Provided is an EGR device that allows an EGR valve to be removed with ease even when the EGR valve is provided adjacent to a turbocharger. The EGR device includes a first connecting pipe portion (41b) extending from a compressor of the turbocharger and having a first annular shoulder surface (41c) at a base end thereof, an EGR valve (65) fixedly attached to a part of the engine, a joint member (71) including a flange (71a) attached to the EGR valve (65) and a second connecting pipe portion (71b), and opposing the first connecting pipe portion in a coaxial relationship, the second connecting pipe portion being provided with a second annular shoulder surface (71c) at a base end thereof, and a flexible pipe member (72) having a first end fitted onto the first connecting pipe portion and a second end fitted onto the second connecting pipe portion. A distance (L2) between the two annular shoulder surfaces is greater than a length (L1) of the flexible pipe member by a prescribed distance.

A mixer valve of an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle has a drive device with a respective drive pinion and a control disc for driving two flaps. A single servomotor for driving the drive pinion is arranged in a corner region of an exhaust gas duct and of an intake duct.

A mixer valve of an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle includes a single servo-motor and a differential. A flap arranged in an intake port and a flap arranged in a exhaust duct are driven by a differential. Spring elements tension the flaps in a base position counter to the stops and determine which of the flaps is driven in which control area of the servo-motor.

A low pressure EGR regulating valve is driven by an electric actuator, and an output of the electric actuator is transmitted to an intake air throttle valve through a link device. An ECU executes a failure determination to determine presence of a failure in a case where a sensed opening degree, which is sensed with a low pressure EGR opening degree sensor, is other than an opening degree that corresponds to a maximum opening degree of the throttle valve limited by a mechanical stopper. The ECU executes the failure determination after the energization of the electric actuator is stopped in response to stopping of the engine.

The present invention discloses a novel engine controlled by combustion reaction path, which cylinders comprise working cylinders and reforming cylinders. According to the operational condition of engine, the engine is used for compressing, heating and reforming the fuel injected from the reforming cylinder injector; by controlling the reaction boundary conditions between fuel and air, the reforming cylinder can exhaust partial intermediate products or oxidation products of the different oxidation stages; the products are then mixes with the inlet air in the pre-mixing chamber and then is introduced into the working cylinder. Under operating in different working conditions, the engine can discharge the mixed gas with different activities under different oxidation stages by regulating the corresponding boundary conditions of the reforming reaction of the reforming cylinder, and can achieve concentration stratification and activity stratification of the mixed gas in the working cylinder by using the fuel injected from the working cylinder injectors, and can effectively achieve high effectiveness and broaden the scope of clean combustion by changing the combustion reaction path. The present invention just adopts simple oxidation reaction post-treatment device, and then the emission of the engine can meet the requirement of EuroVI emission regulation.
