Abstract
A delivery-valve unit is provided on a compensating tank in the cooling circuit of an internal-combustion engine. Individual relief valves inside a receiving housing arranged horizontally in a cover of the compensating tank are additionally surrounded by valve housings which are snapped together. The sealing surfaces of the relief valves are uncoupled from the walls of the compensating tank. In the event of dimensional changes in the compensating tank, this arrangement prevents both deformations of the sealing surfaces occurring as a result of a water-level-induced pressure rise and leaks at the relief valves.
