Abstract
L'invention concerne un ensemble vanne qui est ajustable dans une plage désirée de degrés d'ouverture sans nécessiter le changement de la résolution d'un actionneur lui-même. L'ensemble vanne (1) comprend un boîtier (2) à l'intérieur duquel un trajet (810) est défini; une vanne-papillon (3) dotée d'un corps de vanne (31) basculable placé dans le trajet (810) et également d'un arbre de vanne (30) basculable conjointement avec le corps de vanne (31); un actionneur (4) doté d'un arbre de sortie basculable (40); et une section de mécanisme de liaison (5) ayant un levier côté entraînement (50) installé entre un arbre de sortie (30) et l'arbre de vanne (30) et ayant également un levier côté entraîné (51) basculable autour de l'arbre de vanne (30). Le levier côté entraînement (50) est basculable dans une plage de fonctionnement d'actionneur (A2), et le levier côté entraîné (51) est basculable dans une plage de fonctionnement de vanne (B2). La ligne médiane (A2c) de la plage de fonctionnement d'actionneur (A2) et la ligne médiane (B2c) de la plage de fonctionnement de vanne (B2) ne sont pas parallèles.
