  • Publication number: 20090004035
    Abstract: A motor/pump assembly, in particular for a motor vehicle braking apparatus is fixed axially on an end face of the pump housing. The brush plate forms the termination face of the motor with respect to the pump housing. The boundary area of the motor housing which faces the pump housing and that area of the brush plate which is radially adjacent to the boundary area of the motor housing each have a seal-accommodating step, into which a seal is inserted which is compressed axially by the pump housing being fixed to the motor.

  • Publication number: 20050207914
    Abstract: The invention relates to a motor pump assembly having a motor housing, a pump housing, and an electronic component housing located one behind the other. The pump housing has a hole through which at least two mutually electrically insulated electric leads surrounded by an insulating sleeve are ducted from the motor housing to the electronic component housing. The electric leads, which are preferably embodied as flat connector lugs, are provided inside the insulating sleeve with an offset.

  • Patent number: 6945757
    Abstract: Despite the axial sandwich assembly of the motor housing (1), pump housing (2) and electronics housing (3), it is possible by using simple manufacturing and assembly techniques to provide a plug connection, which is free from distortions and resistant to breaking, with supply lines and control lines (4.1; 4.2) that start from a brush plate (6) inside the motor housing (1) and pass through the pump housing (2) up to the electronics housing (3). To this end, the supply and control lines (4.1; 4.2) are fastened in the manner of a fixed plug via their ends, which are located on the motor housing, as a pre-assembled component to a fastening flange (6.2) that radially projects above the motor housing (1). The fastening flange (6.2), in the plugging direction counter to its plug connection with the electronics housing (3), can be supported via at least one supporting rib (6.1) on the outer periphery of the motor housing (1).

  • Patent number: 6945756
    Abstract: Despite an axial sandwich structure of a motor housing (1), pump housing (2) and electronics housing (3), in a simple production and installation process a plug-in connection comprising power supply and control conductors (4.1;4.2) that is devoid of distortion can be produced between a brush plate (6) in the motor housing (1) and the electronics housing (3) passing though the pump housing (2). To achieve this, the power supply or control conductors (4.1;4.2) are configured as a fixed plug-in connector, with their ends on the motor housing side fixed into the brush plate (5) in the form of a pre-assembled component unit, in particular as a one-piece, bent part of a punched grid (4) that has been injected into said brush plate. Their free plug-in ends on the other hand, which are surrounded by an elastic insulating jacket, can be elastically bent away in a transversal direction to their axial direction of insertion in order to compensate tolerances.

  • Publication number: 20030180163
    Abstract: A driven-side rotor shaft end of an electric motor is drive-connected to a drive-side pump shaft end of a pump via a coupling piece, in the manner of a cardan joint, in each case by means of the positive axial plug receptacle. The invention provides protection against torsional thrusts and axial vibrations, and a play-free drive by virtue of a conical design of the plug receptacle, at the same time with a mutual axial prestress of the rotor shaft end and pump shaft end.
