device on a railcar and method of coupling the security mechanism to the flow control device are provided. A support member is coupled to the railcar. An extension handle has a first end operatively coupled to the flow control device on the railcar. An opposing second end of the extension handle forms a handle member. The extension handle is slidably coupled to the support member. A securement member is provided for coupling the support member to the extension handle to prohibit movement of the extension handle relative to the support member. The securement member is coupled to the extension handle proximate to the second end. | 06-17-2010 |
| 20110042600 | SPIGOT CONTROL SYSTEMS - A spigot control system is disclosed herein comprising: an attacher assembly; and a torquer that attaches to an existing water dispensing system. The attacher assembly comprises male and female mated portions that interlock to a spigot handle. The attacher assembly substantially prevents rotation of the torquer in circumferential relation to the spigot by attaching around or to the spigot handle. The torquer provides a torque increasing means whereby a user may rotate and manipulate the spigot handle between open and closed conditions with relative ease. The torquer further comprises a securer providing securement means between the torquer and the spigot handle via the attacher assembly. The torquer may comprise durable material with appropriate strength, wear and fatigue characteristics suitable to withstand user-applied torque over a wide range of temperature variations within diverse environmental conditions. The spigot control system may also be attached to an existing beverage dispensing system. Various ornamental designs of the torquer and configurations of the attacher assembly are disclosed herein for the present invention. | 02-24-2011 |
| 20120241657 | Handle extension for butterfly valve - A butterfly valve for use with a tank trailer includes housing, a lateral extension, a shaft provided through the extension, the back end of the shaft having a seat for accommodating a handle thereon, and further extensions may connect with the first mentioned extension. The handle turns the butterfly valve between opened and closed positions. | 09-27-2012 |
| 20120261602 | Valve handle for butterfly valve for bulk commodity hopper with tee - A valve handle for a bulk commodity hopper valve, the handle including an extended handle bar member, with a valve stem socket opening near its distal end, a shorter lock lever member positioned to extend the handle bar member, the members have various bends to provide clearance from interfering with the equipment to which the handle mounts, and a lock lever member having a lever tip that can enter into engagement, or release, with valve lock notches at the end of the handle bar member. | 10-18-2012 |
| 20140103241 | Multi-Angle Butterfly Valve Extension Assembly - A multi-angle butterfly valve extension assembly is disclosed which comprises a universal joint for attachment to a stem of a butterfly valve, a shaft having a first end and a second end, the first end being connected to the universal joint, and an extension housing for supporting the shaft with the second end of the shaft extending out of the extension housing. | 04-17-2014 |
| 20140103242 | TELESCOPING UNIVERSAL GAS VALVE KEY - Provided is a gas valve key having a valve engagement body including a stem receiving cavity sized and configured to receive a gas valve stem. The key includes a first elongate member including a first body having first proximal and distal end portions. The first distal end portion defines a first end face. A second elongate member is connected to the valve engagement body and includes a second body having second proximal and distal end portions. The second elongate member is slidably connected to the first elongate member. The gas valve key further includes a locking element having a hook portion being disposable within an aperture formed within the first body to mitigate movement of the second elongate member relative to the first elongate member when the second elongate member is in an extended position. | 04-17-2014 |
| 20150323098 | LIGHTED MUNICIPAL VALVE KEY - Municipal valve key which includes a valve actuator engaging end; an elongated extension portion capable of extending into a municipal valve box; and a handle portion.
