Abstract: The present invention relates to a fluid separation device (10) for separating fluid, oil and oil spray from a gas. This fluid separation device (10) comprises a base carrier (21) in which fluid separator elements (20) in the form of flow-through tubes with worm-like segments (23) arranged therein, are integrated. The worm-like segments (23) at the same time form spiral flow paths (25) for the gas. They have a maximal length of half a pitch of the worm-like segment (23) so that the base carrier (21) together with the associated fluid separator elements (20) may be formed as one piece. Several base carriers may be arranged one after the other in a manner such that individual fluid separator elements of various base carriers form a common flow path for the gas.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cylinder head cover for covering a cylinder head of a combustion engine. Such cylinder head covers often comprise an oil separator for separating oil and/or oil spray from the blow-by gas of combustion engines. With the present invention the oil separator is formed as a flow-through tube (10) through which the gas with the oil and/or oil spray to be separated flows. The flow-through tube (10) with its longitudinal axis (14) in the flow-through direction lies essentially in the plane of extension of the cylinder head cover (1). A worm-like segment is arranged in the flow-through tube (10), and its thread surfaces (21) form a spiral flow path (2). At the same time the cross section of the flow path lies between 1 mm2 and 800 mm2.

Abstract: A separator for separating liquid components, in particular oil components, from a gas flow is disclosed including a cyclone and a tank. The liquid separator has a cyclone 1 with a separating chamber 2 including gas supply 3 and gas discharge 4 and a tank 5 which is connected to the cyclone 1 via a connection opening 6. The interior of the tank 5 is filled at least partially with a porous open-pore material 7 in order to interrupt the flow, dampen the flow, dampen the oscillations and/or discharge the liquid.

Abstract: The invention relates to a connecting system comprising a connecting element and at least two structural parts. The structural parts are here connected to each other in a form- or force-locking manner through the connecting system which is designed as a spring element. Such connecting systems are preferably used in the automobile sector for connecting structural parts.
