  • Patent number: 10069359
    Abstract: An electric motor has an internal stator (21) and an external rotor (2). The external rotor (2) has a rotor housing (3) and a plurality of magnets (9) mounted therein and is adapted to rotate around a rotation axis (10); the magnets (9) are preferably bar magnets; the rotor housing (3) has an inner surface (7), a first end (5), and a second end (6) located opposite the first end (5) and the inner surface defines respective receiving surfaces (11) for reception of the magnets. each receiving surface features a channel depression (13) to receive a magnet (9). The magnets (9) are each fastened on a respective one of the receiving surfaces (11) with the aid of an adhesive mounting agent (36). A first bearing seat (14) for reception of a first bearing cage (15) is formed at the second end (6) of the rotor housing (3).

  • Patent number: 7318449
    Abstract: A mixer cartridge contains a plate-type control system, the control plate of which is displaceable and twistable by an actuating element configured as a double-armed lever. The displacement leads to an opening and closing of the valve, while the twisting serves to alter the temperature. According to the invention, it is envisioned that the maximum opening and closing position of a holding plate controlling the movable control plate is limited by stops. For the actuating element, a stop is also provided, which acts in the same way, yet is arranged such that it still has a minimum distance from the actuating element when the holding plate is already bearing against the stop.

  • Publication number: 20060157666
    Abstract: In order to make a cartridge usable for different sealing systems, a cartridge base is proposed into whose opening, which serves the passage of water into the valve system contained in the cartridge, a sleeve can be inserted. The sleeve juts beyond that end face of the cartridge base which faces the fitting housing, into the fitting housing. Between the radial outer side and a recess in the fitting housing, a seal can be placed. The cartridge base can also be used for those cases where a sealing system is already present in the fitting housing. In this case, the sleeve is simply removed.

  • Publication number: 20040016816
    Abstract: A thermostatic valve for sanitary fittings contains an extensible material element, which is exposed to the temperature of the mixed water resulting from the mixing of hot and cold water. The extensible material element is operatively connected to two closing bodies each associated with a valve and which move simultaneously when the mixed water temperature changes.

  • Patent number: 6676025
    Abstract: A temperature-controlled mixer valve contains a disk control for determining the quantity of mixed water flowing out of the valve. To the disk control is connected a regulating unit, which determines the mixed water temperature. The control disk is movable with respect to the fixed distributor disk in a first degree of freedom for determining the mixed water quantity. By control disk movement in a second degree of freedom, the desired temperature of the thermostatic valve is modified.
