According to principles of this invention, an override controller is structured for being placed in pressurized fluid lines between a valve position transducer and a valve position actuator of an automatic position-controlled valve assembly, with the override controller receiving uncontrolled supply pressurized fluid and having an exhaust. The override controller receives pressurized fluid at first and second inlet ports from the valve position transducer and furnishes this pressurized fluid to the valve position actuator through first and second outlet ports for controlling the position of the valve during normal operation. However, valve mechanisms of the override controller can also be placed in positions for stopping flow of pressurized fluid through the first and second inlet ports and providing fluid flow from the uncontrolled pressurized fluid to the first and second outlet ports for controlling the position of an industrial valve during override operation.

A valve that is sealable to an associated container having an interior fluid storage region is adapted to permit and stop flow of fluid from the fluid storage region. The valve includes a body sealable to the container and a stem mounted to the body having a portion in flow communication with the storage region. The stem is movable relative to the body between an open position to permit flow from the storage region through the valve, and a closed position to stop flow through the valve. The stem has a grasping region spaced from the body that is adapted rotate the stem to move the valve between the open and closed positions. The grasping region has first and second sides. One of the sides has a tactile indicator to provide indication of the position of the valve, the other side is devoid of the tactile indicator.

An automatic stop valve formed in a container of a medical fluid administration system includes an electrical field that attracts the float and valve seat together to shut off flow from the exit port of the container when the fluid within the container is reduced to a predetermined level. One or both of the float and valve seat creates an electric field that attracts the other, which is made of a non-magnetic dielectric, into engagement. In one embodiment, the valve seat is formed of an electret that creates the electric field attracting the float to it to stop flow. In another embodiment, the float comprises an electret that attracts the float to the dielectric valve seat. In yet another embodiment, both the float and valve seat include electrets of opposite polarity that attract each other into engagement. The lack of magnetic and metallic materials makes the shut off valve suitable for use in an MRI environment.

The in vitro bionic cycle test system comprises an upper liquid storage box, a peristaltic pump, a laminar flow generator, an experimental section model, a flow meter, a lower liquid storage box, a cycle pump and a valve. The whole in vitro bionic cycle test system is communicated by a silicon rubber hose and a common rubber hose, fluid is controlled by the valve to flow or stop flowing; the silicon rubber hose is connected to the upper liquid storage box and is downwards connected with the laminar flow generator through the peristaltic pump, a pump head of the peristaltic pump is used for carrying out peristaltic extrusion on the silicon rubber hose; and the laminar flow generator is formed by banding a thin tube embedded in the common rubber hose. Fluid flows out of the laminar flow generator, enters the experimental section model through the common rubber hose, flows into the lower liquid storage box through the flow meter, and returns to the upper liquid storage box through the cycle pump, so that the whole cycle flowing process is completed.

A variable-capacity compressor that includes a housing having an inlet for receipt of refrigerant and an outlet for return of refrigerant, and a plurality of compressing elements contained in the housing between the inlet and the outlet. The variable capacity compressor includes a valve having an electrical control. The valve is dedicated to fewer than all of the compressing elements. The valve is movable between a first state which communicates refrigerant flow to the compressing elements, and a second state that reduces or stops flow to the compressing elements. In an embodiment of the invention, an unloading controller has an operational modulation mode that includes cycling the valve between on and off states to provide a portion of compressor capacity. The unloading controller is further programmed to provide a minimum delay time between transitions between the first and second states, but no maximum dwell time between transitions.

This invention relates to wireless linkage layer flow control method, which comprises the following steps: a, in data transmission process, receive end tests memory space for data transmission data and triggers flow control end; b, receive end stops receiving sequence SN>=VR-H agreement unit AMD PDU; c, receive end sends repeat PDU information and adjusts send window information status report; d, if the receive end receives the repeat PDU within reset time and tests memory data linkage transmission data to certain valve value then stops flow control, otherwise for step c.

The present invention relates to an abnormal switching monitoring device and method. A time point when a high-side switch in which a first electrode receives an input voltage is turned on, a time point when a low-side switch that is connected to a second electrode of the high-side switch is turned on, a time point when a charge current begins to flow to a bootstrap circuit, and a time point when a charge current stops flowing to the bootstrap circuit are compared so as to determine whether or not non-zero voltage switching occurs. The bootstrap circuit supplies an operating current to a gate driver controlling a switching operation of the high-side switch.

The invention discloses a plugging agent and a preparation method thereof. The plugging agent comprises a composition of a water-soluble hydrophobic associated polymer or a water-soluble hydrophobic associated polymer. The preparation method of the plugging agent is a copolymerization cohydrolysis method or a copolymerization posthydrolysis method. The plugging agent easily enters a leakage layer and has good viscoelasticity, so that the plugging agent can pass a throat and expand to fill a leakage crack and a solution cave space, meanwhile, can automatically stop flowing in the leakage layer and is unlikely to mix with oil, gas and water, thus a gel 'slug' with high viscosity and gel strength, which is capable of separating fluid in formation from fluid in a shaft, is formed; and the slug has enough starting pressure difference greater than the difference between the pressure of a mud column and the pressure of the formation fluid so as to achieve the purpose of plugging. The plugging agent and the preparation method thereof can be used for effectively solving various serious leakage and have good application value and social value.
