Appl. No.:

12/836335

Inventors:

Jason Lars Olsen - Wellesley MA, US
Michael Reck - Worcester MA, US

Assignee:

Webstone Company, Inc. - Worcester MA

International Classification:

F16K 11/20

US Classification:

137597, 13759914, 13760116, 137876, 137887, 137613

Abstract:

A near-boiler piping loop apparatus is provided including a primary/secondary piping loop interface apparatus having a unitary construction including a secondary loop shut-off valve, drain valve and drain port in each branch of a secondary loop for connection to a boiler. Supply branch piping and return branch piping connects the interface apparatus to the boiler and provides attachment points for auxiliary plumbing equipment. The apparatus is adapted to connect to pump in variable orientations using rotatable flanges on the interface apparatus and on a wye strainer in the secondary loop supply branch and includes a union fitting attached to the interface apparatus. The union fitting provides a mounting hole for a temperature or pressure gauge.

Inventors:

Jason Lars Olsen - Wellesley MA, US
Michael Reck - Worcester MA, US

International Classification:

F16K 11/10

US Classification:

137597

Abstract:

A primary/secondary loop adapter comprising a valve body having a first primary loop port, a second primary loop port, a first secondary loop port and a second secondary loop port is provided. The secondary loop ports are disposed at respective ends or a linear secondary loop portion of the valve body. A primary loop portion of the valve body is formed by a pair of closely spaced tees extending from the secondary loop portion. At least one main valve portion is disposed in a first one of the tees. A drain/venting valve portion may extend from one or more of the main valve portions. One or both of the primary loop ports may include a flange for connecting to an apparatus in the primary loop.

US Classification:

237 63, 237 59, 237 81

Abstract:

A primary-secondary loop piping system includes at least one boiler in fluid communication with a primary piping loop and at least one primary loop pump in the primary piping loop. At least one secondary piping loop branches away from the primary loop and returns downstream to the primary loop via a pair of closely spaced tees in a primary/secondary piping loop interface apparatus. The primary/secondary piping loop interface apparatus is of unitary construction and includes a secondary loop shut-off valve, drain valve and drain port in each branch of each secondary loop in which it is installed.

Appl. No.:

12/749020

Inventors:

Jason Lars Olsen - Wellesley MA, US

International Classification:

F16L 23/00

US Classification:

285406

Abstract:

A rotatable flange structure is provided which can be installed over the front-mating surface of a plumbing and heating apparatus. A retaining ring fits inside the grooves on the outer edge of a flange portion and on the inner edge of a mounting plate to keep the mounting plate attached to the flange portion. The flange portion can be easily assembled to the rotatable mounting plate and can be removed from the rotatable mounting plate in only one direction. The retaining ring is compressed slightly by the flange portion as the rotatable mounting plate is installed to the flange portion over its front side and snaps back out into the mounting plate groove to complete the assembly and retain the mounting plate to the flange portion.

Assignee:

WEBSTONE COMPANY, INC. - Worcester MA

International Classification:

F16L 23/00

US Classification:

285406

Abstract:

A rotatable flange structure is provided which is integrally or monolithically formed with a Y-strainer. The rotatable flange structure can be installed over the front-mating surface of the Y-strainer. A retaining ring fits inside the grooves on the outer edge of a flange portion and on the inner edge of a mounting plate to keep the mounting plate attached to the flange portion. The flange portion can be assembled to the mounting plate and can be removed from the mounting plate in only one direction. The mounting plate may be prevented from completely being removed from the Y-strainer by an angular branch of the Y-strainer body. The retaining ring is compressed slightly by the flange portion as the rotatable mounting plate is installed to the flange portion and snaps back out into the mounting plate groove to complete the assembly and retain the mounting plate to the flange portion.

US Classification:

237 62, 237 63, 237 65

Abstract:

A boiler loop system including a primary-secondary piping loop interface apparatus having unitary construction including a flow diversion device, and a drain valve and a drain port in branches from a circumferential sidewall. In an embodiment, supply branch piping and return branch piping connect the primary-secondary piping loop interface apparatus to a boiler and provide attachment points for auxiliary plumbing equipment. In an embodiment, the boiler loop is integrated into the primary loop.
