  • Patent number: 9309802
    Abstract: A control valve unit for a liquid circuit of an internal combustion engine, includes a valve housing (1) having at least one inlet opening (2) or outlet opening (2?) and at least two outlet openings (31, 32, 33) or inlet openings (31?, 32?, 33?) and at least two closing elements (41, 42, 43) actuated by a control device (22). The closing elements selectively open or close an associated outlet or inlet opening. The closing elements may be continuously adjusted between maximum open and closed positions. The control device (22) includes at least one displaceable or rotatable cam (6) and includes at least two cam tracks (71, 72, 73), each of which is assigned to a closing element (41, 42, 43) and acts on at least one driving pin (11) that is in contact with said closing element (41, 42, 43). The cams (6) are adjusted by an actuator (8).

  • Patent number: 8276707
    Abstract: Anti-noise device for an internal combustion engine (9) equipped with a turbocompressor (10) for supercharging includes a turbine (11) placed in the exhaust gas flow and driven by these gases with the turbocompressor (10) connected by a shaft (13) to a compressor (14) mounted in the air intake conduit (3) of the engine (9). The anti-noise device includes a hinged flap (4) mounted within the air intake conduit (3) of the engine (9), upstream from the compressor (14) and capable of closing this conduit (3) under the action of a gaseous reflux coming towards it.
