  • Patent number: 8034275
    Abstract: To provide an assembly which is as small as possible which contains a well-protected component and effectively dissipates heat, and to provide a device and a method for use in the rapid manufacture of such an assembly, an assembly includes a component and a housing from which the component is partially separated by narrow casting gaps filled with a casting compound containing a relatively large amount of filler. For the manufacture of such an assembly, a device is used for filling with casting compound and which includes a mounting for securing the assembly in a position which permits air to escape from the casting gaps, which have an external connection during filling. Also there are supply containers and supply lines for the casting compound which open into the casting gaps, and an apparatus for generating pressure. A method which is used to fill narrow casting gaps with casting compound by using such a device.

  • Patent number: 5254807
    Abstract: An RPM sensor for anti-lock and/or traction control systems of motor vehicles or for engine speed governing or gasoline or Diesel injection control. The RPM sensor has a housing, receiving electrical components, with a first housing part of plastic that is at least partly enveloped by a second housing part, produced in an injection molding process, likewise from plastic. To attain a moisture-proof, material bond between the two housing parts, a melting element of a plastic having a lower melting point than that of the plastic of the housing parts is disposed in a contact zone between the two housing parts. When the second housing part is formed, the melting element is heated above its melting point, and a material bond of the two housing parts is attained which protects the RPM sensor against moisture dirt, stress, etc.
