  • Patent number: 8069739
    Abstract: A device having at least one housing and one bottom connected to the housing. In this context, the housing has a housing wall and the bottom at least one base. Further it is provided for the base to have a specifiable edge. The essence of the present arrangement now lies in the fact that the edge of the base has at least two regions, a first region being situated closer to the housing wall and a second region being further removed from the housing wall.

  • Patent number: 7743750
    Abstract: A combined liquid and vapor sensor assembly includes a body and a mounting portion for coupling the body to a fuel pump module flange that defines an interface between an interior and an exterior of a fuel tank. A liquid pressure sensor is housed in a recess in the body for sensing a liquid pressure of a fuel in the fuel tank, and a vapor pressure sensor is housed in the recess in the body for sensing a vapor pressure of a fuel vapor in the fuel tank. An electrical connector is coupled with the body for providing power to the liquid pressure sensor and the vapor pressure sensor.

  • Patent number: 7363819
    Abstract: A device for measuring pressure, in particular for measuring high pressure, is provided, having a pressure sensor situated in a sensor housing, the sensor housing having a first sensor housing part provided with a pressure connecting piece and a second sensor housing part provided with an electric terminal. To reduce the manufacturing cost, the second sensor housing part is attached to the first sensor housing part by a connecting part situated between the first sensor housing part and the second sensor housing part, it being possible for the connecting part to be manufactured as a simple punch bent part or thin-walled tubular part, for example.

  • Patent number: 7152483
    Abstract: A device for measuring pressure, e.g., for measuring high pressure, including a pressure transducer that is arranged in a housing and includes sensor elements and a sensor diaphragm on a first side, and on a second side opposite the first side is provided with a cutout that extends from the second side to the sensor diaphragm. The pressure transducer is formed as a semiconductor pressure transducer and, with an edge area of the second side surrounding the cutout, is directly soldered onto a support part, provided with a first pressure-channel section, with the aid of a solder layer in such a manner that the first pressure-channel section and the cutout are interconnected.

  • Patent number: 6871546
    Abstract: In a pressure sensor module according to the prior art, which is intended for detecting the pressure of a corrosive medium, the conventional sensor cell with a pressure sensor chip is modified in order to protect it from corrosion, which results in a large volume for a pressure-transmitting-fluid. This is disadvantageous for the calibration and for a high degree of measurement precision. In a pressure sensor module (1) according to the invention, a convention sensor cell (5) is used that has an adapter (21) connected to it, which has a very small volume for a pressure-transmitting medium.
