Abstract:
A dual lock flow gate includes a valve with a flapper which may be fixed and/or locked in various positions.

Claim (Index 1):
A dual lock flow gate (DLFG) comprises:\n a cylindrical flow gate body and a flapper at an end of the body; a notch in a body sidewall receiving a hinge part of the flapper; the flapper rotatably mounted via a pin that extends between a notch sidewall and the hinge part; at the flapper end of the body, a radial body hole and a shear pin extending from the hole; the shear pin interfering with the flapper such that flapper rotation away from a body through hole is inhibited; at a body end opposite the flapper end, a bore in the body sidewall providing access to the hinge part; and, a stepped plunger in the bore and a spring between the plunger and a plug inserted in the bore; wherein an end of the plunger enters a plunger receiving hole of the hinge part when the shear pin fails and releases the flapper to rotate so that the plunger and the receiving hole of the hinge part are aligned.
