Abstract
A mounting arrangement for mounting at least one rotary valve to a drive shaft is provided, where the drive shaft includes at least one mounting hole at a predetermined position therein. The mounting arrangement may include at least one rotary valve having a curved portion and two side portions. The arrangement may also include a central passage passing through the two side portions that is shaped to allow the drive shaft to extend therethrough. The rotary valve may also include a mounting opening, opening towards the central passage at a predetermined position. The arrangement may include a mounting element extending through the mounting opening of the rotary valve into the mounting hole in the drive shaft, to mount the rotary valve to the drive shaft at a predetermined position.
