LEVER MECHANISM OF A TEMPERATURE REGULATOR

The working fluid is admitted into the system through flow-control valve 6 and is delivered to nozzle 3. When the temperature of the item being controlled increases, thermoelement 1 moves shutter 2 toward nozzle 3, thereby increasing the pressure acting on membrane 5. This moves rod 4, rigidly attached to the membrane, downward, reducing the supply of heat-carrying agent to the system and, consequ…
