Title: Improvements in and relating to rotary valves
Inventor: NICHOLAS ALEXANDER HOWARD
IPC: F16K3/08
Filed: 2020-07-27
Abstract: A rotary gate valve comprises an inlet passageway 16, an outlet passageway 18 and a valve chamber 20 that interconnects the inlet and outlet passageways. An obturator 30 is arranged in the valve chamber 20. The obturator 30 carries at least one fluted button 100 and is rotatable between an open position, in which the obturator 30 does not restrict fluid flow between the passageways 16, 18 through the valve chamber 20, and a closed position, wherein the button 100 seals the valve chamber 20 from one of the passageways. The plurality of flutes comprise a number and arrangement of flutes such that the rotational orientation of the fluted button 100 both within a body of the obturator 100 and relative to the location and orientation of an aperture from the valve ensures a flute breaks the seal during initial movement transitioning from a sealed to non-sealed state. It has been found that by adding flutes to the button 100, the stresses generated in use by fluid within the passageways is reduced. Thus a lower grade material can be used as part of a valve body used to form the rotary gate valve.

The synchronization reduces echo when the output buffer is played at a remote peer computer system 10C, which may send back corrected, delayed audio buffers to the two computers.
