  • Patent number: 10989139
    Abstract: A crankcase for a reciprocating piston engine, in particular of a motor vehicle, includes at least first one wall region that has a greater wall thickness than at least one second wall region of the crankcase that adjoins the first wall region. The crankcase is produced from an aluminum alloy and by at least mainly laminar die casting and is heat-treated completely or heat-treated completely and additionally locally or heat-treated only locally.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 16, 2016
    Date of Patent: April 27, 2021
    Assignee: Daimler AG

  • Patent number: 9988701
    Abstract: A method for coating a substrate, in which a wire-shaped spray material is melted in an electric arc and is deposited as a functional layer on the substrate. The invention also relates to a functional layer which can be produced on the substrate by this method. The functional layer has a high hardness value and good corrosion resistance on exposure to diesel fuel with a high sulphur proportion.

  • Publication number: 20060005792
    Abstract: The invention relates to a lightweight valve that consists of a valve base, the latter comprising a valve stem and a hollow valve cone, and a valve head cover, whereby the valve base is linked with the valve head cover by means of a material-displacing welding method. A weight-reducing cavity is defined between the valve cone and the valve head cover in the assembled state of the valve, said cavity being provided with a stability-enhancing support structure. Suitable welding methods are projection welding, capacitor discharge welding and friction welding.
