Abstract: An eccentric screw pump comprising an outer part (2) and an inner part (3) therein, one of the parts (2, 3) being driven rotatably and the other part (2, 3) being able to move eccentrically relative to the other part (3, 2). The screwthreads (5a, 5b) of the outer part (2) extend angularly over less than an entire helix along the axial length (L) of the part, so that during operation pumping chambers that are open to both ends are created, through which sudden pressure relief takes place.

Abstract: A grinder pump has a housing having a bottom wall formed with an intake port, a drive shaft rotatable in the housing about an axis and projecting axially through the bottom wall, and a pump in the housing having a rotor connected to the shaft and operable to draw liquids and comminuted solids in through the port. A cutter head outside the housing at the bottom wall carries a blade juxtaposed with the bottom wall. The cutter head is fixed on and rotatable with the shaft for comminuting solids drawn into the intake port. An annular shield wall projects axially from the bottom wall around the cutter head and is formed with at least one axially projecting bump forming a valley constituting an intake opening through which liquid and solids can be drawn to the intake port by the pump.

Abstract: A coil-holding assembly for an electrical machine has coil holders made of plastic and on which coils of a stator can be wound. The coil holders are formed and pivotal on an outer edge of a planar central plastic support by integral film hinges between a winding position parallel to a plane of the support and a bent-up position perpendicular to the plane. Thus the coils can be wound on the holders in the parallel position thereof and the holders are then moved into the bent-up position for use in the electric machine.

Abstract: The invention relates to a coil former apparatus (2) for an electrical machine, in particular for an electric motor having coil formers (3) composed of plastic, on which stator coils can be wound, with the coil formers (3) being articulated, in particular integrally formed, via hinges, in particular film hinges (4), on the outer edge of a central plastic mounting element (1).

Abstract: The invention relates to a liquid-cooled electric motor (1) comprising an internal coolant circuit (7) driven by a motor-driven rotary coolant pump (8). Said coolant pump (8) is partially or entirely arranged inside the housing (6) of the electric motor, (1) with a shaft (8a) which is separate from the shaft (2) of the electric motor.
