Patent number: 8394165Abstract: A diaphragm carburettor is connected via a suction port with the clean air side of an air filter. A regulating chamber with a fuel chamber is connected with the suction port, in which the fuel chamber is acted upon with underpressure from the suction port and is separated from a compensation chamber by a regulating diaphragm formed to control the fuel supply to the fuel chamber. The compensation chamber is connected via a compensation path with the clean air side of the air filter and/or with the suction port so that pressure vibrations are reduced in the compensation chamber. A control and/or regulating element associated with the compensation path alters the length and/or the diameter of the compensation path.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2008Date of Patent: March 12, 2013Assignee: DOLMAR GmbHInventors: Torsten Haussner, Harald Krause

Patent number: 8387383Abstract: An air control valve for internal combustion engines having a turbocharger, is placed inside a bypass channel between a pressure side and an intake side of a boost pressure pump of the turbocharger, and has a housing which incorporates an electromagnetic drive unit and a valve unit movable in the housing. The valve unit has a valve rod and a valve closing body attached thereto and a circular sealing element. An arrangement is provided to keep the moving valve unit in a closed position when no current is supplied to the valve unit. At least one pressure compensation opening is provided in the moving valve unit, and the valve closing body has a cylindrical lateral surface which is arranged in such a manner that a housing interior is sealed towards the pressure side or the intake side.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2006Date of Patent: March 5, 2013Assignee: Pierburg GmbHInventors: Michael Thiery, Max Herrmann, Harald Krause, Heinrich Dismon, Martin Nowak, Rolf Lappan

Patent number: 7757873Abstract: The invention describes a bypass valve (1) that can be used as a divert air valve. Bypass valves (1) that work in the closed or opened position in a force-balanced or pressure-balanced manner are known. During the opening of the bypass valve (1), a lower pressure is produced in a gap (25) between a valve closing body (3) and a valve seat (20), which pressure destroys the force balance and thus loads a movable valve unit (2) in the closing direction. In order to prevent this, according to the invention pressure equalization openings (24) are embodied or arranged with respect to the gap (25) in such a way that a reduced pressure is introduced into the chambers (7, 8) in the interior of the valve, so that the closing-operative force is distinctly reduced. By these means, the opening times of such a bypass valve can be distinctly reduced.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 2006Date of Patent: July 20, 2010Assignee: PIERBURG GmbHInventors: Michael Thiery, Dietmar Miemczyk, Harald Krause

Patent number: 7467246Abstract: A local network comprises at least one master and a plurality of slaves which can be controlled by the master via a data bus, with at least one slave being arranged in an unprotected region and at least one slave being arranged in n protected region. In this connection, data originating from a respective slave in the unprotected region can admittedly be transmitted via the data bus to the master, but not to any slave in the unprotected region.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2006Date of Patent: December 16, 2008Assignee: Delphi Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Markus Larisch, Rainer Bego-Ghina, Harald Krause

Patent number: 5503185Abstract: An electromagnetic reversing valve in which a slidable armature is supported with clearance in a housing and carries a plastic seal unit for selectively closing first and second channels in the housing upon sliding movement of the armature, the sealing unit provides a separate fluid passage establishing communication between a third channel in the housing and one of the first and second channels when it is unsealed. Since the clearance space around the slidable armature is separate and independent from the fluid passage in the seal unit, it can be made substantially narrower in dimension than the fluid passage, thereby to minimize the iron-free gap between the slidable armature and the surrounding member of the magnetic circuit. The iron-free gap is formed in part by the clearance space and in part by a portion of the housing in which the magnetic circuit member is embedded.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 1994Date of Patent: April 2, 1996Assignee: Pierburg GmbHInventor: Harald Krause
