Abstract: A control arrangement for a coolant pump of an internal combustion engine includes a control slide which controls a throughflow cross-section of an annular gap arranged between an outlet of a coolant pump impeller and a surrounding delivery duct. A control pump adapts a hydraulic pressure generated in a flow duct. An electromagnetic valve includes a first and second valve seat, a first, second and third flow connection, a closing member and an armature. The first flow connection is fluidically connected to an outlet of the control pump. The second flow connection is fluidically connected to a first pressure chamber of the control slide. The third flow connection is fluidically connected to an inlet of the coolant pump. The first valve seat is arranged between the first flow connection and the second flow connection. The second valve seat is arranged between the second flow connection and the third flow connection.

Abstract: A coolant pump includes a conveying channel, a drive shaft, a coolant pump impeller arranged on the drive shaft, a control slide which controls a flow cross-section of an annular gap between an exit of the coolant pump impeller and the conveying channel, a side channel pump which includes a side channel pump impeller arranged on the drive shaft and a side channel having an inlet and an outlet where a pressure can be generated by the side channel pump impeller rotating, a pressure channel having a flow cross section which fluidically connects the outlet to a first pressure chamber of the control slide, a valve which closes the flow cross-section, a second pressure chamber arranged on a side of the control slide facing the coolant pump impeller, and a connection channel arranged from the side channel into the second pressure chamber between the inlet and the outlet.

Abstract: A coolant pump for an internal combustion engine. The coolant pump includes a delivery duct, a drive shaft, a coolant pump impeller arranged on the drive shaft to rotate therewith and to convey a coolant, and an adjustable control slide which controls a throughflow cross-section of an annular gap arranged between an outlet of the coolant pump impeller and the surrounding delivery duct. The control slide comprises a first pressure chamber arranged on a side of the control slide facing away from the coolant pump impeller and a second pressure chamber arranged opposite thereto. A control pump includes a control pump impeller arranged at the drive shaft to rotate therewith. A connecting duct fluidically connects the flow duct to the second pressure chamber. A pressure duct fluidically connects the flow duct outlet to the first pressure chamber. A valve opens and closes a throughflow cross-section of the pressure duct.

Abstract: A method for controlling a coolant pump for an engine includes delivering a coolant via a coolant pump impeller into a delivery duct to a pump outlet, and adjusting the delivery based on a position of an adjustable control slide which controls a throughflow cross-section of an annular gap between the coolant pump impeller outlet and the delivery duct. A first pressure chamber on a side of the control slide is filled with a pressurized coolant to decrease the throughflow cross-section and the coolant volume flow delivered to the pump outlet, or a second pressure space arranged on an opposite side is filled with the pressurized coolant to increase the throughflow cross-section and the coolant volume flow delivered to the pump outlet. The control slide is moved into a defined position when the engine is switched off dependent on a coolant temperature and remains in that position until a restart.
