Title: Andrew A. Kenny: Innovator in Thermal and Mechanical Solutions

Introduction: Andrew A. Kenny, based in Roselle, IL, is a prolific inventor with a remarkable portfolio of 18 patents. His work primarily focuses on thermal and mechanical systems, contributing to advancements in various engineering applications.

Latest Patents: Among his latest innovations, the "Ring Angle Thermally Responsive Expansion Valve" stands out. This patent describes a right angle thermally responsive expansion valve that features an integrally formed valve actuator rod. The actuator rod, with an enlarged head, is designed to be contacted by a pressure-responsive diaphragm, guided for sliding movement within the valve body. Notably, the reduced diameter end of the rod effectively opens the valve while being sealed by a seal ring between the rod and the body.

Another significant invention is the "Throttle Cable Intervention Servoactuator." This device employs a connector link with a left-hand thread on one end and a right-hand thread on the opposite end. The invention allows for the use of correspondingly threaded connecting members, guided for non-rotating sliding movement within the housing. A driven gear, which rotates based on motor signals, adjusts the effective length of the throttle tension cable connected to the link, showcasing advanced control in throttle systems.
