Definitions
- the present invention relates to a thermostatic valve for temperature-dependent control of a fluid flow.
- the invention also relates to an oil circuit of a motor vehicle and a motor vehicle with such
- thermostatic valves are well known and control fluid flow as a function of temperature.
- thermostatic valves are installed in order to release or close different fluid channels depending on the oil temperature and thereby convey the oil flow through a radiator or a bypass duct and thus around the radiator.
- thermostatic valves have a relatively high pressure loss, which in turn requires a high power to promote the fluid flow.
- known thermostatic valves are often also expensive and thus designed expensive.
- the present invention therefore deals with the problem of providing a thermostatic valve an improved embodiment, which is characterized in particular by a low pressure loss and cost-effective production.
- Thermostat valve for the first time no longer with an axial means of a
- the thermostatic valve according to the invention has essentially only five components, namely a housing, a temperature-dependent expansion element, a valve body, a return spring and the aforementioned spindle element.
- a housing In the housing is a first fluid channel opening, a second fluid channel opening and a third
- the spindle element has a
- Threaded portion of the spindle member are that in an axial displacement of the spindle member, a rotation of the valve body and thus a division of the fluid flow is carried out on the three fluid channel openings.
- Valve body several openings.
- Thermostatic valve can thus one of relatively few components
- thermostatic valve are created, which thereby not can only be produced inexpensively, but also requires only a small space requirement.
- a thermostatic valve can be created with a relatively low pressure loss, which in particular in motor vehicles fuel-saving effect.
- the expansion element has a Wachsdehnscherlement, a bimetal or a
- the threaded portion has a thread with a continuous thread pitch, or at least two thread portions with different
- Thread pitches By providing at least two threaded portions with different thread pitch can influence the
- Switching speed of the thermostatic valve according to the invention are taken, which applies in rough terms, the higher the thread pitch, the slower is the switching speed of the thermostatic valve.
- threaded areas with different ones can be used
- Thread pitch associated with individual temperatures so that the thermostatic valve according to the invention, for example, in a first
- the thermostatic valve on at least three switching states, wherein the valve body is not rotated in the first switching state and the
- the three different switching states can be taken at different temperatures, so that the thermostatic valve, for example, at a fluid temperature 0 ° C ⁇ t ⁇ 65 ° C, the first switching state, at a fluid temperature 80 ° C ⁇ t ⁇ 1 10 ° C, the second switching state and at a fluid temperature of t> 1 10 ° C assumes the third switching state.
- a so-called fail-safe function can be represented in a particularly simple manner, since the fluid flow is conducted through the radiator both with a broken return spring and a high temperature, as well as with a defective expansion element, whereby the return spring the valve body in its first switching state suppressed.
- the thermostatic valve is designed as an oil thermostatic valve.
- thermostatic valve Especially for tempering an oil circuit in a motor vehicle, it is thus advantageous to use the thermostatic valve according to the invention, since this is structurally simple and therefore inexpensive, almost any switching states allows and also compact builds, which is particularly in view of cramped, modern engine compartments of great advantage , Other important features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, from the drawings and from the associated

- Fig. 4 to 6 is a sectional view through the inventive
- Thermostatic valve 1 for the temperature-dependent control of a fluid flow 2 (see Fig. 4 to 6), a housing 3 with a first Fluidkanalo réelle 4, a second Fluidkanalo réelle 5 and a third Fluidkanalo réelle 6.
- the thermostatic valve 1 according to the invention which is designed in particular as an oil thermostatic valve and can be used in an oil circuit 7 of a motor vehicle not shown in detail, a temperature-dependent expansion element 8, a valve body 9 with a plurality of openings 10, 1 1, 12, a return spring thirteenth and a spindle element 14 with a threaded portion 15 with two end-side, opposite receptacles 16, 17, namely a first receptacle 16 and a second receptacle 17.
- the return spring 13 is supported on the one hand on the housing 3 and on the other hand in the first
- Engagement lugs 18 are arranged, which are so in operative connection with the threaded portion 15, which in an axial displacement of the
- the expansion element 8 may be formed, for example, as Wachsdehnscherlement, as a bimetal or as a shape memory alloy or such Wachsdehnscherlement, such a bimetal or such
- the threaded portion 15 has a thread with a continuous thread pitch, which of course is also conceivable that the threaded portion 15 a thread with at least two threaded portions 19,19 'with different Has thread pitch, whereby different switching speeds can be realized at different temperatures, for example.
- the thermostatic valve 1 has at least two switching states, wherein the valve body 9 is not rotated in the first switching state and the fluid flow 2 via a trained as a bypass
- Fluid channel opening 6 dissipates, while it is rotated in the second switching state such that it passes the fluid flow 2 to a connected to a cooler fluid channel opening 5.
- the third fluid passage opening 6 would be the one connected to the bypass passage, whereas the second fluid passage opening 5 would be that connected to the radiator.
- the first fluid channel opening 4 forms the inlet into the thermostatic valve 1.
- Thermostatic valve 1 in this case has at least three switching states (cf., Fig. 4 to 6), wherein the valve body 9 is not rotated in the first switching state (see Fig .. 4) and the fluid flow 2 to the second connected to the radiator
- Fluid channel opening 5 passes, while it is rotated in the second switching state (see Fig. 5) by approximately 90 ° and the fluid stream 2 via the third fluid channel opening formed as a bypass 6, while in the third switching state (see FIG 180 ° is twisted and the fluid flow 2 back to the with the cooler
- the thermostatic valve 1 can at a fluid temperature between 0 ° C ⁇ t ⁇ 65 ° C, the first
- a so-called fail-safe function can be realized, which remains, for example, in a broken return spring 13 in the third switching state (see Fig .. 6), whereas in a defective expansion element 8 the
- valve body 9 in its first switching state (see Fig. 4) rotated and thereby allows in both cases, a steering of the fluid flow 2 via the second fluid channel opening 5 to the radiator, whereby a so
- thermostatic valve 1 With the thermostatic valve 1 according to the invention not only a comparatively structurally simple constructed thermostatic valve 1 can be realized, which consists of only five individual parts, namely the housing 3, the
