A temperature-controlled fluid flow regulator
Slide-type valve, constructed of materials having different coefficients of thermal expansion, provides variable flow area as the slides move in relation to each other with temperature changes.

Pneumatic shutoff and time-delay valve operates at controlled rate
Shutoff and time delay valve, which incorporates a metering spool that moves at constant velocity under pneumatic pressure and spring compression, increases fluid-flow area at a uniform rate. Diaphragm areas, control cavity volume, and bleed-orifice size may be varied to give any desired combination of time delay and spool travel time.
