Abstract

815,904. Temperature-responsive actuating - elements. WALTER KIDDE-PACIFIC, [formerly THERMALECTRIC ENGINEERING CO.]. Aug. 24, 1955 [Sept. 2, 1954], No. 24343/55. Class 64(2) [Also in Groups XVII and XXXVII] A temperature-sensing capillary tube 5 and a Bourdon tube 1 are filled (apart from a little irremovable residual gas) with methyl alcohol or monochlorodifluoromethane, 90-99.9 per cent of which is liquid 10 whilst the remainder forms a vapour bubble 6 so that the bubble transfers itself to any hot spot 9 which may occur and the variation in vapour pressure due to temperature change at that spot is transmitted by the liquid 10 to the Bourdon tube. The tube 5 is long and flexible and may be threaded about in contact with critical points of an apparatus, Fig. 6, not shown, so that overheating of any of the points causes the Bourdon tube 1 to shut down the apparatus, e.g. by an electric switch. Communication with the Bourdon tube is through a bore in a fixed block 2 and the tube 5 may be of glass or stainless steel. The system and filling liquid are degassed before the system is filled. For filling, the system is immersed in a liquid bath, Fig. 5, not shown, at a temperature above the operating range of temperature and the air pumped out. The filling liquid is then introduced under a pressure above that of its vapour pressure at the temperature of the liquid bath. The pumping may be repeated and further liquid added. On sealing and cooling, the vapour bubble 6 forms.
