  • Patent number: 10641341
    Abstract: A connection system for connecting a component to a gear wheel, wherein the gear wheel comprises helical gearing having a tooth helix angle and a first connecting section, and the component comprises a second connecting section by way of which the component can be connected or is connected to the first connecting section, wherein the component, in the second connecting section, comprises at least one depression or elevation that is operatively connected to the first connecting section when the component is connected to the first connecting section, wherein the depression has a connection helix angle, and the connection helix angle is defined as follows: 0°????. The disclosure furthermore relates to a device for transmitting a rotational movement, comprising a rotatable component and a gear wheel, wherein the gear wheel and the component are connected by way of such a connection system.

  • Patent number: 10571010
    Abstract: A drive wheel (10; 100) wherein the drive wheel (10; 100) is formed by an injection-molding process, and has a longitudinal axis (11; 108), having a hub region (12; 102) with a hub opening (13; 102), having an annular toothed-rim region (17; 106) with a radially outwardly projecting toothing (18; 105), having a substantially disk-like intermediate region (15; 112) which is arranged radially between the hub region (12; 102) and the toothed-rim region (17; 106), wherein the drive wheel (10; 100) has two bearing points (31, 32), arranged concentrically with the longitudinal axis (11; 108), for radial mounting and two bearing points (33, 34; 121, 122), for axial mounting, and wherein the hub region (12; 102) has an extension (14; 103) that protrudes from the plane of the intermediate region (15; 112) in the direction of the longitudinal axis (11; 108).

  • Patent number: 9835238
    Abstract: The invention relates to a multicomponent gear having an outer part with a toothed rim, an inner part, and a connecting part made of plastic for the positive locking connection of the inner part and the outer part. The outer part is thereby arranged on an outer circumferential surface and the inner part is arranged on an inner circumferential surface of the connecting part. The connecting part is additionally provided with a plurality of indentations on two opposite primary surfaces lying outside and perpendicular to a rotational axis. The invention is thereby characterized in that the indentations in the first primary surface of the connecting part are, in comparison to the indentations in the second primary surface of the connecting part, arranged offset to each other radially and/or in the circumferential direction to the rotational axis.
