Abstract:

A fluid operating device has separate flow control orifices which must be properly oriented and installed. They are so constructed that they cannot inadvertently be interchanged or installed in a reverse manner. These possibilities are obviated by making one orifice body with legs extending upwardly from the main body portion. The outer edges of the legs touch a circle of larger diameter than the diameter of the main body portion. The other orifice has the upper portion of its main body portion of larger diameter than the first orifice main body portion but of a smaller diameter than the circle touching the outside of the first orifice's legs. The lower portion of the second orifice main body is of smaller diameter than the diameter of the first orifice main body. The second orifice has legs extending from the top of the main body so that a circle touching the outside of these legs has the same diameter as the upper portion of the second orifice main body. The seats for the orifice bodies are shaped to receive the orifice bodies only in their proper orientations.
