Abstract: A crankcase gas separator includes a separator housing delimiting at least part of a separation space and forming at least part of a liquid phase receiving circumferential inner wall surface, a wall member forming at least part of a gas passage, and a gas pressure regulating valve including at least part of the gas passage. The separator includes a separate tube member extending from a position radially inside the inner wall surface into the gas passage. A liquid tight seal between the separate tube member and the wall member is formed by a joint arranged radially outside the inner wall surface.

Abstract: A centrifugal separator for cleaning gas containing contaminants includes a stationary casing module including a surrounding side wall enclosing a separation space through which a gas flow is permitted, a gas outlet for cleaned gas, and at least one drainage opening for draining separated liquid contaminants from a lower portion of the stationary casing module; a rotating module including a plurality of separation members arranged in said separation space and being arranged to rotate around an axis of rotation; a drive member arranged for rotating the rotating module around the axis of rotation; and an inlet module arranged axially above the stationary casing module, including an inlet pipe for supply of the gas to be cleaned to the inlet module. The inlet module is in fluid contact with the separation space and a liquid outlet module arranged axially below the stationary casing module and configured to permit discharge of liquid contaminants drained from the stationary casing module.

Abstract: A centrifugal separator for separating a liquid phase from a crankcase gas includes a housing, a separation chamber inside the housing, a rotor shaft, a rotor connected to the rotor shaft, a bearing arranged at an end portion of the rotor shaft, and a liquid outlet for the separated liquid phase. The end portion of the rotor shaft extends through the bearing outside the separation chamber. A ring-shaped sealing gap is formed between the housing and a member connected to the rotor shaft outside the separation chamber. The liquid outlet is arranged, seen in relation to the axial direction, radially outside the bearing and radially inside a radially outer end of the ring-shaped sealing gap.

Abstract: A housing for a centrifugal separator is disclosed, wherein the centrifugal separator is configured to separate a liquid phase from crankcase gases of an internal combustion engine using a rotor. The housing includes a housing body forming a separation chamber, an opening in the housing body, a bearing retainer arranged at the opening, and a bearing inserted into the bearing retainer. The bearing is configured to receive a rotor shaft extending into the separation chamber. The bearing retainer includes a bearing seat portion provided with a number of plastically deformed zones retaining the bearing in the bearing retainer. A centrifugal separator and a method of retaining a bearing of a rotor shaft in a housing for a centrifugal separator are also disclosed.

Abstract: A centrifugal separator for separating a liquid phase from crankcase gases of an internal combustion engine includes a separation chamber, a rotor shaft, a rotor inside the separation chamber, an inlet for crankcase gases, a gas outlet, and a liquid outlet for separated liquid phase. The centrifugal separator also includes a liquid outlet chamber, a check valve, and a rotating member. The liquid outlet chamber forms an individual chamber and is arranged in fluid communication with the separation chamber via a liquid passage. The rotating member is connected to the rotor shaft and is arranged inside the liquid outlet chamber. The liquid outlet forms an outlet of the liquid outlet chamber. The check valve is arranged in the liquid outlet.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a disc brake having one or more sliding or floating brake discs. The discs are received on a hub by means of splines on the discs and hub, respectively. The discs have means to widen the support of each disc on the hub. The means may have the form of one or more rings, pins and/or clips attached to the discs.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a modular disc brake, preferably for a heavy road vehicle. The modular disc brake comprises a frame, a house and a cover. A brake mechanism forming a single pre-mounted unit is received in the house. The modules are held together by means of pull rods and nuts. The house is received in a recess of the frame. The cover covers the end of the house. The frame is of a floating type having openings to receive sliding pins.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a brake mechanism of a disc brake received in a caliper and a method for controlling the force amplification for the brake mechanism. The brake mechanism comprises a lever actuated by a brake actuator. The lever is acting on a cross bar by means of an intermediate part. The lever and the intermediate part have a line of contact moving along a circular arc during an application stroke of the brake mechanism. The cross bar of the brake mechanism is closely guided and is only moveable in the thrust direction and in the tangential direction of the brake disc. The force amplification of the brake mechanism is adapted to the force characteristics of the brake actuator.
