SOLVED: si_124 - Krupp - Titan-"Kaffemühle"-"coffee grinder"
« on: October 28, 2021, 10:18:39 AM »
For one point I would like to know the following: What is operated with this lever? How does this system work? Where was it installed? There is an alternative name, what is it?

Well the lever looks like it is controlling a valve and the scale suggests there is a low normal high section.

The regulator looks more like something for hydraulic pressure or steam.

Yes, there is a "low", a "middle" and a "high" section. But neither hydraulic pressure nor steam.

No spring or anything similar is pre-tensioned. Where are bias valves used in vehicles?

Bias valves are used in the brakes otherwise the back gets more braking power and makes it hard to control, race cars have adjustable bias valves to account for different circuits and fuel loads (less fuel changes the cars balance)

Back on the questions is this a speed regulator?

According to your description, this should be the "Bremskraftverstärker" in German.

In the very broadest sense it is an speed regulator...

No, but if you use the system too much, you can you can get problems with the friction...

No connection with the clutch. Brake, or deceleration, is the right direction.
