  • Patent number: 12529380
    Abstract: An electric coolant pump for providing an automotive cooling circuit with a coolant includes an electric motor to drive the electric coolant pump, a pump housing, a separating can, a printed circuit board, and permanently height-adjusted supporting elements. The separating can includes a substantially plane separating can bottom wall which lies in a cross plane, and a substantially cylindrical separating can shell which fluidically separates a wet zone from a dry zone. The printed circuit board is arranged substantially parallel to and not in direct contact with the separating can bottom wall so that an axial gap exists which is filled with a heat conductive means. The supporting elements axially support the plane printed circuit board. Each supporting element has a distal tip which is trimmed to define a height-constant axial gap having a nominal gap height between the printed circuit board and the separating can bottom wall.

  • Publication number: 20250320936
    Abstract: A pipe connector includes a sleeve which can be arranged concentrically to pipe sections with a first diameter and has a first sleeve section and a second sleeve section which can be welded to the first sleeve section to form the sleeve with the sleeve having a second diameter which is larger than that of the pipe sections of a pipe system and a method for connecting pipe ends in a pipe system using the pipe connector.

  • Publication number: 20250109749
    Abstract: An automotive electronic flow pump includes a rotating pump wheel, a pump housing, an axial-flux motor, a static separation wall, and a motor electronics. The pump wheel has an axial fluid inlet at a wheel upstream front side and a radial fluid outlet. The pump housing defines a pumping chamber and an electronics chamber. The axial-flux motor directly drives the pump wheel and is arranged within the pumping chamber. The axial-flux motor includes a motor stator having at least one stator coil, and a motor rotor arranged at a front side of the pump wheel which co-rotates with the pump wheel. The static separation wall is arranged at a backside of the pump wheel. The static separation wall fluidically separates the pumping chamber from the electronics chamber. The motor electronics is arranged in the electronics chamber and is directly electrically connected to the at least one stator coil.

  • Publication number: 20060151231
    Abstract: A motor vehicle contains a device (1) for controlling the shifting movement of a closure element by means of a shifting drive (5) fixed on the closure element. A transmission element (11) is mounted on a support console (7), which is connected fixedly to the closure element, which transmission element is movable relative to the support console (7), is mounted movably by a bearing region (13, 15) on a body region and is coupled by a coupling region (18), which faces away from the bearing region (13, 15), to the shifting drive (5) in order to transmit mechanical forces.

  • Publication number: 20060123708
    Abstract: In an angular joint of a window frame of a motor vehicle door, the window frame is formed, at least in one region, from at least one continuously cast aluminum profile. The at least one continuously cast aluminum profile is joined to an angular profile, and it is intended to configure the angular joint simply, in an esthetically pleasing manner, and without disturbing seams. In such an angular joint, the at least one profile to be joined is the support for external paneling, and the external paneling extends in the longitudinal direction of the at least one profile at least into the far corner of the angular profile. The paneling, the profile and the support extending therefrom can be configured as a one-piece, integral part.
