Abstract

See full text

A body includes two separate openings on a first side of the body that correspond to separate passages that converge to a common passage. An opening on a second side of the body couples to the common passage. A bore in the body is concentric with the common passage. A diverter has at least a part of the diverter in both the bore and the common passage. A tubular portion of the diverter has an open end in fluid communication with the common passage. One or more seals are positioned circumferentially around the part of the diverter located in the bore. The diverter is selectively rotated with the drive mechanism during use to align a diverter wall opening with a selected separate passage such that an object moving from the common passage through the tubular portion of the diverter is directed into the selected separate passage during use.
