Devices and method for regulating cooler flow through automotive transmissions

Abstract

Methods and valves for providing a continuous flow of cooler fluid in a fluid circuit of a thermal control system between a cooler and automotive transmission such that free flow of cooler fluid between the cooler and transmission exists at vehicle start-up. Fluid flow to and from the cooler is bypassed in case of pressure increases in cooler lines or pressure differentials, for example cause by a blockage in the cooler, such that the cooler fluid flow bypasses the cooler and continues in the fluid circuit through a thermal element of the thermal control system and back to the transmission. to the transmission. 20 26 21 08 35 31 J ul 2 02 6 2 0 2 6 2 1 0 8 3 5 3 1 J u l 2 0 2 6 t o t h e t r a n s m i s s i o n .
