Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a device for regulating the flow of a cooling medium in a cooling system of an internal combustion engine, having the features of the preamble of claim 1 . Furthermore, the invention also relates to a cooling system with such a device. Background technique
[0002] Today, internal combustion engines are essentially cooled with water. For this purpose, cooling water is pumped into a closed circuit by means of a cooling medium pump or a cooling water pump through cooling ducts in the cylinder area in order to cool the internal combustion engine and is then conveyed to the air-water cooler, where it is heated The warm water is cooled down again by the driving wind. The pumps required for circulating the water are preferably driven by the internal combustion engine. For this purpose, the pump is usually connected via a belt to the pulley of the crankshaft of the internal combustion engine.
[0003] In this case, the direct coup...
