Patent number: 12378956Abstract: A method for manufacturing a component with moulded-on seal, in particular a pump component. The component is laid in an injection-moulding tool, then a sealing material is injected from an injection gate into the injection-moulding tool and fills a cavity on one side of the component. Sufficient sealing material is injected for a part of the sealing material to pass from the cavity, via an overflow channel connected to the cavity, into an overflow chamber which is provided inside the contour of the component. A component can includes the moulded-on seal.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2022Date of Patent: August 5, 2025Assignee: Valeo Powertrain GmbHInventors: Thomas Pohl, Freddy Steinmetz

Patent number: 12210903Abstract: In an approach, a processor indexes system documents of a computer system using a text search engine, resulting in a search index, where the computer system is described by a set of system parameters with values stored in the system documents. A processor provides a set of scheduling rules for allocating computing resources of the computer system, each scheduling rule comprising a search query referencing one or more of the system parameters. A processor executes search queries by the text search engine against the search index, resulting in scored system documents and associated search queries. A processor ranks at least part of the set of scheduling rules using scores of the associated search queries. A processor selects scheduling rules in accordance with the ranking. A processor executes the selected scheduling rules for scheduling a workload on the computer system.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2023Date of Patent: January 28, 2025Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Thomas Pohl, Uwe Karl Hansmann, Timo Kussmaul
