2. Gate valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gate_valve

   A gate valve, also known as a sluice valve, is a valve that opens by lifting a barrier (gate) out of the path of the fluid. Gate valves require very little space along the pipe axis and hardly restrict the flow of fluid when the gate is fully opened. The gate faces can be parallel but are most commonly wedge-shaped (in order to be able to apply ...

3. Gate (hydraulic engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gate_(hydraulic_engineering)

   Within the gate valve, there is a gatelike disk that moves up and down perpendicular to the path of flow and seats against two seat faces to shut off flow. The velocity of the fluid against a partly opened disk may cause vibration and chattering which will ultimately lead to damage to the seating surfaces. This is a common way that gate valves ...

5. Tap (valve) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_(valve)

   For high pressure domestic water systems this does not matter, but for low pressure systems where flow rate is important, such as a shower fed by a storage tank, a "stop tap" or, in engineering terms, a "gate valve" is preferred. Gate valves use a metal wedge with a circular face, usually the same diameter as the pipe, which is screwed into ...

6. Slide valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_valve

   Cylinder, with slide valve removed to show ports A double-acting slide valve cylinder. Steam enters via the steam port SP, and is admitted by the slide valve SV through the upper passage S to push down the piston P. At the same time, exhaust steam from below the piston passes back up the lower passage S, via the valve cavity, to exhaust E. As ...

7. Parallel (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_(engineering)

   Generally, workshop parallels have 4 faces that are machined and ground - the front, back and sides, although some do have the ends with a smooth surface. The surface of a parallel can often tell how it was manufactured, with a 'grain' showing that it was ground - and a smooth or mirrored finish showing it has been lapped.

8. Shuttle valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttle_valve

   Positioning a manual valve to neutral exhausts the air pilot pressure, closing the two-way valves, and trapping oil on both sides of the cylinder to lock it in position. [ clarification needed ] Standby and emergency systems: compressor systems requiring standby or purge gases capability are pressure controlled by the shuttle valve.
