Abstract: A control device for at least one consumer of a motor vehicle, having an engine and at least one pump for supplying a medium via at least one pressure line to the at least one consumer, is configured to supply the medium to the at least one consumer before the engine is started. The pump can be driven by an electric motor or by the engine of the motor vehicle or alternatingly by the electric motor and the engine.

Abstract: A valve has a solenoid part and a valve part connected to the solenoid part. The valve part has a housing provided with connecting bores for a pressure medium, including a pressure connector and working connectors. The valve part has a piston and the solenoid part acts on the piston to alternatingly connect the working connectors to the pressure connector. The valve part has at least one groove extending alongside the valve part. At least one of the connecting bores is positioned in the at least one groove.

Abstract: A camshaft adjusting device for internal combustion engines of motor vehicles has an intake camshaft adjuster and an exhaust camshaft adjuster driven by an endless drive connected to the crankshaft. The intake and exhaust camshaft adjusters are connected by a gear transmission to one another. The intake and exhaust camshaft adjusters each have a gear forming a part of the gear transmission. The intake and exhaust camshaft adjusters are directly drivingly connected by the gears or a common gear wheel fixedly connected to an intermediate shaft is positioned between the gears.

Abstract: The invention concerns a needle arrangement for an injection device (16). It has a hollow needle carrier (10) on which a hollow needle (12) is mounted and which is configured for mounting on the injection device (16). The arrangement has a cap (32) which is displaceable on the hollow needle carrier (10) approximately parallel to the longitudinal extension of the hollow needle (12), is equipped at its proximal end segment with a passthrough opening (42) for the hollow needle (12), and in its proximal end position substantially conceals the hollow needle (12). A compression spring (26) is arranged between the hollow needle carrier (10) and cap (32) in order to displace the cap (32) into its proximal end position. Also provided is a covering cap (66) which surrounds the displaceable cap (32), the hollow needle (12), and the hollow needle carrier (10), and is sealed on its open side by a sealing member (71) that is removable by the user. A needle arrangement of this kind can easily be replaced after an injection.
