Abstract: The present invention presents a pumping system (1) with a preheated reservoir (2), a main pump (4) for pumping a preheated liquid (3) from the reservoir (2), and pressurizing means (5) for pressurizing the reservoir (2). Preferably, the pressurizing means set an absolute pressure of 0.5 to 1 bar in the reservoir (2). The liquid (3) in the reservoir (2) can be heated up to 90° C. or more. The present invention achieves a nearly complete suppression of the phenomenon of cavitation at the main pump entrance, and thus achieves an increased pumping performance at elevated liquid temperatures.

Abstract: A system component of a control device, especially for a transmission or engine controller of a motor vehicle, is provided as a closed system component for a control device which can be transported, thereby allowing decentralized manufacturing of the system component. The system component has a hybrid circuit, equipped with electronic components, which is embedded in a printed circuit board, recessed in the center, in such a manner that the hybrid circuit is completely enclosed by the printed circuit board. The hybrid circuit and the printed circuit board are mounted on a base element and connected to each other via contact elements. A cover element is positioned on top of the hybrid circuit and the contact elements in such a manner that the hybrid circuit is fully encapsulated by the base element, the cover element and the printed circuit board from environmental influences.

Abstract: A conductor track carrier is intended to contact-connect electrical components. The carrier has a flexible base film, a conductor track on the base film, and a contact-connection eye arranged in a contact-connection section of the conductor track carrier and electrically coupled to the conductor track. The conductor track carrier has a respective recess on two opposite sides of the contact-connection section, and web elements formed between the recesses in such a manner that the contact-connection section is pivotably mounted.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cable for bringing into contact with a contact point of a flexible strip conductor, to a contact strip for one or more cables of this type, and to a system for bringing control electronics, which are situated on a flexible printed circuit board, into contact with at least one electrical and/or electronic component. The component is, particularly, a mechatronic transmission or engine controller of a motor vehicle. A special contact with a welding boss is placed at the end of a cable. A bundle of cables of this type is fixed in a defined position by way of a contact strip. The invention enables, for the first time, one or more cables to be directly brought into contact with the contact point(s) of a flexible strip conductor. This advantageously eliminates additional contact points and parts such as mating connectors, etc. whereby leading to a distinct improvement in quality and reduction in costs.

Abstract: An IC component has a cooling arrangement that is embodied as an electronic housing provided with a cooling body. The IC component is directly disposed on the cooling body in the electronic housing. The invention advantageously provides a cooling arrangement for IC components that enables the IC component to be efficiently and directly cooled and assembled in a simple manner, without requiring additional components. It is especially suitable for applications in electronic housings in the automotive field.

Abstract: A housing system for electronic devices, especially for the automobile sector has a top part and a bottom part. A pressure compensation film is fixed to the bottom part of the housing as a top part of the housing. Advantageously, the housing system is flexible, can be individually and thus variably adjusted to the space required, and encompasses a sealing system that is integrated in a pressure compensation element. The housing is suitable particularly for applications in the automobile sector.
