US Patent:

20130336802, Dec 19, 2013

Filed:

Dec 15, 2011

Appl. No.:

13/996872

Inventors:

Phillip Wayne Galloway - Madison MS, US
Jeffrey David Skinner - Madison MS, US
Kelly Dale Valtr - Roanoke TX, US

Assignee:

EATON CORPORATION - Cleveland OH

International Classification:

F04C 14/02

US Classification:

417 2

Abstract:

Example fluid circuits (e.g., within aircrafts) include first and second pump assemblies. The first pump assembly has an electric motor and a first fluid pump. The first fluid pump is coupled to the electric motor and has a case drain port that is in fluid communication with a case drain region of the first fluid pump. The second pump assembly is powered by hydraulic pressure from the first fluid outlet of the first fluid pump and functions to augment flow through the case drain region of the first fluid pump.

International Classification:

F16K 24/04

US Classification:

137583

Abstract:

A bleed valve assembly includes a control assembly having a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet and a passageway in fluid communication with the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. A fluid inlet air pressure is greater than a fluid outlet air pressure. An electromechanical valve is disposed in the control assembly and provides selective fluid communication between the passageway and the fluid outlet. A valve assembly is disposed in the passageway of the control assembly and prevents fluid communication of non-gaseous fluid between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. The valve assembly includes a float member and a float seat. A flow restrictor is in fluidic communication with the passageway and is configured to maintain a pressure within the assembly such that a change in a gaseous fluid pressure across the valve assembly is insufficient to close the valve assembly.
