<p>Valve means to control the flow of charge air through a turbocharger intercooler by-pass (2), the valve means (1) having a valve (6) in the by-pass, actuating means (11) for the valve, and means (12) for sensing the charge air temperature, the sensing means being operatively coupled to the valve actuating means, (11), characterised by a valve (6) having a body (17) by which the valve can be mounted in the by-pass (2), a valve member (9, 15) movably mounted on the body (17) to close the by-pass, resilient means (10) on the body and urging the valve member into a position wherein the by-pass is open, and thermostatic means (11, 12) on the valve body for the sensing charge air temperature and for actuating the valve member (9, 15) to close the valve (6) when the sensed temperature reaches a given value. <IMAGE></p> |
