  • Patent number: 11490762
    Abstract: The present application relates to a cooking apparatus (1) comprising a cooking chamber (2), a basket (3) disposed within the cooking chamber (2) to receive food (4) to be cooked, a heating element (5) disposed above the food basket (3) for heating air flowing out from the food basket (3), an air circulation system (6, 12, 13) for circulating the heated air upwards within the food basket (3) and a filter element (7) disposed between the food basket (3) and the heating element (5). The filter element (7) is spaced from the heating element (5). The filter element (7) comprises an air-permeable meshed structure for retaining particles contained in the air flowing out from the food basket (3). The food basket (3) comprises an upper opening (11), and the filter element (7) extends entirely over the upper opening (11).

  • Publication number: 20190277380
    Abstract: The threaded nut of a ball screw drive is adapted for applications that constrain the axial length such as brake boosters. The threaded nut includes an outer sealing surface suitable for sealing the threaded nut within a housing to form a pressurized chamber. The ball channels are at least partially axially overlapping with the outer sealing surface. Some embodiments may also include a ring groove on the outer periphery for receiving a sealing ring. Some embodiments may further include an inner sealing surface axially adjacent to the ball channels.

  • Patent number: 8291786
    Abstract: A ball nut of a ball screw drive, in which the ball nut is mounted on a threaded spindle via balls. The ball nut has on its inner circumference a ball groove wound helically around an axis that extends over at least one winding, and a deflection body, with deflection ends, arranged on a circumferential face of the ball nut. The deflection ends engage into a recess of the ball nut, and adjoin an end and a start of the ball groove. The deflection body is supported on one side in radial directions and on the other side on a machine part. The deflection body is connected at its axial ends to bearings for mounting on the machine part. The bearings, which project circumferentially, engage into the recesses of the ball nut and are arranged with their bearing faces approximately flush with the outer circumferential face of the ball nut.
