The plug protrudes at least partially through the housing shell, and the plug is at least partially covered with a first material which swells upon contact with the fluid.

Abstract: An electrical brake actuator for a motor vehicle, comprising an actuator housing, which is formed from a first housing half-shell and a second housing half-shell, and comprising an electric motor and a multi-stage transmission, which comprises a first transmission stage driven by the electric motor and a final transmission stage having an output gear. The electric motor comprises a motor housing and a commutator as well as a brush system which comprises a pot-like brush carrier having base-side shaft feedthrough for a motor shaft which has a first pinion fixed to the shaft. A transmission plate is integrally formed on the brush carrier, in particular monolithically, to form a carrier unit, which comprises at least one first bearing seat for receiving a first bearing axis of a first gearwheel of the first transmission stage, said gearwheel meshing with the first pinion fixed to the shaft.

Abstract: An oil pump, in particular an electric or electromotive auxiliary pump for a motor vehicle, having a housing having an inlet on the admission side and an outlet on the pressure side, in addition to a pump rotor which is inserted in the housing such that it can rotate about an axis, and having at least one rotor part, a flexible housing component which is in the form of an elastic press plate and which extends over the cross-sectional surface of the pump rotor. The flexible pressure plate is maintained, in an advantageous manner, in the edge area of the second housing parts.
