  • Patent number: 9745938
    Abstract: An injector system which is in particular used as an injector block for fuel injection systems of mixture-compressing, spark-ignited internal combustion engines includes a fuel distribution rail, a counter bracket, a first injector, and at least one second injector. Here, the counter bracket has a first connecting piece and a second connecting piece. The first injector is joined to the counter bracket on an input side of the first connecting piece with the aid of an elastic sealing ring. The second injector is joined to the counter bracket on an input side of the second connecting piece with the aid of an elastic sealing ring. In this case, the counter bracket is connected to the fuel distribution rail. The fuel distribution rail is used for distributing compressed natural gas to the injectors. The injector system has a compact design.

  • Patent number: 6860008
    Abstract: A method for producing fuel rails, which contain a hollow chamber that communicates with a fuel source via a connection. The fuel rail supplies fuel to a number of injection valves. At least one preassembled unit of an injection valve is integrated into the fuel rail by means of a materially adhesive connection during the production of the fuel rail and an electrical contacting of the individual injection valves is produced at the same time.

  • Publication number: 20040000292
    Abstract: An intake tract for an internal combustion engine, including a number of divided intake line sections corresponding to the number of cylinders in the internal combustion engine. These intake line sections are mountable on the internal combustion engine in the intake area. A fuel distributor and at least one injector supply fuel to the combustion chambers of the internal combustion engine. At least one injector unit, the mounting locations thereof as well as fuel supply components and their contacting elements are integrated into a cover element to be joined to a lower-shell-shaped intake manifold section.

  • Patent number: 4249098
    Abstract: A rotor component of an asynchronous electrical motor of the squirrel-cage type comprises a cylindrical array of circumferentially spaced short-circuited conductor bars having the opposite end portions thereof seated in corresponding circular grooves provided in the surfaces of annular conductive end rings. The ends of the conductor bars are soldered to adjoining surface portions of the grooves by placing solder in the gaps between the bar ends and groove surfaces and directly heating only the end rings so as to bring them up to the working temperature for effecting the soldering operation. The end rings are heated up circumferentially in a section-by-section manner so that soldering of the conductor bar ends to the end rings also takes place in a section-by-section manner.

  • Patent number: 4021920
    Abstract: Cooling means for bone or tooth cutting tool. In order to cool the cutting surfaces of a bone or tooth cutting tool, there is provided in the supporting shank of the cutting tool a first chamber containing the driving means for the tool and a second chamber within or communicating with the cutting tool itself, said two chambers being separated by a perforable diaphragm seal. Conduit means for introducing cooling media into the interior of said tool is received into a suitable recess in the upper portion of the tool housing, extends through said first chamber and is provided with a pointed tip for piercing said diaphragm seal for extending into said second chamber. Cooling media is then introduced into the interior of said tool and exits therefrom for cooling both the tool itself and the material being cut.
