A heat exchanger for a water-cooled internal combustion engine having a lubricant cooling system and an exhaust gas recirculation system includes a housing with cooling water inlet and outlet stubs by way of which cooling water is conducted through the interior of the housing, and a lubricant cooler is formed in the housing and separated from the cooling water space by a zigzag-shaped intermediate wall and a recirculated exhaust gas cooler is disposed in the housing in heat exchange relation with the cooling water flowing through the housing.

Heat exchanger for a water-cooled internal combustion engine

In a venting arrangement for a crankcase of an internal combustion engine including a centrifugal separator having a rotatable housing with an inlet channel for the admission of an oil-air mixture and an exit channel for the discharge of air from which the oil has been removed, the inlet channel extends essentially in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the housing, but in spaced relationship from the axis so that oil which has been separated from the oil-air mixture moves, subjected to centrifugal forces, radially outwardly at a 90.degree. angle to the generally axial oil-air mixture flow through the separator.
