  • Patent number: 11560955
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electromagnetic valve device having an armature (18) which is moveable in an axial direction in a valve housing (10) in response to energizing of a stationary coil (12), and which is designed to interact with a first valve seat (22) associated with a fluid inlet connection (26) of the valve housing, a first fluid flow path (36) being formed in the valve housing such that fluid flowing through the opened first valve seat can flow in order to actuate a plunger (32) moveable relative to the armature (18) and to which a preloading force is applied, the actuation causing a second valve seat (43) interacting with the plunger (32) to be opened to produce a fluid connection to a fluid working connection (42) of the valve housing, and the valve housing having a fastening structure (44, 46) in the form of at least one hole extending at an angle to the axial direction, the fluid inlet connection (26) and the working connection (42) being formed on the same axial side of the valve housing in r

  • Patent number: 10767769
    Abstract: An electromagnetic valve device having an armature (18) designed such that it can move in an axial direction in a valve housing (10) in response to energising of a stationary coil (12) provided in the valve housing, and which interact with a first valve seat (22) associated with a fluid inlet connection (26) of the valve housing, wherein a first fluid flow path (36) is formed in the valve housing such that fluid flowing through the opened first valve seat can flow in order to actuate a plunger (32) provided axially or axially parallel to the armature (18) and moveable relative to same and to which a preloading force is applied, and the actuation causes a second valve seat (43) interacting with the plunger (32) to be opened to produce a fluid connection to a fluid working connection (42) of the valve housing, and wherein the valve housing has fastening structure (44, 46) in the form of at least one hole extending at an angle, to the axial direction, wherein the fluid inlet connection (26) and the working conne

  • Patent number: 6321913
    Abstract: A conveyor belt (1) leading to a sorting device (2) comprises two superimposed functional sections (3, 12), which are connected to each other via deflected intermediate sections. As a result, the structural length of the conveyor belt (1) is reduced.
