A spray head for a faucet or the like has a wand body defining a flow path from an inlet to first and second outlets. Diverter seats are provided so a face seal on a diverter spool can direct flow to the first or second outlet. The spool is positioned by a trigger acting on cam surfaces formed on a toggle. A spring biases the toggle to one of two stable states. Movement of the spool by the trigger causes the toggle to change states so subsequent actuation of the trigger causes the spool to move in the opposite direction. The wand body also has a pause button that reciprocates in a chamber that is part of the flow path. The chamber includes a valve seat and the pause button has a spool having a face seal that is engageable with the valve seat to shut off flow through the spray head. A return spring causes separation of the pause button's face seal upon release of pressure on the pause button. The pause button's seals in the chamber are arranged to have equal diameters and thus provide balanced hydraulic forces on the spool.

The membrane is stretchable outward or foldable inward when there is a change in pressure inside the cap wall, or when the gas conduit is moved relative to the cap wall.

The o-ring energizes the first rigid ring for sealingly engaging a second rigid ring mounted to the leg of the bit near the base of the shaft. The second rigid ring is secured to and seals against a surface at the base of the shaft and is held stationary relative to the surface. A lubricant passage for lubricating the seal is pressurized by the drilling fluid pressure in the center of the bit body.

A face mask for a self contained breathing apparatus has two pairs of straps fixed to the frame of the mask, the straps being fixed to a net or woven head piece. The straps at the top of the head piece are fixed with respect to the mask, and the bottom straps are adjustable to tighten the mask against the face of the user. The nose cup has ribs that receive legs of a mounting member for eyeglasses. The eyeglasses include frames, with support arms that are slidably fixable to the mounting member. The mounting member moves towards and away from the eyes of the user, and the support arms move up and down with respect to the nose cup, for full adjustability of the eyeglasses.

A regenerator matrix for effecting the transfer of heat between two counter-flowing air streams separated in part by face seals. The matrix includes strips of material wound about an axis so as to provide a plurality of layers. The matrix also includes embossments located on at least some of the layers and providing interlayer spaces between at least some of the layers, such that the interlayer spaces extend through the matrix substantially parallel to the axis. The embossments have a uniform height and include primary and secondary embossments. The primary embossments extend substantially parallel to the axis to divide the interlayer spaces into gas passageways and substantially resist circumferential gas leakage between the gas passageways. The primary embossments are also for aligning with the face seals to prevent circumferential gas leakage between the two counter-flowing air streams, and are successively spaced so that at most two successive primary embossments will align with the face seals. The secondary embossments maintain the interlayer spaces at a substantially uniform spacing between the primary embossments, yet allow circumferential gas flow within the gas passageways.

The invention relates to a method for detecting the hydrostatic pressure of a thin-wall steel pipe under the end face seal condition. Used equipment is an end face seal steel pipe hydrostatic pressure testing machine which comprises a testing machine body, a hydraulic system, a water pressure system and an electric control system. The method for detecting the hydrostatic pressure of the thin-wall steel pipe under the end face seal condition comprises the following steps of: 1) feeding the pipe and pre-clamping, namely respectively sealing the two pipe orifices of the pressure test thin-wall steel pipe by using two seal flat gaskets on a main pressure test head body and an auxiliary pressure test head body; 2) filling water, namely filling low-pressure water into the pressure test thin-wall steel pipe, exhausting, and closing a low-pressure water inlet valve, an exhaust port and a pressure relief port; 3) pressurizing, namely supplementing the water to the pressure test thin-wall steel pipe for pressurizing, pressurizing a main hydraulic cylinder synchronously, and determining a test pressure value according to a calculation formula; 4) stabilizing pressure, namely after the pressure of the water in the pressure test thin-wall steel pipe reaches a specified test pressure value, stabilizing the pressure until time specified by the test is up; and 5) relieving the pressure and discharging the water and the pipe. The detection method overcomes the defects of the conventional pipe making specifications, and the calculation process is simple, convenient and reliable.
