  • Patent number: 10797458
    Abstract: A method is provided for producing a plug, having a plastic injection-molded encapsulation, for a fuel pump which arranged in a fuel tank of a motor vehicle. The plug has cables, stranded wires and a ground contact each protruding out of the encapsulation and each connected to encapsulated components. The plug elements and coils are inserted into a base plate. One core of a cable is soldered, welded or crimped to flat plug elements. The coils and stranded wires are each soldered, welded or crimped to a flat plug element. The base plate is inserted into a cavity of an injection mold, such that the cables and the stranded wires protrude out of the cavity through first passage openings and second passage openings, respectively, and cores are arranged in continuous openings of identical cross section in the wall of the injection mold. The cavity is then filled with a plastic.

  • Patent number: 10330108
    Abstract: A fuel delivery pump for delivering fuel, having an electric motor and having a pump impeller that is driven by means of the electric motor, wherein the pump impeller is connected by means of a shaft to a rotor of the electric motor such that a rotational movement of the rotor is transmitted via the shaft to the pump impeller, wherein the shaft is mounted by means of an axial bearing in an axial direction and/or by means of a radial bearing in a radial direction relative to a pump stage in which the pump impeller is arranged, wherein an electrical insulation element is arranged between the axial bearing and the pump stage, and/or an electrical insulation element is arranged between the radial bearing and the pump stage.
