  • Patent number: 7267139
    Abstract: The invention relates to a valve device comprising a valve housing (2) with a first and a second flow channel (3a, 3b), and a first and second damper shaft (8a, 8b), which are rotatable relative to the valve housing (2). A first damper (7a) is arranged in the first flow channel (3a) fixed to the first damper shaft (8a) and a second damper (7b) is arranged in the second flow channel (3b) fixed to the second damper shaft (8b). A rotatable regulating member (13) is arranged to control the rotational position of the damper shafts (8a, 8b) via two motion transfer members (20a, 20b), the respective motion transfer member (20a, 20b) being in engagement with a guiding (21) of the regulating member (13) so that the rotational position of the motion transfer member and thereby the rotational position of the associated damper shaft (8a, 8b) is controlled by the rotational position of the regulating member via this guiding (21).

  • Patent number: 7159393
    Abstract: A device for purifying exhaust gases from a combustion engine (1) is provided with a first filter (10) arranged in an exhaust conduit (7) between the engine (1) and an exhaust outlet (8) for removing particular constituents from the exhaust gases, and a recirculation conduit (11) for diverting a part of the exhaust gases passing through the first filter (10) recirculating this part of the exhaust gases to the air intake (2) of the engine. A second filter (30) is arranged between the inlet end (20) of the recirculation conduit and the air intake (2) of the engine. A method for purifying exhaust gases from the combustion engine (1) and using this device to purify exhaust gas, in particular, from a diesel engine, are also provided.

  • Patent number: 7140392
    Abstract: The invention relates to a valve device comprising a valve housing (2) with a first and a second flow channel (3a, 3b) and a first and second damper shaft (8a, 8b) that is rotatable relative to the valve housing (2). A first damper (7a) is arranged in the first flow channel (3a) fixed to the first damper shaft (8a) and a second damper (7b) is arranged in the second flow channel (3b) fixed to the second damper shaft (8b). A regulating member (11a) is arranged to act on said first and second damper shafts (8a, 8b) so as to achieve a rotation of either damper (7a, 7b) by rotation of one damper shaft at a time.

  • Publication number: 20050115222
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for purifying exhaust gases from a combustion engine (1), comprising a first filter (10) arranged in an exhaust (7) between the engine (1) and an exhaust outlet (8) for removing particulate constituents from the exhaust gases, and a recirculation conduit (11) for diverting a part of the exhaust gases that have passed through said first filter (10) and recirculating this part of the exhaust gases to the air intake (2) of the engine. The device further comprises a second filter (30) arranged between the inlet end (20) of the recirculation conduit and the air intake (2) of the engine. The invention also relates to a method for purifying exhaust gases from a combustion engine. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of the device for exhaust gas purification in particular at a diesel engine.
