Abstract
In an exhaust gas recirculation arrangement comprising a housing forming a passage for an exhaust gas flow of an internal combustion engine and having a valve seat with a valve disc movably supported in the housing on a valve stem so as to be seated on the valve seat for closing the valve but being movable therefrom against the flow direction of the exhaust gas for opening the valve, a flow guide member is disposed in the valve housing upstream of the valve disc in such a way that, in its open position, the valve disc abuts the guide member and the guide member conducts the exhaust gas past the valve disc.
