Patent number: 11486529Abstract: A connector arrangement for conducting liquid urea solutions. The connector arrangement includes a distributor, with at least three connecting elements, and a connecting component, located between the connecting elements, with inner channels running within the connecting component. Three individual lines having connecting means are connected to the connecting elements of the distributor by the connecting means, and a housing surrounds the distributor and at least a part of the individual line. The distributor is disposed in the housing together with end sections of the connected individual lines. A channel line inner diameter of the inner channels and a total length of the inner channels and a wall thickness of the distributor in the connecting component are dimensioned such that ice pressure on the distributor, which occurs as a result of the freezing of a liquid within the distributor, does not result in any destruction.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2019Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: VOSS AUTOMOTIVE GMBHInventors: Lukas Röhrig, Alexander Oberdörfer, Eugen Heinrichs

Patent number: 11199285Abstract: A plug-type connector for media lines having a coupling part into which a plug part can be inserted. The plug part can be retainingly engaged in the coupling part by a retaining clip that has at least two pairs of spring arms. The clip can be premounted on the coupling part by latching of the spring arms. The clip is U-shaped wherein legs of the U-shape form the two pairs of spring arms, which pairs are arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal direction and are separated by a slot and are elastic in the radial and axial directions. The first pair of the spring arms interlockingly blocks the plug part against being pulling out of the coupling part, and the second pair of spring arms holds the retaining clip captively in the coupling part in pre-assembly and assembly positions.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2016Date of Patent: December 14, 2021Assignee: VOSS Automotive GmbHInventors: Jochem-Andreas Hess, Eugen Heinrichs, Alexander Oberdörfer, Sascha Rosenfeldt, Lukas Röhrig

Patent number: 11009164Abstract: A toothed disk for fastening a feedthrough-plug-connected media line. The toothed disk includes a circular insertion opening that is defined at a periphery of the insertion opening by elastic holding teeth, separated from each other by respective slots. In the axial direction, the holding teeth extend at an angle to a longitudinal axis that is perpendicular the plane of the insertion opening. Each holding tooth is connected to an outer mounting section by at least one connecting web. Punch-outs are formed between the connecting webs. A mounting section is arranged on a peripheral circle around the insertion opening and lies in a plane parallel to the plane of the insertion opening. Each holding tooth is connected to the mounting section by at least two connecting webs. Also provided is a connection assembly for the feedthrough plug connection of a media line including the toothed disk.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2016Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: VOSS Automotive GmbHInventors: Harald Hagen, Markus Frangenberg, Lukas Röhrig, Markus Waschkewitz

Publication number: 20210140577Abstract: A connector arrangement for connecting heatable fluid lines including at least one first coupling component and at least one second coupling component. The first coupling component and the second coupling component being connectable to each other, and each including at least one first fluid line, at least one first fluid line interface, at least one first electrical conductor, and at least one first electrical interface. The second coupling component includes at least one second fluid lien, and at least one of the first and second coupling components includes at least one fluid line splitter.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2019Publication date: May 13, 2021Inventors: Andreas BAENSCH, Martin SACHSE, Daniel HÄGER, Eugen HEINRICHS, Marco ISENBURG, Jochem-Andreas HESS, Waldemar WILMS, Lukas RÖHRIG

Patent number: 10948116Abstract: A coupling element of a plug connection for tubing includes a retaining screw with an inner passage opening. The inner passage has a bearing shoulder on which a retaining element is arranged and behind which a sealing element is mounted. A sleeve-shaped spacing element is arranged between the retaining element and the sealing element, and the retaining element is axially held between the spacing element and a bearing shoulder of the inner passage opening. The sleeve-shaped spacing element has an axial length such that a restriction in the diameter of the wall of the inserted tube, produced when the retaining element is under load, is bridged by the spacing element such that the annular sealing element abuts against an undeformed area of the tube wall.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 2017Date of Patent: March 16, 2021Assignee: VOSS Automotive GmbHInventors: Harald Hagen, Lukas Röhrig, Markus Waschkewitz, Markus Frangenberg

Patent number: 10927992Abstract: A plug connector including a coupling part with a receiving opening into which a plug part, having a plug shaft with a collar, can be inserted. The plug connector also includes a resilient, radially slotted retaining clip having at least two spring arms and which can be pre-assembled on the coupling part and moved radially between an insertion position and a holding position for the plug part. The plug part can be inserted into the receiving opening when the retaining clip is in the insertion position, and when in the holding position he plugged-in plug part, and the collar thereof, can be blocked by the retaining clip against being pulled out. In the insertion position, the retaining clip projects with respect to the outer circumference of the coupling part, and in the holding position the retaining clip is flush with the outer circumference of the coupling part.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2016Date of Patent: February 23, 2021Assignee: VOSS Automotive GmbHInventors: Alexander Oberdörfer, Lukas Röhrig
