20140190881 | Liquid filter having a drainage valve - A liquid filter having a housing and a hollow insert. The housing has a dirty liquid feed, a clean liquid outlet and a drainage channel, and is closed by a detachable cover. In the channel, a valve is arranged, having a valve body axially displaceable between a closed and an open position. The cover on the housing presses the valve body into the closed position. When the cover is removed from the housing, the valve body is carried to its open position and then is detachable from the cover or insert and is retainable in its open position by a spring holding element. The holding element automatically expands into the opening position by spring force and engages a spring element restraint holding the valve body in its open position. A force contracts the spring element, displacing the valve body in the closing direction, releasing engagement with the spring restraint. | 07-10-2014 |
20140183116 | Liquid Filter with an Eccentric Liquid Discharge Channel - A liquid filter with a replaceable filter insert and a housing having a raw liquid inlet, a central clean liquid outlet, and an eccentric liquid discharge channel. A standpipe extends above the liquid outlet and receives the insert. The insert has an eccentric closing pin. A first positioning arrangement is arranged on the clean liquid outlet and a lower end region of the standpipe so that, when the standpipe is plugged into the clean liquid outlet, the standpipe is guided into a particular position relative to the filter housing. A second positioning arrangement is arranged on the standpipe and the insert so that, when the insert is plugged onto the standpipe, it is guided into a particular position relative to the standpipe. The positioning arrangements are matched to one another so that the closing pin on the insert enters into engagement with the discharge channel in the filter housing. | 07-03-2014 |
20140069398 | CENTRIFUGAL PRECIPITATOR FOR PRECIPITATING OIL MIST FROM THE CRANKCASE VENTILATION GAS FROM AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - A centrifugal precipitator having a housing and a rotatable driven rotor for precipitating oil mist from crankcase ventilation gas of an internal combustion engine. The housing has an inlet for gas to be deoiled, a deoiled gas outlet and an oil outlet. The housing includes a metallic main element surrounding the rotor and carrying the rotor bearing. A housing bottom is built onto the main element from below. The housing attaches with a flange to a counterflange or module of the engine. The housing flange is formed on the main element and the housing. The oil outlet runs through a first flange part of the housing bottom and this flange part has a circumferential rim. A second flange part of the main element has a collar engaging over part of its periphery behind the rim and can be clamped with the rim in between against the counterflange. | 03-13-2014 |
20120267293 | LIQUID FILTER - A liquid filter including a filter housing, a ring filter insert and a cover.

A blocking element for the outlet is arranged on one front panel, and positioning elements are provided on the filter insert and on the housing. The positioning elements include an inclined plane and an engaging radially protruding nose. The inclined plane is arranged on one and the nose is arranged on the other of the filter housing part and the ring filter insert. When the ring filter insert is rotated relative to the filter housing, the inclined plane and the nose are moved in relation to each other such that they slide along each other and engage the blocking element with the outlet. | 10-25-2012 |
20120168366 | FUEL FILTER OF AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - A fuel filter of an internal combustion engine including a filter housing having a lowermost housing base and a topmost removable housing lid. The filter housing has one raw fuel inlet and one pure fuel outlet. A replaceable annular filter insert mounts there in the filter housing, fuel flowing through it from outside towards inside. The filter subdivides an interior space of the filter housing into a raw zone and a pure zone. A supporting body is arranged in the interior of the annular filter insert, a first flow channel and a second flow channel extending therethrough. The first flow channel connects at one end to the pure zone and at the other end to the pure fuel outlet. The second flow channel connects at one end to the raw zone via a vent throttle or a vent valve and at the other end to a reservoir return in the filter housing. The raw fuel inlet is in the housing base and a flow channel leads from the raw fuel inlet to a portion of the raw zone of the interior space of the filter housing which is, during operation, topmost. | 07-05-2012 |
20110281712 | CENTRIFUGAL SEPARATOR - A centrifugal separator for separating oil mist out of the crankcase vent gas of an internal combustion engine or for separating solid contaminants out of the lubricant oil of an internal combustion engine, wherein the centrifugal separator has a rotationally drivable rotor, a housing which accommodates the rotor and a rotary drive for the rotor, wherein the rotary drive is an electric motor arranged within the housing. The centrifugal separator includes an arrangement for cooling the electric motor. | 11-17-2011 |
20110198519 | PNEUMATIC PRESSURE REGULATING VALVE - A pneumatic pressure regulating valve, the opening of which can be automatically changed in a pressure-related manner, including a control diaphragm that is subjected to a reference pressure, to the gas pressure as well as to a governor spring, wherein a change in the differential pressure causes an adjustment of the control diaphragm and the latter itself or a closing element actuated by it changes the opening through an outflow cross-section, and wherein a structure that is arranged adjacent to the outflow cross-section on the diaphragm side forms a stop for the control diaphragm or for the closing element in the closed position of said control diaphragm. At least one preliminary stop is arranged in the pressure regulating valve such that, when the control diaphragm is moving in its closing direction, the control diaphragm or the closing element first comes into contact with the preliminary stop and that, when the control diaphragm is moving further in its closing direction, the control diaphragm or the closing element will then, while being subjected to elastic and flexible deformation or being further subjected to elastic and flexible deformation respectively, further reduces the opening and, in a final position, also comes into contact with the stop. | 08-18-2011 |

20090314697 | Liquid Filter With A Non-Return Valve In The Filtered Side Flow Channel - Disclosed is a liquid filter for an internal combustion engine. The filter has a housing, a removable cover for closing the housing, and a replaceable filter insert that has a filter surface through which liquid can flow. The filter surface defines a boundary between a flow channel on the filtered side and a flow channel on the unfiltered side of the filter. A non-return valve allows the liquid to flow through the filter at pressure conditions that prevail when the engine is running. When the engine is shut off, the non-return valve prevents flow of liquid through the filter, thereby holding within the filter housing the liquid that was in the filter when the engine was shut off. The non-return valve is placed in the flow channel on the filtered side. | 12-24-2009 |
20090199826 | DEVICE FOR ELIMINATING OIL PARTICLES FROM THE CRANKCASE VENTILATION GAS IN AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - A device for eliminating oil particles from the crankcase ventilation gas of an internal combustion engine. The device is located in the flow duct of the gas that runs from the crankcase to an induction tract of the engine. The device includes an oil separator in the form of an outlet for the gas with a deflection of the flow, causing the oil particles to be deposited on a baffle surface and thus to be eliminated from the crankcase ventilation gas flow. The device has an infeed cross-section, which lies upstream of the baffle surface when viewed from the flow direction of the crankcase ventilation gas, and which is sub-divided into several infeed sub-sections. The baffle surface is a solid surface that is devoid of perforations. The baffle surface is configured on a valve body, which lies downstream of the infeed sub-sections when viewed in the flow direction of the gas, and which is pre-tensioned by a force. The valve body can be displaced in the opening direction in opposition to the pre-tension, as a result of the differential pressure in the gas between the crankcase and the induction tract. | 08-13-2009 |
