Filed:

Sep 27, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/235191

Inventors:

Tim McCarthy - Chesterfield MO, US

Assignee:

Zoltek Companies Inc. - St. Louis MO

International Classification:

D04H 13/00
D04H 5/00
D04H 3/00
D04H 1/00
D04H 1/46

US Classification:

442327000, 442352000, 442357000, 442341000, 442402000, 442408000

Abstract:

A nonwoven veil comprising an oxidized PAN fiber having an aromaticity index between 40 and 60 percent, wherein the veil is thermally stable in temperature ranges used for typical composite fabrication processes. Thermally stable nonwoven veil and composites containing the veil are disclosed. The nonwoven veil could be used as a surface finish having improved properties as measured by surface waviness and lack of defects.

International Classification:

F16K 37/00

US Classification:

137557

Abstract:

This disclosure relates generally to valves, and more particularly, to gas valve assemblies. In one illustrative but non-limiting example, a valve assembly may include a flow module for sensing one or more parameters of a gas flowing through the fluid path of the gas valve, and may determine a measure that is related to a gas flow through the fluid path. A measure related to a gas flow may include, but is not limited to, a measure of fuel consumption by a device or appliance attached to an output port of the valve assembly. Illustratively, the flow module may include one or more valve controllers in communication with one or more pressure sensors, one or more flow sensors, one or more temperature sensors, one or more valve position sensors, and/or any other suitable sensors as desired.

International Classification:

F16K 31/02

US Classification:

25112901, 1374875

Abstract:

This disclosure relates generally to valves, and more particularly, to gas valve assemblies. In one example, the valve assembly may include a valve body with an inlet port, an outlet port, and a fluid path extending between the inlet and outlet ports, one or more valves situated about the fluid path, one or more valve actuators for selectively moving respective valves, one or more sensors for sensing one or more parameters within the fluid path, and a controller secured relative to the valve body and in communication with the one or more sensors for determining one or more valve assembly conditions based on the one or more sensed parameters. Illustratively, the controller may be configured to communicate information from the valve assembly to a combustion appliance controller that is located remotely from the valve assembly through a communications interface of the controller and across a communications bus.
