| 20150362079 | Media Control Valve - A media control valve includes a body, a plunger assembly of multiple components housed in the body with a plunger control valve cap assembly secured to the body for housing a control knob. The body and the plunger assembly include resilient seals between adjacent multiple components of the body and the plunger assembly, respectively, to permit relative movement therebetween during assembly and use. The media control valve includes a diaphragm which acts as a membrane that physically isolates and seals the chambers above and below. The spool sleeve design of the valve has all of the plunger seals and bushings held within the sleeve. Once the spool sleeve is removed, the replacement seals and bushings can be replaced and inspected with relative ease due to the accessibility at both ends of the sleeve. Since each plunger seal is held within its own rigid cavity, held on three sides and not stacked on top of another seal or loose component, proper alignment is better assured during and after installation. The body components parts are also assembled using resilient seals to facilitate assembly and repair, while reducing any tendency of the valve to seize during use. | 12-17-2015 |
| 20150377105 | METERING VALVE FOR ADDITIVES AT RISK OF FREEZING - A metering valve having a valve housing, a channel, a valve body that can be moved in order to open and close the metering valve, and a spring, which applies a spring force to the valve body and thus keeps the valve body in a rest position. The spring is supported on at least one calibration body. The valve body, the spring, and the at least one calibration body are arranged in the channel, and the at least one calibration body is supported by a supporting component fastened in the valve housing by a material-bonding connection. A segment of the supporting component protrudes from the valve housing. | 12-31-2015 |
| 20150377107 | FLUID CONTROL VALVE DEVICE - A fluid control valve device includes a seal part disposed to a valve seat of a housing. The seal part is elastically deformable and contacts a valve part when a fluid passage is closed.
