An exhaust brake system for internal combustion engines includes an exhaust valve within the exhaust duct which is closed or opened for the braking of a vehicle during engine operation by means of an engine brake valve. A magnetic valve is arranged within the control duct and is controlled by an electrical circuit connected to a terminal of the ignition switch and to the positive terminal of the generator in such a manner that the exhaust valves are closed during the starting of the engine and when the engine is idling. The formation of white exhaust smoke during cold starting of the engine and the formation of blue exhaust smoke during idling of the engine is decreased.

Control arrangement for an engine exhaust brake

A heating arrangement for preheating combustion air flowing through an intake manifold of an internal combustion engine, the heating arrangement including a pot-shaped housing forming a combustion chamber into which an ignition device and a fuel injection nozzle project. A shut off valve controls an inflow of fuel and a shield sheet serves to shield the combustion flame. The pot-shaped housing is located in a flow path of the combustion air and is covered on its open side by a holder. The holder is fastened to the intake manifold and supports the ignition device, fuel injection nozzle, and shut off valve. The housing includes openings in an upstream wall portion from which the shield sheet projects into the housing in a vicinity of the opening in such a way that the shield sheet separates the combustion chamber from the fuel injection nozzle chamber.

Heating device for preheating combustion air for an internal combustion

A control arrangement for a supercharged diesel engine, which is equipped with an injection pump and with a governor at the injection pump, as well as with a full-load abutment movable as a function of the engine rotational speed for the limitation or release of the injection quantity. The full-load abutment is thereby constructed as three-dimensional cam which is dependent in the direction of its second dimension on a magnitude changing analogously to the supercharging degree or on the supercharging pressure.
