Abstract:
A flow and pressure stabilization device comprises a housing; a first fluid chamber; a gas chamber; a deformable bladder that separates the first fluid chamber from the gas chamber and at least partially defines a volume of the first fluid chamber; a second fluid chamber in fluid communication with the first fluid chamber via a fluid passage; and a variable flow valve in fluid communication with the second fluid chamber, the variable flow valve comprising: a fluid port in fluid communication with a fluid outlet; a deformable diaphragm positioned adjacent the fluid port, the diaphragm at least partially defining a volume of the second fluid chamber; and an outflow control button coupled to the diaphragm and extending at least partially into the fluid port, the outflow control button comprising an at least partially tapered surface.

Claim (Index 21):
A flow and pressure stabilization device comprising:\n a housing comprising a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet; a first fluid chamber within the housing and in fluid communication with the fluid inlet; a gas chamber within the housing; a deformable bladder that separates the first fluid chamber from the gas chamber and at least partially defines a volume of the first fluid chamber; a second fluid chamber within the housing and in fluid communication with the first fluid chamber via a fluid passage; and a variable flow valve in fluid communication with the fluid outlet and the second fluid chamber, the variable flow valve comprising:\n a fluid port in fluid communication with the fluid outlet; \n a deformable diaphragm positioned adjacent the fluid port, the diaphragm at least partially defining a volume of the second fluid chamber; and \n an outflow control button coupled to the diaphragm and extending at least partially into the fluid port, the outflow control button comprising an at least partially tapered surface, the outflow control button being translatable with respect to the fluid port, \n wherein the diaphragm of the variable flow valve is configured such that an increase in pressure within the second fluid chamber can cause the diaphragm to deform and the outflow control button to translate with respect to the fluid port, causing a clearance between the at least partially tapered surface of the outflow control button and an inner surface of the fluid port to change, and wherein the variable flow valve further comprises a spring configured to bias the diaphragm toward the fluid port.
