REMOTE CONTROL TEMPERATURE SENSOR WITH EXPANSIBLE MATERIAL

摘要

In a remote control temperature sensor with expansible material and a flexible capillary tube which is connected to an expansible material capsule in the sensor housing, the capillary tube is wound into a coil and is led out of the sensor housing through an outlet aperture. The pressure of the expansible material actuates a temperature regulator by way of the capillary tube. In order to enable the capillary tube to be more simply unwound from the coil by the desired length, the coil is wound about the expansible material capsule and the expansible material capsule is rotatably mounted in the sensor housing about an axis coincident with the coil axis.
