Patent number: 10859191Abstract: A coupling arrangement for a screw coupling for liquid conduits of a high-pressure cleaning apparatus is provided. The coupling arrangement includes a plug part which is pluggably connectable to a complementarily configured plug part of a second coupling arrangement of the screw coupling for establishing a liquid-tight and releasable connection therewith with a sealing ring interposed therebetween, and a connecting part having a thread that is screwably connectable to a complementarily configured thread of the second coupling arrangement. The thread can be of multiple-threaded configuration and the connecting part can include a clamping element which is aligned in an in-line relationship with the thread relative to the thread longitudinal axis and is releasably clampable against a complementarily configured clamping element of the second coupling arrangement by axially inserting one into the other.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2016Date of Patent: December 8, 2020Assignee: Alfred Kärcher SE & Co. KGInventors: Christian Langer, Benjamin Weiss, Ralph Seitter

Publication number: 20190331263Abstract: A coupling arrangement is provided for a screw coupling for liquid conduits of a high-pressure cleaning device. The coupling arrangement is connectable in a liquid-tight manner to a further coupling arrangement of the screw coupling, and includes a conduit piece having a channel for liquid under pressure, a multi-start thread for screwing the coupling arrangement to the further coupling arrangement, and a clamping device which is clampable to a clamping face of the further coupling arrangement. The clamping device includes a dimensionally stable clamping ring mount on which a clamping ring is held, wherein the clamping ring is deformable and adaptable to the shape of the clamping face by pressing onto the clamping face of the further clamping arrangement. In addition, a screw coupling with a coupling arrangement of that kind is provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 9, 2019Publication date: October 31, 2019Inventors: Christian Langer, Ralph Seitter

Publication number: 20170203310Abstract: A nozzle arrangement includes a nozzle inlet part having an inlet duct for liquid under pressure, and a nozzle outlet part which is displaceable relative to the nozzle inlet part between a first and second position and which has a high-pressure nozzle and a low-pressure nozzle each configured as a fan-jet nozzle. In the first position, only the high-pressure nozzle is connected to the inlet duct and in the second position the high-pressure and the low-pressure nozzles are connected to the inlet duct. The at least one low-pressure nozzle is arranged radially offset to the high-pressure nozzle, and the nozzle outlet part has a connecting nipple via which the high-pressure nozzle is in a flow connection with the inlet duct and which interrupts or allows a flow connection of the inlet duct with the low-pressure nozzle depending on whether the nozzle outlet part is in the first or second position.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2017Publication date: July 20, 2017Inventors: David Ruckwied, Christian Langer

Patent number: 8789230Abstract: A wheel washing apparatus is provided, including at least two washing brushes, each of which is capable of being driven in rotation about a brush axis, wherein the brush axes of the at least two washing brushes are different from one another. In order to provide a wheel washing apparatus which allows a better cleaning result to be achieved, it is proposed that the at least two washing brushes be capable of being driven in rotation about a common central axis which is different from the brush axes.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2013Date of Patent: July 29, 2014Assignee: Alfred Kärcher GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Christian Langer, André Speckmaier, Michael Heinze

Publication number: 20100196087Abstract: A method for producing a connection between a metal surface and a plastic surface, in which a collar-shaped bead and a lateral surface with a shoulder-shaped ledge for the placement of the plastic surface are formed at least one edge at the metal surface, before the placement of the plastic surface a strip-like seal is introduced onto the ledge. The plastic surface is placed on the ledge of the lateral surface in such a way that a lateral surface of the plastic surface is lined up with the lateral surface of the metal surface in a butt-joint-like manner, and a form-fitting, elastically supported connection is created by forming between at least one part of the lateral surface of the metal surface and one part of the lateral surface of the plastic surface, so that a substantially seamless and substantially smooth transition between the metal surface and plastic surface is formed at the connection site on the top side of the metal surface and the plastic surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 27, 2010Publication date: August 5, 2010Inventors: Christian LANGER, Sebastian Taeubert, Joerg Geipel
