Abstract:
The invention concerns an arrangement for forming discrete soldering joints in which connection sections (26) of contact elements (14) are shaped to form loops (27) or eyes (28) and each contain a solder deposit (31). The connection sections (26) are pressed in a force-locking manner by spring elements (33) onto associated insular connection surfaces (32). Owing to the supply of heat, which melts solder (29) in the solder deposit (31), the solder passes directly to the connection surfaces (32) whilst continuing to wet the connection sections (26) and forming discrete soldering joints (34). The arrangement is preferably intended for use with electric circuits in motor vehicles.
Abstract:
The electrical device proposed has a circuit board (10) carrying an electronic circuit containing electronic components (12). For electrical-contacting purposes, the circuit has a multiple contact strip (14). In order to protect the circuit reliably against moisture, it is fitted, in addition to the casing cover (27) and casing floor (32), with moistureproof plastic covers (16, 23) which form a hood over the top (11) and underside (22) of the circuit board. These plastic covers form a moisturetight joint with the circuit board. The casing cover (27) and floor (32) do not have to fulfil any sealing function, being designed solely to protect the circuit board from mechanical damage and, if necessary, to provide electrical screening.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a pump, especially a high pressure pump for use in a fuel injector of an internal combustion engine, provided with a pump casing (10) with, on the one hand, at least one working space located between an inlet area (15) and a feeding area (20) operatively linked inside the pump casing (24), an actuating element (16) being mounted in said working space and, on the other hand, at least one pump shaft (14) inside the pump casing (10), which enables the actuating element (16) to be operated. In order to reduce the length of the construction and extend the service life of the pump, it is provided that the pump casing (10) be secured to a wall (45) of the motor crankcase (45'), with the possibility for the pump shaft (14, 14') of being radially laid onto a shaft (46) mounted inside the motor crankcase (45').
Abstract:
The invention relates to a fuel-injection valve which has an axially moving valve needle (12), said valve needle comprising at least at least one closing element support (17) and one spherical valve-closing element (18). The closing element support (17) accommodates the valve-closing element (18) in a lower recess (38), an end area (37) of said closing element support (17) encompassing the valve-closing element (18) in the downstream direction beyond an equator (52) of said valve-closing element (18). The fixed connection between the valve-closing element (18) and the closing element support (17) is achieved by means of bordering. The fuel-injection valve is particularly suitable for use in fuel-injection systems of mixture-compression internal combustion engines with externally supplied ignition.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a detector, specially one determining the oxygen content in exhaust gases of internal combustion motors, wherein a wafer-shaped sensor element (26) is inserted in a ceramic molded part (20), arranged in a metal casing (12) by means of a gastight seal (31). The seal (31) consists of a tightly packed powder (32) and a glass seal (33) placed thereon. Said seal (31) enables gastight and gasoline-resistant fixing of the sensor element (26) in the ceramic molded part (20).
Abstract:
The invention relates to an optical wavelength division multiplex transmitter which produces a wave crest with the help of a plurality of laser fibres. A single pump source is then used.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a circuit for a latching relay engaging two toothed wheels in a starting device of an internal combustion engine, characterized by a control and regulating device (2) reducing the relay current after a first time interval (4) to a given current value during a second time interval (41) before both toothed wheels are engaged.
Abstract:
With regard to a an adjusting device for a scheduling cam, and more particularly to a clutch actuator, fitted with an electric motor (17), an axially mobile pushrod acting upon the actuator (20, 21), a cranking device located between the output (22) of the electric motor (17) and the pushrod (19), and a travel sensor (34) to determine the position of the clutching actuator, the casing (10) of the actuator is designed as a two-shell assembly with a lower and an upper part pretightened one against the other and, inserted between both, a sealing joint (14), so that we have a device of a simple and economic design with an extremely reduced construction volume. The lower part of the casing (11) contains the electric motor (17) with the cranking device (18) as well as the pushrod (19) with the clutch actuator (20, 21), oriented for example in a direction substantially parallel to the electric motor axis (17), while the upper part of the casing accommodates an electronic control device for both the travel sensor and the electric motor (17).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a fuel injection device for internal combustion engines, comprising a high pressure pump (1) fitted with a common high pressure collector (Common Rail) to be filled with fuel. Said collector is connected through injection pipes (9) to injection valves (11) emerging into the combustion chamber of the engine. The opening and closing motion of said valves is controlled by an electrically driven pilot valve (13) designed as a 3/2-way valve which connects a high pressure channel (29) opening out into an injection opening of the injection valve (11) to an injection pipe (9) or a discharge pipe )33). On the rod (25) of the pilot valve (13) there is a hydraulic working chamber (51), which is filled with HP fuel and can be handled so as to adjust the position of the pilot valve (13) rod (25) in the discharge channel (57).
Abstract:
A platelike sensor element (10), in particular for determining the oxygen content of exhaust fumes of internal combustion engines, has at least one measurement cell (12) with an oxygen ion conducting solid electrolyte and a heating element (14). The measurement cell (12) and the heating element (14) are joined together by an electrically insulating layer (50) made of at least one crystalline, non-metallic material and of at least one vitreous material. A glazing filled with the crystalline, non-metallic material is formed when the sensor element (10) is sintered.
