Abstract: The invention relates to a valve arrangement (2) for an exhaust gas recirculation device of an internal combustion engine, especially in a motor vehicle. Said valve arrangement (2) comprises a first valve (9) which is used to control a first gas path (7) and is mobile between an open position, a closed position, and at least one intermediate position. The inventive valve arrangement (2) also comprises a second valve (10) for controlling a second gas path (8) which is separate from the first gas path (7), said second valve being mobile between an open position, a closed position and at least one intermediate position independently from the first valve (9). The valve arrangement (2) also comprises a common housing (6) which contains both valves (9, 10) and through which the two gas paths (7, 8) are guided.

Abstract: The invention relates to an exhaust gas recirculation device (5) for an internal combustion engine (1), especially in a motor vehicle, said device comprising an exhaust gas recirculation line (6) and an exhaust gas cooler (7) which is built into the exhaust gas recirculation line (6) and connected to a cooling circuit (8) operating by means of a liquid coolant. The exhaust gas recirculation cooler (7) comprises a cooler housing (9) which comprises at least one exhaust gas inlet (10), an exhaust gas outlet (11), a coolant inlet (12) and a coolant outlet (13), and through which a coolant flows. In order to be able to improve the adjustment of the cooling power, the exhaust gas recirculation cooler (7) contains, in the cooler housing (9) thereof, a first cooling tube arrangement (14) and a second cooling tube arrangement (15) which enables a larger heating flow between the exhaust gas and the coolant than the first cooling tube arrangement (14).

Abstract: The invention relates to a filter-cooler combination for liquids. The filter is a screw-type cartridge that comprises inlet and outlet openings on a front face and that can be detachably screwed to a connecting element having first connecting channels that are associated with the inlet and outlet openings by means of a central thread, while being radially sealed on the front face; the connecting element comprises the cooler and is provided with second connecting channels for the inlet and outlet channels of the coolant leading towards and away, from the filter-cooler combination, and with third connecting channels for the inlet and outlet channels of the liquid to be filtered leading towards and away, from the filter-cooler combination; the connecting element can be detachably connected to a base carrying the connecting element while the third connecting channels are associated with connecting channels of the base.

Abstract: The invention relates to a filter-cooler combination for liquids, especially for the lubricating oil of an automotive internal combustion engine. The aim of the invention is to provide a combination of the aforementioned kind that can be produced economically and that can be screwed to a base as an alternative to a screw-type filter cartridge with the screw conditions on the base remaining unchanged.
