   Choke valve, Butterfly valve used to limit air intake in internal combustion engine. (Not to be confused with choke valves used in industrial flow control, above.) Clapper valve: a type of check valve used in the Siamese fire appliance to allow only one hose to be connected instead of two (the clapper valve blocks the other side from leaking out)

3. Ball valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_valve

   A ball valve is a flow control device which uses a hollow, perforated, and pivoting ball to control fluid flowing through it. It is open when the hole through the middle of the ball is in line with the flow inlet, and closed when it is pivoted 90 degrees by the valve handle, blocking the flow. [1]

4. Block and bleed manifold - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_and_bleed_manifold

   Two block valves and a bleed valve are as a unit, or manifold, to be installed for positive isolation. Used for critical process service, DBB valves are for high pressure systems or toxic/hazardous fluid processes. Applications that use DBB valves include instrument drain, chemical injection connection, chemical seal isolation, and gauge isolation.

5. Petcock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petcock

   Historically, petcocks were threaded valves controlled by a butterfly handle; [citation needed] modern petcocks are typically ball valves. Compared to the progressive control of a gate valve a ball valve style petcock's is coarse, confining their use principally to on-off applications.

6. Crankcase ventilation system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_ventilation_system

   PCV valve on Ford Taunus V4 engine (feeding from left side valve cover into the inlet manifold) A crankcase ventilation system (CVS) removes unwanted gases from the crankcase of an internal combustion engine. The system usually consists of a tube, a one-way valve and a vacuum source (such as the inlet manifold).
