RADIATOR CAP Filed Jan. 16, 1939 3 Ziynentor Chan/s5 .5 Bazley Patented Dec. 24, 1940 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,225,964 RADIATOR CAP Application January 16, 1939, Serial No. 251,053
11 Claims.
This invention relates to engine cooling systems and more particularly to an improved pressure valve cap assembly which can be fitted to the radiator filler spout for closing the system to atr, mosphere. The conventional automobile engine cooling system is designed primarily for operation at atmospheric pressure but the structure of the parts is such that they will withstand slight pressures and the operation of the system under a few in pounds internal pressure improves cooling efliciency. For adverse operating conditions the usual filler cap can be replaced by the structure v of the present invention which consists essentially of a special cap assembly incorporating pressure 15 actuated valving to seal the system except for the relief-of excess internaland external pressures. The improved cap structure, therefore, enables the ordinary open system to be converted easily into a closed system when warranted by operating conditions.
An object of the invention is to provide a sys-' tem closure comprising a few simple and easily manufactured parts which can be assembled at low cost for reliable and carefree operation.
A further object of the invention is to provide a cap having a dependent stud on which is slidably mounted a valve unit to seat on a portion of the spout inwardly of the system vent or overflow on pipe when the cap is in fully closed position and sure through the vent either automatically, in the event of excessive pressure rise, or mechanically, through its mounting stud when the cap is shifted from its fully closed position to an intermediate position prior to complete removal.
Another object is to provide a valve unit wherein an outwardly opening valve and an inwardly opening valve are mounted on opposite ends of an expansible spring bellows which acts on both valves to hold them against spaced seats for sealing the system from the spout vent. With both valves seated by the same spring element the internal pressure at which it is desired to op- 47, erate the system determines the strength of the spring but in order that the vacuum relief valve will open at a small drop below atmospheric pressure the full force of the main spring on the vacuum relief valve is opposed by a bucking spring 50 selected for strength according to the pressure differential at which the valve is to be unseate'd.
The invention will be better understood upon reference to the accompanying drawing wherein which valve is unseated to relieve internal pres-- gine; Figure 2 is an enlarged sectional view of the filler spout and closure structure; Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 2 with the vacuum relief valve unseated and Figure 4 is an elevation showing the upper portion of the filler spout.
In the conventional engine cooling system as seen in Figure 1 the heat generated within the engine I is absorbed by the water or other cooling liquid in the water jacket of the engine and is removed in the radiator 2 or transferred to air drawn through the radiator by an engine driven fan 3. Also driven from the engine is a water circulating pump 4 which draws water from the bottom of the radiator 2 through the hose connection 5 and sends it through the engine cooling jacket for return through the hose connection 6 to the top tank I of the radiator. The top tank of the radiator carries the filler spout 8 closed by a removable cap 9 and provided with an overflow or vent pipe l0.
As seen more particularly in Figure 2 the filler spout 8 is provided inwardly of the overflow III with an inturned flange I2 seated in a depressed portion l3 at the opening. through the top wall of the tank 1.
Resting on the flange I2 is a valve seat or fiber washer H which may be held against displacement by a series of dents l5 pressed in the side wall of the filler spout 8. At its outer. end the spout is provided with an outturned flange I6 terminating in a downturned skirt ll, .30 the lower edge of which forms camming abutment surfaces for a pair of oppositely disposed inturned fingers I8 on the removable closure cap 9.. I
The spout closure assembly includes a dependent stud or pin I! having an enlarged head 20 at its lower end and a shoulderedvor reduced portion 2| at its upper end which projects through a valve seat or washer 22 and a spring diaphragm 23 on the underside of a central depression 24 of the cap and is secured thereto by peening over the upper end of the reduced portion 2|, The spring diaphragm carries corrugations 25 at its rim to increase the flexibility thereof, one of the corrugations seating on a raised rib '26 in the spout flange l6 for sealing the outer end of the spout. Surrounding and slidably mounted on the dependent stud I9 above the enlarged head 20 is a valve unitcomprising the spring bellpws 21 and stamped metal valve elements 28 and 29 secured to opposite ends of the spring bellows 21. The bellows may be of the usual construction comprising a stack of spring disks having their inner and outer marginal portions Joined to mating edges of the neighboring convolutions and affording a holan upstanding I upper edge of mg annular wan ,n 8.1101'01115 a wean-l surface engaging the pin i9. Atthe rim of the plate or valve element 2.9 is a depressed annular head 32 which seats on the gasket I4 and projecting upwardly from the bead is an annular wall 33 which peripherally encloses the bellows and aifords protection thereto when the assembly is separated from the spout. Optionally the incasing wall 33 may be formed wholly or in part as an extension of the dependent peripheral flange 34 of the upper valve element 28. Centrally of the element 28 is a dome-shaped portion 35 which slidably engages the pin l9 through annular wall or extension 38, the which seats on the washer 22 under influence of the expansive tendency of the spring bellows 21. The expansion of the bellows also tends to maintain the valve 28 seated on the vwasher I4- and yieldingly resists the relative movement of the valves toward one.
another. To buck the upward force of the bellows against opening of the valve 28, a coil spring 31 is interposed between the valve and the underside of the cap, one end surrounding and being located by the dome portion 35 and the other end being located by an annular rib 38 formed in the spring diaphragm 23.
With the parts arranged as shown in Figure 2 the system will be closed from the overflow vent H) by the engagement of the two valves with their respective seats and the connection between the valves of the spring bellows. The bellows resists opening of the valve 29 as the pressure rises within the system due,to heat expansion until a predetermined pressure is built up whereupon the valve 29 is lifted to relieve the excess pressure through the overflow pipe I0. As the system cools down the internal pressure drops and in the event of a sub-atmospheric pressure condition the valve 28 will be unseated under the combined forces of atmospheric pressure and the spring 81 allowing the passage of air between the skirt 36 and the dependent stud IS. This unseated position of the vacuum relief valve is illustrated in Figure 3 where it will be seen that the system is vented through the hollow bellows and overflow pipe.
In order to relieve internal pressure and avoid the likelihood of injury, the valve 29 may be unseated prior to complete removal of the closure cap assembly. For this purpose each camming portion of the dependent skirt l1, as shown in Figure 4, is provided with a safety stop 39 adjacent the entrance opening for the cooperating 'lnturned abutment finger I8. Rotation of the cap between the fully closed position defined by the stop 40 at the bottom of the cam and the intermediate position defined by the safety stop 39, lifts the retainer head 20 into engagement with and unseats the valve 29. After a short interval of delay further rotation of the cap moves the abutment finger it beyond the safety stop}! to an adJacent opening in the spout flange 16 for complete removal of the cap.
