The invention relates to an exhaust gas heat exchanger comprising a bundle of pipes consisting of exhaust gas pipes and a bypass channel in a common housing. The pipe bundle is arranged in a first chamber that is crossflown by a liquid coolant and the bypass channel is arranged in a second, separate chamber. The pipe bundle and the by pass channel lead into a common exhaust gas inlet area and a common exhaust gas outlet area in which an exhaust gas valve actuated by a servo-drive is arranged, said valve guiding the exhaust gas flow through the pipe bundle or the bypass channel. According to the invention, the exhaust gas valve has a movable closing organ that is resistant to bending, said organ being preferably embodied as a pivoting semi-flap that is fixed with a longitudinal side to a drive shaft that is arranged crosswise relative to the exhaust gas flow.

An exhaust gas heat exchanger comprising: a housing, a tube bundle composed of exhaust-gas tubes positioned in said housing, a cooling circuit for circulating a coolant fluid around the exhaust gas tubes, a bypass passage located in said housing, wherein the tube bundle and the bypass passage open into a common exhaust gas inlet region and also in a common exhaust gas outlet region, a selectively actuatable exhaust gas valve comprising a moveable closure member arranged in either the inlet region or the outlet region for guiding the flow of exhaust gas selectively through the tube bundle or the bypass passage, wherein the closure member is designed as a pivot flap that includes a second half-flap, such that the two half-flaps for a pivot flap with an approximately centrally arranged pivot axle along the drive shaft and with two opposite sealing edges, and further comprising a partition with a concave sealing surface facing the pivot flap arranged between the pivot axle and the partition wall, and wherein one sealing edge slides along the sealing surface over a pivoting range of the pivot flap. 3. An exhaust gas heat exchanger as defined in claim 2, wherein the pivot flap is arranged in a housing, the cross section of flow of which widens downstream of the pivot axle to form flow-diverting regions. 4. An exhaust gas heat exchanger comprising: a housing, a tube bundle composed of exhaust-gas tubes positioned in said housing, a cooling circuit for circulating a coolant fluid around the exhaust gas tubes, a bypass passage located in said housing, wherein the tube bundle and the bypass passage open into a common exhaust gas inlet region and also in a common exhaust gas outlet region, a selectively actuatable exhaust gas valve comprising a moveable closure member arranged in either the inlet region or the outlet region for guiding the flow of exhaust gas selectively through the tube bundle or the bypass passage, wherein the closure member comprises a flexurally rigid, pivotable half-flap having one longitudinal side secured to a drive shaft that is arranged transversely with respect to the exhaust gas flow, and a separate partition wall extending in the direction of exhaust gas flow between the drive shaft and the tube cross sections of the tube bundle, and separating the bypass passage from the flow passages of the exhaust gas tubes. 5. An exhaust gas recirculation system comprising an exhaust gas heat exchanger according to claim 4. 6. A motor vehicle comprising a heat exchanger according to claim 4. 7. An exhaust gas heat exchanger as defined in claim 4, wherein the half-flap is arranged in a valve housing with an approximately rectangular cross section of flow and alternately closes off one half of the cross section or the other half of the cross section. 8. An exhaust gas heat exchanger as defined in claim 7, wherein the half-flap closes in the exhaust gas direction of flow and in the closed position is arranged obliquely with respect to the exhaust gas stream. 9. An exhaust gas heat exchanger comprising: a housing, a tube bundle composed of exhaust-gas tubes positioned in said housing, a cooling circuit for circulating a coolant fluid around the exhaust gas tubes, a bypass passage located in said housing, wherein the tube bundle and the bypass passage open into a common exhaust gas inlet region and also in a common exhaust gas outlet region, a selectively actuatable exhaust gas valve comprising a moveable closure member arranged in either the inlet region or the outlet region for guiding the flow of exhaust gas selectively through the tube bundle or the bypass passage, and an actuating drive comprising a vacuum cell and an actuating member operatively connected to the vacuum cell for driving the closure member. 10. An exhaust gas heat exchanger according to claim 9, wherein the closure member is arranged immediately upstream of the inlet region or downstream of the outlet region of the exhaust gas cooler and has two parallel longitudinal edges which are arranged slideably in housing-side guide grooves. 11. An exhaust gas heat exchanger according to claim 9, wherein an actuating rod which is connected to the actuating drive is secured to the closure member. 12. A motor vehicle according to claim 11, wherein the vehicle comprises a diesel engine supplying exhaust gas to said heat exchanger.
