Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19835305A1] The invention relates to an automatic tripping cryo-heat flow switch which is especially used in cooling systems in which a redundancy operation is required. The aim of the invention is to produce an automatic tripping cryo-heat flow switch which, with a construction that is as simple as possible, enables a reliable maintenance-free mode of operation, and thus guaranteeing an automatic switching connection between the heat sink and the application to be cooled. According to the invention, an outer hollow cylinder (1) is provided which is connected to the heat sink (9), and an inner body (2) is provided which is coaxially arranged with regard to said hollow cylinder and which is connected to the application (7) to be cooled. When the heat sink (9) is switched off, a concentric annular gap (4) which is fixed by spacers is located between the hollow cylinder (1) and the inner body (2). The linear thermal expansion factor of the outer cylinder (1) is larger than that of the inner body (2).
