Abstract: A method is provided for coating a substrate, in particular a fiber reinforced plastic component, a protective layer being applied, with preference by means of thermal spraying, to a non-cured resin film applied to a release film, and subsequently, after removal of the release film, the resin film being applied to the substrate and cured.

Abstract: A system and method for manufacturing welded structures comprises components to be welded, a welding additive material which, before the welding, has a shaped profile and the shaped profile is disposed between components to be welded and conforms with at least one of the components to be welded. At least one heat source is used in the method to weld the components, producing a weld seam on at least one side of one of the components.

Abstract: A joining of a titanium material with an aluminium material, wherein the parts made of the two substances are connected with each other in a substance-to-substance manner. Preferably, the joining is effected by a laser beam or an electron beam.

Abstract: A filler material improves the quality of a joint seam formed during thermal joining of two metallic structural components and includes a core and a coating that surrounds the core at least in sections Because the filler material comprises a coating on the core, the alloying material for the coating may be selected largely independently of any possibly limiting metallurgical requirements in relation to the base material for the core so that with the use of the heterogeneous filler material optimal joint seam characteristics of the joined structural components always result, largely irrespective of the materials composition of the core If an essentially H-shaped cross-sectional geometry of the filler material used, moreover, preliminary fixing or alignment of the structural components that are to be joined in a thermal joining process becomes possible.

Abstract: A spark plug electrode having a welded-on noble-metal part for a longer service life of the spark plug. Prior to the welding process, the noble-metal part is provided with a profiling on the side facing the spark plug electrode.

Abstract: A fuel-injection valve, in particular, a high-pressure injection valve, for injecting fuel directly into a combustion chamber of a mixture-compressing internal combustion engine with externally supplied ignition is distinguished by the fact that a guide and seating area formed by three disc-shaped elements is provided at a downstream end of the valve. A swirl element is embedded between a guide element and a valve seat element. The guide element is used to guide a valve needle which passes through it and can move in the axial direction, while a valve closing segment of the valve interacts with a valve seat surface of the valve seat element. The swirl element has an inner opening area with multiple swirl channels. The three disc-shaped elements are permanently connected to each other, forming a positive-locking joint.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve is described which has a swirl disk downstream from a valve seat, the swirl disk being made of at least one metallic material, having at least two swirl channels opening into a swirl chamber, and in which all layers are adheringly deposited directly one on top of the other by electroplating (multilayer electroplating). The swirl disk is installed in the valve so that the surface normal to its surface forms an oblique angle other than 0° with the longitudinal valve axis, so that a jet angle &ggr; with respect to the longitudinal valve axis is formed due to the orientation of the swirl disk. The fuel injection valve is particularly well suited for direct injection of fuel into the combustion chamber of a compressed mixture externally ignited internal combustion engine.
