Patent number: 6874488Abstract: A gas deflector valve is incorporated with an engine cooling system, and located before an inlet to a heat exchanger used to cool hot gas from the engine as part of an EGR system. The gas diverter valve conducts the gas from the engine to the heat exchanger of the EGR system when its temperature is above normal and its cooling is required, or diverts the gas to recycle the gas directly to the engine, without it passing through the heat exchanger when the gas temperature is below the minimum limits for cooling. The gas deflector valve is actuated by a pneumatic actuator responsive to an electric signal from the engine's electronic control center.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2004Date of Patent: April 5, 2005Assignee: Wahler Metalurgica LtdaInventor: João José Cardinali Ieda

Patent number: 6868841Abstract: A deflector by-pass valve for engine exhaust gas, used with an exhaust gas recirculation system on an automobile, is integrated with the cooling system, and located before the inlet for the engine's hot gas to the water/gas heat exchanger of the EGR system. The deflector by-pass valve is activated by a vacuum/pressure pneumatic system and actuated by an electric signal from the engine's electronic control center. Its main purpose is to conduct the gas through the heat exchanger/gas cooler when cooling is required, or to recycle the gas directly to the engine, without it passing through the heat exchanger when the gas is below the minimum limit for cooling.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2004Date of Patent: March 22, 2005Assignee: Wahler Metalurgica LtdaInventor: João José Cardinali Ieda

Patent number: 6868864Abstract: Used in the automobile industry, and more specifically in the driver's cab heating system, the valve is installed between the link between the engine and the radiator and the cab's heating system. It consists of a housing unit (1) which has a circular compartment (2) which houses the rotor (25) which has a side wall which protrudes a few millimeters (28) and has attached to it, by means of an “8”-shaped lever (36), a sealing unit, consisting of an O ring (33) and its support (34). This sealing unit and the side wall (28) are responsible for blocking off the flow of liquid to the cab's heating system and the by-pass, respectively. The previously mentioned compartment has a tubular inlet (3) and outlet (5) and is attached by a linking channel (14) to the adjacent cavity (10), to which is attached an outlet tube (11) and a return opening (13) and the rotor (25) is operated manually by means of an external lever (42).Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2002Date of Patent: March 22, 2005Assignee: Wahler Metalurgica LtdaInventor: João José Cardinali Ieda
