Title: High pressure gate valve
IPC: F16K3/36
Filed: 1975-09-23
Abstract: 1503021 Valves MCEVOY OILFIELD EQUIPMENT CO 23 Sept 1975 [4 Oct 1974] 38974/75 Heading F2V A gate valve is provided with special sealing arrangements to enable it to work at pressures of the order of 30,000 p.s.i. Between a cap or bonnet 130 and a closure ring 160 there is provided a T-section metal ring gasket 166 and between the closure ring and the valve body 10 there is a further T-section metal ring gasket 168. On an upper stem 80 of the valve closure member there is an integral ring seal 220 which makes a metal-to-metal sealing engagement with a surface 186 on the closure ring 160 when the valve is closed or on a surface 156 on the cap 130 when the valve is opened. A stuffing box 142 is also provided for the stem 80. A lower stem 82 has a similar integral ring 120 which sealingly engages a surface 124 in the valve body when the valve is closed. A stuffing box 98 is provided for this stem. A bleeder valve 223 permits packing 144 to be replaced and a further bleeder valve 118 on the lower stem 82 is opened whenever the main valve is opened or closed so that line pressure provides a balanced force on both the upper and lower stems 80, 82. Seat members 32, 34 are sealed into the valve body by plastic seal rings 230, 240 (Fig. 3) the latter having a metal ring (224), Fig. 4B (not shown), which prevents the plastic ring from being forced between the end face of the seat and the body. A further seal between the seat and body is provided by forcing sealant from a reservoir 54 into a groove 64 in the seat. Fig. 6B illustrates an alternative arrangement of the seal between the seat and the valve body. Between a split ring 316 and a plastics seal ring 308 are provided two wedge or cam rings 312, 314 which are forced by line pressure into metal-to-metal sealing engagement between the seat and the valve body. In an alternative embodiment, Fig. 7 (not shown), the closure ring 160 is omitted and the cap or bonnet is provided with a boss (410) having upward and downward bevelled shoulders (412), (414) respectively for engagement by ring seals (402), (404) respectively carried in spaced relationship by the upper stem. Seal (402) contacts shoulder (412) when the valve is closed and seal (404) contacts shoulder (414) when the valve is open. Seal (404) is in the form of a rounded shoulder on the stem but seal (402) is a separate collar around the stem located between a shoulder on the stem and a split ring (424) held in place by a snap ring (426). The seal includes a downwardly projecting lip (448).

Inventor: MAGUIRE THOMAS
IPC: B24B41/06
Filed: 1959-11-19
Abstract: 888,335. Grinding milling cutters. BRAYSHAW TOOLS Ltd. Nov. 17, 1960 [Nov. 19, 1959], No- 39275/59. Class 60. An attachment for holding a milling cutter during tooth grinding comprises a horizontal member A on which the cutter A<SP>1</SP> is rotatable in a vertical plane, this member being carried within a bush a<SP>1</SP> which is movable within a horizontal slot d<SP>5</SP> in a vertical plate D<SP>1</SP> adjustably mounted on a horizontal plate D. The plate D is movable about a pivot d on a base B, spring-loaded finger D<SP>2</SP> extending upwardly from the pivot to engage the face of a cutter tooth. The vertical plate D<SP>1</SP> has a base-portion d<SP>2</SP> slotted at d<SP>3</SP> to permit of lateral adjustment related to the plate D on which it is secured by bolts d<SP>4</SP>. A micrometer C, used as an adjustable gauge-point during the setting-up of the cutter for grinding, is carried by a removable pillar B<SP>1</SP>. Adjustable stops are secured in a circular groove in the base B by bolts having their heads inserted in the groove; they allow a maximum swing of the plate D, with the cutter mounted thereon, of 180 degrees, permitting semi-circular cutter-teeth edges to be ground, the radius being dependent on the position of the support A in the slot d<SP>5</SP>, as determined by the micrometer setting in relation to the pivot d; the base of the pillar B<SP>1</SP> is accurately located relative to the pivot by pegs c. A clamping thumb-nut a<SP>2</SP> secures the bush a<SP>1</SP> after the setting-up of the cutter and a handle d<SP>6</SP> on the plate D enables the ground edge to be swung across the side or periphery of the grinding wheel; spring-loading of the spindle A and a C-washer a facilitates removal of the cutter. End mills may be ground by supporting the mill in a chuck having a spindle normal to its axis which is engagable in the slot d<SP>5</SP> in place of the cutter support A. Spirally-fluted cutters may be ground by swinging the plate D through substantially 180 degrees, the underside of the tooth being manually kept in contact with the finger D<SP>2</SP> during grinding.

Title: Improvements relating to oil and like seals for piston rods and like reciprocatable members
IPC: F16J15/00
Filed: 1958-12-08
Abstract: 834,998. Stuffing-box substitutes. LINDE'S EISMASCHINEN AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT ZWEIGNIEDERLASSUNG MASCHINEN FABRIK SURTH FUR G.m.b.H. Dec. 8, 1958 [Dec. 6, 1957], No. 39484/58. Class 122 (5). Liquid present on a member 1 which reciprocates in an opening in a partition separating a first zone 9 containing the liquid, e.g. lubricating oil, from a second zone 6, is stripped from the member by means of a high-velocity gas directed away from the end of the opening facing the latter zone. As shown, the member 1 is a piston-rod and the zone 6 (which may be the cylinder of a compressor) is separated from the zone 9 housing the piston-rod driving mechanism, by a sealing-ring 3, annular chamber 4 and sealing-ring 2. In order to strip off the liquid, such as oil, still adhering to the piston-rod after the mechanical stripping action of the ring 2, the chamber 4 is connected to a pump which, via the port 5, reduces the pressure in the chamber below that in the zone 6, thereby causing gas, such as air, to flow in the direction of the arrows 7 away from the latter zone at a high velocity through the ring 3. The ring 3, which is formed with several sealing lips, is shaped so as to form a nozzle whereby the gas is directed on to the surface of the rod. The ring 2 may have one or more flexible lips 10 urged into contact with the rod by the pressure in the zone 9 or may be in the form of a selflubricating bush; both rings 2, 3 may be formed wholly or in part of a plastic, rubber or like material having wear-resisting properties. The necessary reduced pressure in the chamber 4 can be obtained by means of a jet-pump inserted in the cooling water circuit of the apparatus with its suction inlet connected to the port 5; such means may be employed in conjunction with means for establishing highpressure conditions in the second zone by supplying air or inert gas to such zone. In the case where the apparatus is used in a dusty atmosphere, the second zone may be associated with a vestibule portion immediately adjacent the partition and having its interior maintained at higher pressure than the pressure in the first zone.

Filed: 1976-09-30
Abstract: 1517087 Valves J A SMITH 30 Sept 1976 40707/76 Heading F2V The chamber of a safety valve loaded by an enclosed spring 3 has wall and top deflectors 14, 15 leading to a side exhaust port 18 to reduce turbulence in the escaping fluid. Opening of the valve may be further assisted by constructing the top deflector as a piston and by having convex and concave surfaces of different curvature on the seat and closure member, respectively, whereby the ratio of gap 13 to gap 12 decreases and the thrust on the member increases as the valve lifts. When the deflector 15 is at rest it has a clearance of 0À1 inch from a collar on the valve spindle which abuts a tapered bore in the closure member and is loosely coupled with it through a pin-and-slot connection.
