VALVE DEVICE
A valve device for exhaust gas recirculation in the exhaust gas system of a motor vehicle that is driven by an internal combustion engine. In order to create a valve device that can be used as an EGR check valve in which a pressure loss relative to known designs is reduced even with small valve geometries, it is proposed for the valve device to comprise a valve body that is embodied as a separate part that is mushroom-shaped or umbrella-shaped and is axially guided in a supporting plate in a region through which the gas flows axial, rests with its umbrella against the supporting plate in a way that seals the region through which the gas flows in a closed position, and has an end stop for an open position.
Pressure measurement apparatus for an engine
A pressure measurement apparatus for an engine is provided. The pressure measurement apparatus includes a gas flow path component of one of an intake system or an exhaust system, and a differential pressure sensor having a sensor body defining first and second pressure ports, wherein the sensor body is configured to cooperate with an opening in a wall of the gas flow path component so that at least one of the first and second pressure ports terminates inside the gas flow path component in an assembled configuration.

EXHAUST SYSTEM WITH EXHAUST GAS HEAT RECOVERY ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR OPERATION OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM
An exhaust system with a first and a second exhaust conduit arranged in a parallel flow arrangement. The exhaust system further includes an exhaust gas heat recovery (EGHR) heat exchanger coupled to an exterior of the first exhaust conduit. The exhaust system further includes a first flow control valve controlling the flow of exhaust gas into the EGHR heat exchanger from the first exhaust conduit and a second flow control valve controlling the flow of exhaust gas through the second exhaust conduit.

Modulating bypass valve
A modulating bypass valve includes a valve housing defining a modulating fluid passageway and a bypassing fluid passageway through the valve housing. The valve also includes a throttle plate assembly that is inserted through the valve housing and has a rotating shaft on an axis that is generally perpendicular to the modulating fluid passageway and the bypassing fluid passageway. A modulating throttle plate is attached to the shaft and located within the modulating fluid passageway. A bypassing throttle plate is attached to the shaft and located within the bypassing fluid passageway. An actuator rotates the shaft.
