A valve for a liquid system of a vehicle having a valve housing with a multiplicity of valve housing openings, a valve body that is arranged in the valve housing so as to be rotatable about a rotational axis and has at least one flow-conducting connecting passage for the flow-conducting connection of at least two valve housing openings of the multiplicity of valve housing openings. A valve seal is arranged between the valve housing and the valve body. A valve actuator rotates the valve body about the rotational axis, and a multiplicity of flow passages corresponding to the valve housing openings for the flow-conducting connection of the valve to a remainder of the liquid system, are provided. The flow passages are jointly formed from a single first passage shell and a single second passage shell. The first passage shell is simultaneously formed as the valve housing.

Valve and liquid tank for a liquid system, liquid system for a vehicle, and vehicle

A valve for a fluid system of a vehicle having a valve housing with valve housing openings, a valve body arranged so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation, a valve seal, a valve drive, and a plurality of connecting pieces corresponding to the valve housing openings. The connecting pieces have a circular flow passage area in cross section at a free end of the respective connecting piece, and the valve housing openings, corresponding to the connecting pieces, each have a substantially rectangular cross section. The respective valve housing opening is larger than the flow passage area at the free end of the corresponding connecting piece, and the flow passage areas of the connecting pieces widen in a diffuser-like manner from the free end of the respective connecting piece to the respective corresponding valve housing opening and merge in a stepless manner into the respective valve housing opening.
