AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies for integrating an exhaust gas recirculation system within the cylinder head of the internal combustion engine are bulky and complex, occupying significant space in the engine compartment, complicating the engine architecture.
A liquid-cooled internal combustion engine with a distribution system covered by a closing plate that integrates an exhaust gas recirculation device, including a cooled EGR valve and bypass valve, with conduits for coolant and lubricating oil, simplifying the cylinder head by relocating EGR components to the closing plate.
The solution reduces the overall volume of the engine, simplifies assembly, and enhances packaging efficiency by integrating EGR components into the closing plate, reducing the need for additional interfaces and screws.
