Abstract: A valve having at least one valve housing and at least one piston. The valve housing (7) has a hollow-cylindrical first portion (11) with a first diameter (D1) and a second portion (12), connected to the first portion (11), with a second diameter (D2); a first opening (15) is formed on the end face of the valve housing (7) and at least a second opening (16) is formed in the second portion (12); and the first diameter (D1) of the first portion (11) is greater than the second diameter (D2) of the second portion.

Abstract: A device for controlling pressures of a flow medium in a component in which the device is formed at least by the component and at least one valve; the valve has an axially oriented valve axis and is seated, at least in part, in the component and has at least one opening. The opening leads into an annular gap which at least partly surrounds the valve, and the annular gap is formed between the valve and the component. The annular gap is sealed by at least one seal.

Abstract: A securing element (1, 11, 12, 13, 14) made of sheet metal with an annular body (3, 12a, 26) and with holding tongues (4, 41, 42, 43, 44) which emerge from the annular body (3, 12a, 26) and end at a hole (6) in the securing element (1, 11, 12, 13, 14), which hole is centered with respect to the center axis (5) of the securing element (1, 11, 12, 13, 14), wherein the hole (6) leads axially in the same direction as the center axis (5) through the securing element (1, 11, 12, 13, 14) and, at radial narrowest hole cross sections of the hole (6), is bounded at least by end edges (7, 71, 72, 73, 74) formed on the end sides of the holding tongues (4, 41, 42, 43, 44).

Abstract: A securing element (1) with an annular body (3, 12a, 26) and with holding tongues (4) which emerge from the annular body (3, 12a, 26) and end at a hole (6) in the securing element (1), which hole is centered with respect to the center axis (5) of the securing element (1), wherein the hole (6) leads axially in the same direction as the center axis (5) through the securing element (1) and, at the radial narrowest points of the hole (6), is bounded at least by end edges (7) formed on the end sides of the holding tongues (4), and wherein in each case at least two surfaces (8, 9) bounding part of the holding tongue (4) meet and end at the respective end edge (7), and of which one of the surfaces (8) is formed on the front side of the holding tongue (4).
