Description

Die Erfindung betrifft gemäß dem Patentanspruch 1 einen Nockenwellentrieb mit einer, Nockenwelle mit einem Nockenwellen einsatz der drehfest mit einem Rotor eines Schwenkmotorverstellers verbunden ist, wie er aus der WO 2008/140 897 bekannt ist.The invention relates to a camshaft drive with a, camshaft with a camshaft insert which is rotatably connected to a rotor of a Schwenkmotorverstellers according to claim 1, as it is known from WO 2008/140 897 is known.

Aus der DE 100 50 225 A1 ist bereits ein elektrohydraulisches Ventil für einen Schwenkmotorversteller einer Nockenwelle bekannt. Dieses Ventil ist in ein Ventilgehäuse eingesetzt, in dem Kanäle mit Arbeitsanschlüssen A, B vorgesehen sind, die zu den Druckräumen vom Schwenkmotorversteller führen. Ein Stößel des elektrohydraulischen Ventils liegt an einer Kolbenstange an, die einteilig mit einem Kolben verbunden ist. Dieser Kolben ist dabei gegen eine Federkraft innerhalb eines Druckraumes im Ventilgehäuse verschieblich.From the DE 100 50 225 A1 An electro-hydraulic valve for a Schwenkmotorversteller a camshaft is already known. This valve is inserted into a valve housing in which channels are provided with working ports A, B, which lead to the pressure chambers of the Schwenkmotorversteller. A plunger of the electro-hydraulic valve abuts a piston rod which is integrally connected to a piston. This piston is displaceable against a spring force within a pressure chamber in the valve housing.

Die DE 10 2004 038 252 A1 zeigt ein Schwenkmotorversteller mit einem sogenannten Zentralventil. Bei einem Zentralventil ist das Ventil zur Betätigung des Schwenkmotorverstellers radial innerhalb des Rotors auf dessen Rotornabe angeordnet.The DE 10 2004 038 252 A1 shows a Schwenkmotorversteller with a so-called central valve. In a central valve, the valve for actuating the Schwenkmotorverstellers is arranged radially inside the rotor on the rotor hub.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Schwenkmotorversteller zu schaffen, in dem platzsparend ein Druckspeicher vorgesehen ist.The object of the invention is to provide a Schwenkmotorversteller, in which space-saving a pressure accumulator is provided.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit den Merkmalen von Patentanspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved with the features of claim 1.

In besonders vorteilhafter Weise ist gemäß Patentanspruch 1 ein Druckspeicher in einem Nockenwelleneinsatz integriert, welcher den Rotor trägt.In a particularly advantageous manner, a pressure accumulator is integrated in a camshaft insert, which carries the rotor according to claim 1.

Dabei sind in einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung der Nockenwelleneinsatz und ein Gewindezapfen zur drehfesten Befestigung des Rotors an der Nockenwelle einteilig ausgeführt. Damit kann der Nockenwelleneinsatz sehr dickwandig ausgeführt sein, wodurch eine Längsbohrung in diesen eingebracht werden kann. Diese Längsbohrung kann insbesondere das vom Druckspeicher kommende Hydraulikfluid - insbesondere Motoröl - zum zentralen Ventil leiten. Das zentrale Ventil kann dabei derart ausgeführt sein, dass von der Längsbohrung über ein kleine Querbohrung Hyraulikfluid einer Ringnut im Ventilkolben zugeleitet wird, welche durch Ringstege begrenzt ist. An diesen Ringstegen liegen die Ablaufkanten. Haben diese Ringstege gleichen Außendurchmesser, so ist das zentrale Ventil druckausgeglichen.In this case, in a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the camshaft insert and a threaded pin for rotationally fixed attachment of the rotor to the camshaft are made in one piece. Thus, the camshaft insert can be made very thick-walled, whereby a longitudinal bore introduced into this can be. This longitudinal bore can, in particular, guide the hydraulic fluid coming from the accumulator-in particular engine oil-to the central valve. The central valve can be designed such that is supplied from the longitudinal bore via a small transverse bore Hyraulikfluid an annular groove in the valve piston, which is limited by annular webs. At these ring webs are the edges. If these annular webs have the same outer diameter, then the central valve is pressure-balanced.

In besonders vorteilhafter Weise brauchen im Kraftfluss der Verschraubung keine Querbohrungen zu liegen, so dass hohe Axialkräfte übertragbar sind.In a particularly advantageous manner need in the power flow of the screw no cross holes to lie, so that high axial forces are transferable.

Die erfindungsgemäße folgend dargestellte Konstruktion ermöglicht es, dass die Bereiche des Nockenwelleneinsatzes mit Querbohrungen für die Arbeitsanschlüsse A, B frei von Zugkräften gehalten werden, wobei diese Bereiche beim Anziehen der Mutter lediglich mit Torsionskräften belastet sind.The construction according to the invention shown below makes it possible that the areas of the camshaft insert with transverse bores for the working ports A, B are kept free of tensile forces, these areas are only loaded with torsional forces when tightening the nut.

In besonders vorteilhafter Weise kann ein Rückschlagventil vorgesehen sein, dass Leckageverluste an der Drehdurchführung für das Fluid - insbesondere Motoröl - vermindert.In a particularly advantageous manner, a check valve may be provided that reduces leakage losses at the rotary feedthrough for the fluid, in particular engine oil.

Weitere Vorteile der Erfindung gehen aus den weiteren Patentansprüchen, der Beschreibung und der Zeichnung vor.Further advantages of the invention will become apparent from the other claims, the description and the drawings.

Die Erfindung ist nachfolgend anhand von zwei Ausgestaltungsformen näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to two embodiments.

Dabei zeigen

  • Fig. 1 konstruktiv einen Nockenwellentrieb in einer ersten Ausgestaltungsform und Fig. 1 zeigt einen Nockenwellentrieb mit einem Schwenkmotorversteller 1, wie ein solcher auch bereits in der DE 100 50 225 A1 dargestellt ist. Im Gegensatz zur DE 100 50 225 A1 ist ein Hydraulikteil 2 eines Ventils 3 jedoch als zentrales Ventil - d.h.
Zentralventil - ausgeführt. Der Schwenkmotorversteller 1 umfasst einen über eine Verzahnung 48 von einer Kurbelwelle bzw. einer anderen Nockenwelle angetriebenen Stator 4. Dazu greift in diese Verzahnung 48 eine Kette, ein Zahnriemen oder ein weiteres Zahnrad ein. Ferner umfasst der Schwenkmotorversteller 1 einen Rotor 6, der gegenüber dem Stator 4 verschwenkbar angeordnet ist. Dazu unterteilen Flügel 49 des Rotors 6 nicht näher dargestellte Kammern des Stators 4 in gegenläufige Druckkammern.Show
  • Fig. 1 constructively a camshaft drive in a first embodiment and Fig. 1 shows a camshaft drive with a Schwenkmotorversteller 1, such as one already in the DE 100 50 225 A1 is shown. In contrast to DE 100 50 225 A1 is a hydraulic part 2 of a valve 3, however, as a central valve - ie
Central valve - executed. The Schwenkmotorversteller 1 comprises a via a toothing 48 driven by a crankshaft or other camshaft stator 4. For this purpose engages in this toothing 48, a chain, a toothed belt or another gear. Furthermore, the Schwenkmotorversteller 1 comprises a rotor 6 which is arranged pivotably relative to the stator 4. For this purpose, subdivide wings 49 of the rotor 6 not shown chambers of the stator 4 in opposite pressure chambers.

Der Nockenwellentrieb umfasst eine Nockenwelle 5, die beidseitig in nicht näher dargestellten Nockenwellenlagern gelagert ist. Diese Nockenwelle 5 weist nicht näher dargestellte Nocken auf, mit denen Gaswechselventile eines Verbrennungsmotors betätigbar sind. Die Nockenwelle 5 ist als gebaute Nockenwelle ausgeführt. Dabei ist der Grundkörper der Nockenwelle 5 ein Hohlrohr, auf das Nocken aufgeschrumpft bzw. aufgepresst sind. In das schwenkmotorseitige Ende ist eine Passung 7 in den Innenraum der Hohlwelle gedreht, der einen Innenzapfen 8 eines Nockenwelleneinsatz 9 aufnimmt.The camshaft drive comprises a camshaft 5, which is mounted on both sides in non-illustrated camshaft bearings. This camshaft 5 has cam, not shown, with which gas exchange valves of an internal combustion engine can be actuated. The camshaft 5 is designed as a built-up camshaft. Here, the main body of the camshaft 5 is a hollow tube, are shrunk or pressed onto the cam. In the pivot motor end end a fit 7 is rotated in the interior of the hollow shaft, which receives an inner pin 8 of a camshaft insert 9.

Außerhalb der Nockenwelle 5 ist der Nockenwelleneinsatz 9 als Rotorträger 10 ausgeformt, der einen größeren Durchmesser aufweist, als der Innenzapfen 8. Am hinteren Ende weist der Nockenwelleneinsatz 9 einen Gewindezapfen 11 auf, dessen Gewindedurchmesser kleiner ist, als der Durchmesser des Rotorträgers 10. Auf diesen Gewindezapfen 11 ist eine Mutter 12 aufgeschraubt, welche den Rotor 6 drehfest gegen einen Absatz 13 des Rotorträgers 10 verspannt. Dazu ist ein radial von einer Rotornabe 14 radial nach innen ragender ringförmiger Ansatz 15 axial zwischen der Mutter 12 und dem Absatz 13 des Nockenwelleneinsatzes 9 verspannt. Dieser Absatz 13 grenzt den Rotorträger 10 vom Gewindezapfen 11 ab. Die Rotornabe 14 ist auf den hinteren Bereich des Rotorträgers 10 aufgesetzt.Outside the camshaft 5, the camshaft insert 9 is formed as a rotor carrier 10, which has a larger diameter than the inner pin 8. At the rear end, the camshaft insert 9 has a threaded pin 11 whose thread diameter is smaller than the diameter of the rotor carrier 10. On this Threaded pin 11 is a nut 12 is screwed, which rotatably clamped the rotor 6 against a shoulder 13 of the rotor carrier 10. For this purpose, a radially projecting from a rotor hub 14 radially inwardly annular shoulder 15 is clamped axially between the nut 12 and the shoulder 13 of the camshaft insert 9. This paragraph 13 delimits the rotor carrier 10 from the threaded pin 11. The rotor hub 14 is placed on the rear portion of the rotor carrier 10.

Hingegen ragt der vordere Bereich des Rotorträgers 10 durch ein Lagerauge 16 eines Zylinderkopfteils 17, welches diesen Rotorträger 10 lagernd aufnimmt. Dabei ist in das Zylinderkopfteil 17 eine Ringnut 18 eingearbeitet, welcher von einer nicht näher dargestellten Ölpumpe Motoröl zugeführt wird, so dass dieser Ringnut 18 einen Druckanschluss P bildet. In diese Ringnut 18 ist ein bandförmiges Rückschlagventil 50 eingesetzt, welches verhindert, das infolge von Nockenwellenwechselmomenten Motoröl in die Ölpumpe zurückströmen kann. Von diesem Druckanschluss P wird das unter Druck stehende Motoröl in eine Querbohrung 19 des Rotorträgers 10 einspeist. Von dieser durchgehenden Querbohrung 19 teilt sich der Fluss des Motoröls auf einen Druckspeicher 20 und eine zum Ventil 3 führende Längsbohrung 21 in dem Rotorträger 10 auf. Diese Längsbohrung 21 ist an deren zum Motorinnenraum weisenden Ende mit einer eingepressten Kugel 22 verschlossen.By contrast, the front region of the rotor carrier 10 protrudes through a bearing eye 16 of a cylinder head part 17, which receives this rotor carrier 10 in stock. In this case, an annular groove 18 is incorporated in the cylinder head part 17, which is supplied by an oil pump, not shown engine oil, so that this annular groove 18 forms a pressure port P. In this annular groove 18 is a band-shaped Check valve 50 is used, which prevents the engine oil can flow back into the oil pump due to camshaft alternating torques. From this pressure port P, the pressurized engine oil is fed into a transverse bore 19 of the rotor carrier 10. From this continuous transverse bore 19, the flow of engine oil is divided on a pressure accumulator 20 and a longitudinal bore 21 leading to the valve in the rotor arm 10. This longitudinal bore 21 is closed at its end facing the engine compartment with a pressed ball 22.

Der Druckspeicher 20 ist in einem vorderen Bereich des Nockenwelleneinsatzes 9 koaxial zu dessen Zentralachse 23 ausgerichtet. Ein Druckraum 24 des Druckspeichers 20 wird von einem Sackloch 25 gebildet, das von vorne in den Nockenwelleneinsatz 9 gearbeitet ist. In diesem Sackloch 25 ist ein Hydraulikkolben 26 axialverschiebbar geführt, der mit einer vom Druckraum 24 hinfort weisenden Richtung Kolbenstange 27 bewegungsfest verbunden ist. Diese Kolbenstange 27 ragt mit radialem Spiel durch einen Ring 28, der im Eintrittsbereich des Sackloches 25 fest in den Innenzapfen 8 eingepresst ist. An diesem Ring 28 stützt sich ein Ende einer Schraubendruckfeder 29 ab, deren anderes Ende an dem Hydraulikkolben 26 abgestützt ist. Das radiale Spiel zwischen der Kolbenstange 27 und dem Ring 28 ermöglicht den Durchtritt von Luft bzw. Motoröl, so dass der Hydraulikkolben 26 frei verschieblich ist, ohne dass das aus einem Federraum zu verdrängende Volumen zu hohen Strömungswiderständen führt. Damit bildet sich der mittels einer Federkraft belastbare Druckspeicher 20.The pressure accumulator 20 is aligned in a front region of the camshaft insert 9 coaxially with its central axis 23. A pressure chamber 24 of the pressure accumulator 20 is formed by a blind hole 25, which is worked from the front into the camshaft insert 9. In this blind hole 25, a hydraulic piston 26 is guided axially displaceable, which is connected immovably with a direction away from the pressure chamber 24 direction piston rod 27. This piston rod 27 protrudes with radial clearance through a ring 28 which is pressed firmly into the inner pin 8 in the entry region of the blind hole 25. On this ring 28, one end of a helical compression spring 29 is supported, the other end is supported on the hydraulic piston 26. The radial clearance between the piston rod 27 and the ring 28 allows the passage of air or engine oil, so that the hydraulic piston 26 is freely displaceable, without that to be displaced from a spring chamber volume leads to high flow resistance. This forms the loadable by means of a spring pressure accumulator 20th

Fluchtend zu diesem Druckspeicher 20 ist ein Hydraulikteil 2 im Nockenwelleneinsatz 9 angeordnet. Zwischen dem Druckspeicher 20 und dem Hydraulikteil 2 liegt dabei eine Trennwand 30. An dieser Trennwand 30 stützt sich ein Ende einer weiteren Schraubendruckfeder 31 ab, deren anderes Ende an einem Boden 32 eines Ventilkolbens 33 abgestützt ist. Dazu ragt dieses andere Ende in eine Führungsausnehmung 34 des Ventilkolbens 33 bis zum Ausnehmungsgrund, in dem der Boden 32 liegt.In alignment with this pressure accumulator 20, a hydraulic part 2 is arranged in the camshaft insert 9. A partition wall 30 lies between the pressure accumulator 20 and the hydraulic part 2. An end of a further helical compression spring 31 is supported on this partition wall 30, the other end of which is supported on a bottom 32 of a valve piston 33. For this purpose, this other end projects into a guide recess 34 of the valve piston 33 up to the recess bottom, in which the bottom 32 lies.

Der Ventilkolben 33 ist in einem zentralen Sackloch 35 axial geführt. Das Sackloch 35 ist im Bereich des Gewindezapfens 11 geöffnet. Dabei bildet der Eintrittsbereich dieses Sackloches 35 den ersten Tankabfluss T1.The valve piston 33 is axially guided in a central blind hole 35. The blind hole 35 is opened in the region of the threaded pin 11. In this case, the inlet region of this blind hole 35 forms the first tank outlet T1.

Der Ventilkolben 33 weist eine breite Ringnut 36 auf, so dass beiderseits der Ringnut 36 Ringstege 37, 38 verbleiben, die jeweils beiderseits Ablaufkanten 39, 40, 41, 42 bilden. Die einander zugewandten Ablaufkanten 40, 41 dienen dabei dem Zulauf zu einem Arbeitsanschluss A bzw. B. Die voneinander abgewandten Ablaufkanten 39, 42 bilden den Ablauf zu einem Tankabfluss T1 bzw. T2.The valve piston 33 has a wide annular groove 36, so that on both sides of the annular groove 36 annular webs 37, 38 remain, each of which forms on both sides of the discharge edges 39, 40, 41, 42. The mutually facing outlet edges 40, 41 serve the inlet to a working port A and B. The mutually remote flow edges 39, 42 form the outlet to a tank drain T1 or T2.

Der Ringnut 36 kann Motoröl über eine Querbohrung 43 zugeführt werden. Diese Querbohrung 43 ist in der Wand 44 des Rotorträgers 10 vorgesehen und bildet dabei den Speicheranschluss S. Die Querbohrung 43 kreuzt die Längsbohrung 21. Damit ist der Speicheranschluss S über die vorderste Querbohrung 19 sowohl mit dem Druckraum 24 als auch mit dem Druckanschluss P verbunden.The annular groove 36 can be supplied via a transverse bore 43 engine oil. This transverse bore 43 is provided in the wall 44 of the rotor carrier 10 and thereby forms the storage port S. The transverse bore 43 intersects the longitudinal bore 21. Thus, the storage port S is connected via the foremost transverse bore 19 both to the pressure chamber 24 and to the pressure port P.

Axial zwischen dem Ventilkolben 33 und der Trennwand 30 ist ein Raum 45 eingeschlossen, der über eine Querbohrung 46 zu dem zweiten Tankabfluss T2 führt. Dieser zweite Tankabfluss T2 liegt axial zwischen dem Zylinderkopfteil 17 und dem Schwenkmotorversteller 1. Ferner liegt dieser zweite Tankabfluss T2 axial

  • zwischen dem Speicheranschluss S einerseits und
  • den beiden Arbeitsanschlüssen A, B und dem Druckanschluss P andererseits.
Axially between the valve piston 33 and the partition wall 30, a space 45 is included, which leads via a transverse bore 46 to the second tank outlet T2. This second tank outlet T2 lies axially between the cylinder head part 17 and the Schwenkmotorversteller 1. Furthermore, this second tank outlet T2 is axially
  • between the memory port S on the one hand and
  • the two working ports A, B and the pressure port P on the other hand.

An dem Ventilkolben 33 liegt außen - d.h. vom dem Eintrittsbereich kommend - ein gestrichelt dargestellter Stößel 47 eines elektromagnetischen Linearstellgliedes an, welches ansonsten nicht näher dargestellt ist.On the valve piston 33 is on the outside -. coming from the inlet area - a dashed line shown plunger 47 of an electromagnetic linear actuator, which is otherwise not shown in detail.

Ist der Stößel 47 maximal ausgerückt, so wird das Motoröl von der Ringnut 36 kommend über der Arbeitsanschluss A in die der einen Drehrichtung zugeordneten Druckkammern des Schwenkmotorverstellers 1 geleitet. Hingegen wird das Motoröl aus den der entgegen gesetzten Drehrichtung zugeordneten Druckkammern über den Arbeitsanschluss B zum ersten Tankabfluss T1 geleitet. Dabei schwenkt der Rotor 6 mitsamt der Nockenwelle 5 gegenüber dem Stator 4 in die eine Drehrichtung.If the plunger 47 is disengaged to the maximum, the engine oil, coming from the annular groove 36, is conducted via the working port A into the pressure chambers of the swivel motor adjuster 1 associated with one direction of rotation. On the other hand, the engine oil is transferred from the pressure chambers assigned to the opposite direction of rotation the working port B to the first tank discharge T1 passed. In this case, the rotor 6 pivots together with the camshaft 5 relative to the stator 4 in the one direction of rotation.

Ist der Stößel 47 hingegen maximal eingefahren, so wird das Motoröl von der Ringnut 36 kommend über der Arbeitsanschluss B in die der anderen Drehrichtung zugeordneten Druckkammern des Schwenkmotorverstellers 1 geleitet. Zugleich wird das Motoröl aus den dieser anderen Drehrichtung entgegen gesetzten Drehrichtung zugeordneten Druckkammern über den Arbeitsanschluss A zum zweiten Tankabfluss T2 geleitet. Dabei schwenkt der Rotor 6 mitsamt der Nockenwelle 5 gegenüber dem Stator 4 in die andere Drehrichtung.If, however, the plunger 47 is retracted to the maximum, the engine oil, coming from the annular groove 36, is conducted via the working port B into the pressure chambers of the swivel motor adjuster 1 assigned to the other rotational direction. At the same time, the engine oil from the opposite direction of rotation to this opposite direction of rotation pressure chambers is passed through the working port A to the second tank outlet T2. In this case, the rotor 6 pivots together with the camshaft 5 relative to the stator 4 in the other direction of rotation.

Dabei ist das Spiel zwischen dem Ventilkolben 33 und dem Sackloch 35 so im Verhältnis zu den axialen Abständen zwischen den Arbeitsanschlüssen A,B und den Ablaufkanten 39 bis 42 dimensioniert, dass in einer mittigen Stellung des Ventilkolbens 33 Druck auf die den beiden Drehrichtungen zugeordneten Druckkammern gegeben wird. In der mittigen Stellung wird demzufolge der Hydraulikdruck mit einer leichten Überschneidung gesteuert.The play between the valve piston 33 and the blind hole 35 is dimensioned in relation to the axial distances between the working ports A, B and the trailing edges 39 to 42 that given in a central position of the valve piston 33 pressure on the two rotational directions associated pressure chambers becomes. In the central position, therefore, the hydraulic pressure is controlled with a slight overlap.

Der Hydraulikkolben 26 im Druckspeicher 20 muss nicht unbedingt eine Kolbenstange 27 aufweisen. Ist die Führungslänge des Hydraulikkolbens 26 ausreichend, kann auch der gesamte Durchmesser in dem Ring 28 für einen großen Volumenstrom genutzt werden.The hydraulic piston 26 in the pressure accumulator 20 does not necessarily have a piston rod 27. If the guide length of the hydraulic piston 26 is sufficient, the entire diameter in the ring 28 can also be used for a large volume flow.

Da die Nockenwelle eine relativ geringe Drehzahl aufweist, spielen Unwuchten eine untergeordnete Rolle. Jedoch können zur Reduktion der Unwucht die der Längsbohrung und die Querbohrungen im Nockenwelleneinsatz umfangsmäßig so verteilt sein, dass die Unwucht nur gering ist.Since the camshaft has a relatively low speed, imbalances play a minor role. However, in order to reduce the unbalance, the longitudinal bore and the transverse bores in the camshaft insert may be distributed circumferentially such that the imbalance is only slight.

Ist im Boden 32 des Ventilkolbens 33 eine Öffnung vorgesehen, so kann das Sackloch 35 auch geschlossen sein, so dass in beiden Drehrichtung die Entlastung gegen Tank nur über den einen Tankablauf T2 erfolgt, der damit den einzigen Tankablauf bildet. In dem Fall ragt der Stößel durch eine abgedichtete Öffnung im Nockenwelleneinsatz 9.If an opening is provided in the bottom 32 of the valve piston 33, the blind hole 35 can also be closed, so that in both directions the discharge takes place against the tank only via the one tank outlet T2, which thus forms the single tank outlet. In this case, the plunger protrudes through a sealed opening in the camshaft insert 9.

Der Hydraulikkolben 26 kann auch direkt in der Nockenwelle 5 geführt werden, wenn diese entsprechend der Zeichnung mit einem Hohlrohr als Grundkörper ausgeführt ist.The hydraulic piston 26 can also be performed directly in the camshaft 5, if this is carried out according to the drawing with a hollow tube as the main body.

Der Ring 28 kann auch direkt in der Nockenwelle 5 axial abgestützt sein.The ring 28 may also be axially supported directly in the camshaft 5.

Das bandförmige Rückschlagventil 50 kann auch in eine Ringnut im Nockenwelleneinsatz 9 eingesetzt sein. Damit kann verhindert werden, dass Leckageverluste an der Übergabestelle vom Lagerauge 16 zum Nockenwelleneinsatz 9 entstehen.The band-shaped check valve 50 may also be inserted into an annular groove in the camshaft insert 9. This can prevent leakage losses at the transfer point from bearing lug 16 to camshaft insert 9.

Eine mögliche Ausführungsform eines bandförmigen Rückschlagventils ist in der US 7,600,531 B2 dargestellt.A possible embodiment of a band-shaped check valve is in the US 7,600,531 B2 shown.

Bei den beschriebenen Ausführungsformen handelt es sich nur um beispielhafte Ausgestaltungen. Eine Kombination der beschriebenen Merkmale für unterschiedliche Ausführungsformen ist ebenfalls möglich. Weitere, insbesondere nicht beschriebene Merkmale der zur Erfindung gehörenden Vorrichtungsteile, sind den in den Zeichnungen dargestellten Geometrien der Vorrichtungsteile zu entnehmen.The described embodiments are only exemplary embodiments. A combination of the described features for different embodiments is also possible. Further, in particular not described features of the device parts belonging to the invention are to be taken from the geometries of the device parts shown in the drawings.
