Patent number: 10662940Abstract: A high-pressure fuel pump includes a housing, at least one piston, and a sealing device. The device is positioned on the piston so as to surround the piston, and includes a seal carrier. The carrier is connected, at least in sections, to the housing, and includes at least one radially peripheral portion that is materially bonded to the housing via a capacitor discharge weld connection. Such a pump enables improved cycle times and reduced error rates during production.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2016Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Christoph Lehmeier, Torsten Schoene, Stefan Brueckl, Soeren Stritzel, Heiko Jahn, Stefan Kaufmann, Achim Laub, Manuel Wacker

Patent number: 9726159Abstract: An arrangement for throttling a fluid flow includes a throttle element arranged so as to influence a flow cross section in a fluid duct. The throttle element has a resiliently elastic disc-shaped basic body which is arranged with a top side and a bottom side between at least two supports in the fluid duct. The body is arranged in such a way that the flow cross section can be variably adjusted as a function of a pressure difference between the top side and the bottom side of the resiliently elastic disc-shaped basic body. At least one support bears against the top side of the resiliently elastic disc-shaped basic body, and at least one support bears against the bottom side of the resiliently elastic disc-shaped basic body.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2011Date of Patent: August 8, 2017Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Reiner Fellmeth, Juergen Haecker, Oliver Gaertner, Heiko Jahn, Marc Zimmermann, Wolfgang Schuller, Harald Hermann, Rolf Stotz, Daniel Gosse
