Abstract: A hydraulic feed device may include a pendulum-slide cell pump having an internal rotor drivingly connected to an external rotor via pendulum slides. A hydraulic positioning device may have a positioning element for changing an eccentricity between the internal rotor and the external rotor. The positioning element may be preloaded by a spring device for setting a maximum eccentricity. The positioning device may have a first pressure adjusting and a second pressure adjusting chamber for adjusting the positioning element. The first pressure adjusting chamber may be permanently hydraulically connected to a pressure side of the pendulum-slide cell pump and configured to hydraulically counteract the spring device. The second pressure adjusting chamber may be controlled via a control valve and hydraulically connected to the pressure side of the pendulum-slide cell pump and configured to hydraulically counteract the spring device.

Abstract: A humidifier block and a method for producing a humidifier block are disclosed. The humidifier block may include a plurality of membranes each having a cavity for passing a through-flow and a jacket surrounding the cavity in a circumferential direction. The jacket may be moisture-permeable. At least one strip-shaped carrier may be fitted with the plurality of membranes, and the plurality of membranes may arranged in a longitudinal direction parallel to one another and adjacent to one another on the at least one carrier. The at least one carrier fitted with the plurality of membranes may be shaped into the humidifier block such that the plurality of membranes are arranged adjacent to one another in a transverse direction running transversely to the longitudinal direction and adjacent in a height direction running transversely to the longitudinal direction and transversely to the transverse direction.

Abstract: A flat filter element for filtering a fluid may include a filter body made up of a folded filter material. The filter element may also include a circumferential edge and a side edge running in a circumferential direction along the circumferential edge. The side edge may have at least one strip portion, running along the side edge, with a side strip that may be separate from the filter body and arranged on the filter body. The side edge may also have at least one adhesive portion running along the side edge for sealing the filter body. The at least one adhesive portion may be formed by gluing of least two folds, adjacent along the side edge, in a region of the side edge.

Abstract: A filter element for at least one of a fresh air system and a ventilation and/or air-conditioning system of a motor vehicle may include a filter body including a folded filter material that laterally surrounds an internal space. A first end plate and a second end plate may be sealingly attached to the filter body at sides that are facing away from one another. A front plate may be arranged in a lateral region of the filter body. The front plate may include a first end plate joining region and a second end plate joining region facing the first end plate and the second end plate. The first and second end plate joining regions may be fused with a front-side end of the first and second end plates.

Abstract: A charge air cooler for an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The charge air cooler includes at least one connecting piece for connection to at least one cooling circuit configured to conduct coolant. The charge air cooler includes at least one coolant pump for circulating the coolant. The at least one coolant pump is integrated in at least one flow path within the charge air cooler.

Abstract: A fluid conditioning module, comprising: a pump and at least one additional conditioning device, wherein the pump generates a fluid cycle of at least one fluid to be conditioned between a fluid sump, the pump and the conditioning device, and wherein the at least one fluid is substantially at rest in the fluid sump.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cooling system (1) in a motor vehicle with a cooling circuit in which at least one internal combustion engine (2), one pump (3) and one cooling device (4) are arranged, wherein a short circuit line (5) which bypasses the pump (3) is provided, which connects a pressure side to an intake side of the pump (3), a valve device (6) which can be switched between at least two positions is provided in the region of the short circuit line (5), in the first position the entire coolant flow flows through the short circuit line (5) and in the second position preferably the entire coolant flow flows through the internal combustion engine (2) and not through the short circuit line (5).

Abstract: An apparatus for transmitting sound in a motor vehicle including a housing (1) with an inside partition (2), which together define or delimit two separate subspaces (3, 4), which in turn are separated by a transmission valve (6) which opens through the partition (2) and can pivot about a pivot axis (5). The first subspace (3) is connected to an intake manifold of an internal combustion engine, and the second subspace (4) is connected to an interior of the motor vehicle. An elastic and at least partially perforated sealing element (8) is provided in a gap (25) between a peripheral edge (7) of the transmission valve (6) and the housing (1).
