  • Patent number: 11536594
    Abstract: A sensor component for a transmission of a motor vehicle is provided. The sensor component includes a printed circuit board having a first printed circuit board region and a second printed circuit board region. The first printed circuit board region is delimited from the second printed circuit board region by a milled groove and is angled with respect to the second printed circuit board region along the milled groove. A sensor, such as a magnetoresistive sensor or a Hall sensor, is arranged in or on the first printed circuit board region. A pre-assembly arrangement and a method for producing such a sensor component are also provided.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9991691
    Abstract: A component has at least one opening through which an electric and/or electronic contact element is guided outwards in a sealed manner against the penetration of environmental media. A closed volume is formed at least in a wall of the component in the region of the contact element, and a permanently elastic sealing material which completely surrounds the at least one contact element in at least some sections is filled into said volume.

  • Patent number: 8628140
    Abstract: The invention relates to a front end of a motor vehicle, consisting of at least one main body and at least a first thermoplastic part and a second thermoplastic part, which are securely connected by injection molding firstly to the main body and simultaneously the various plastics parts are securely connected to one another, wherein the two plastics parts consist of different plastics materials and these are injection molded according to the bi-injection process and fuse with one another when they encounter one another.

  • Publication number: 20110215495
    Abstract: The invention relates to an injection-molding process for producing a plastic molded part in a cavity of a tool. The process includes simultaneously injecting different melt streams composed of different component materials into the cavity, and controlling the injecting operation to obtain a form-fitting and/or material-bonding connection between the different component materials. The process further includes acquiring measurement data concerning the two melt streams at the site of development of the form-fitting and/or material-bonding connection and adapting the control to optimize the injecting operation on the basis of the measurements data acquired.
