Patent number: 10087930Abstract: A vane for a vane cell vacuum pump. The vane can be rotated about an axis of rotation by a rotor in a pump chamber and guided in the longitudinal direction in the rotor, with an upper side and a lower side to abut against the bottom and the ceiling of the pump chamber, with a rear side opposite a front side to limit the pressure chambers, with at least one face to slidably abut against an inside wall of the pump chamber on the casing side. The vane comprises a base body of a first plastic material and a vane end molded of a second plastic material to the base body forming the face. The base body comprises a mounting section around which the vane end is formed. The mounting section comprises at least one recess transverse to the front side and/or the rear side.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2016Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: Joma-Polytec GmbHInventors: Hans-Peter Ott, Bernd Hess, Stefanie Wuhrer, Martin Thoma, Torsten Helle, Friedhelm Pfitzer

Patent number: 8282821Abstract: An oil filter assembly (10) has a receiving chamber (18) that can be closed by a cover element (14) and a spring-loaded supporting tube (22) that is fixed in the receiving chamber and is designed to receive a filter element (20) that can be radially traversed by oil. The supporting tube (22) is axially displaceable between an operating position and a drain position in such a way that, in the operating position when the receiving chamber is closed by the cover element (14), the tube closes a drain opening (42). When the receiving chamber is open in the drain position, the tube releases the drain opening. The supporting tube is mounted to rotate through a rotational angle that is limited by two rotational stops (41, 43) in the housing and the cover element has follower sections (66, 68, 70) that co-operate with the supporting tube and/or filter element to rotate the supporting tube through the rotational angle when the cover element is screwed on and/or unscrewed.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2007Date of Patent: October 9, 2012Assignee: Joma-Polytec Kunststofftechnik GmbHInventors: Jan Maier, Friedhelm Pfitzer, Alexander Maute, Stefan Heinz, Peter Jungmann, Matthias Knoell

Patent number: 7842183Abstract: An oil filter assembly (10) comprises a housing (12) that has a holding space for a filter element (20), which can be placed inside the housing and through which oil can radially flow, an oil inlet, an oil outlet, and a supporting tube (22), which supports the filter element. A guide (62) for a compensating body of the outlet valve is provided on a part that is separate from the housing (12). The compensating body (58) serves to compensate for axial tolerances of the housing and/or of the filter element.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2006Date of Patent: November 30, 2010Assignee: Joma-Polytec Kunststofftechnik GmbHInventors: Stefan Heinz, Friedhelm Pfitzer, Peter Jungmann, Alexander Maute
