Definitions
- Fail-safe turntable for a coolant circuit to avoid damage to an internal combustion engine due to insufficient cooling capacity in case of failure of the turntable.
- Such fail-safe turntables are preferably used to provide an emergency operation of thedemiftelnikanks an internal combustion engine when the controlled by the turntable coolant is no longer sufficient for proper cooling of the engine due to a malfunction of the turntable.
- the DE 102 43 778 A1 shows an actuating device with an electromotive rotary drive through which an adjusting element, in particular a rotary valve of a rotary valve, about a rotational axis between a first end position and a second end position is rotatably driven and acted upon by a spring from the first end position out.
- the electromotive rotary drive is designed as a reversing drive and the Federbeauschlagung of the actuating element is effective only between the first end position and an intermediate position, wherein the intermediate position between the first end position and the second end position.
- control element embodied as a rotary slide valve is a control valve in a coolant circuit of an internal combustion engine, cooling of the internal combustion engine in emergency operation is maintained by the rotation of the actuating element resulting from the spring action of the control element in the event of failure of the electromotive rotary drive.
- a disadvantage of the adjusting device shown, however, is that the emergency operation is initiated immediately after failure of the rotary drive due to the constant presence of spring action of the actuating element. As a result, the cooling medium, depending on the ambient temperature, engine load and driving speed, no longer heat up to the operating temperature, resulting in a loss of efficiency of the internal combustion engine during emergency operation results.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a fail-safe turntable for a coolant circuit, which can initiate an emergency operation for the coolant circuit as required.
- a fail-safe turntable for a coolant circuit in particular for a multiple partial circuits having coolant circuit of an internal combustion engine, a coolant pump for circulation of the coolant within the coolant circuit, and a plurality of housing fürströmö réelleen exhibiting rotary valve housing in which at least one rotary valve with at least one rotary valve flow-through rotatably mounted is, wherein the housing flow openings are fluidly connected to at least one partial circuit and can be brought by a rotational movement of the rotary valve in at least partially overlap with the rotary valve flow and wherein a thermostatic valve when exceeding a temperature limit of the coolant parallel to the rotary valve guided flow path of a the partial circuits to the coolant supply pump opens.
- a temperature-dependent switchable thermostatic valve is arranged parallel to the rotary valve, in a failure of the rotary valve control an emergency operation can be ensured by the fact that the thermostatic valve for the coolant an alternative flow path to the coolant pump opens. Due to the temperature-dependent circuit of the thermostatic valve, this flow path is switched only when the temperature of the coolant has reached a critical for the operation of the internal combustion engine limit temperature. As a result, the engine is not prevented from reaching the operating temperature despite a malfunction of the turntable, which contributes to a reduction in fuel consumption and emissions.
- the turntable is very robust, since no components required for emergency operation attack directly on the rotary valve, which allows easy movement of the rotary valve and low component wear. Also, the thermostatic valve has a very low wear, since it has to be operated very rarely.
- a radiator feed directs coolant from the engine to a heat exchanger and a radiator return directs the coolant exiting the heat exchanger to the rotary valve.
- the heated by the internal combustion engine coolant is passed through the radiator flow to the heat exchanger, in which it can cool.
- the exiting from the heat exchanger, cooled coolant is passed through the radiator return to the corresponding housing flow opening of the rotary valve.
- From the radiator flow can also branch off a bypass and direct heated coolant to another housing flow-through.
- the temperature of the coolant in the radiator feed is compared with the limit temperature of the coolant for switching the thermostatic valve.
- the temperature of the heated coolant in the radiator feed for comparison with the specific limit temperature can be responded to a critical increase in the coolant temperature of the internal coolant in the engine faster.
- the temperature measurement is independent of the currently achieved cooling rate of the downstream heat exchanger, which can vary considerably during operation.
- the thermostatic valve to a check valve which is mounted in a valve seat and is pressed by a spring sealingly against this, and arranged on the shut-off valve push rod which is actuated by an expansion element, which deals with the coolant of the radiator expands in conjunction with the expansion element when the coolant reaches its limit temperature and lifts the shut-off valve out of the valve seat against the pressure of the spring via the push rod.
- the thermostatic valve has an expansion element, preferably in the form of a wax capsule, which is in contact with the coolant from the radiator feed, compliance with the limit temperature can be monitored without additional electronics.
- the limit temperature is determined by the material properties of the wax used, which expands upon reaching the limit temperature and thus exerts a force on the push rod arranged thereon.
- the shut-off valve mounted at the other end of the push rod which is preferably designed as a poppet valve, is pressed by a spring sealingly against a complementary valve seat. When the expansion element now exerts a force on the push rod, the shut-off valve can lift off the valve seat, which opens a guided parallel to the rotary valve flow path.
- the thermostatic valve on both sides of the shut-off valve arranged and acted upon with coolant chambers, wherein a first chamber with coolant from the radiator return can be acted upon and a second chamber has a fluidic connection to the suction port of the coolant pump.
- the chambers are preferably designed as cages, so that the coolant as easily as possible can flow in and out.
- the first chamber is always filled with coolant from the radiator return, while the second chamber usually contains coolant from the rotary valve.
- a gap is formed between the rotary valve and the rotary valve housing, through which the coolant from the second chamber of the thermostatic valve can flow to the suction port of the coolant pump.
- the coolant can reach regardless of the current position of the rotary valve through the annular gap formed to the suction port of the coolant pump. Additional radial passage openings in the rotary valve can facilitate the passage of the coolant from the second chamber of the thermostatic valve in the rotary valve.
- the coolant delivery pump conveys the coolant sucked from the rotary valve into a heating circuit and / or an internal combustion engine intake.
- a heating heat exchanger and / or a heating feed pump and / or a Schuungsabsperrventil are arranged in the heating circuit.
- the heating conveyor pump is preferably operated electrically and can thus promote the coolant through the cooling circuit in addition to the coolant supply pump if necessary.
- the Schuungsabsperrventil can be closed when not required heating power, which causes a faster heating of the refrigerant in the other sub-circuits in normal operation.
- a further shut-off valve in particular a further rotary valve, is arranged in the internal combustion engine intake.
- a further shut-off valve in particular a further rotary valve, is arranged in the internal combustion engine intake.
- the coolant flow to the internal combustion engine can be interrupted and redirected in a targeted manner into the heating circuit.
- the further shut-off valve is designed as a rotary valve, a rotational movement in dependence on each other can be carried out by a direct or indirect connection with the other rotary valve.
- the Schuungsabsperrventil when the limit temperature of the coolant is exceeded, the Schuungsabsperrventil is opened, so that the coolant from the coolant supply pump can be promoted via the heater core in the engine. This is particularly necessary if the designed as a rotary valve further shut-off valve in the engine inlet due to a malfunction can no longer pass coolant. In this case, it is necessary to direct a coolant flow from the rotary actuator via the heating circuit back into the internal combustion engine.
- Fig. 1 is an internal combustion engine 2 with coolant from several sub-circuits, in particular a main cooling circuit 3 and a heating circuit 4, applied.

- the shut-off valve 10 can also be designed as a further rotary valve and coupled to the movement of the rotary valve 9.
- the main cooling circuit 3 passes coolant from the internal combustion engine 2 via the radiator feed 16 to a heat exchanger 14 and a housing throughflow opening of the bypass 30.

- Position of the first rotary valve 9 with respect to the rotary valve housing 8, the incoming coolant from the bypass 30 and the radiator return 15 with variable flow rate can flow into the rotary valve 9 or is prevented from flowing. This may be the case, for example, in the event of a failure of the rotary valve drive and would lead to inadequate cooling of the connected internal combustion engine 2 to lead.
- the rotary valve 9 is associated with a thermostatic valve 13, which opens a parallel flow path, bypassing the rotary valve 9, if necessary, especially when exceeding the limit temperature of the coolant in the radiator feed 16.

Description
Ausfallsicherer Drehsteller für einen Kühlmittelkreislauf zur Vermeidung von Schäden an einer Brennkraftmaschine infolge unzureichender Kühlleistung bei einem Ausfall des Drehstellers.Fail-safe turntable for a coolant circuit to avoid damage to an internal combustion engine due to insufficient cooling capacity in case of failure of the turntable.
Derartige ausfallsichere Drehsteller werden vorzugsweise zur Bereitstellung eines Notlaufbetriebs des Kühlmiftelkreislaufs einer Brennkraftmaschine eingesetzt, wenn das durch den Drehsteller gesteuerte Kühlmittel aufgrund einer Fehlfunktion des Drehstellers nicht mehr zur ordnungsgemäßen Kühlung der Brennkraftmaschine ausreicht.Such fail-safe turntables are preferably used to provide an emergency operation of the Kühlmiftelkreislaufs an internal combustion engine when the controlled by the turntable coolant is no longer sufficient for proper cooling of the engine due to a malfunction of the turntable.
Die
Nachteilig an der gezeigten Stelleinrichtung ist jedoch, dass der Notlaufbetrieb aufgrund der ständig vorhandenen Federbeaufschlagung des Stellelements unmittelbar nach Ausfall des Drehantriebs eingeleitet wird. Dadurch kann sich das Kühlmedium, je nach Umgebungstemperatur, Motorlast und Fahrgeschwindigkeit, nicht mehr bis zur Betriebstemperatur aufheizen, woraus ein Wirkungsgradverlust des Verbrennungsmotors während des Notlaufbetriebs resultiert.A disadvantage of the adjusting device shown, however, is that the emergency operation is initiated immediately after failure of the rotary drive due to the constant presence of spring action of the actuating element. As a result, the cooling medium, depending on the ambient temperature, engine load and driving speed, no longer heat up to the operating temperature, resulting in a loss of efficiency of the internal combustion engine during emergency operation results.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher einen ausfallsicheren Drehsteller für einen Kühlmittelkreislauf bereitzustellen, der bedarfsgesteuert einen Notlaufbetrieb für den Kühlmittelkreislauf einleiten kann.The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a fail-safe turntable for a coolant circuit, which can initiate an emergency operation for the coolant circuit as required.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is solved by the features of patent claim 1.
Ein ausfallsicherer Drehsteller für einen Kühlmittelkreislauf, insbesondere für einen mehrere Teilkreisläufe aufweisenden Kühlmittelkreislauf einer Brennkraftmaschine, hat eine Kühlmittelförderpumpe zur Umwälzung des Kühlmittels innerhalb des Kühlmittelkreislaufs, sowie ein mehrere Gehäuse-Durchströmöffnungen aufweisendes Drehschiebergehäuse, in dem mindestens ein Drehschieber mit wenigstens einer Drehschieber-Durchströmöffnung drehbeweglich gelagert ist, wobei die Gehäuse-Durchströmöffnungen mit wenigstens einem Teilkreislauf strömungstechnisch verbunden sind und durch eine Drehbewegung des Drehschiebers in zumindest teilweise Überschneidung mit den Drehschieber-Durchströmöffnungen gebracht werden können und wobei ein Thermostatventil bei Überschreiten einer Grenztemperatur des Kühlmittels einen parallel zum Drehschieber geführten Strömungspfad von einem der Teilkreisläufe zu der Kühlmittelförderpumpe öffnet.A fail-safe turntable for a coolant circuit, in particular for a multiple partial circuits having coolant circuit of an internal combustion engine, a coolant pump for circulation of the coolant within the coolant circuit, and a plurality of housing Durchströmöffnungen exhibiting rotary valve housing in which at least one rotary valve with at least one rotary valve flow-through rotatably mounted is, wherein the housing flow openings are fluidly connected to at least one partial circuit and can be brought by a rotational movement of the rotary valve in at least partially overlap with the rotary valve flow and wherein a thermostatic valve when exceeding a temperature limit of the coolant parallel to the rotary valve guided flow path of a the partial circuits to the coolant supply pump opens.
Indem parallel zum Drehschieber ein temperaturabhängig schaltbares Thermostatventil angeordnet ist, kann bei einem Ausfall der Drehschiebersteuerung ein Notlaufbetrieb dadurch gewährleistet werden, dass das Thermostatventil für das Kühlmittel einen alternativen Strömungspfad zur Kühlmittelförderpumpe öffnet. Durch die temperaturabhängige Schaltung des Thermostatventils wird dieser Strömungspfad nur geschaltet, wenn die Temperatur des Kühlmittels eine für den Betrieb der Brennkraftmaschine kritische Grenztemperatur erreicht hat. Dadurch wird die Brennkraftmaschine trotz einer Funktionsstörung des Drehstellers nicht am Erreichen der Betriebstemperatur gehindert, was zu einer Reduzierung des Kraftstoffverbrauchs und der Emissionen beiträgt. Darüber hinaus ist der Drehsteller sehr robust, da keine für den Notlaufbetrieb benötigten Bauteile direkt an dem Drehschieber angreifen, was eine leichte Beweglichkeit des Drehschiebers und einen geringen Bauteilverschleiß ermöglicht. Auch das Thermostatventil weist einen sehr geringen Verschleiß auf, da es nur sehr selten betätigt werden muss.By a temperature-dependent switchable thermostatic valve is arranged parallel to the rotary valve, in a failure of the rotary valve control an emergency operation can be ensured by the fact that the thermostatic valve for the coolant an alternative flow path to the coolant pump opens. Due to the temperature-dependent circuit of the thermostatic valve, this flow path is switched only when the temperature of the coolant has reached a critical for the operation of the internal combustion engine limit temperature. As a result, the engine is not prevented from reaching the operating temperature despite a malfunction of the turntable, which contributes to a reduction in fuel consumption and emissions. In addition, the turntable is very robust, since no components required for emergency operation attack directly on the rotary valve, which allows easy movement of the rotary valve and low component wear. Also, the thermostatic valve has a very low wear, since it has to be operated very rarely.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung leitet ein Kühlervorlauf Kühlmittel aus der Brennkraftmaschine zu einem Wärmetauscher und ein Kühlerrücklauf leitet das aus dem Wärmetauscher austretende Kühlmittel zu dem Drehschieber. Das von der Brennkraftmaschine erwärmte Kühlmittel wird durch den Kühlervorlauf an den Wärmetauscher geleitet, in welchem es sich abkühlen kann. Das aus dem Wärmetauscher austretende, abgekühlte Kühlmittel wird über den Kühlerrücklauf an die entsprechende Gehäuse-Durchströmöffnung des Drehschiebers geleitet. Von dem Kühlervorlauf kann auch ein Bypass abzweigen und erwärmtes Kühlmittel zu einer weiteren Gehäuse-Durchströmöffnung leiten. Durch eine Verdrehung des Drehschiebers können dessen Drehschieber-Durchströmöffnungen mit den entsprechenden Gehäuse-Durchströmöffnungen in zumindest teilweise Überschneidung gebracht werden. Somit ist es möglich den Anteil des in den Drehschieber einströmenden Kühlmittels aus dem Bypass und dem Kühlerrücklauf genau einzuregeln.In a preferred embodiment, a radiator feed directs coolant from the engine to a heat exchanger and a radiator return directs the coolant exiting the heat exchanger to the rotary valve. The heated by the internal combustion engine coolant is passed through the radiator flow to the heat exchanger, in which it can cool. The exiting from the heat exchanger, cooled coolant is passed through the radiator return to the corresponding housing flow opening of the rotary valve. From the radiator flow can also branch off a bypass and direct heated coolant to another housing flow-through. By a rotation of the rotary valve whose rotary valve flow-through can be brought into at least partially overlap with the corresponding housing flow openings. Thus, it is possible to regulate the proportion of the inflowing into the rotary valve coolant from the bypass and the radiator return exactly.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung wird zur Schaltung des Thermostatventils die Temperatur des Kühlmittels im Kühlervorlauf mit der Grenztemperatur des Kühlmittels verglichen. Indem die Temperatur des erwärmten Kühlmittels im Kühlervorlauf zum Vergleich mit der spezifischen Grenztemperatur herangezogen wird, kann schneller auf eine kritische Erhöhung der Kühlmitteltemperatur des in der Brennkraftmaschine befindlichen Kühlmittels reagiert werden. Weiterhin ist die Temperaturmessung dadurch unabhängig von der momentan erzielten Abkühlrate des nachgeschalteten Wärmetauschers, die im Betrieb erheblich variieren kann.In a preferred embodiment, the temperature of the coolant in the radiator feed is compared with the limit temperature of the coolant for switching the thermostatic valve. By using the temperature of the heated coolant in the radiator feed for comparison with the specific limit temperature can be responded to a critical increase in the coolant temperature of the internal coolant in the engine faster. Furthermore, the temperature measurement is independent of the currently achieved cooling rate of the downstream heat exchanger, which can vary considerably during operation.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung weist das Thermostatventil ein Absperrventil auf, das in einem Ventilsitz gelagert ist und von einer Feder dichtend gegen diesen gedrückt wird, sowie eine an dem Absperrventil angeordnete Schubstange, die von einem Dehnelement betätigbar ist, wobei sich das mit dem Kühlmittel des Kühlervorlaufs in Verbindung stehende Dehnelement bei Erreichen der Grenztemperatur des Kühlmittels ausdehnt und über die Schubstange das Absperrventil gegen den Druck der Feder aus dem Ventilsitz hebt. Indem das Thermostatventil ein Dehnelement, vorzugsweise in Form einer Wachskapsel, aufweist, welches in Kontakt mit dem Kühlmittel aus dem Kühlervorlauf steht, kann ohne zusätzliche Elektronik die Einhaltung der Grenztemperatur überwacht werden. Die Grenztemperatur wird vielmehr durch die Materialeigenschaften des verwendeten Wachses bestimmt, welches sich bei Erreichen der Grenztemperatur ausdehnt und somit eine Kraft auf die daran angeordnete Schubstange ausübt. Das am anderen Ende der Schubstange montierte Absperrventil, welches vorzugsweise als Tellerventil ausgebildet ist, wird von einer Feder dichtend gegen einen komplementären Ventilsitz gedrückt. Wenn das Dehnelement nun eine Kraft auf die Schubstange ausübt, kann sich das Absperrventil aus dem Ventilsitz abheben, was einen parallel zum Drehschieber geführten Strömungspfad eröffnet.In a preferred embodiment, the thermostatic valve to a check valve which is mounted in a valve seat and is pressed by a spring sealingly against this, and arranged on the shut-off valve push rod which is actuated by an expansion element, which deals with the coolant of the radiator expands in conjunction with the expansion element when the coolant reaches its limit temperature and lifts the shut-off valve out of the valve seat against the pressure of the spring via the push rod. By the thermostatic valve has an expansion element, preferably in the form of a wax capsule, which is in contact with the coolant from the radiator feed, compliance with the limit temperature can be monitored without additional electronics. Rather, the limit temperature is determined by the material properties of the wax used, which expands upon reaching the limit temperature and thus exerts a force on the push rod arranged thereon. The shut-off valve mounted at the other end of the push rod, which is preferably designed as a poppet valve, is pressed by a spring sealingly against a complementary valve seat. When the expansion element now exerts a force on the push rod, the shut-off valve can lift off the valve seat, which opens a guided parallel to the rotary valve flow path.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung weist das Thermostatventil beiderseitig des Absperrventils angeordnete und mit Kühlmittel beaufschlagbare Kammern auf, wobei eine erste Kammer mit Kühlmittel aus dem Kühlerrücklauf beaufschlagbar ist und eine zweite Kammer eine strömungstechnische Verbindung zum Saugmund der Kühlmittelförderpumpe aufweist. Die Kammern sind vorzugsweise als Käfige ausgebildet, so dass das Kühlmittel möglichst leicht ein- und ausströmen kann. Die erste Kammer ist dabei stets mit Kühlmittel aus dem Kühlerrücklauf befüllt, während die zweite Kammer meist Kühlmittel aus dem Drehschieber enthält.In a preferred embodiment, the thermostatic valve on both sides of the shut-off valve arranged and acted upon with coolant chambers, wherein a first chamber with coolant from the radiator return can be acted upon and a second chamber has a fluidic connection to the suction port of the coolant pump. The chambers are preferably designed as cages, so that the coolant as easily as possible can flow in and out. The first chamber is always filled with coolant from the radiator return, while the second chamber usually contains coolant from the rotary valve.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung ist zwischen dem Drehschieber und dem Drehschiebergehäuse ein Spalt ausgebildet, durch den das Kühlmittel aus der zweiten Kammer des Thermostatventils zum Saugmund der Kühlmittelförderpumpe strömen kann. Das Kühlmittel kann dabei unabhängig von der momentanen Stellung des Drehschiebers durch den gebildeten Ringspalt zum Saugmund der Kühlmittelförderpumpe gelangen. Zusätzliche radiale Durchgangsöffnungen im Drehschieber können den Übertritt des Kühlmittels aus der zweiten Kammer des Thermostatventils in den Drehschieber erleichtern.In a preferred embodiment, a gap is formed between the rotary valve and the rotary valve housing, through which the coolant from the second chamber of the thermostatic valve can flow to the suction port of the coolant pump. The coolant can reach regardless of the current position of the rotary valve through the annular gap formed to the suction port of the coolant pump. Additional radial passage openings in the rotary valve can facilitate the passage of the coolant from the second chamber of the thermostatic valve in the rotary valve.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung fördert die Kühlmittelförderpumpe das aus dem Drehschieber angesaugte Kühlmittel in einen Heizungskreislauf und/oder einen Brennkraftmaschinen-Zulauf.In a preferred embodiment, the coolant delivery pump conveys the coolant sucked from the rotary valve into a heating circuit and / or an internal combustion engine intake.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung sind in dem Heizungskreislauf ein Heizungswärmetauscher und/oder eine Heizungsförderpumpe und/oder ein Heizungsabsperrventil angeordnet. Indem das Kühlmittel zusätzlich zu dem Wärmetauscher auch noch den Heizungswärmetauscher durchströmt, vergrößert sich die verfügbare Kühlfläche. Die Heizungsförderpumpe ist vorzugsweise elektrisch betrieben und kann somit im Bedarfsfall zusätzlich zur Kühlmittelförderpumpe das Kühlmittel durch den Kühlkreislauf fördern. Das Heizungsabsperrventil kann bei nicht benötigter Heizleistung geschlossen werden, was im normalen Betrieb ein schnelleres Aufheizen des Kühlmittels in den übrigen Teilkreisläufen bewirkt.In a preferred embodiment, a heating heat exchanger and / or a heating feed pump and / or a Heizungsabsperrventil are arranged in the heating circuit. By the coolant also flows through the heat exchanger in addition to the heat exchanger, the available cooling surface increases. The heating conveyor pump is preferably operated electrically and can thus promote the coolant through the cooling circuit in addition to the coolant supply pump if necessary. The Heizungsabsperrventil can be closed when not required heating power, which causes a faster heating of the refrigerant in the other sub-circuits in normal operation.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung ist in dem Brennkraftmaschinen-Zulauf ein weiteres Absperrventil, insbesondere ein weiterer Drehschieber, angeordnet. Durch die Anordnung eines weiteren Absperrventils im Brennkraftmaschinen-Zulauf kann der Kühlmittelstrom zur Brennkraftmaschine im Bedarfsfall unterbrochen und gezielt in den Heizkreislauf umgeleitet werden. Indem das weitere Absperrventil als Drehschieber ausgebildet ist, kann durch eine direkte oder indirekte Verbindung mit dem anderen Drehschieber eine Drehbewegung in Abhängigkeit voneinander ausgeführt werden.In a preferred embodiment, a further shut-off valve, in particular a further rotary valve, is arranged in the internal combustion engine intake. By the arrangement of a further shut-off valve in the engine inlet If necessary, the coolant flow to the internal combustion engine can be interrupted and redirected in a targeted manner into the heating circuit. By the further shut-off valve is designed as a rotary valve, a rotational movement in dependence on each other can be carried out by a direct or indirect connection with the other rotary valve.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung wird bei Überschreiten der Grenztemperatur des Kühlmittels das Heizungsabsperrventil geöffnet, so dass das Kühlmittel aus der Kühlmittelförderpumpe über den Heizungswärmetauscher in die Brennkraftmaschine gefördert werden kann. Dies ist insbesondere dann nötig, wenn das als Drehschieber ausgebildete weitere Absperrventil im Brennkraftmaschinen-Zulauf aufgrund einer Fehlfunktion kein Kühlmittel mehr durchleiten kann. In diesem Fall ist es nötig einen Kühlmittelstrom aus dem Drehsteller über den Heizkreislauf zurück in die Brennkraftmaschine zu leiten.In a preferred embodiment, when the limit temperature of the coolant is exceeded, the Heizungsabsperrventil is opened, so that the coolant from the coolant supply pump can be promoted via the heater core in the engine. This is particularly necessary if the designed as a rotary valve further shut-off valve in the engine inlet due to a malfunction can no longer pass coolant. In this case, it is necessary to direct a coolant flow from the rotary actuator via the heating circuit back into the internal combustion engine.
