Abstract: A molded resin article and a method of manufacturing a molded resin article that suppresses generation of portions of reduced bonding strength while suppressing separation at the interface between a bond portion (secondary molding resin) on the one hand and a first body and a second body on the other. The molded resin article has a first contact surface formed perpendicular to the main surface of the first body and contacting the second body, a second contact surface formed perpendicular to the main surface of the second body and contacting the first body, and a bond portion bonding together the first body and the second body, formed by injecting molten resin into a resin channel formed by contacting the first contact surface against the second body and contacting the second contact surface against the first body and solidifying the molten resin.

Abstract: An electronically controlled thermostat control method is obtained which makes it possible to eliminate the response delay from the time that the required cooling water temperature is set to the time that the actual cooling water temperature reaches the set water temperature by controlling the flow rate, and to realize high cooling water temperature tracking characteristics with a high degree of precision at a low cost.

Abstract: A thermo element that makes it possible to efficiently raise the temperature of a whole body of wax encapsulated in a case and to obtain a reliable seal structure for a terminal withdrawal portion used to control the electrification of a heating device. The thermo element includes a thermally expanding body encapsulated in a tube-type case, and which allows a moving piston to advance toward and withdraw from the outside of the case with a change in volume of the thermally expanding body that accompanies a variation in the temperature thereof, and a heating element disposed in the case and that thermally affects the thermally expanding body. An electrode member is disposed inside the heating element. Further, a plate spring member, which also serves as a heat radiation fin for radiating heat to the thermally expanding body, is disposed at the outer circumference of the heating element. The plate spring member has a larger surface area than the heating element.

Abstract: The present invention provides a thermo element that makes it possible to efficiently raise the temperature of a whole body of wax which is encapsulated in a case and to obtain a reliable seal structure for a terminal withdrawal portion used to control the electrification of heating means.

Abstract: A thermostat 1 which placed in a cooling fluid channel of an internal combustion engine and which controls the flow of a cooling fluid within the cooling fluid channel depending upon a change in the temperature is disclosed.

Abstract: A fitting construction of the thermostat 1, having a valve body 12 which actuates by the function of a piston portion 11, 15, 15a, 16 and a spring portion 6 depending upon a temperature change in the cooling fluid to cross said fluid channel FA, and which blocks or communicates the fluid channel by the movement is disclosed. The construction has a valve body 17 possessing an insert hole 5a into which the valve body 17 is inserted, an alignment groove 2b formed along the direction of the insertion of the valve body 17, projection 17g is placed on the circumference surface of the valve body 17, which is engaged with the alignment groove 2b, and which can slide along the alignment groove 2b, and a cover 19 which is screwed from the hole opening 2a onto the insert hole 5a, and which pushes and supports the valve body 17 at the end thereof. By having such a construction, there is no need for enlarging the diameter of the pipe, making it possible to moderate the restrictions of the thermostat placement.
