Abstract: A valve arrangement is inserted between a master brake cylinder and a reservoir in a housing of an electrohydraulic motor vehicle brake system which can be activated both by a vehicle driver and independently of the vehicle driver. The valve arrangement can be acted on by a volume flow which can be conveyed by a linear actuator in the direction of a pedal travel simulator, the working chamber of the pedal travel simulator being connected to the master brake cylinder, wherein, for the purpose of simplified construction and actuation, the valve arrangement has a hydraulically actuable non-return valve and a fixed diaphragm arranged parallel to the non-return valve. The non-return valve is arranged together with the fixed diaphragm in a valve carrier which is fastened to a closure plug which closes the housing of the motor vehicle brake system.

Abstract: A solenoid valve has a valve plunger which is guided in a passage bore of a valve housing. The valve plunger with its valve closing element is held in a basic position by a restoring spring. The basic position opens up a valve passage in a valve seat. The valve plunger is arranged between an inlet and an outlet channel in the valve housing. A magnet armature provides actuation of the valve plunger. An inlet chamber is connected to the inlet channel between the passage bore and the valve seat. The valve plunger protrudes into the inlet chamber by way of a step section. As a result of being hydraulically impinged on by the pressure medium of the inlet channel an axial force is generated on the valve plunger that acts oppositely to the closing direction of the valve plunger.

Abstract: A filter subassembly, having a first screen comprising a fabric that has mesh elements, the mesh size of which determines how effectively particles are prevented from penetrating therethrough, wherein a second screen is provided at a distance from the first screen, and the two screens are arranged in series.

Abstract: An electromagnetic valve, having a valve closing element which is arranged in a valve housing and which is capable of opening or closing a valve passage in a valve seat, having a magnet armature provided for actuating the valve closing element, and having a substantially cylindrical restoring spring which is braced between the magnet armature and a magnet core. In a parallel arrangement with respect to the restoring spring, a spring ring is arranged between the magnet armature and the magnet core, which spring ring has a smaller number of spring windings in relation to the number of spring windings of the restoring spring.

Abstract: The invention relates to a suction jet pump (8), consisting of a driving jet nozzle (10), a mixing tube (11), an intake opening (12), a working-fluid line (7) connected to the driving jet nozzle (10), and a valve (9) which is arranged with the working-fluid line (7) and whose housing (13) has an inlet (14) and an outlet (15). A throughflow opening (17) with a valve body (18) on both sides of the throughflow opening (17) is arranged in the housing (13) in such a way that the throughflow opening (17) can be closed on both the inlet side and the outlet side, and that at least one spring (25, 27, 28) is arranged inside the housing (13) in such a way that it holds the valve body (18) in a position closing the throughflow opening (17) on the outlet side until the system pressure is reached.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for ducting electrical lines through the wall of a fuel tank (1), whereby a steel support (3) is materially connected to the wall of the fuel tank (1). Contacts (4) are introduced through the support (3). The contacts (4) have a sleeving (5) made from glass or ceramic. A leakage of fuel vapors from the fuel tank (1) is thus almost completely excluded.

Abstract: A device for connecting two tubular pipe sections. A sealing device is arranged between the pipe sections. At their ends, the pipe sections in each case have a flange-type end piece. The pipe sections are held together by a spring device using a pre-tensioning force, the spring device having a mid-section extending at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the pipe sections. The spring device has a spring element, from whose transverse sides of the mid-section, which extend at right angles to the longitudinal axes of the pipe sections, spring limbs extend. Forming an at least approximate U-shape with the mid-section, the spring limbs extend at least partially over the periphery of the pipe sections, the spring limps each having a centrical cut-out that is adapted to the outside diameter of the pipe sections and in which a pipe section is accommodated in each case in the mounted state of the spring element.

Abstract: In an arrangement for supporting an exhaust system on a motor vehicle, a mounting element is connected to a motor vehicle part, a support element is pivotally connected to the mounting element, and an intermediate retaining means, which is connected to the exhaust system, is pivotally supported by the support element, the pivot axes of the support element and the mounting element and of the intermediate retaining means are parallel and disposed in spaced relationship and so oriented that the support element is pivotable in the longitudinal direction of the exhaust system so as to permit expansion of the exhaust system.

Abstract: A device for connecting two tubular piping parts, in particular piping parts in a motor vehicle exhaust system, has two connector pieces with a sealing device being mounted between the connector pieces. The connector pieces are stressed against each other in axial direction by a spring device. The spring device has a wire spring which surrounds one connector piece at least partially with two spring branches and is supported by this connector piece. The wire spring is stressed against a stop on the other connector with the spring branches or another area of the wire spring.

Abstract: In an arrangement for interconnecting two exhaust pipe sections of a motor vehicle exhaust system with a vibration dampening structure disposed between the two pipe sections, a first one of the pipe sections has a coupling member radially extending therefrom and the second pipe section has a coupling structure connected to the coupling member in a circumferentially elastic fashion so as to permit limited relative rotation between the two pipe sections.

Abstract: In an arrangement for joining tubular duct sections, especially the end sections of pipes of a motor vehicle exhaust system, wherein the end sections are received in one another such that one end section extends around the other in spaced relationship with a seal structure disposed therebetween, the one end section has slots and a spring structure is inserted through the slots into the space between the pipe end sections and has spring legs disposed in the space between the pipe end sections in engagement with the pipe end sections for holding them in firm axial engagement with each other and with the seal structure disposed between the pipe end sections.

The axial corrugation are distributed in spaced relationship over the circumference of the tube. The corrugated tube is resilient in a radial direction and is provided, at both ends, with connection stubs for direct connection to exhaust system pipes.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine has an induction conduit for the induction of fresh air. A section of the induction conduit extends over the cylinder head cover. In order to achieve the simplest and most operationally reliable engine space ventilation possible, the induction conduit section is provided with at least one connection stub pipe which protrudes through an opening provided in the cylinder head cover into a camshaft space. The camshaft space is connected to the induction conduit in an advantageously simple manner.
