Patent number: 10520106Abstract: A normally closed solenoid valve includes a valve sleeve, a pole core fixedly positioned in the sleeve, an axially displaceable armature, a spring, a closing element, a valve seat, and an elastic component. The spring acts between the pole core and the armature in order to push the closing element into the valve seat. The closing element interacts with the armature. A prestressing force of the spring causes a deformation of the elastic component, which is positioned between the armature and the pole core, such that an impact of the armature on the pole core is damped via a regression of the deformation of the elastic component.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2016Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Pascal Godbillon, Massimiliano Ambrosi, Michael Eisenlauer, Edgar Kurz, Norbert Alaze

Patent number: 9506467Abstract: An internal gear pump for a hydraulic vehicle brake system comprises a pump shaft, a pinion positioned on the pump shaft, an annulus configured to mesh with the pinion, a shaft bearing positioned on one side of the pinion, and an axial disk. The pinion is configured to conjointly rotate with the pump shaft. The pump shaft is rotatable mounted in the shaft bearing. The axial disk is positioned between the shaft bearing on one end side, and the pinion and the annulus on an opposite end side, and bears sealingly against the pinion and the annulus.

Patent number: 9506541Abstract: An eccentric bearing for an electrohydraulic piston-pump assembly of a vehicle brake system includes a shaft configured to be driven rotationally about its axis, a bearing ring eccentric relative to the shaft, and, in a gap between the bearing ring and shaft, rolling bodies with different diameters according to a differing width of the gap. When the shaft is rotationally driven, an eccentricity of the bearing ring circulates the shaft more slowly than the rotational speed of the shaft and drives a reciprocating movement of pump pistons which bear against the bearing ring. To ensure that the rolling bodies roll on and circulate the shaft, a radial elasticity loads the rolling bodies with prestress against the shaft and bearing ring. The prestress is caused by an undersize of the bearing ring or by an elastic ring on the shaft, on at least one rolling body or in the bearing ring.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2011Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Juergen Haecker, Norbert Alaze

Patent number: 9470227Abstract: An internal gear pump for a slip-controlled hydraulic vehicle braking system has a pinion, an internal gear and a separating piece which is arranged between the pinion and the internal gear. The internal gear pump also has an inner part and an outer part, and separates a suction chamber from a pressure chamber. The separating piece is configured to protrude counter to a rotational direction of the internal gear pump beyond a sealing point of the inner part on the outer part such that the inner part and the outer part bear in front of the sealing point against at least one tooth tip of a tooth of the pinion and of the internal gear of the internal gear pump. As a result, tilting of the inner part and of the outer part away from the pinion and from the internal gear about the sealing point is avoided.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2014Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Massimiliano Ambrosi, Michael Eisenlauer, Rene Schepp, Edgar Kurz, Norbert Alaze
