  • Patent number: 10294905
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a device for pressure control, including a rod and a plunger. The rod has a first end region delimiting a pressurized space and is movable along an axis between a top dead center and a bottom dead center. The plunger has a traverse substantially perpendicular to a plunger axis transmitting kinetic energy from a plunger drive to the rod in a contact region between a traverse surface and a second end region of the rod arranged opposite the first end region. The rod includes a calotte-shaped end region in the contact region of the rod and the traverse includes a calotte-shaped recess in the contact region of the traverse.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9719472
    Abstract: A valve arrangement for a high pressure pump includes a pump housing with a depression, and a valve housing configured to be inserted in the depression, and a clamping disc. The valve housing has at least one radial projection with a first axial boundary surface and a second axial boundary surface arranged opposite the first axial boundary surface, wherein the clamping disc extends radially over the radial projection of the valve housing and has a third axial boundary surface that corresponds with the second axial boundary surface of the valve housing. On the circumferential side, the clamping disc has a thread that can be screwed into a thread on the inner side of the depression to brace the valve housing onto the first boundary surface.

  • Patent number: 4370028
    Abstract: An orientation layer for liquid crystal display devices is formed from an organic tin compound of the type:R.sub.n SnX.sub.4-nwherein R is an organic radical; X is a reactive residual radical and n is an integer ranging from 1 to 3, by applying such organic tin compound onto a free surface of a carrier plate of a liquid crystal display device and generating the desired layer. In a preferred embodiment, the organic radical is an alkyl and the reactive residual radical is chlorine. In a preferred embodiment, the orientation layer is applied via an immersion technique wherein a select organic tin compound is dissolved in a suitable organic solvent, applied to a carrier plate surface and thereafter dried at somewhat elevated temperatures.
