  • Patent number: 11305643
    Abstract: A fuel delivery unit for use within a vehicle fuel tank includes: a surge tank arranged on a wall of the fuel tank, a feed line extending from a region of the surge tank to a connector stub on the flange, and a wiring harness extending from the fuel pump to the flange. A flange-side holder forms a first force application point for fixing the wiring harness on a flange side, and a surge tank-side holder forms a second force application point for fixing the wiring harness on the surge tank side. The wiring harness, the flange-side holder and the surge tank-side holder together form a force absorber configured to protect the feed line and the connector stub during a vehicle impact by absorbing kinetic energy from the impact acting on the fuel delivery unit, thereby dissipating the kinetic energy.

  • Patent number: 8124897
    Abstract: The invention relates to an input unit for electrotechnical devices, the unit being configured such that it is technically particularly effective, yet still cost-effective. Further, it is the aim to also provide illumination elements at little expense. For touching by finger, such an input unit comprises a cover suitable for capacitive field transmissions, the cover having a contact region that can be used for touching more than a single location. A sensor film is disposed directly beneath the cover, wherein the film has a resistance structure on the side facing the cover, the structure being electrically contacted via three contact points.

  • Publication number: 20060210061
    Abstract: A wideband telephone handset is provided with an acoustic converter The acoustic converter is preferably a wideband acoustic converter and the membrane rear volume of the acoustic converter in the rear wall of the housing, thereof comprises openings which open towards the outside of the acoustic converter and from which noise can escape. The rear housing part of the telephone handset includes inner walls forming a type of channel through which the space up to the housing of the telephone handset is sealed in a soundproof manner around the openings of the rear wall of the housing of the acoustic converter. The rear housing part of the telephone handset has openings through which the noise escaping from the rear of the acoustic converter and conducted via the walls of the rear housing part of the telephone handset can be emitted from the telephone handset.
