Thermisch gesteuertes Ventil

摘要

The present disclosure concerns an improved thermally controlled valve, to be installed in a cooling water system of internal combustion engines, etc., designed to eliminate thermal hunting by flowing the cooling water slightly at the initial stage of an increase in the cooling water temperature and flow more cooling water with further increase in the temperature by opening or closing passageways of the cooling water, comprising a valve element fastened to a moving unit of a thermo-element which works by detecting a change in the cooling water temperature and a valve seat which the valve element contacts with and separates from. The valve seat has a horizontal portion and a vertical portion which the valve element contacts with and separates from. The valve element is formed with a side in a convex shape and has a horizontal portion which contacts with and separates from the horizontal portion of the valve seat and a vertical portion which contacts with and separates from the vertical portion of the valve seat. A ring lip is formed on the vertical portion of the valve element, and the cooling water passageways are provided on the ring lip in a direction vertical to the ring lip.
