  • Publication number: 20160281714
    Abstract: A compressor for a motor vehicle includes a compressor housing delimiting a compressor interior with respect to the environment. The compressor housing has a first housing part with a first end face and a second housing part with a second end face. The first and second housing parts are fastened to one another with the formation of an overlapping region between the end faces in longitudinal direction, which extends from an end facing the compressor interior to an end facing the environment. An elastically compressible or compressed seal device is arranged in the overlapping region, which extends at least up to or beyond the end of the overlapping region facing the environment.

  • Patent number: 6935365
    Abstract: A rotary slide for medium-carrying pipelines is proposed, comprising a housing (1) capable of being installed between two pipeline ends and having a stop member (9) for shutting off the pipeline and having an actuating device (8) for actuating the stop member, the housing possessing a first reception region (4) for receiving the stop member in the closed position of the rotary slide, a second reception region (5) for receiving the stop member in the open position of the rotary slide and a drive region (3) for receiving the actuating device, and the drive region (3) being arranged in the housing (1) separately from the first and the second reception region (4, 5). The rotary slide is distinguished by a compact and corrosion-resistant form of construction.

  • Patent number: 4864565
    Abstract: A frame start word derived by superframe formation is found by testing for the presence of a correct binary value combination each bit position in a time window having the length of as many bits as framing bits are spaced apart, with the inclusion of so many overframes that a decision can be reached on the possibility of a relationsip to the frame start word. If this is to be excluded the corresponding bit position is flagged and thereafter no longer taken into consideration. Otherwise, the next binary value of the corresponding bit position is inferred from the binary value present. The procedure is continued, always including the same number of overframes until only one unflagged bit position remains.
