Abstract: A suction apparatus for cleaning purposes includes a container, a suction subassembly, a filter element arranged in a container interior, and a pumping subassembly, where a mixture of a carrier fluid and particles of dirt can be taken in via a suction inlet and the particles of dirt are restrained by the filter element. The filter element is a filter bag through which the mixture is taken in by the suction subassembly. A filter bag restraining part subdivides the container interior into a filter bag accommodating space and a fluid delivery space, where the filter bag is arranged in the filter bag accommodating space and is prevented, by the filter bag restraining part, from expanding into the fluid delivery space, from which carrier fluid flowing around, or through, the filter bag restraining part is delivered by the pumping subassembly.

Abstract: A common rail distributor rail (2) for supplying an internal combustion engine with fuel comprises an inner pressure pipe (3), an outer jacket (4) as well as joint pieces (5) for connecting high-pressure conduits. Thereby, the joint pieces (5) are fixedly connected to the outer jacket (4), in particular by way of thermal joining, and by way of this form a double-walled system with a pressure-tight sealing of the jacket.

Abstract: A screwed connection has at least one first component (1) which is provided with an internal screw thread (2) and which is screwed together with a second component (3) which is provided with a matching external screw thread (4). The screwed connection is used to transmit a tightening power (F). Thread sealants (6) are introduced between the external and the internal screw thread, thereby sealing the screwed connection.

Abstract: A fuel injection system in which only one pump element at a time can aspirate fuel. As a result, it is attained that even in partial-load operation, all the pump elements are in operation, and as a consequence the smooth operation of the engine in partial-load operation is improved.

Abstract: A high-pressure fuel accumulator for a common-rail fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine has a tubular main body (1) to which is welded at least one bushing (13) for connecting a high-pressure line (6). To improve the quality and safety of the high-pressure connections, a collar (14) is formed on the end of the bushing (13) facing the main body (1).

Abstract: In a fuel high pressure accumulator for fuel injection devices an intersecting region between a storage chamber and a connection opening of a connection pipe, as well as a region of an outer wall which is opposite to the connecting region are designed to improve pressure strength.

Abstract: A high-pressure fuel accumulator for a common-rail fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine includes a tubular main body which is equipped with a plurality of connections. In order to provide a high-pressure fuel accumulator which may be used for a large number of similar engines, a continuous connecting strip or several connections, whose dimensions in the longitudinal direction of the tubular main body are greater than the space required for connections, are provided on the tubular main body.

Abstract: In a component, in particular a high-pressure part for a fuel injection system, having intersecting bores, at least one bore of the two intersecting bores is designed with a flat region, and the component has inherent compressive stresses in the area of the flat region of the bore. This yields an increase in strength of the component in the area of the intersection point of the two bores.
