  • Patent number: 9932869
    Abstract: A vehicle may include an internal combustion engine having a crankcase and a supercharging apparatus, and a crankcase ventilation apparatus having at least one oil-separating apparatus including at least one oil separator. An oil return line may communicate separated oil from the crankcase ventilation apparatus to the crankcase. An ejector pump may be driven via a compressed air flow of the supercharging apparatus and may be configured to generate an underpressure for driving a blow-by gas. The crankcase ventilation apparatus may include a pump control valve configured to at least one of regulate and control the compressed air flow through the ejector pump.

  • Patent number: 9238980
    Abstract: A vehicle may include an internal combustion engine having a crankcase and a crankcase ventilation device. The crankcase ventilation device may have at least one oil separating device and an oil return that feeds separated oil back to the crankcase. The vehicle may include a conveying device for driving a fluid other than blow-by gas. The conveying device may also drive the blow-by gas in the crankcase ventilation device.
