A pump apparatus has a rotor shaft, a pump impeller connected to the rotor shaft, at least one axial bearing which rotatably supports the rotor shaft at a side facing the pump impeller, a magnetic pump stator, a magnetic pump rotor which is connected to the rotor shaft, a containment can which extends between the stator and the rotor, and at least one central support element which is mounted in the region of the pump impeller. The pump apparatus has an elastomer disk which is arranged between the support element and the axial bearing. The stator and the rotor are arranged with an axial offset with respect to each other. The stator and the rotor are provided as a result of the axial offset to produce an axial force F in the direction of the elastomer disk.

Pump apparatus, in particular magnetic coupling pump apparatus

A slide rail for a continuously variable transmission is disclosed that comprises at least one slide surface arranged for guiding a wrap-around mechanism that connects a first cone pulley pair to a second cone pulley pair of the continuously variable transmission to transfer torque therebetween. The slide rail includes at least one acceleration sensor arranged so that an acceleration of the slide rail perpendicular to the at least one slide surface can be detected by the acceleration sensor.

The disclosure relates to a sliding system for a wraparound transmission for reducing vibrations and undulations of a wraparound means, the sliding system comprising a wraparound means for connecting a transmission input shaft to a transmission output shaft in a torque-transmitting manner. The wraparound means has a plurality of deflecting axes and a height oriented transversely with respect to the deflecting axes. The sliding system also includes a sliding rail which comprises a sliding channel with an inner sliding face and an outer sliding face, wherein the sliding channel defines a running direction for the wraparound means, and the sliding channel being divided in the running direction into an entry section, a main section and an exit section. The sliding channel has a setpoint height adapted to the height of the wraparound means.

The disclosure relates to a sliding rail half for a two-piece sliding rail, the sliding rail being set up to reduce vibrations and undulations for a wraparound means of a wraparound gear mechanism, the sliding rail half being distinguished, above all, by the fact that a first pin is arranged in a first mounting, wherein the first pin, in interaction with a hook of a second sliding rail half to be joined, prevents a displacement of the second sliding rail half relative to the first sliding rail half along a longitudinal axis when a first sliding face and a second sliding face are arranged in a sliding plane and a first joining face is in contact at least partially with a corresponding second joining face and the hook is not received in the first mounting.

A chain guide element having a pair of guide rails spaced from each other to guide a moving chain therebetween. A coupling element extends from one guide rail for receiving a transversely arranged holding element for allowing pivotal movement of the chain guide element relative to the holding element. A securing element is carried by the holding element for engagement with the coupling element.

Chain guide element

A chain guide element having a first guide rail and a second guide rail which is spaced from the first guide rail to guide a moving chain therebetween. On each lateral side of the chain guide element connecting elements connect the two guide rails in spaced relationship to slidably receive a moving chain. First supporting elements are positioned on the laterally arranged connecting elements that connect the first and second guide rails, and second supporting elements are carried by a stationary component to cooperate with the first supporting elements so that the chain guide element is pivotable and is linearly movable relative to the second supporting elements.

A guide device for guiding an endless torque-transmitting member of a belt-driven, conical-pulley transmission. The device includes an outer guide section, and an inner guide section that is spaced from the outer guide section and between which guide sections the endless torque-transmitting member is guidable in a direction of travel of that member. The device is formed from two halves that are connected to each other by a plug-in and slide connection arrangement, in order to improve the guide device structurally, functionally, and from a producibility standpoint.
