No. 5 is characterized in that the action of the thermostat is transmitted to the radiator shutter via the flexible connecting member and the link mechanism, so that the flexible connecting member is an obstacle. If the bendable connecting member is shortened in order to avoid this, the position of the thermostat is limited this time and layout is restricted, which is not preferable. Moreover, since the thermostat and the radiator shutter are mechanically connected,
The opening / closing operation of the radiator shutter is restricted.

FIG. 4 is a control flow chart of the variable grit unit of the present invention, in which the time T is cleared in ST01 (meaning of step No. 1. The same applies hereinafter), and the initial setting value A0 is set to the grill switching setting value A, and Clear the flag F.

Then, it is determined whether or not the water temperature Tw is higher than the grill switching set value A. If the water temperature Tw is smaller than the set value A for grill switching, no (represented by N), that is, there is no need to further lower the water temperature Tw, so the grill is closed. Specifically,
The control unit 33 stops the energization of the heater element 30, retracts the piston rod 28, and closes the grill 12 as shown in FIG.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the operation of FIG. 2. As the piston rod 28 moves forward, the grill 12 opens, and the outside air is taken in as indicated by the arrow, which actively cools the radiator (not shown).

す。Returning to FIG. 4, one unit time is added to the time T in ST06, and the new setting value A1 (A1 is a value smaller than A0) is replaced with the grill switching setting value A in ST07. In ST08, the progress of time T is checked. That is, ST02 → ST08 is repeated a plurality of times until a certain time a is exceeded.

報ランプを連続点灯して注意を促す。After that, in ST09, it is checked whether or not the water temperature Tw is lower than the initial set value A0. There is no problem if the water temperature Tw is smaller than the initial set value A0, but there is a problem if the water temperature Tw is larger than the initial set value A0. That is, the grill 12
It means that the water temperature does not drop even though a certain time has passed from closing to opening. Therefore, in ST091, an alarm lamp is continuously turned on to call attention.

Take the route to 1. In ST041, it is checked whether the water temperature Tw is smaller than B which is a set value larger than A. If the water temperature Tw is higher than the higher set value B, there is a problem. That is, it means that the water temperature Tw is abnormally high even though the grill is open. Therefore, in ST042, the alarm lamp is intermittently turned on to call attention.

The horizontal axis represents the vehicle speed V and the vertical axis represents the grill switching set value A, where A is a curve on the upper right side. Is. That is, as the vehicle speed V increases, the set value A for grill switching is increased to increase the rate of closing the grill during high speed traveling. According to this, the traveling air resistance is reduced by closing the grill during high speed traveling. Can be reduced. It should be noted that B, A0, and A1 are the reference values of the set values described in FIG.
