ABSTRACT:
An EGR apparatus includes an EGR conduit, an EGR valve, a first passage connecting a portion of an intake conduit downstream of a throttle valve and the EGR valve, and a second passage connecting a portion of the intake conduit upstream of the throttle valve and a medium portion of the first passage. A two-way solenoid valve is installed in the first passage between the intake conduit and a connecting portion where the first passage and the second passage join. Further, a fixed throttle is disposed in the second passage. By removing a VCV of a conventional EGR apparatus from the EGR apparatus and by replacing a three-way VSV of the conventional apparatus with a combination of the two-way solenoid valve and the fixed throttle, a problem of non-cutting of EGR, which can occur in the conventional apparatus, does not occur in the EGR apparatus of the invention.
