Abstract: A fluid control device (100) having a housing (10) with at least one first port (16) and at least one second port (18, 20), wherein a valve body (30) is enclosed in the housing (10), the valve body (30) providing a fluid path (60) having a first path portion (62) proximal to the first port (16) and an opposing second path portion (64) in a distance from the first port (16) and proximal to the at least one second port (18, 20), the fluid path (60) being switchable between at least a first position (80) and at least a second position (82) in relation to the at least one second port (18, 20) by rotating the valve body (30) around the first main axis (22) of the at least one first port (16).

Abstract: The invention relates to an air duct arrangement (100), in particular a charge air duct for a turbocharged engine, having an inlet air duct (60), a cooler (10) with an inlet (37) and an outlet (38), the cooler (10) having at least one air flow path portion (12, 14, 16, 18) extending between the inlet (37) and the outlet (38) along a longitudinal elongation (66) of the cooler (10) and having an outlet aperture (13, 15, 17, 19), and at least two runners (22, 24, 26, 28) of an air intake manifold (20) of an engine (40). The cooler (10) is arranged between the inlet air duct (60) and the runners (22, 24, 26, 28). Each runner (22, 24, 26, 28) has an inlet aperture (23, 25. 27, 29) and the outlet (38) of the cooler (10) is providing connection interfaces (73, 75, 77, 79) for the inlet apertures (23, 25. 27, 29) of the runners (22, 24, 26, 28).

Abstract: A fluid control device (100) having a housing (10) with at least one first port (16) and at least one second port (18, 20), wherein a valve body (30) is enclosed in the housing (10), the valve body (30) providing a fluid path (60) having a first path portion (62) proximal to the first port (16) and an opposing second path portion (64) in a distance from the first port (16) and proximal to the at least one second port (18, 20), the fluid path (60) being switchable between at least a first position (80) and at least a second position (82) in relation to the at least one second port (18, 20) by rotating the valve body (30) around the first main axis (22) of the at least one first port (16).

Abstract: A pipe system for a fluid, in particular a gas of an intake system (10) or a turbocharger of an internal combustion engine is disclosed. Also disclosed is a method and an apparatus for connecting at least one duct part (12) of a pipe system (10). The pipe system (10) has at least one blow-molded duct part (12) made of plastic and at least one fitting (18) for connecting the at least one blow-molded duct part (12) with another part (20) of the pipe system (10). The fitting (18) is inserted tight in the at least one blow-molded duct part (12). The at least one blow-molded duct part (12) is shrinked onto the at least one fitting (18).
