  • Patent number: 10613013
    Abstract: Various embodiments may include a sensor for a motor vehicle including an anode conductor, an anode sleeve connected to the anode conductor, an adapter sleeve, a housing, a connection between the housing and the adapter sleeve, and a cathode sleeve connected to the housing. The anode conductor is rigidly connected to the adapter sleeve by an electrical insulator. The anode sleeve and the cathode sleeve are arranged coaxially with respect to one another within the scope of the production tolerances.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10189975
    Abstract: A cable fill composition for an optical fiber cable, said cable fill composition comprising (i) a Fischer-Tropsch derived base oil; and (ii) a thickening system, wherein the thickening system comprises at least one block copolymer. The cable fill composition of the present invention provides improvements in rheological characteristics, low temperature properties, and colour stability properties, as well as minimizing the levels of additives such as antioxidants and pour point depressants which need to be used.

  • Publication number: 20120055568
    Abstract: The invention relates to an extractor device for an aqueous fluid from a storage container of a motor vehicle wherein a lengthwise-extended heating element is arranged next to a venting tube. The venting tube connects a catch container to a chamber arranged above the fluid level in the storage container. In case of icing, a connection is created early from the catch container to the chamber. A pump can thus convey the fluid out of the catch container early.

  • Publication number: 20030221976
    Abstract: A device for determining the ozone conversion rate of an ozone conversion element which is coated with a catalyst material, in particular of a radiator in a motor vehicle. The device having a first air-guidance passage and a second air-guidance passage for receiving air upstream and downstream of the ozone conversion element, the air-guidance passages being connected via a switching device to a third air-guidance passage, in which an ozone sensor element is arranged. By means of the switching device, either the airstream upstream of the ozone conversion element or the airstream downstream of the ozone conversion element can be passed to the ozone sensor element.
