  • Patent number: 10662931
    Abstract: A diaphragm cell for damping pressure pulsations in a low-pressure region of a piston pump has two axially deformable diaphragms that are connected along their radial peripheries and enclose a gas space. The diaphragms each have a central region that extends over no less than 50% of the cross-sectional surface area of the diaphragms. The diaphragms are of undulating shape in the central region, which is curved axially outwards in its radially inner region and in its radially outer region. The diaphragms further include an axially inwardly curved annular region that is arranged between and immediately adjacent to the radially inner region and the radially outer region. An axially-measured amplitude of the wave shape has a predetermined range related to the cross-sectional surface area of the diaphragms when the pressure difference is zero. The pressure difference is a pressure in the gas space minus a pressure outside the gas space.

  • Patent number: 10661806
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a drive device (1) of a motor vehicle, having an internal combustion engine (2), an electric machine (3), and a dual-clutch transmission (4). The dual-clutch transmission (4) has two clutches (K1, K2), by means of which the transmission can be connected to the internal combustion engine (2). At least the internal combustion engine (2) is actuated in a driving operation in order to generate a target drive torque, and the clutches (K1, K2) are actuated in opposite directions for a gear shift. During a gear shift, the electric machine (3) which is connected to the dual-clutch transmission (4) without a clutch is actuated such that the electric machine completely or partly generates the target torque at least temporarily.

  • Patent number: 10666106
    Abstract: Stators are already known which in each case comprise an annular stator stack having grooves which are open towards an axis of the stator and in which an electrical winding is provided which comprises a plurality of winding branches. The plurality of winding branches each have a plurality of parallel wires for reducing the so-called skin effect. The parallel wires are arranged in the grooves, wherein the winding branches in their configuration each form a plurality of turns of a coil which are each part of an electrical coil, wherein a turn of a coil is formed in each case by two sides of a turn, lying in different grooves, of one of the winding branches and by a turn side connector which connects the two sides of a turn to one another. In electrical windings having parallel wires, an unfavourable wire position and a resulting linking of different magnetic flows may lead to disadvantageous compensating or circular currents which produce additional copper losses in the electric motor.
