  • Patent number: 7069920
    Abstract: An air supply unit for an internal combustion engine; the air supply unit is provided a number of butterfly valves and a distributor device, the latter being provided, for each butterfly valve, with a distribution duct capable of placing an internal duct of said butterfly valve in communication with a chamber of the distributor device connected to an intake box by means of a first air duct regulated by a solenoid valve; inside the distributor device, each distribution duct is connected to the intake box by means of a corresponding second air duct regulated by a respective bypass screw and is connected to a corresponding regulation duct opening into an air intake, which is accessible from the outside of the distributor device and is normally closed by an associated removable plug.

  • Patent number: 6435473
    Abstract: A butterfly body provided with a valve body having a through duct, a butterfly valve moving on command within the through duct in order to regulate the flow of fluid through this through duct and a device for moving the butterfly valve mechanically coupled to this butterfly valve in order to be able to vary, on command, the position of the latter within the duct, so as to control the flow of air flowing through the through duct, the valve body being made entirely from plastic and having, embedded within it, a bushing of metal, within which the electrical actuator controlling the displacements of the butterfly valve is adapted to be housed.
