  • Patent number: 10815863
    Abstract: A liquid pump for conveying a liquid may include a housing, in which a pump impeller is arranged for conveying the liquid, and a cover for covering the housing. The cover may include a main connector for supplying a main flow of the liquid to the pump impeller and an auxiliary connector for supplying an auxiliary flow of the liquid to the pump impeller. The housing may have an inlet opening for the liquid and an annular collar protruding from an edge of the inlet opening. The cover may lie axially against the annular collar. The annular collar and the cover may define an annular wall surrounding a flow path of the main flow of the liquid. The annular wall may have at least one radial opening connecting the flow path with an inflow space surrounding the annular wall. The auxiliary connector may be fluidically connected with the inflow space.

  • Publication number: 20160075001
    Abstract: The mounting wrench (2) is used to engage or disengage a tool head (24) of a modular tool. The mounting wrench (2) incorporates a base body (4), which extends from an upper surface (20) along a centered longitudinal axis (18) to an underside (22). In addition, it has a slotted part (6), extending in the direction of the centered longitudinal axis (18), with a slot (10), into which the tool head (24) can be inserted. The slotted part (6) has two opposing keys (14), extending radially inward, which are each designed to mesh into a keyway (30) of the tool head (24). The keys (14) have a rounded end face (32), oriented radially inward, and are sloped relative to the centered longitudinal axis (18) so that the distance (a) between the keys (14) increases in the direction of the centered longitudinal axis (18).
