  • Publication number: 20250180026
    Abstract: A valve/pump unit is proposed, having an electric motor for driving at least one pump stage, at least one first pump stage drivable by the electric motor for conveying a heat transport medium in a first heat transport medium circuit, an adjustable multiway valve with heat transport medium channels for providing at least two switching positions between the first heat transport medium circuit and a second heat transport medium circuit of a heat transport medium system, and a common housing section for accommodating the electric motor, the multiway valve and the pump stage. The multiway valve is joined to the electric motor in such a way that the multiway valve encloses the electric motor.

  • Patent number: 12128854
    Abstract: A cleaning device for a vehicle, with which at least one cleaning location is cleaned with pressurized cleaning liquid and/or pressurized ambient air, is proposed, including: a pump-compressor stage for sucking up and conveying the cleaning liquid and/or the ambient air, a fluid path which fluidically connects the pump-compressor stage upstream to a cleaning liquid tank and to an environment of the cleaning device, and a fluid distribution apparatus downstream of the pump-compressor stage, which is fed with the cleaning liquid and/or the ambient air by the pump-compressor stage, the fluid distribution apparatus being fluidically connected to the cleaning location. A vehicle with such a cleaning device, the first and the second use, and a cleaning method for a vehicle are also proposed.

  • Publication number: 20240318719
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a blocking mechanism, such as of a vehicle. A form-fitting element positioned between a blocking actuator and a blockable shaft of a drivetrain. The form fitting element can be actuated in an axial stroke movement and longitudinally in relation to the shaft, and, in a state in which the form-fitting element bears against an end face of a shaft-mounted complement to which the form-fitting element can be partially form-fittingly coupled and be biased longitudinally in relation to the shaft and in defined fashion against the shaft-mounted complement by way of at least one elastic force transmission portion so as to be able to enter a latching engagement.

  • Patent number: 12049780
    Abstract: An actuator for a side door of a motor vehicle is described, which brings about automatic opening or closing of the side door depending on a signal and has a device for holding the side door in any open position. The holding device is realized by a function of the electric motor itself, according to which function the control device initiates a short-circuit function of the motor phases when the motor is activated, which causes a high current flow and thus a high torque for holding the side door open. By short-circuiting the motor phases, no additional components are required, since this is a special activation function of the motor.

  • Publication number: 20220282546
    Abstract: An actuator for a side door of a motor vehicle is described. The actuator brings about automatic opening or closing of the side door depending on a signal. The actuator has an electric motor which, depending on an activation, generates a torque which acts on a hinge of the side door via a transmission. Furthermore, it has a device for holding the side door in any open position, which holding device is realized by a function of the electric motor itself which is designed in such a way that, in the currentless state, it has an increased cogging torque which is configured to a value required as a holding torque for holding the door open. In this way, the actuator is distinguished by a simple and inexpensive design.

  • Publication number: 20200153296
    Abstract: A rotor unit for an electric machine may include at least one rotor carrier and a plurality of substantially identical rotor segments. Each of the plurality of rotor segments may include at least one recess through which the rotor carrier is passable. A plurality of axial slot portions may be disposed spaced apart from one another in a circumferential direction along a circumferential contour of the at least one recess. The rotor carrier may include a guide portion that engages in a slot portion of each rotor segment providing a non-rotatable connection therebetween. Via selection of the slot portion of the rotor segment in which the guide portion engages, discrete angular positions of the rotor segment about an axial axis of the rotor carrier may be selectable. The plurality of rotor segments may be arranged in different angular positions about the axial axis of the rotor carrier.
