Abstract: A method for mounting a valve needle and a bearing bush in an expansion valve for an air conditioning system may including providing a bearing bush and providing a valve needle. The bearing bush may include a circumferential wall. The valve needle may include a mounting groove having two groove flanks and a groove base. The method may also include forming a needle-bush arrangement in which the bearing bush may be received in the mounting groove via one of (i) axial sliding-in the valve needle into the bearing bush and (ii) axial sliding-on the bearing bush onto the valve needle. The method may further include mounting the needle-bush arrangement in a mounting bore of the expansion valve, which may include (i) forming a press fit between the circumferential wall and the mounting bore, and/or (ii) forming a clearance fit between the groove base and the bearing bush.

Abstract: A water level sensor device of a fuel filter may include a printed circuit board and a water level sensor composed of electrically conductive plastic. The water level sensor may be coupled to the printed circuit board via an electrically conductive metal element. The metal element may be coupled to the water level sensor via a press-fit assembly. The metal element may include a sharp-edged fastening contour configured to tear open the plastic of the water level sensor when the metal element is pressed against the water level sensor.

Abstract: A method for mounting and setting an actuator of an exhaust gas turbocharger and a suitable electric actuating device are provided. The actuating device has an axially movable actuating rod which is connected to a coupling element which for its part is connected via a pivot pin to an actuation section of a bypass valve, the actuation section being configured as a lever arm. In order to set the desired closed position of the bypass valve during a predefined actuation of the actuating device, the coupling element is first connected to the actuating rod while still being displaceable. Before the fixing, the position of the actuating device which corresponds to the closed position is set by application of the corresponding voltage to the electric actuating device. Subsequently, a prestressing force is applied to the coupling element coaxially with respect to the actuating rod via a pneumatic actuator.
