Benefits of technology

This design enhances the simplicity and efficiency of valve and fluid system production, improves flow through the system, and allows for better use of available space, leading to a more compact and effective fluid system for vehicles.

Problems solved by technology

This is not necessarily the case, however.
The installation space for the valve housing openings in the valve housing is severely limited circumferentially, therefore, concentrically around the axis of rotation of the valve body.

Embodiment Construction

[0025]An exemplary embodiment of a vehicle with a fluid system of the invention is shown purely as an example in FIGS. 1 to 4.

[0026]The vehicle is designed here as a motor vehicle, namely, a pure electric vehicle, and is not shown in more detail.

[0027]In the present exemplary embodiment, fluid system 2 for the vehicle is formed as a coolant system for cooling the traction battery and the drive motor together with the power electronics corresponding thereto, and for cooling a refrigerant circuit for air conditioning an interior of the vehicle. The traction battery, the drive motor with the corresponding power electronics, and the refrigerant circuit of the vehicle are also not shown in detail here and are designed, for example, in a manner known per se to the skilled artisan.

[0028]Fluid system 2, formed as a coolant system, comprises a fluid tank 4, formed as a coolant tank, for storing a fluid (not shown) of the vehicle, said fluid formed as a coolant, a total of three fluid circuit...

Abstract

A valve for a fluid system of a vehicle having a valve housing with valve housing openings, a valve body arranged so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation, a valve seal, a valve drive, and a plurality of connecting pieces corresponding to the valve housing openings. The connecting pieces have a circular flow passage area in cross section at a free end of the respective connecting piece, and the valve housing openings, corresponding to the connecting pieces, each have a substantially rectangular cross section. The respective valve housing opening is larger than the flow passage area at the free end of the corresponding connecting piece, and the flow passage areas of the connecting pieces widen in a diffuser-like manner from the free end of the respective connecting piece to the respective corresponding valve housing opening and merge in a stepless manner into the respective valve housing opening.

Description

[0001]This nonprovisional application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) to German Patent Application No. 10 2021 110 941.8, which was filed in Germany on Apr. 28, 2021, and which is herein incorporated by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONField of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a valve for a fluid system, to a fluid tank for a fluid system, and to a fluid system of a vehicle.Description of the Background Art[0003]Valves and fluid tanks of this kind for fluid systems and fluid systems for vehicles are already known from the state of the art in numerous design variants. The known valves for fluid systems of vehicles comprise a valve housing with a plurality of valve housing openings, a valve body arranged in the valve housing so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation and having at least one flow-conducting connecting channel for the flow-conducting connection of at least two valve housing openings of the plurality of valve housing openings, a valve...
