  • Patent number: 9909599
    Abstract: A pressure accumulator with a connecting device, in which the pressure accumulator and the connecting device are connected together fluid-conductively. The pressure accumulator at a first axial connecting segment has a transverse bore which intersects an axial bore of the pressure accumulator, in which the transverse bore is configured for fluid-conductive connection with the connecting device.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9383183
    Abstract: A pressure indicator for a high-pressure accumulator system, and which includes a pressure indicating element having a channel. The pressure indicating element moves between a starting position and a pressure-indicating position in response to pressure on a side facing a pressure-monitoring region and which is counter to a force of at least one compression spring on the pressure indicating element.
