Abstract:
An electromagnetic pressure control module for a pressure-medium-actuated brake system of a motor vehicle, having at least two channels, the module being controlled electrically in undisrupted operation and pneumatically in the event of a fault in the electrics, and also from a method for operating the electropneumatic pressure control module.
Abstract:
A pressure-regulated friction clutch is provided including a cylinder-piston unit, operated by a pressure medium, which permits a frictional connection of an output shaft with a driven plate fixed thereto and an input shaft with a driving plate fixed thereto, for the transmission of a torque from the input shaft with a permanently pressurized cylinder-piston unit.
Abstract:
A bistable valve for use in a parking brake system has a self-retaining device. The self-retaining device includes a movable sliding element, a stationary latch, and a deep latching element pivotable relative to the sliding element and the latch. A method is provided for actuating the parking brake system having the bistable valve including the self-retaining device.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a hydraulic or pneumatic control device for an automated shift transmission, comprising actuating devices with actuating cylinders (15, 16) having pressure spaces (19a, 19b; 20a, 20b), such that the pressure spaces (19a, 19b; 20a, 20b) of the actuating cylinders (15, 16) can be connected by a respective control valve (22a, 22b; 32a, 32b) to a pressure line (26) and the said pressure line (26) can be selectively connected to a main pressure line (8) or cut off therefrom by means of a main shut-off valve (45a). To improve the control characteristics and increase the operational reliability, at least one further main shut-off valve (45b) is arranged in parallel with the first main shut-off valve (45a) between the main pressure line (8) and the pressure line (26).
Abstract:
Electropneumatic control valve for a pneumatic brake system of a vehicle, having a divided valve housing consisting of a lower relay valve housing and an upper pilot valve housing which enclose a control chamber in which an axially adjustable control piston is guided. The piston can be acted upon by way of a pilot valve arrangement accommodated in the pilot valve housing in order to switch the compressed-air flow between at least one brake line connection arranged on the relay valve housing, a supply pressure connection and as a bleeder connection by way of an interior valve seat arrangement. A control connection of a back-up valve of the pilot valve arrangement is also arranged on the relay valve housing, and by way of a valve-internal pressure medium duct is connected with the back-up magnetic valve accommodated in the pilot valve housing. Internal pressure medium ducts are arranged and sealed in a manner that allows the pilot valve housing to be produced without machining.
Abstract:
An electropneumatic regulating valve for an air brake system of a motor vehicle, with a valve seat assembly which switches compressed air flow between at least one external brake line connection, a feed pressure connection, and a venting port, the valve seat assembly including a coaxial valve seat assembly with external and internal valve seats and a pot-like sealing cup with a coaxial passage. A ring-shaped, surface of the sealing cup seals between the exterior and interior valve seats. The opposing face of the ring-shaped surface has two coaxial sealing lip segments projecting away from the ring-shaped surface and forming an annular space therebetween. The sealing cup includes a reinforcing insert with a U-shaped cross-section located in the annular space which reinforces the ring-shaped surface and the sealing lip segments. The insert also has a molded-on shoulder which reinforces the inside radial area of the sealing area.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a piloted valve, in particular an electropneumatic control valve for a pneumatic brake system of a vehicle. Said valve comprises a divided valve housing, in which at least one control piston that can be axially displaced for actuating a valve seat arrangement, which switches the compressed air flow between external connections, is located. The control piston can be impinged by at least one electromagnetic pilot valve to cause the axial displacement, said valve being lodged in a pilot valve housing part that is connected to the relay valve housing part, whereby a pressure compensation channel with multiple bends is configured in the vicinity of the wall of the control chamber in the valve housing for bleeding a pressureless hollow chamber in the interior of the valve. The outlet opening of said channel that leads to the exterior is located at a distance behind a cover hood on the valve housing and is protected against water splashes. The section of said channel that lies in close proximity to the hollow chamber is provided with an interchangeable pressure compensation element.
Abstract:
In a conductor foil for conductively connecting electrical and/or electronic components, the conductor foil including printed circuit traces, insulated to the outside and applied on a non-conductive, elastically malleable carrier foil. The conductive foil also includes soldering surfaces connected to the printed circuit traces, for soldering to electric terminals of components, in addition, the conductor foil includes feed line segments through which the printed circuit traces are led to the soldering surfaces, in order, in response to shaking stresses, to avoid damage to the soldering points by vibrations transmitted by the feed line segments. Furthermore, the conductor foil has stiffening segments branching off from the feed line segments, the stiffening segments, in response to shaking stresses, causing a force diversion of the vibrations onto the stiffening segments via the feed line segment movable end, which is not connected to the soldering surfaces.
Abstract:
A work cylinder in which the position of a work piston, its distance traveled at a given time and the speed at which it covers this distance are measured by a hollow-cylindrical sensor, and the results are delivered to an electronic switch device. The sensor serves as a passage for the breathing air of a breathing chamber of the work cylinder, as a result of which the sensor can be cooled. The work cylinder is intended for use to control vehicle engine clutches.
