  • Patent number: 10982575
    Abstract: An ejector device having a base body that includes a suction chamber for sucking in a suction medium, a mixing channel for mixing a propelling medium with the suction medium, and a drive nozzle device for generating and directing a propelling medium jet along a jet direction from the suction chamber and into the mixing channel. The ejector device also includes a fastening device for fastening the base body of the ejector device to a suction channel. The fastening device also includes at least one of a translational locking device for avoiding a translational movement of the base body relative to the suction channel in a direction running parallel to a center axis of a connecting piece of the suction channel and a rotational locking device for preventing the base body from rotating relative to the suction channel.
