Abstract

A transmission cooler thermal bypass device that includes a body having a front side, a back side, a top side, and a bottom side. A first opening, a second opening, a third opening, and a fourth opening, whereby a first passageway connects the first opening and the second opening, and a second passageway connects the third opening and the fourth opening. At least one fin. The first passageway and the second passageway do not include a flow control valve.

Claims (33)

1. A transmission cooler thermal bypass device, comprising:

a body having a front side, a back side, a top side, a bottom side, a first end, a second end, a first opening, a second opening, a third opening, and a fourth opening;

a first passageway connecting the first opening and the second opening, the first passageway extending through the body from the first end to the second end;

a second passageway connecting the third opening and the fourth opening, the second passageway extending through the body from the first end to the second end;

whereby the first passageway and the second passageway do not include a flow control valve.

2. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one fin.

3. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 1 , wherein the first opening, the second opening, the third opening, and the fourth opening are internally threaded.

4. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 1 , wherein the second passageway is angled upwards from the third opening to the fourth opening.

5. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of fins.

6. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one fin extending from an outer surface of the first side of the body.

7. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of fins extending from an outer surface of the first side of the body.

8. A transmission cooler thermal bypass device, comprising:

a body having a front side, a back side, a top side, a bottom side a first end, a second end, a first opening disposed on the first end, a second opening disposed on the second end, a third opening disposed on the third end, and a fourth opening disposed on the fourth end;

a first passageway connecting the first opening and the second opening, the first passageway extending through the body from the first end to the second end;

a second passageway connecting the third opening and the fourth opening, the second passageway extending through the body from the first end to the second end; and

at least one fin.

9. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 8 , whereby the first passageway and the second passageway do not include a flow control valve.

10. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 8 , wherein the first opening, the second opening, the third opening, and the fourth opening are internally threaded.

11. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 8 , wherein the second passageway is angled upwards from the third opening to the fourth opening.

12. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 8 , further comprising a plurality of fins.

13. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 8 , further comprising that at least one fin extends from an outer surface of the first side of the body.

14. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 8 , further comprising a plurality of fins extending from an outer surface of the first side of the body.

15. A transmission cooler thermal bypass device, comprising:

a body having a front side, a back side, a top side, a bottom side a first opening, a second opening, a third opening, and a fourth opening;

a first passageway connecting the first opening and the second opening, the first passageway extending through the body from the first end to the second end;

a second passageway connecting the third opening and the fourth opening, the second passageway extending through the body from the first end to the second end; and

at least one fin;

whereby the first passageway and the second passageway do not include a flow control valve.

16. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 15 , wherein the first opening, the second opening, the third opening, and the fourth opening are internally threaded.

17. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 15 , wherein the second passageway is angled upwards from the third opening to the fourth opening.

18. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 15 , further comprising a plurality of fins.

19. The transmission cooler thermal bypass device according to claim 15 , further comprising the at least one fin extends from an outer surface of the first side of the body.
