  • Patent number: 11813922
    Abstract: An expansion valve for an air conditioning system of a motor vehicle may include a housing, a sensor, a stepping motor or a BLDC motor, a valve seat, and a valve body. The stepping motor or the BLDC motor may include a rotor and a stator surrounding the rotor. The rotor may include a permanent magnet body connected non-rotatably therewith. A separating can may be provided that surrounds the rotor and separates a wet region on a rotor side from a dry region on a stator side. The sensor may be connected with the separating can via an adhesive layer formed as a heat-conductive layer.

  • Publication number: 20220200415
    Abstract: A drive aggregate may include an electric motor, a motor control for activating the electric motor, a housing, and a circuit board holder. The electric motor may include a rotor rotatable around an axis of rotation. The motor control may include a circuit board with a power electronics. The housing may include a base body receiving the electric motor and a cover receiving the motor control. The circuit board holder may support the circuit board and may be arranged axially between the base body and the cover. The base body and the cover may be composed of a metal. The circuit board holder may be composed of a plastic.

  • Publication number: 20210340987
    Abstract: A side channel compressor for compressing a gas includes a housing, in which a side channel is arranged, which can be supplied with gas via a feed channel formed within the housing for feeding gas to the side channel and a discharge channel formed within the housing for discharging gas out of the side channel, wherein in the housing an impeller drive is arranged, wherein the side channel compressor includes a drive control for regulating and/or controlling the impeller drive. The impeller drive includes an impeller which on the output side engages in the side channel of the housing in order to drivingly interact with a gas. The side channel is designed for redirecting the gas flowing through the side channel by at least 270°. The drive control includes an integrated pressure sensor for measuring a gas pressure of the gas flowing within the side channel.
