Pinch valves, the simplest valve design, include any valve with a flexible elastomer body that can be pinched close to cut off flow, using a mechanism or fluid pressure. They are linear motion valves ...

Above: A pinch valve actuated by shape memory alloy (SMA) wires to open and seal a tube for industrial applications. Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are metals that deform when heated and return to their ...

The most interesting part of this build is the valve. Anyone could have bought an off-the-shelf solenoid valve, not [Valentin], he designed his own. It is simple and just pinches the water supply ...

Committee will create standards on face-to-face dimensions for the various types of control valves as defined in ANSI/ISA-75.05.01-2000 (R2005), Control Valve Terminology, with the exception of clamp ...

Pinch valves are flex-body valves consisting of a flexible tube that is pinched either mechanically, as in the valves shown in Figure 3-88 through Figure 3-90, or by the application of a fluid ...
