Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a fail-safe rotary actuator (1) for a coolant circuit, in particular for a coolant circuit of an internal combustion engine (2) having a plurality of sub-circuits (3) and (4), includes a coolant delivery pump (5) for circulating the coolant within the coolant circuit, and having a rotary-slide housing (8) which has a plurality of housing pass-through openings (6) and (7) and in which at least one rotary slide (9) having at least one rotary slide pass-through opening (11) and (12) is rotatably supported, wherein the housing pass-through openings (6) and/or (7) are fluidly connected to at least one sub-circuit (3) and/or (4), and can be brought into at least partial coincidence with the rotary slide pass-through openings (11) and/or (12) by a rotary motion of the rotary slide (9), wherein a thermostat valve (13) opens a flow path running parallel to the rotary slide (9) from one of the sub-circuits (3) or (4) to the coolant delivery pump (5), when a temperature limit of the coolant is exceeded.
