20140332599 | THERMOSTAT - A thermostat having a hollow body, wherein the hollow body is at least partly filled with a thermosensitive medium. A heating element is provided for heating the thermosensitive medium. The heating element is located outside of the hollow body and is at least partially insulated electrically from the hollow body. The element is connected to the hollow body in a thermally conductive manner. | 11-13-2014 |
20140326343 | ELECTRICALLY DRIVABLE VALVE FOR REGULATING VOLUME FLOWS IN A HEATING AND/OR COOLING SYSTEM OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - An electrically drivable valve for regulating volume flows in a heating and/or cooling system of a motor vehicle with a housing, on which at least two connecting pieces are formed, whereby depending on the arrangement of the valve in a heating and/or cooling circuit one or more connecting pieces are formed as inflow connections and a connecting piece as an outflow connection or one or more connecting pieces as outflow connections and a connecting piece as an inflow connection, whereby a valve body rotatable around a rotation axis is arranged in the housing. In the case of an electrically controllable valve, in which pressure losses in the control circuit are reliably reduced, in the case of an axial inflow or outflow of the valve by a heating medium and/or coolant the axes of one or more outflow connections or of one or more inflow connections are oriented axially and radially relative to the rotation axis of the valve body. | 11-06-2014 |
20140283796 | SUPERCHARGED INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - A supercharged internal combustion engine may include an exhaust gas turbocharger which is integrated into an exhaust section on the turbine side and into an intake section on the compressor side. An exhaust gas recirculation line may connect the exhaust section and the intake section. The exhaust gas recirculation line may branch off from the exhaust section downstream of a turbine of the exhaust gas turbocharger and opens into the intake section upstream of a compressor. A valve device for performing at least one of open-loop and closed-loop control of an exhaust gas recirculation rate may be arranged in the region of the exhaust gas recirculation line. | 09-25-2014 |
20130240634 | THERMOSTAT VALVE WITH COOLANT STOPPAGE FUNCTION - The invention relates to a thermostat valve for a cooling system of an internal combustion engine with a coolant stoppage function, comprising a first bypass valve element and a second bypass valve element, a main valve element to be arranged in a counterpart to a connection to a coolant radiator, and a crossmember to be arranged between an engine outlet and an engine inlet, which crossmember forms a valve seat for the first bypass valve element and the second bypass valve element, wherein, on its outer side, the crossmember has a collar which forms an axial supporting region for the counterpart and which is loaded in the axial direction by a compression spring, with the result that the collar is forced in the direction of the counterpart. | 09-19-2013 |
20130200167 | THERMOSTAT INSERT - The invention relates to a thermostat insert comprising at least one return spring, a thermostatic working element having a working piston that can be pushed out of a housing of the working element against the force of the return spring, a main valve element, and a short circuit valve element connected to the working element displaced when the working piston is pushed out of the housing, a base element in particular implemented as a base plate, and a brace on which the return spring is supported, wherein the brace is mechanically connected to the base element, so that an assembly enclosing the return spring in a cage-like manner is formed, and the exterior of the brace has a closed peripheral collar seated against a slanted sealing surface of a counterpart after installation and that is loaded by the return spring so that the brace is sealingly forced in the direction of the slanted sealing surface. | 08-08-2013 |
20100051255 | HEAT EXCHANGER, PARTICULARLY FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE - The invention relates to a heat exchanger, particularly for a motor vehicle, comprising a housing ( | 03-04-2010 |
20090205589 | Thermostatic Valve - A thermostatic valve for a cooling system of an internal combustion engine, having a thermostatic operating element for arrangement in a distributing chamber as the drive element for a main valve element between an engine outlet and a connector to a coolant cooler, and for a bypass valve element designed as a valve slide arranged between the engine outlet and an engine inlet to serve as a pressure control valve. In addition to the valve slide ( | 08-20-2009 |

20090020079 | CIRCULATION SYSTEM, MIXING ELEMENT - The invention relates to a circulation system with at least one first partial flow which can flow through a first heat exchanger and a second partial flow of a first medium. According to the invention, said system comprise also at least one second heat exchanger, in particular a charge air cooler, which can be penetrated by a first media flow, and at least one adjustable mixing element which can be penetrated, on the inflow side, by a first partial flow and/or a second partial flow and, on the outflow side, generates the media flow with a target temperature. | 01-22-2009 |
20080250787 | Device for Controlling an Exhaust Gas Stream - The invention relates to a device for controlling an exhaust gas stream. Said device comprises a housing ( | 10-16-2008 |
20080216776 | Coolant Controller and Method for Its Manufacture - A coolant controller for a coolant circuit of an internal combustion engine has a housing and a thermostat valve arranged therein. The thermostat valve has at least one valve closing member loadable by a working element as a function of a temperature value, a temperature sensor as well as a heating element for the working element. The housing is provided with at least one plug from which connecting lines extend to the temperature sensor. A current supply for the heating element is present. The plug, the temperature sensor, the connecting lines and the current supply for the heating element are provided as a pre-manufactured assembly and this assembly is integrated into the housing. | 09-11-2008 |
