VANED VALVE FOR EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION LINE
A valve form exhaust gas recirculation Mac in an engine includes a first barrel connectable to a first group of cylinders, a second barrel connectable to a second group of cylinders, and a center barrel between the first and second barrels and connectable to an intake oft he engine. A poppet valve with two valve heads mounted on a valve stem is provided to open and close openings between the first and second barrels, with one of the valve beads of the poppet valve opening into the center barrel Vanes are provided-in the center barrel to direct flow from the opening by the valve bead that opens into the center barrel toward the outlet opening.

Exhaust gas recirculation valve actuator device (EGR) in an internal combustion engine and related exhaust gas recirculation valve assembly
Exhaust gas recirculation valve actuator device in an internal combustion engine, comprising an actuator body housing where the stem of an exhaust gas recirculation valve, extends along an axial direction. A motor acts to move the recirculation valve along the axial direction X-X, to pass from an open configuration to a closed configuration. A transmission is interposed between the motor and the exhaust gas recirculation valve. The device also includes support and guide mechanism and a sealing mechanism, in correspondence of a connection interface of the actuator body with an associable valve body, which houses an exhaust gas passage duct, wherein the actuator body is mechanically separable/connectable from/to said associable valve body.

Engine device
An engine device including: an EGR device configured to circulate, as EGR gas, a portion of exhaust gas exhausted from an exhaust manifold to an intake manifold; and an EGR cooler configured to cool EGR gas and supply the EGR gas to the EGR device. The EGR cooler includes a heat exchanger and a pair of flange portions. The heat exchanger has a coolant passage and an EGR gas fluid passage alternately stacked. The flange portions are disposed on the heat exchanger. An outlet of the coolant is disposed in one of the flange portions, while an inlet of the coolant is disposed in the other flange portion. An inlet of the EGR gas is disposed in one of the flange portions, while an outlet of the EGR gas is disposed in the other flange portion.

HIGH EFFICIENCY TURBOCHARGER WITH EGR SYSTEM
In accordance with one aspect of the present disclosure, a turbocharger includes a compressor having a compressor wheel, a turbine provided within a housing, and an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) flow path. The EGR flow path includes a first fluid connection in the housing and located in proximity to the turbine, a second fluid connection located in proximity to a trailing edge of the compressor wheel, an EGR control valve disposed between the first fluid connection and the second fluid connection, the EGR control valve configured to selectively operate the turbocharger in a low-heat mode having an EGR up to 50% and an operational mode having an EGR rate typically less than 35%.
CHARGING DEVICE WITH A WASTEGATE VALVE DEVICE
A charging device may include a turbine housing and a wastegate valve device. The wastegate valve device may include a flap, a spindle arm, a wastegate spindle, an axial stop, and a lever arm non-rotatably attached to the wastegate spindle. The wastegate spindle may be rotatably mounted in a bushing disposed on the turbine housing. A wastegate duct may be disposed in the turbine housing. The wastegate duct may have a duct aperture enclosed by a valve seat. The duct aperture, when in a closed state, may be closed by the flap of the wastegate valve device. A sealing face of the flap may be defined by a sequence of at least two conical peripheral surfaces arranged next to one another and each having a different inclination.
EGR valve and EGR valve device provided with same
A poppet-type EGR valve includes: a housing that includes a flow passage; a valve seat; a valve body allowed to be seated on the valve seat; a valve shaft on which the valve body is provided at one end section thereof; and a drive unit reciprocally driving the valve shaft. The flow passage has an inlet and an outlet and includes a bent passage portion that is bent downstream from the valve seat in a direction perpendicular to the direction toward the inlet. The bent passage portion includes at least one of a section in which the passage area is constant and a section in which the passage area increases toward the downstream direction, and does not include a section in which the passage area decreases toward the downstream direction. In the section in which the passage area increases toward the downstream direction, the passage area changes gradually.
