A brake pedal module for a brake-by-wire braking system of a vehicle is disclosed, with a carrier component for attaching the brake pedal module to the vehicle, a brake pedal mounted pivotably on the carrier component, a feedback unit which, to generate a resistance on actuation of the brake pedal, is mechanically coupled at one end to the brake pedal and at the other end to the carrier module, and a sensor unit for detecting a braking request of a driver and having at least one sensor for detecting an actuation travel. The sensor unit is attached to the carrier component at the side of the brake pedal such that the sensor is arranged on a pivot bearing of the brake pedal.

A closure element () for a ball joint () in a vehicle. The closure element has a receptacle () for accommodating an electronic component (). To be able to reduce the effort and cost of creating an interface, between the closure element and the electronic component, the closure element () has a receptacle () which is made of a plastic material and is injection-molded onto one side () of the closure element ().

Closure element for a ball-and-socket joint, and ball-and-socket joint having a closure element of this kind

A ball joint for a chassis of a vehicle. The ball joint has an inner joint portion () and a slide bearing (). The inner joint portion () is movably fitted in the slide bearing (). The ball joint further has a closure element () for closing a joint housing. The slide bearing () and the closure element () are connected to one another. To reduce the number of components and/or the number of assembly steps, the ball joint () is characterized in that the slide bearing (), for the inner joint portion (), is made as a single, one-piece plastic component ().

An intake charged pump for pumping liquid and which has an intake duct that extends to the suction area of the pump. The pump has a duct through which a jet stream flows to the suction area. A nozzle arrangement in the intake duct accelerates the liquid which is returned via the jet stream and supports the suction of a suction stream of the liquid from a storage container. A nozzle of the nozzle arrangement leads into the mixing chamber at an acute angle in a such way that the jet stream, leaving the nozzle, creates a common mixing stream with the suction stream from the storage container, and through which partial streams having essentially the same pressure and energy content, can be delivered to the front and back suction pockets of the double chamber pump.

A transmission for a vehicle is proposed which comprises one main transmission MT with one input shaft () and one output shaft (), the same as at least one range change group () and one power take off, wherein one countershaft () integrated in the range change group () for actuating a power take off, the countershaft () being connectable, via a gear change sleeve unit (), with the input shaft () and the output shaft () and the power take off can be driven independently of the operating state of the vehicle.

The invention relates to a circuit configuration for connecting the stator windings of a brushless, electronically commutated motor, especially as a drive motor for an automobile fan drive. The configuration comprises a circuit board (,) with conducting paths, each of which is connected to the wire leads of the winding coils of each phase winding and one of which is connected to the ends of winding coils of all of the phase windings. This electronically commutated motor simplifies the interconnection of the stator windings in that the circuit board (,) includes an annular disk-shaped support plate (,) which, together with the stator assembly, is attached by a hub (,) to a bearing support pipe on the motor flange. The conducting paths are made of stamped conductor rails (,) which are fixed on the support plate (,), concentrically to the hub (,).
