Abstract: The invention is directed to a solenoid plunger system for an electro-pneumatic pressure transducer comprising at least partially in a cladding, particularly an iron cladding, a solenoid plunger, a core such as an iron core or a magnetic core, at least a first recess in the solenoid plunger and/or a second recess in the core and an air gap between the cladding and the solenoid plunger and/or the core that is adjustable by means of a relative motion between the solenoid plunger and the core while the solenoid plunger is at least partially movable into or, respectively, out of the second recess in the core and/or the core is at least partially movable into or, respectively, out of the first recess in the solenoid plunger, as well as a first damping element in the first recess and/or a second damping element in the second recess.

Abstract: A valve block for at least two valves fixable in a housing having an electric cabling to electrical terminals for the valves and a pneumatic circuit to pneumatic terminals for the valves. The block has an electrical plug connected to the electrical cabling, which extends to the electrical terminals and has a pneumatic plug connected to the pneumatic circuit, which extends to the pneumatic terminals, and the pneumatic circuit proceeds at least partly in a replaceable insert of the housing that can be selected dependent on the valves and/or their function. The pneumatic plug has at least one pneumatic plug connector selectable dependent on the valves and/or their function.

Abstract: The invention relates to a silencer (1) for noise-laden gas pipes, especially for a suction pipe and/or an exhaust pipe of an internal combustion engine, comprising an outer pipe (2) with an inlet side (3) and an outlet side (4), a plurality of diaphragm rings (9, 9′, 9″, ′″, 9″″) each with an outer surface connected (5) to the inner surface of the outer pipe (2), at least one insert (6) with an outer surface connected (7) to the inner surface of the outer pipe (2) and/or the diaphragm rings (9, 9′, 9″, 9′″, 9″″) and with a plurality of openings (8) which are closed on one side. Said insert (6) forms sub-pipes for the gas flow in the silencer, and the openings (8), which are closed on one side, open into the sub-pipes, the depth thereof being /4 in relation to the wavelength of a frequency to be silenced.
