Device on an exhaust brake

Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to an exhaust brake for an internal combustion engine, the throttle valve of which is eccentrically mounted and connected by way of a lever system to the control cylinder serving to operate it in the closing direction, on the piston of which cylinder a spring acts in the opening direction of the throttle valve, an adjustable spring acting on the lever system in the closing direction of the throttle valve and a hand pull in the opening direction of the throttle valve in such a way that the throttle valve in the throttle position moves into an open position freeing a throttle gap both automatically at a predetermined limit pressure and arbitrarily in response to the hand pull for pressure relief or for the cold starting and/or warming-up of the internal combustion engine. <IMAGE>
