  • Patent number: 10519843
    Abstract: A valve body for a gas exchange valve of a cylinder of an internal combustion engine can be brought to lie against a valve seat of the gas exchange valve for closing the gas exchange valve and can be removed from the valve seat to open the gas exchange valve. The valve body is formed in multiple parts and has a first valve disc part interacting with the valve seat and a second valve disc part that is connected to the first valve disc part in a fixed manner and faces a combustion chamber of the cylinder. Between the first valve disc part and the second valve disc part a hollow space serving at least for the cooling of the second valve disc part is formed.
