ROTATING MULTIPORT VALVE

A multiport valve module system, comprising a valve housing (1), having a central axis X, which encloses a working chamber (1.1) having an inner housing surface (1.6) and has a plurality of ports (1.3a-1.3c) for supplying and/or discharging a medium into or out of the working chamber (1.1). The valve housing (1) includes a cover (1.2) that is assembled to the valve housing (1) for sealing the working chamber (1.1). The system having valve body (2) which is drivable about the axis X and in the axial direction in the working chamber (1.1) with an outer valve surface (2.2) and a at least on channel (2a, 2b) with plurality of openings on the valve surface (2.2). The system having a drive shaft (3.1) for connecting a drive with the valve body (2) with the drive shaft (3.1) guided through the cover (1.2). The rotatable multiport valve module system is said to be fast and easy to switch at the same time. For that the torque on the drive shaft (3.1) is permanently transferred to the valve body (2) such that the valve body (2) rotates synchronously with the drive shaft (3.1) when the drive shaft (3.1) is driven by a drive and cams (1.4a, 2.1a) are provided at the valve body (2) and/or at the valve housing (1), which cause a translational motion of the valve body (2) in axial direction.
