Abstract:
A motor vehicle internal combustion engine EGR loop, in which: with the fresh air flow rate in the air inlet path (2) of the EGR valve (1) set at a maximum, the path (3) for the EGR gases in the valve is progressively opened, and before the EGR gas flow rate in the valve increases any further, the fresh air inlet path (2) is progressively closed in order to continue to cause the EGR gas flow rate to increase on an increasing monotonous curve.
Abstract:
A three-way valve (1) with two flaps (5, 6) respectively positioned in two of the three paths (2, 3) of the valve and comprising means (7-12) for controlling and actuating the flaps (5, 6) to make them pivot from one to the other of two positions in which the paths (2, 3) are either open or closed. Single control means (7) are provided for both flaps (5, 6), and there are actuating means (9-12) designed to be controlled by the single control means (7) and to actuate the two flaps (5, 6) with a temporal phase shift.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an interface part (10) between a motor vehicle engine head and a heat exchanger (12), the interface part (10) comprising a first opening for the flow of a first gas. According to the invention, the first opening has a profile capable of engaging with a valve element comprising a movable portion (52) of the valve (50), with a view to at least partially sealing the first opening by means of said movable portion (52). The invention also relates to an assembly of such an interface part and a valve, and to a gas supply module for an engine comprising such an assembly. The invention is applicable, in particular, to the automotive field.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a gas supply module (20) for an engine, comprising a heat exchanger (22) capable of cooling gases for the intake thereof in an intake space of a cylinder head of the engine, and a gas supply valve (24) capable of directing said gases toward the intake space of said cylinder head and/or through said heat exchanger (22), said module (20) further comprising an interface element (26) closing said intake space of said cylinder head. According to the invention, said interface element (26) and said valve (24) are shaped such that said valve (24) can be attached to said cylinder head via at least a first attachment means extending through at least the interface element (26). The invention also relates to an assembly of an engine cylinder head and such a module, and to a motor vehicle engine comprising such an assembly. The invention can particularly be used in the field of motor vehicles.
Abstract:
A gas intake device for letting gases into an inlet volume of a cylinder head of a motor vehicle combustion engine includes a valve (10) for supplying the cylinder head with gas, this valve communicating with the inlet volume of the cylinder head directly and indirectly via a heat exchanger (14). The valve (10) and the heat exchanger (14) are mounted on a plate (21) intended to be mounted directly on the cylinder head. The device is compact and relatively insensitive to vibration.
Abstract:
An injector for gaseous fuel, the injector comprising a body provided with a fuel feed duct and with a fuel delivery duct, the fuel feed duct and the fuel delivery duct opening out into a chamber of the body in which there are mounted a valve member and an actuator means for actuating the valve member between a closed position and an open position in which the valve member defines a fuel flow section, wherein the fuel delivery duct comprises a calibrated segment of section smaller than the flow section defined by the valve member when in the open position.
