    U.S. patent 909 — Issued to John Jorden on September 8, 1838, for "...a new and useful improvement in Fire-Plugs and Hydrants...". This is an early wooden bodied hydrant, the earliest hydrant patent extant; the patent office itself burned to the ground in 1836, taking with it all prior hydrant patents.

    According to API Standards 600, "Steel Gate Valve-Flanged and Butt-welding Ends, Bolted Bonnets", the trim consists of stem, seating surface in the body, gate seating surface, bushing or a deposited weld for the backseat and stem hole guide, and small internal parts that normally contact the service fluid, excluding the pin that is used to make ...

  4. Tap (valve) - Wikipedia

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

    Faucet is the most common term in the US, similar in use to "tap" in British English, e.g. "water faucet" (although the term "tap" is also used in the US). Spigot is used by professionals in the trade (such as plumbers), and typically refers to an outdoor fixture.

  5. Siphon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siphon

    The seep holes can be plugged by debris and corrosion, requiring manual cleaning and intervention. To prevent this, the siphon may be restricted to pure liquid sources, free of solids or precipitate. Many automatic siphons have been invented going back to at least the 1850s, for automatic siphon mechanisms that attempt to overcome these ...

  6. Hydraulic tappet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_tappet

    Oil under constant pressure is supplied to the lifter via an oil channel, through a small hole in the lifter body. When the engine valve is closed (lifter in a neutral position), the lifter is free to fill with oil. As the camshaft lobe enters the lift phase of its travel, it compresses the lifter piston, and a check valve shuts the oil inlet ...

  7. Tap and die - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_and_die

    This feature causes the tap to continuously break the chip and eject it forward into the hole, preventing crowding. Spiral point taps are usually used in holes that go all the way through the material, so that the chips can escape. Another version of the spiral point plug tap is the spiral flute tap, whose flutes resemble those of a twist drill ...

  8. Fusible plug - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusible_plug

    A fusible plug operates as a safety valve when dangerous temperatures, rather than dangerous pressures, are reached in a closed vessel. In steam boilers the fusible plug is screwed into the crown sheet (the top plate) of the firebox, typically extending about 1 in (25 mm) into the water space above it. Its purpose is to act as a last-resort ...

  9. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    A rod is connected to the center of the diaphragm so that it moves as the pressure is applied. The rod is then connected to a valve stem which allows the valve to experience the linear motion thereby opening or closing. A diaphragm actuator is useful if the supply pressure is moderate and the valve travel and thrust required are low.
