An EGR valve device equipped with: a housing which contains a flow passage; a valve element for opening and closing the flow passage; a valve shaft to which the valve element is provided; and a mating member which includes an assembly hole in which the housing is assembled, and also includes another flow passage. The flow passage is connected to the other flow passage while the housing is assembled in the assembly hole of the mating member, and a sealing member is provided in at least one location between the outer surface of the housing and the inner surface of the assembly hole. The sealing member includes a vibration-reducing part which has a vibration-reducing function and is formed from an elastic material, and also includes a sealing part which has a sealing function.

Catalytic coatings and techniques for applying the catalytic coatings may be utilized in connection with a number of engine system components including fuel injectors components, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve components, EGR cooler components, piston components, spark plugs, engine valves (intake valves and exhaust valves), engine valve seats, oxygen sensors, NOx sensors, and particulate sensors.

An EGR valve includes: an inner housing including a flow passage; a valve element which opens and closes the flow passage; a valve shaft on which the valve element is provided; an outer housing in which the inner housing is assembled; and a drive unit which drives the valve shaft. The flow passage of the inner housing includes an inlet and an outlet. The outer housing includes an assembly hole and separate flow passages. When the inner housing is assembled in the assembly hole, the inlet and the outlet of the inner housing communicate with the separate flow passages of the outer housing; an inlet sealing member is provided between the inner housing and the outer housing to correspond to the periphery of the inlet; and an outlet sealing member is provided between the inner housing and the outer housing to correspond to the periphery of the outlet.

This EGR valve system is provided with a valve assembly, and a plurality of housing adapters. The valve assembly is provided with a housing including a flow passage, a valve seat provided in the flow passage, a valve element provided in the flow passage in such a way as to be capable of seating against the valve seat, a valve shaft on which the valve element is provided, and a driving unit for driving the valve shaft. The housing adapters include assembly holes, inlet flow passages which communicate with the assembly holes, and outlet flow passages. One of the housing adapters is selectively combined with the valve assembly, the housing of the valve assembly is assembled in the assembly hole of the selected housing adapter. In this assembled state, the inlet flow passage communicates with an inlet port, and the outlet flow passage communicates with an outlet port.

An EGR device is provided with: an EGR passage for allowing a portion of exhaust gas from an engine to flow to an intake passage; an EGR valve for adjusting an EGR flow rate through the EGR passage; a throttle valve provided in the intake passage; and an electronic control device which calculates a fully closed reference intake pressure based on an operating state of the engine during EGR valve fully-closing, and which diagnoses an abnormality due to valve-opening locking of the EGR valve based on the calculated fully closed reference intake pressure. The ECU determines a foreign matter biting abnormality of the EGR valve based on the intake pressure, and based on the result of adding the fully closed reference intake pressure, calculated according to the rotational speed and the load of the engine, to an intake-pressure increase allowance calculated according to the rotational speed.

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%.

A valve for m exhaust gas recirculation Mae 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 of the 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.

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.
