A noise reduction device for a negative pressure line of a brake booster is provided. The improved noise reduction device is disposed in a vacuum hose, and includes a negative pressure line of a vehicle in which a brake booster and a surge tank of an engine are connected via the vacuum hose to use negative pressure of the surge tank. In particular, noise caused by pulsation of an air flow and vibration of a valve which occur due to an operation of an engine piston is reduced.

A valve unit (1) for modulating pressure in a compressed air braking system includes a brake pressure input (3), a brake pressure output (4), and a purge output (5), an inlet valve (6) and an outlet valve (7), both configured as a diaphragm valve, and respective precontrol valves (8, 9), which are each configured as a 3/2-way solenoid valve. For effective sound damping of the compressed air emerging into the environment when the outlet valve (7) is open, the valve unit (1) at the purge output (5) has a silencer (75) with a largely cylindrical silencer housing (76) with an inlet opening (77), a calming chamber (78), a large outlet opening (79) and a silencer insert (80.1) arranged upstream of the outlet opening (79) inside the silencer housing (76). The silencer is air-permeable and sound-deadening and attached to the base housing (11) with base walls (83, 84).

A pneumatic valve apparatus for a compressed air device, including: a pneumatic solenoid valve having a housing body with a supply channel, a consumer channel and a vent channel, wherein the housing body surrounds a valve chamber, in which a valve body can be moved along a valve axis counter to the force of a valve spring by an actuator relative to a vent valve seat leading to the vent channel and relative to a supply valve seat leading to the supply channel, wherein in a first position, the valve body opens the valve chamber and the vent valve seat leading to a vent channel, and, in a second position, opens a supply channel leading to the supply valve seat and the valve chamber, wherein the housing body comprises a diffuser, which adjoins the vent valve seat leading to the vent channel.

Noise attenuation units are disclosed that are connectable in a system as part of a fluid flow path. Such units include a housing defining an internal cavity and having a first port and a second port each connectable to a fluid flow path and in fluid communication with one another through the internal cavity, and a noise attenuating member seated in the internal cavity of the housing within the flow of the fluid communication between the first port and the second port. The noise attenuating member enables the fluid communication between the first port and the second port to flow through the noise attenuating member.

An air dryer includes a supporting base, a drying agent container, and an outer cover. The supporting base includes an inlet for receiving compressed air to be subject to a drying process and an outlet for delivering the processed compressed air that has undergone the drying process. The drying agent container is a container supported on the supporting base, contains a drying agent in the interior, and enables the drying process to be performed by passing the compressed air from the inlet through the drying agent. The outer cover surrounds the outer side of the drying agent container on the supporting base and defines a chamber for storing the compressed air between itself and the drying agent container. The supporting base includes first and second mounting surfaces, which are oriented in different directions, and a plurality of inlets, which are oriented in different directions and receive the compressed air.
