A main valve reduces an unregulated pressure of a high-pressure gas to a regulated pressure by being interlocked with a diaphragm, which receives the regulated pressure within a pressure regulating chamber and is displaced. A subsidiary valve is interlocked with the main valve through a plunger and reduces the unregulated pressure of the high-pressure gas to the regulated pressure. The subsidiary valve is located such that the force, which accompanies a pressure loss occurring at the subsidiary ...

A pressure sensor includes: an airtight case equipped with first and second pressure input orifices provided respectively on opposing first and second wall surfaces; a cylindrical first bellows fixed on the first wall surface at one end and equipped with a shaft hole communicating with the first pressure input orifice; a cylindrical second bellows fixed on the second wall surface at one end; equipped with a shaft hole communicating with the second pressure input orifice and arranged in series wi...

A pressure switch includes a body, a lower cap and an upper cap respectively mounted to two opposite ends of the body. A casing is airtightly sleeved on an outer periphery of each of the lower cap and the upper cap. There are two electrodes disposed in the body and selectively electrically contacted with each other. A micro-adjust set is disposed in the body to adjust a distance between the two electrodes for preventing the pressure switch from an interior bad contact when the pressure switch is...

A pressure sensor includes a hollow cylindrical stem, a sensor chip, and a wiring board. The hollow cylindrical stem has a pressure-sensitive flexible diaphragm at a first axial end thereof and an opening at a second axial end thereof, the opening for transmitting pressure into the stem. The sensor chip is provided on the diaphragm for outputting an electrical signal in proportion to the deformation of the diaphragm. The wiring board electrically connects the sensor chip to an external circuit. ...

Disclosed is a pressure gauge including a body forming an inlet, an outlet, and a shunt hole. A pressure meter is provided to the shunt hole. An inlet duct in connection with an inflation device is provided to the inlet. A check valve is arranged in the inlet duct. An outlet duct is connected to the outlet and is prepared with an inflation mouth for coupling with an intake nozzle of an object to be inflated. When an inflation device is operated to charge air into an object for inflation through ...

Two sides of a single metal plate are bent to form the structure of a spring terminal having two spring portions. In the spring terminal having such a structure, the two spring portions are different from each other in a natural frequency. For this reason, when external vibrations are applied to a pressure sensor, even if one of the two spring portions of the spring terminal resonates with the external vibrations, the other spring portion can keep the electric connection between a circuit in a s...

A pressure regulator for regulating fuel pressure in an internal combustion engine, containing a valve including a closing member forced into a valve seat by the action of an angularly shaped valve leaf spring one arm of which is braced on the closing member and the other arm is braced on a support member of a regulator housing. In the region of its angled portion, the leaf spring is fixed on a pin supported in the regulator housing, and the bearing of the pin in the regulator housing contains s...

Pressure measurement may be achieved by using a pressure-conveyance media that responds to externally applied pressure to convey pressure to a pressure sensor. With the conveyance of pressure, the pressure measurement may be accomplished by determining a pressure of the pressure-conveyance media, determining a temperature of the pressure-conveyance media, and determining pressure externally exerted on the pressure-conveyance media based one the pressure of the pressure-conveyance media and the t...

In manufacturing a pressure sensor a recess that will form part of the sensor cavity is formed in a lower silicon substrate. An SOI-wafer having a monocrystalline silicon layer on top of a substrate is bonded to the lower silicon substrate closing the recess and forming the cavity. The supporting substrate of the SOI-wafer is then etched away, the portion of the monocrystalline layer located above the recess forming the sensor diaphragm. The oxide layer of the SOI-wafer here acts as an "ideal" e...

A pressure gauge includes a diaphragm having a substantially rigid outer portion and a displaceable inner portion that displaces in response to a pressure difference between first and second sides of the diaphragm. The pressure gauge further includes a sensor located proximate to the diaphragm and adapted to sense the displacement of the diaphragm inner portion. The pressure gauge further includes a monitor and control system coupled to the sensor (wired or wireless), and adapted to determine th...
