Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for managing gases suitable for being installed at the outlet of a particle filter or a catalytic converter. This device is characterized by a very compact configuration combining at least the heat exchanger for an EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) system, particularly suitable for a low-pressure system, and an exhaust gas outlet pipe with a special configuration that is part of the exhaust line. The exhaust outlet incorporates a valve that allows using the heat exchanger of the EGR system as a heat recovery unit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a heat recovery system for internal combustion engines which is arranged in an exhaust gas conduit. The system allows transferring heat from the exhaust gas conduit to a liquid coolant through a heat exchanger and includes a flow guide element to prevent undesired recirculation, allowing subsequent energy optimization of the heat recovery device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a valve with a chassis configured with a specific shape which allows building a compact heat recovery unit, wherein the valve is the main structure of said recovery unit, and wherein it is the chassis itself that establishes the chambers required for managing the gases in the different operating modes of the recovery unit. This compact configuration prevents the existence of conduits intended for connecting components of the recovery unit, requiring less space in the vehicle engine compartment for the installation thereof.

Abstract: The present invention proposes a new design in the configuration of the attachment between the battery of tubes and the shell of a heat exchanger, improving the manufacturing costs and efficiency with respect to the exchangers of the state of the art. The present invention describes a heat exchanger and a process for manufacturing it, which combines the thermal fatigue strength of floating core exchangers with the compact, simple and more economical design of monoblock exchangers, resulting from, among others, a smaller number of necessary manufacturing steps.
