Abstract

Einlasskrümmer, wie Ansaugkrümmer, Sammelbehälter, Saugrohre, Schwingungsrohre, Schaltansaugsysteme usw., für Verbrennungsmotoren nach dem Otto- oder Dieselprinzip, wobei der Einlasskrümmer aus zwei oder mehreren miteinander trennfest verbundenen schalenförmigen Teilen aufgebaut ist und die schalenförmigen Teile Blechformteile, Gussformteile und/oder Strangpressprofile aus Metall sind. Das trennfeste Verbinden der schalenförmigen Teile kann z.B. durch Kleben und/oder Schweissen erfolgen.

Figure 00000001
Intake manifolds, such as intake manifolds, sumps, intake manifolds, vibration tubes, switching intake systems, etc., for internal combustion engines based on the Otto or Diesel principle, the intake manifold being made up of two or more shell-shaped parts that are connected to one another in a separable manner, and the shell-shaped parts are made of sheet metal parts, molded parts and / or extruded profiles Are metal. The shell-shaped parts can be connected in a separable manner, for example by gluing and / or welding.
