  • Patent number: 12523323
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sealing grommet arrangement comprising a sealing grommet (1) which is designed as a corrugated tube having a constant outer diameter over its length, one end of which grommet projects through an opening (12) in a housing wall (10), and on which grommet a retaining ring (6) for retaining the sealing grommet (1) on the housing wall (10) is positioned. The retaining ring projects, by means of the inner contour of its through-opening (7), radially inwards into a corrugation trough (2) of the sealing grommet (1), and can be connected to the housing wall (10) so as to close the opening (12) in the housing wall (10).

  • Patent number: 12025202
    Abstract: A spindle drive for a motorized adjustment of an adjustment element of a motor vehicle includes a tubular or half-shell-like spindle drive housing. An annular or disk-like connection portion is inserted and secured in one end region of the spindle drive housing. The annular or disk-like connection portion is connected via a damping element comprising a resilient damping material to a connection for discharging axial drive movements. The connection portion has a coaxial recess with an inner radially peripheral wall having a radially peripheral groove. The connection with the end region thereof facing the spindle drive housing protrudes axially into the recess of the connection portion and has a radially peripheral flange which protrudes radially into the groove. The damping element is arranged in a gap disposed between the side walls of the groove and the side walls of the flange.

  • Patent number: 10295012
    Abstract: A spindle drive for motor-actuated adjustment of an adjusting element includes a tubular spindle drive housing for a drive unit with a downstream spindle-spindle nut gear unit for generating a linear driving motion. A connection part inserted into one end of the drive housing is connected to an exterior socket via a damping arrangement comprising an elastic damping material. The connection part includes first and second flange-like end portions having confrontingly opposed, spaced apart front sides sandwiching the damping arrangement 4 which is connected to the end portion front sides by vulcanization and/or gluing. The socket is carried on the second end portion remote from the damping arrangement 4.
