ABSTRACT:
A vacuum control valve includes a body having a vacuum inlet port, a vacuum outlet port and an atmospheric inlet port formed therein, a movable diaphragm type mechanism positioned within the body to define a vacuum chamber and an atmospheric chamber within the body wherein the vacuum chamber is in communication with the vacuum outlet port and the atmospheric chamber is in communication with the atmospheric inlet port and wherein the movable mechanism is movable in response to change in vacuum pressure within the vacuum chamber, a spring mechanism normally biasing the movable mechanism in a first position, a valve mechanism movable in association with the movable mechanism to thereby control fluid communication between the vacuum inlet port and the vacuum chamber, and between the atmospheric inlet port and the vacuum chamber and a regulating mechanism which further includes a cam mechanism rotatably mounted within the body and operatively associated with the spring mechanism wherein the cam mechanism is rotated in response to loads applied to the vacuum control valve to thereby adjust the biasing force of the spring mechanism.
