Abstract: A second recirculation passage recirculates blow-by gas at an upstream section, which is upstream of an impeller of a turbocharger in an intake passage. A first passage branches and extends from a downstream section, which is downstream of the impeller in the intake passage. A second passage that forms part of the second recirculation passage connects the first passage and the upstream section to each other. A third passage, which is provided separately from the second passage, connects the first passage and the upstream section to each other. A change mechanism changes, in different manners, the flow rate of compressed gas recirculating to the upstream section through the second passage, and the flow rate of compressed gas recirculating to the upstream section through the third passage.

Abstract: An actuator for automobiles has a housing in which a communication channel for ventilation is formed, the communication channel allowing the inside and the outside of the housing to communicate with each other. Only one communication channel is formed, and the communication channel has an ascending portion that increases in height toward the inside of the housing. The ascending portion is formed so that a vertically lowermost point of the end (a second opening) of the ascending portion on the inner side of the housing is positioned higher than an uppermost point of the end (a first opening) of the ascending portion on the outer side of the housing. With such a configuration, condensation in the housing is minimized, and the risk of malfunction due to entrance of water is minimized.
