Abstract: L'invention concerne un ensemble actionneur (90) qui utilise une pression opérationnelle fluctuante produite par une pompe à huile (18) d'injecteur de façon à actionner une soupape de recirculation de gaz d'échappement (EGR) (87). La pression opérationnelle est utilisée pour faire fonctionner l'ensemble actionneur (90), sans qu'il soit défavorablement affecté par la nature fluctuante de la pression opérationnelle. L'ensemble actionneur (90) comprend un logement d'actionneur (102) qui définit une chambre (104) et une entrée d'huile (103) d'actionneur. Cette entrée (103) est en communication fluidique avec la sortie (24) de pompe. L'ensemble actionneur (90) comprend également une pièce coulissante (106) située dans la chambre (104). Cette pièce (106) est positionnable entre une première position et une seconde position de ladite pièce coulissante. La pièce coulissante (106) isole l'entrée d'huile (103) d'actionneur de la chambre (104) lorsque ladite pièce coulissante (106) se trouve dans la première position. L'entrée d'huile (103) d'actionneur est en communication fluidique avec la chambre (104) lorsque la pièce coulissante (106) se trouve dans la seconde position. L'ensemble actionneur (90) comprend, en outre, un ensemble de déplacement destiné à déplacer la pièce coulissante d'une première position vers une seconde position. La pression opérationnelle fluctuante déplace le piston (116) de l'actionneur d'une première position vers une seconde position lorsque la pièce coulissante (106) est déplacée vers la seconde position. L'invention concerne également un procédé d'actionnement d'une soupape dans un ensemble moteur (10).

an electromagnetic agitating force to a molten metal of an
aluminum alloy composition, the molten metal of the aluminum
alloy composition, which is used, has an Fe content in a range

Abstract: A throttle device for an internal-combustion engine, in
which, on one surface of a throttle body side wall is formed
a mounting space for mounting a reduction gear mechanism which
transmits the power of a motor to a throttle valve shaft; and
a throttle sensor for detecting the throttle valve opening is
built inside of the gear cover covering the mounting space, and
is covered with a sensor cover. A shaft hole of a rotor of the
throttle sensor is exposed out through the sensor cover. When
the gear cover is attached to the side wall of the throttle body,
one end of the throttle valve shaft fits in the rotor shaft hole
by elastically deforming a fitting spring inserted in the shaft
hole, thereby enabling downsizing, weight reduction, and
simplification of assembly and wiring harness of the
electronically controlled throttle device, and realization of
stabilized operation and improved accuracy of the throttle
sensor.
