Thermostatic valve to control engine temperature - has valve operated by bonder cable coupled to thermostat temperature responsive capsule

摘要

The thermostatically controlled regulator has a capsule (23) that contacts a substance that expands and contracts with temperature. The valve is mounted in a separate housing (15) that has an actuator pin (44) and this is displaced by a cam (26) that rotates about an axis and has a rack and pinion (48,49) input. Movement of the rack is provided by a Bowden cable (17) that has a connection to the output of the temperature sensitive capsule. Guidance is provided within a housing (25). USE/ADVANTAGE - For cooling system of IC engine. Allows valve remote from actuator to be operated.
