| 20120060683 | VACUUM PUMP WITH VENTILATING MEANS - A vacuum pump for supplying a machine assembly with a negative pressure includes a housing and a housing cover surrounding a delivery chamber. The delivery chamber includes a low-pressure region having a working inlet connected to the assembly, and a high-pressure region having a working outlet. A delivery member moveable within the delivery chamber, which, when moved, suctions air into the delivery chamber through the working inlet and expel it at an increased pressure through the working outlet. An outlet valve is arranged at or downstream or the working outlet and at least makes it difficult for air to flow back into the delivery chamber. The delivery chamber is connected to the external environment of the vacuum pump via a ventilating connection in order to establish at least partial pressure equalization with the external environment when the delivery member is stopped and a negative pressure prevails in the delivery chamber. | 03-15-2012 |
| 20120037104 | SINTERED COMPOSITE AND METHOD FOR ITS MANUFACTURE - A method for powder-metallurgically manufacturing a rotational body, including compacting a first starting body is compacted from a metal powder; forming a second starting body from metal, separately from the first starting body; placing the starting bodies against each other in axial contact via end faces in relation to a longitudinal axis of the rotational body; and permanently and firmly sintered the first starting body and the second starting body to each other by collective sintering. The first starting body is compacted from an aluminium-based powder, the second starting body is formed from an aluminium material, and the starting bodies are sintered to each other at their respective end faces. | 02-16-2012 |
| 20120020825 | DISPLACEMENT PUMP WITH SUCTION GROOVE - A displacement pump, including a pump chamber and a regulating chamber which are separated from each other by a piston, wherein the pump has a device with which fluid flowing from the pump chamber toward the regulating chamber can be drained. | 01-26-2012 |
| 20110220046 | CAM SHAFT PHASE SETTER COMPRISING A CONTROL VALVE FOR HYDRAULICALLY ADJUSTING THE PHASE POSITION OF A CAM SHAFT - A cam shaft phase setter including a control valve for controlling the feeding and draining of a hydraulic fluid into and out of a pressure chamber which serves to adjust the rotational angular position of a cam shaft relative to a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine. The control valve includes a valve housing with an operating port to the pressure chamber and a reservoir port to a reservoir for the fluid. A valve piston is axially adjustable back and forth in the valve housing between a first position and a second position and includes an axial hollow space, a piston inlet for introducing the fluid into the hollow space, and a piston outlet which leads out of the hollow space and is connected to the operating port in the first position of the valve piston and separated from the operating port in the second position of the valve piston. An actuating unit is coupled to the valve piston for axially adjusting the valve piston. A coupling member protrudes through an axially facing closure wall which closes off the valve housing and couples the actuating unit to the valve piston. The valve piston includes a radial widening which is surrounded by a complementarily widened housing portion of the valve housing and to which the fluid can be applied in an axial direction pointing away from the axially facing closure wall in order to generate an axial pressure force. The widening is dimensioned such that the fluid acts on the valve piston with a pressure force of at least substantially equal size in both axial directions, despite the coupling member. | 09-15-2011 |
| 20090123314 | OIL PUMP FOR AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - An oil pump for an internal combustion engine for drawing up the lubricating oil situated in an oil collector device has an oil pump housing wherein at least two pairs of gears are disposed. The pairs of gears, in order to form the pumping stages, are connected on the suction side to a suction passage formed in the oil pump housing and on the delivery side to a delivery passage. The oil pump housing is further formed with an oil supply passage that is connected to the suction passage of a first pumping stage and via which lubricating oil can be delivered to the suction side of the first pumping stage. | 05-14-2009 |
