ABSTRACT:
A viscous fluid coupling especially used for driving the cooling fan of engines, changing the rotation speed of the fan smoothly according to the temperature. The smooth change of the rotation speed, that is, the smooth change of torque transmission by the coupling is performed by employing a valve device which has a slot for passing fluid and a specially shaped valve member movable to control the opening and closing of the slot so that the rate of increase of the opening area of the slot is smaller in a low temperature region than in a high temperature region.
