CONTROL VALVE AND COOLING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18223674 titled 'CONTROL VALVE AND COOLING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a control valve for regulating the flow of coolant in a system. The valve housing has inlet and outlet ports for the coolant, and a ball valve inside that can direct the flow of coolant in different configurations.
- The control valve includes a valve housing with inlet and outlet ports for coolant flow.
- A ball valve inside the housing can be rotated to direct the flow of coolant between different port configurations.
Potential Applications
The technology could be used in various cooling systems, such as automotive radiators, industrial machinery, or HVAC systems.
Problems Solved
The control valve helps regulate the flow of coolant in a system, ensuring proper cooling and preventing overheating.
Benefits
- Efficient coolant flow control - Prevents overheating - Versatile configuration options for different systems
Potential Commercial Applications
"Optimizing Coolant Flow Control in Industrial Machinery"
Possible Prior Art
Prior art may include traditional control valves used in cooling systems, such as gate valves or butterfly valves.
