  • Patent number: 10808843
    Abstract: A metallic flat gasket having a through-opening which is covered by a sieve element is described. The gasket serves for sealing a line transition between two components and for capturing particles in the fluid flowing through the line. At leat one metallic layer of the flat gasket has at least two continuations, which extend from the edge of a through-opening into the region of the through-opening, the at least two continuations being curved such that at least two of the continuations merge into each other in one plane or are connected together.

  • Patent number: 10767758
    Abstract: Transmission control devices may have two control boxes, and a planar transmission control plate disposed between the two control boxes. The transmission control plate seals the intermediate space between the two control boxes or the channel portions and borings thereof in the form of a flat gasket. The plate also makes available throughflow-openings between channels or borings in the control boxes for a fluid, the fluid in the channels controlling the function of a transmission. The sealing function is achieved by embossed beads and/or partial coatings.

  • Patent number: 10627002
    Abstract: A transmission control device has two mutually oppositely arranged counter-components, for example control boxes, and a planar transmission control plate, which is arranged between the two counter-components. The transmission control plate seals the clearance between the two counter-components or their channel portions and bores in the form of a flat seal. The plate also provides through-openings between channels or bores, respectively, in the opposing counter-components, where the fluid in the channels controls the function of a transmission. The sealing function is realized by stamped beads and/or partial coatings. Transmission control plates therefore have fluid through-flow openings so the fluid can flow through from one side of the plate to the other side of the plate.

  • Patent number: 9746078
    Abstract: The invention relates to a flat seal such as those that are used in motor vehicle construction in particular. Such flat seals can be used for example as seals in the exhaust tract of internal combustion engines, as cylinder head gaskets, or also as hydraulic system control plates. Hydraulic system control plates, such as transmission control plates for example, always have a sealing function in addition to a fluid control function simultaneously.

  • Patent number: 9518659
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a flat gasket with filter elements. In order to fulfill the increased requirements with respect to cleanliness, there is an increased demand for the integration of filter elements in flat gaskets. The corresponding filter elements mainly serve for picking of impurities accrued during production as well as other residues circulate via the operational fluids, especially during the initial period of operation of an internal combustion engine or a vehicle.

  • Patent number: 8757634
    Abstract: The invention relates to a metallic flat gasket with at least one metallic gasket layer, which is mainly flat and shows a first and second surface, wherein a plane of the gasket runs centered between said flat areas, wherein a camber is formed within the gasket layer, which protrudes over the first surface of the gasket layer and which has a larger length than width, wherein the camber possesses a first level given by a virtual level, which runs in parallel to the plane of the gasket through the foot of the camber on the first surface of the gasket layer and a second level, given by a further virtual, which runs through the highest point of the camber and also parallel to the plane of the gasket of the gasket layer, wherein the camber possesses a slope area that ascends between the two levels. The slope area is provided with an undulating structure such that it comprises at least two waves each with a wave crest and a wave trough.

  • Patent number: 8316516
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a mounting device having a metallic base plate, from which multiple projections project, and a method for manufacturing this mounting device. The mounting device may be obtained by cutting multiple hook preforms into the surface of the base plate while leaving at least one bending edge per hook preform. Furthermore, hook-like projections are manufactured by bending the hook preforms out of the base plate around the bending edge and possibly lateral protrusions are manufactured on the projections or these are twisted.
