Abstract: A mixing valve has a valve housing, a thermostatic valve in the housing having a collar extending outward along an axis from the housing, and a stem axially shiftable in the collar. A sleeve surrounds the collar. A retaining part and interengaging screwthread formations between the part and the housing press the part against the sleeve and collar and thereby secure the collar and the sleeve on the housing against axial and angular displacement relative thereto. A handle is rotatably supported on the sleeve and threaded on the stem.
Abstract: A mixing valve has a housing having hot- and cold-water inlets and at least one hot-, cold-, or mixed-water outlet. Respective hot- and cold-water valves in the housing each have a valve stem rotatable to control flow through the respective valve and carrying a respective externally toothed gear. Respective hot- and cold-water control rings rotatably mounted about a common axis on the housing each have internal teeth in continuous mesh in all angular positions of the valves and rings with the gears of the respective valves.
