Patent number: 8105025Abstract: A collecting chamber of a flow machine which expands in the direction of circumference, including at least one outer shell part and a contour insert is provided. The contour insert is provided with a groove which extends in the circumferential direction and is preferably configured as a helical spiral. The contour insert, is cut from a whole unit and is delimited at one end in the circumferential direction by a bent edge so that the flow losses are minimized during the passage from the collecting chamber into a subsequent diffuser.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2009Date of Patent: January 31, 2012Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Heinrich Albrecht, Michael Jeske, Werner Jonen, Daniel Wentzel, Jan Weule

Patent number: 8047349Abstract: An electromotive actuator for deflecting a motor vehicle part includes a rotatable component and a non-rotatable component. The rotatable component can be driven by an electric motor in such a way that it can be moved linearly relative to the non-rotatable component between a first position and a second position. In order to create a compact adjustment device, the two components of the actuator are configured respectively as a threaded spindle and a threaded nut, whereby the rotatable component (threaded spindle or threaded nut) is non-rotatably connected to the rotor of the electric motor and can act directly or indirectly on the vehicle part that is to be deflected.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2007Date of Patent: November 1, 2011Assignee: ZF Friedrichshafen AGInventor: Jan Weule

Publication number: 20080001490Abstract: A device having an adjusting drive and a transfer element. The adjusting drive includes a stator and a rotor. The transfer element converts rotational motion to translational motion. The stator is axially longer than the rotor which axially slides within the stator. The difference in length approximately corresponds to the extent of desired axial movement of the rotor. Thus the rotor is provided with a constant electromagnetic torque over the length of axial movement of the rotor. The transfer element, located within the rotor, has a nut/screw connection, which converts torque into an axial adjusting force. A gap, between the stator and rotor, has a size relating to the desired electromagnetic properties of the motor and acts as a bearing during axial movement of the rotor, thus reducing the number of parts needed for the device parts, the amount of wear and favorable production costs when compared with conventional solutions.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2007Publication date: January 3, 2008Applicant: ZF Friedrichshafen AGInventors: Karl-Hermann Ketteler, Jan Weule
