  • Patent number: 8336528
    Abstract: An EGR device includes a first cooling passage that introduces a flowing medium discharged from an engine into a main radiator so that the flowing medium is cooled therein, and then returns the flowing medium to the engine, and a second cooling passage that introduces a part of the flowing medium cooled in the first cooling passage to a sub-radiator so that the flowing medium is further cooled therein. The second cooling passage introduces the flowing medium to an EGR cooler to return the flowing medium, which is discharged from the EGR cooler, to the engine.

  • Patent number: 8151753
    Abstract: In a warm-up system that pre-warms up of an engine (E) by transferring heat from a heat source to an engine cooling water circulation circuit (1) of a vehicle, a residential hot water circuit (2) that uses a household heat source is provided as the heat source, and a one-touch connector (3) is provided in the engine cooling water circulation circuit (1) and the residential hot water circuit (2). The one-touch connector (3) connects the two circuits (1, 2) prior to start-up of the engine (E) such that heat is transferred to the engine cooling water circulation circuit (1), and disconnects the two circuits (1, 2) following heat transfer in preparation for start-up of the engine (E).

  • Publication number: 20090314266
    Abstract: An EGR device includes a first cooling passage that introduces a flowing medium discharged from an engine 2 into a main radiator 7 so that the flowing medium is cooled therein, and then returns the flowing medium to the engine 2, and a second cooling passage that introduces a part of the flowing medium cooled in the first cooling passage to a sub-radiator 8 so that the flowing medium is further cooled therein. The second cooling passage introduces the flowing medium to an EGR cooler 6 to return the flowing medium, which is discharged from the EGR cooler 6, to the engine 2.
