    ein konisches Ventilteil koaxial und drehbar in dem konischen Führungsteil aufgenommen ist, wobei das konische Ventilteil an einer konischen Wand desselben mit einer Mehrzahl von zweiten Öffnungen gebildet ist, das konische Ventilteil gedreht wird zwischen einer offenen Position, in der die ersten und zweiten Öffnungen zueinander passend sind, und einer geschlossenen Position, in der die ersten und zweiten Öffnungen zueinander nicht passend sind; und
    einen Steuerstab, der ein Ende hat, das durch eine mittlere Öffnung des konischen Führungsteils hindurchgeht, um an einem Mittelabschnitt des konischen Ventilteiles befestigt zu werden, wobei das andere Ende des Steuerstabes, mit dem Betätiger verbunden ist.
  16. Abgasrückführungsvorrichtung nach Anspruch 15, in der die konische Wand des konischen Führungsteiles angeordnet ist, die EGR- Gasströmung von der Gaseinlassöffnung des ersten langgestreckten Gehäuses in Richtung zu einem Einlass des Bypass- Kanales zu glätten.
  17. Abgasrückführungsvorrichtung nach Anspruch 4, in der die Gasströmungsraten-Steuerungseinrichtung aufweist:
    ein Rahmenteil, eingesetzt in die Gaseinlassöffnung des ersten langgestreckten Gehäuses; und
    ein Paar von thermisch empfindsamen Ventilplatten, wobei jede ein Basisende hat, das durch das Rahmenteil gehalten wird, und einen freien Abschnitt, der eine Verformung zeigt, wenn mit einer Wärme beauflagt wird, wobei der freie Abschnitt durch die Wärme zwischen einer ersten Position, in der der Gasstrom aus der Gaseinlassöffnung in Richtung zu dem Bypasskanal, dem ersten Gasströmungskanal und dem zweiten Gasströmungskanal frei ausgeführt wird, ohne durch die Ventilplatten behindert zu werden, und einer zweiten Position, in der der Gasstrom von der ersten Gaseinlassöffnung in Richtung zu dem ersten und zweiten Gasströmungskanal im Vergleich mit dem ersten Gasstrom von der Gaseinlassöffnung in Richtung zu dem Bypasskanal reduziert ist, gebogen wird,
    wobei die thermisch empfindsamen Ventilplatten so angeordnet sind, dass der freie Abschnitt von jeder Ventilplatte die zweite Position einnimmt, wenn das Gas, geführt in die Gaseinlassöffnung des ersten langgestreckten Gehäuses, relativ gering ist.
  18. Abgasrückführungsvorrichtung nach Anspruch 17, in der die thermisch empfindsamen Ventilplatten aus einem Bimetall oder einer Formgedächtnislegierung gebildet sind.
  19. Abgasrückführungsvorrichtung nach Anspruch 18, außerdem aufweisend ein konisches Gaseinleitungsteil, das an der Gaseinlassöffnung des ersten langgestreckten Gehäuses befestigt ist, um den Gasstrom in Richtung zu der Gaseinlassöffnung zu glätten.
  20. Abgasrückführungsvorrichtung einer Brennkraftmaschine, aufweisend:
    ein erstes langgestrecktes Gehäuse mit Gaseinlass- und Gassauslass- Öffnungen an axial gegenüberliegenden Enden;
    ein zweites langgestrecktes Gehäuse, aufgenommen in dem ersten langgestreckten Gehäuse, um dazwischen einen sich axial erstreckenden Raum zu bilden, wobei das zweite langgestreckte Gehäuse einen ersten Gasströmungskanal und einen Wasserströmungskanal, der den ersten Gasströmungskanal umgibt, enthält, der erste Gasströmungskanal ein Einlassteil, freigelegt zu der Gaseinlassöffnung, und ein Auslassteil, freigelegt zu der Gasauslassöffnung, hat;
    ein drittes langgestrecktes Gehäuse, aufgenommen in dem sich axial erstreckenden Raum, um zwischen dem ersten langgestreckten Gehäuse und dem dritten langgestreckten Gehäuse einen Bypasskanal, und zwischen dem dritten langgestreckten Gehäuse und dem zweiten langgestreckten Gehäuse einen zweiten Gasströmungskanal zu bilden, wobei der Bypasskanal und der zweite Gasströmungskanal jeweils ein Einlassteil, freigelegt zu der Gaseinlassöffnung, und ein Auslassteil, freigelegt zu der Gasauslassöffnung, hat; und
    eine Gasströmungsraten- Steuerungseinrichtung, installiert in der Gaseinlassöffnung des ersten langgestreckten Gehäuses, um eine Rate zu steuern zwischen der Gasmenge, die in sowohl dem ersten, als auch in dem zweiten Gasströmungskanal strömt, und der Gasmenge, die in dem Bypasskanal strömt.
