Abstract: A valve for automatically and proportionally adjusting fluid flow between an engine and a radiator for cooling the fluid heated by the engine in response to changes in fluid temperature within a range of operating temperatures. The valve includes a housing having a chamber. The housing includes a radiator flow port for passing fluid between the radiator and the chamber. A vane pivotally disposed in the chamber has a vane wall engagable with the radiator port for restricting fluid flow. A drive assembly is operatively coupled to the vane for varying the position of the vane within the chamber.

Abstract: A valve assembly for automatically and proportionally controlling the flow of coolant fluid between an engine and a radiator for cooling the fluid heated by the engine in response to changes in the fluid temperature within a predetermined temperature range. The valve assembly includes a housing having a fluid chamber extending between opposing first and second ends. A radiator port extends between the radiator and the first end of the chamber. A bypass port extends between the engine outlet and the chamber. An engine port extends between the engine inlet and the chamber. A main valve is slidably received within the chamber for movement in and out of engagement with the first end of the chamber for closing and opening fluid flow between the radiator and the chamber. A secondary valve is slidably received within the chamber for movement with the main valve in and out of engagement with the first end of the chamber for opening and closing fluid flow between the bypass port and the chamber.

The housing includes a radiator flow port for passing fluid between the radiator and the chamber, a bypass flow port for passing fluid between the engine and the chamber, and an engine flow port for passing fluid between the chamber and the engine. A vane disposed in the chamber has a vane wall engagable with both the radiator and bypass fluid ports for restricting fluid flow through the radiator and bypass fluid ports. The vane is pivotally coupled to the housing for movement between the radiator and bypass fluid ports. A drive assembly is operatively coupled to the vane for varying the position of the vane within the chamber.
