In a gas flow control flap operating mechanism including a ball-head joint provided between an actuator drive and the gas flow control valve flap with a ball head which is received in a multipart ball-head socket, the parts of the ball-head socket are interconnected so that the ball-head socket is closed around the ball head and the ball-head socket is contained by a receiving part and includes locking means which hold the multipart ball-head socket in the receiving part and in engagement with the ball-head.

Gas flow control flap operating mechanism

In a device for exhaust gas recirculation, with an intake duct and an exhaust gas recirculation duct, which projects into the intake duct and via which exhaust gas is recirculated to the fresh air in the intake duct, the exhaust gas recirculation duct has an outlet orifice oriented toward the fresh gas inlet flow and a diverting device is disposed in front of the outlet orifice for redirecting the exhaust gas discharged front the outlet orifice in the direction of flow of the fresh air in the intake duct.

Device for exhaust-gas recirculation

A thermostatically controlled valve in the cooling medium circulation of liquid-cooled internal combustion engines with two coaxially arranged interconnected valves which are actuatable by a temperature-dependent working element disposed therebetween and which control a radiator return line and a bypass line; the valve controlling the bypass line includes a valve disk arranged at the temperature-dependent working element and is provided with through-flow openings controlled as a function of temperature so that a partial quantity of the cooling medium can circumcirculate the temperature-dependent working element; the through-flow openings are thereby arranged in the valve disk of the valve and abut sealingly on the valve seat of this valve when the bypass line is closed.
