Patent number: 8757586Abstract: A solenoid arrangement comprises a pole tube which is axially subdivided into a pole core section, a transition section, and a tube section. A magnetic flux between the pole core section and the tube section is interrupted by the transition section. An armature is movably guided in the pole tube and has, at its end facing the pole core section, a flange which axially projects from an end face. According to the invention, the pole core section has a stepped depression into which the armature can plunge and which, starting from the transition section, is subdivided into an annular collar, a shoulder, and a notch which is set back axially and radially. An axial dimension of the collar exceeds an axial dimension of the flange.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2009Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Juergen Gruen, Horst Bartel, Roland Schempp, Klemens Strauss

Patent number: 8480055Abstract: The invention relates to a solenoid wherein a magnetic discontinuity is formed in the pole tube reducing the effective material thickness, such as by reducing the thickness, particularly the wall thickness of the magnetically active material, the front face of the armature facing the pole core and a bottom face in the interior of the pole tube at the pole core each have a contour allowing mutual axial overlapping. This enables advantageous influencing of the force-stroke characteristic curve of the solenoid with low production effort.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2009Date of Patent: July 9, 2013Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Klemens Strauss, Juergen Gruen, Horst Bartel, Roland Schempp

Patent number: 4480202Abstract: A magnetic linear drive includes an elongated cylindrical armature which is supported for axial displacement in a guiding pipe made of a pressure-resistant material. Two axially spaced solenoid windings are mounted on the guiding pipe and are interconnected by a permanent magnet. The solenoid windings are provided with lateral magnetically conducting cores the ends of which communicate with annular grooves formed in the guiding tube. The grooves are filled with a magnetically conductive material forming the poles of the electromagnet. In the region of the poles, the armature is formed with control flanges of different depths which are acted upon by the magnetic flux to impart the axial movement to the armature. One end of the armature is formed with a measuring flange which cooperates with measuring coils mounted on the guiding pipe.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 1983Date of Patent: October 30, 1984Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Volkmar Leutner, Hans J.

Patent number: 4120233Abstract: Each consumer is provided with a load-compensated direction-reversing valve. Each valve performs a throttling function and a pressure-compensation function in order to establish a selected volumetric flow rate, and also a direction-control function. Each valve comprises a first control valve stage and a second control valve stage. One stage performs the throttling function, the other the pressure-compensation function. One of the two control valve stages also performs the direction-control function. The pressure drop across the stage which performs the throttling function at least in part controls the setting of the stage which performs the pressure-compensation function. Each valve is provided with an electromechanical transducer generating electrical signals indicative of the settings of the stage which performs the pressure-compensation function.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 1977Date of Patent: October 17, 1978Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Joachim Heiser, Wolfgang Bernhardt, Roland Schempp

Patent number: 4072169Abstract: A hydraulic control system has a three-position valve which in its central position disconnects the high-pressure and low-pressure sides of a pressure source from outlet lines but connects these sides of the source together through a low-pressure valve. Moved to either of its end positions the valve is disconnected from between the sides of the pressure source and the output lines are connected to the high-pressure and low-pressure source sides. A pressure-limiting valve is connected between the sides of the source. In addition, the high-pressure side is connected via pressure-reducing valve and a restriction to a pair of pilot valves which are in turn connected to the low-pressure side. These pilot valves are also connected to opposite chambers of a pilot cylinder that controls the valve body. The pressure-reducing valve between the pilot valves and the high-pressure side maintains a medium-pressure level in the system when the valves move from its central position.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 1976Date of Patent: February 7, 1978Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Joachim Heiser, Rainer Hoheisel, Heinz Flaschar, Heinz Gand, Heinz Kleinschmidt, Konrad Braunlinger, Klaus Sopha, Roland Schempp, Hermann Sanzenbacher
