A thermostat for an engine cooling system may include a housing comprising a radiator-side flowing-in inlet for flowing-in coolant from a radiator side, a bypass-side flowing-in inlet for flowing-in the coolant bypassed from an engine, and a coolant flowing-out outlet for flowing-out the coolant to the engine side; and a main valve provided in the housing, and for opening and closing the radiator-side flowing-in inlet by a change in the volume of a wax. The direction in which the coolant flowed-in through the radiator-side flowing-in inlet presses the main valve and the direction operated to open the main valve are opposite to each other.

A thermostat device provided with a cylindrical boss protruding into a flow of fluid flowing in from a fluid inlet inside a device housing from a direction obstructing the flow of fluid, wherein a rectifying wall in the shape of a thin plate that protrudes toward an upstream side of the flow of fluid from the boss is provided as a rectifying means. The rectifying wall is formed in the shape of a plate that gradually increases in thickness from the fluid inlet side toward the boss. The leading edge along a direction of the flow of fluid is formed to have a tapered shape inclined from the tip of the boss toward the base of the boss. A side of the boss opposite the side facing the fluid inlet is provided with a rib.

A mixing unit with a mixer tap for mixing two fluids and a method for manufacturing the mixer tap for mixing fluids are disclosed. The mixing unit has a cartridge, which is provided with a coupling base having an inlet for a first inflow, an inlet for a second inflow, and an outlet for an outflow obtained by mixing the inflows. The mixing unit also has a housing designed to be placed in a coupled position with the coupling base. The housing is designed to change the rate of the first inflow and/or second inflow on the basis of the temperature of the outflow. The mixing unit also includes an attachment for attaching a housing to the coupling base. The attachment allows for movement of the additional housing, in relation to the cartridge, between the coupled position and a separated position.

A thermostat for an engine cooling system, which is arranged between an engine and a radiator may include a housing having a coolant inlet through which coolant flows in from the engine and an outlet leading the coolant to the radiator; and a main valve provided in the housing and coupled to one side of wax to open or close the outlet as the volume of the wax is changed. In particular, the main valve is formed with a coolant hole.

A control valve for adjusting fluid flow has a cylindrical housing bushing with a first and a second flow opening. A control bushing is arranged coaxially in the housing bushing and adjustable between control positions opening and/or closing the flow openings. A first spacer disk and a second spacer disk are arranged axially spaced apart at the housing bushing and surround the housing bushing. At least the first spacer disk is arranged eccentrically at the housing bushing by eccentric displacement relative to a longitudinal axis of the control valve. A first side of the housing bushing has a larger radial spacing relative to an outer rim of the first spacer disk than a second side of the housing bushing. At least one of the first and second flow openings is arranged at the first side of the housing bushing. A cooling system is provided with such a control valve.

A thermostat for an engine cooling system may include a housing comprising a radiator-side flowing-in inlet for flowing-in coolant from a radiator side, a bypass-side flowing-in inlet for flowing-in the coolant bypassed from an engine, and a coolant flowing-out outlet for flowing-out the coolant to the engine side; and a main valve provided in the housing, and for opening and closing the radiator-side flowing-in inlet by a change in the volume of a wax. The direction in which the coolant flowed-in through the radiator-side flowing-in inlet presses the main valve and the direction operated to open the main valve are opposite to each other.

A flow regulating device (60) and a gas water heater (1) having the same are provided. The flow regulating device (60) includes a housing (100) defining a water inlet (110) and a water outlet (120) therein; a flow regulating assembly (200) disposed in the housing (100), a temperature-flow regulating orifice (230) located between the water inlet (110) and the water outlet (120) being defined in the flow regulating assembly (200), and the flow regulating assembly (200) further including a regulating component for regulating opening of the temperature-flow regulating orifice (230); a temperature sensitive assembly (300) disposed in the housing (100) and connected to the regulating component, and the temperature sensitive assembly (300) driving the regulating component according to temperature of water in the housing (100). The flow regulating device has advantages of short regulating time, and high regulating precision.

A thermostat for controlling a coolant circuit comprising: a housing assembly defining an internal cavity and first and second inlets for establishing fluid communication between the internal cavity and the coolant circuit; a wax pack arranged in the internal cavity, the wax pack comprising a push bar and a wax pack body; a blocking frame configured to be driven by the wax pack body to open/close the first inlet; and a main valve block configured to be driven by the wax pack body and/or the blocking frame to open/close the second inlet; wherein the wax pack body comprises: a casing in which wax is filled; a rubber hose having a cylindrical body inserted in the casing; and a cover having a clamping portion clamped onto the casing to seal the rubber hose between the casing and the cover.

A thermostat valve includes a thermostat housing having engine-side and radiator-side coolant inlets that are opposed each other, a lateral coolant outlet leading to an internal combustion engine, and a valve disk. The valve disk has an end face that interacts with and faces a valve seat of the radiator-side coolant inlet. The valve disk lies between the radiator-side coolant inlet and a thermostat element arranged in the thermostat housing. The valve disk has, at the outer edge, a guiding element that includes a deflecting surface on the exterior side of the guiding element.

A thermostatic device including a thermostatic element and a stopper, axially movable about a stationary seat of a housing, opening and closing a passage circulating fluid and connected to a movable portion of the thermostatic element. During expansion of a thermoexpansible material of the thermostatic element, the movable portion drives the stopper axially relative to the seat. The stopper includes a seal, resting tightly against the seal when the fluid circulation passage is closed by the stopper, a first part, with an inner bore receiving the movable portion, and a second part, separate from the first part, the seal being axially charged between the first and second parts. The first and second parts are made of metal, the second part is mounted around the first part, the part facing the axis of the second part forms a peripheral edge attaching said second part to the outer surface of the first part, and the first part forms an axial abutment for the edge of the second part, positioning the first and second parts axially relative to one another by applying a predetermined clamping load to the seal.
