Abstract: An electric motor has a switching unit with a number of contact wires and an annular frame part. The contact wires are arranged to form an interconnect ring for the coil ends of a stator winding and the ends of the wires being connected by insulation displacement contacts. Each of the contacts have two insulation displacement limbs for connecting at least two of the wire ends, the limbs being spaced apart, thus forming an insulation displacement slot therebetween. The frame part of the switching unit has a number of plug-in pockets for receiving the insulation displacement contacts, the number corresponding to the number of insulation displacement contacts.

Abstract: An improve spring rate of a stabilizer is provided with an extended spring length. An inner rotary part (4) of an oscillating motor (2) and a second stabilizer part (1) are connected to one another with a non-positive connection (force transmitting friction connection) designed such that the axial center of the force-transmitting length of the second stabilizer part (1) and the axial center of the force-transmitting length of the inner rotary part (4) are located on a common radial plane. The non-positive connection between the inner rotary part (4) and a fitting cylinder (14) of the second stabilizer part (1) is formed either from a shrunk-on fit or a toothed part (21) and a fitting part (22), wherein the toothed part (21) and the fitting part (22) are likewise shrunk on.

Abstract: One-part stabilizers are designed for road traffic only or for off-road travel only. Two-part stabilizers with a shiftable clutch have drawbacks in terms of quality and safety. A clutch is therefore presented, whose radial carriers (14, 16) are located on the same plane and which are fixed without clearance via a shiftable and axially displaceable locking piston (17) with locking elements (23) or are released over a predetermined pivot angle.

Abstract: Swivel motors have a large number of tightness problems on the inside, in particular in a broad operating temperature range. Therefore, to improve the tightness over a temperature range of ?40° C. to +130° C., a sealing device (20) is provided with an inner soft sealing element (20) and a plurality of outer rigid sealing elements (21, 22, 23, 24). The soft sealing element (20) and the rigid sealing elements (21, 22, 23, 24) are undetachably connected to one another.

The rigid sealing elements (21, 22, 23, 24) are spaced apart from one another by at least one radial compensating groove (25) and at least one axis-parallel compensating groove (26).

Abstract: To improve the surface finish of the inner circumferential surfaces of the stator and to reduce the manufacturing effort, it is proposed that the stator with a stator housing 1 and with the stator blades 13 have a two-part design and to insert the stator blade 13 into the stator housing 5 in such a way that they rotate in unison. In terms of the process, it is proposed that a commercially available tube with an inner circumferential surface suitable for use as a sealing surface be used and that longitudinally extending joining means be prepared. The stator blades 13 manufactured as an individual part receive corresponding joining means, so that the stator housing 5 and the stator blades 13 are welded, clamped or screwed together.
