Abstract:
The present invention concerns a method and a device for machine diagnosis and, in particular, for transmission diagnosis in a machine or motor vehicle. The measurement system, according to the invention, comprises a coil (2) wound on a coil core (11), on the surface of which ferritic wear particles (3) to be detected accumulate. Opposite the coil (2) a rotating toothed wheel (6) is arranged which influences the inductance of the coil (2). The output signal of the coil (2) is pulsed with a constant amplitude, the pulse frequency depends on the rotation speed of the toothed wheel (6). Deviations of the amplitude are attributable to the accumulation of ferritic wear particles (3) on the coil (2) and therefore provide a measurement of the condition of the machine or transmission.

The two variable diaphragm stages are provided as the inlet and outlet diaphragms of a pressure regulating chamber (7) and each has a sealing element, said sealing element (5) of the inlet diaphragm (3) is designed as ball, or calotte, ortruncated cone, or cylinder and/or the sealing element of the outlet diaphragm is designed as ball, or calotte, or truncated cone, or cylinder.
Abstract:
A pressure control valve unit (10) for a fluid with at least one inlet area (P) and first and second outlet areas (A, T) which can be connected for fluid flow with one another by two mutually coupled seat valves (23, 24). An incoming fluid flow, from the inlet area (P) to the first and second outlet areas (A, T), can be adjusted by way of the first seat valve (23), and a fluid outflow, between the first and second outlet areas (A,T), can be adjusted by way of the second seat valve (24). In this case, a flow-guiding device (26) is arranged, upstream from the first seat valve (23) in the inlet area (P), and imposes a specific flow characteristic upon the inflowing fluid in the area of the first seat valve (23).
Abstract:
A method for machine diagnosis and, in particular, for transmission diagnosis of a machine or motor vehicle. The measurement system comprises a capturing magnet (2), on the surface of which the ferritic wear particles (3) to be detected accumulate. A binary measurement signal is produced by a reed contact (1) arranged opposite the capturing magnet (2). This measurement gives an indication of the condition of the machine or transmission.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a vibration damper for damping fluid vibrations in a hydraulic system, especially in a hydraulic control circuit for a motor vehicle gear box with an elastically deformable damper element (31), According to the invention, the vibration damper is provided with a separate sealing element (32) which guarantees the functioning of the hydraulic system in the event of a breakdown e.g. the damper element (31) bursting.
Abstract:
A proportional pressure control valve serves as a direct control valve with a pressure reducing function and a pressure holding function. The valve, includes a valve housing (2) with inlet and outlet . ports (4, 5, 6), a control element (7) which has a feedback facility, an armature rod (15) and a proportional magnet (3). The proportional magnet is comprised of a magnet core (17), a magnet armature (16) and a magnet coil (18), wherein this proportional magnet (3) in its operational range possesses a nearly constant magnetic force. In accordance with the invention, in a holding position of the magnet armature (16), the smallest axial space (21) between the magnet armature (16) and the magnet core (17) is so dimensioned, first, that the magnetic force between these two components (16, 17) when in the holding position is greater than the magnetic force in the operational zone of the proportional magnets (3), and second, that the magnet armature (16) can be fixed in the holding position by this magnetic force.
Abstract:
A housing (1) with at least one electrical connection (7) through a housing wall (4) can be manufactured especially economically and can facilitate an especially economical lacing of electronic components (2, 13) present on the interior and on the exterior of the housing (1). The electrical connection (7) is enclosed by a housing material and additionally sealed by a sealing material (6). The sealing material (6) also advantageously serves to seal a top (3) and a bottom (5) to the housing wall (4). Through the combination of the casing of the electrical connection (7) of the housing (1) and the sealing material (6), this arrangement is, moreover, especially impervious to oil or other aggressive media.
Abstract:
A proportional pressure adjustment valve is described which comprises one valve part with inlet and outlet openings (4) and at least one closing mechanism (7) for control of a valve (12), the same as a magnet part having one magnet core, one magnet coil and one displaceably disposed magnet armature. An actuating element (11) cooperates with the armature, actuating the spherical closing mechanism (7). The hydraulically active cross section of the valve (12) is essentially determined by the length of the valve (L), the diameter of the valve (D) and th diameter (d) of the part (13) of the actuating element (11) which penetrates into the valve. According to invention, the ratio of the length of the valve (L) to the diameter of the valve (d) is less than 2.0.
Abstract:
A pressure control valve device with at least one inlet area and first and second outlet areas which can be connected by two poppet valves. A flow guide device (21), with inflow and outflow areas (22, 23) for guiding the fluid flowing from the inlet area in a defined manner in the direction of the second poppet valve, is located upstream of the second poppet valve, between the first and second outlet areas. The fluid in the flow guide device (21) passes in the area between the inflow and outflow areas (22, 23) through a plurality of channel areas distributed around the periphery of the flow guide device (21) and separated from one another, which are shaped at least approximately helically and impart an at least approximately vortex-like flow pattern to the fluid flowing in the direction of the second poppet valve downstream of the outflow area (23).
