Aspects of the present invention relate to an apparatus comprising at least two chambers, each chamber comprising at least one wall defining the chamber, a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet through the wall of the chamber and an opening separate from the fluid inlet and fluid outlet. The fluid inlet and fluid outlet are configured such that a fluid enters the chamber via the fluid inlet and exits via the fluid outlet. A gas enters the chamber via the fluid inlet and exits the chamber via the opening, wherein the opening of each of the chambers is fluidly connected to a common fluid reservoir. The apparatus may be used for degassing multiple coolant circuits in a vehicle.

An equalizing tank for a cooling circuit of a motor of a motor vehicle has a tank top piece, on which an inlet line for a coolant is arranged, and a tank bottom piece, on which an outlet line for the coolant is arranged. The inlet line for the coolant is configured as a separate structural unit from the tank top piece, having an outlet opening situated in the region of the tank bottom piece.

A two-stroke engine comprises a first oiling system and a second oiling system. The first oiling system includes a low-pressure pump that distributes oil from a first oil tank to the two-stroke engine. The second oiling system includes a pump mechanically coupled to a crankshaft of the two-stroke engine, wherein the pump distributes oil from a second oil tank to an accessory at a pressure greater than the first oil pressure, wherein oil distributed to the accessory is returned to the second oil tank.

A motor for driving a liquid end of a pump system. The motor having an inner housing having an outer surface, a mechanical actuator disposed in the inner housing, and a water jacket surrounding at least a portion of the outer surface of the inner housing to define a volume between the inner housing and the water jacket. The volume being sized to circulate water within the water jacket so as to transfer heat from the inner housing to the water.

A fluid adjusting device includes a reservoir, at least two connection channels, at least two supply channels and at least one one-way valve, the reservoir is provided with a fluid storage cavity and at least two fluid outlets in communication with the fluid storage cavity, and the fluid storage cavity is configured to store a cooling fluid; the at least two connection channels can be connected to at least two circulation circuits respectively; the at least two fluid outlets are in communication with the at least two connection channels by means of the at least two supply channels respectively; and the at least one one-way valve is arranged in at least one of the at least two supply channels, and is configured to enable a fluid to flow from the reservoir to the corresponding connection channel in unidirectional manner. The fluid adjusting device can accurately control temperatures.

the second chamber (20) being located above the first chamber (10) and the second outlet (13) extending through the second chamber (20) to the level of the fourth outlet (23). The invention also relates to a fluid transfer circuit comprising at least one such device (1) as well as a method for using such a device (1).

This disclosure pertains to a device for removing air from a coolant liquid of a coolant system. The device has a body, a swirl pot having a first fluid outlet, and a pump end wall formed with the body and connected to the first fluid outlet. The pump end wall provides a second fluid outlet.

A coolant supply module includes a reservoir tank configured to store a coolant, a main body connected to the reservoir tank so that the coolant stored in the reservoir tank flows, at least one pump mounting portion formed in the main body so that at least one water pump is mounted, a valve mounting portion formed in the main body between the at least one pump mounting portion so that a valve device is mounted, and a controller mounted in the main body and electrically connected to the at least one water pump, wherein the main body includes a branch portion allowing a portion of a coolant introduced into one of the at least one pump mounting portion to flow into another pump mounting portion.

A connecting apparatus (interface) for connecting a component to a further component includes at least one electrical connecting device for producing an electrical connection and at least one hydraulic connecting device for producing a hydraulic connection. The connecting apparatus is configured in such a way that an electrical connection and a hydraulic connection of the connecting apparatus to a component can be produced simultaneously.

Methods and systems are provided for a cooling system. In one example, a system comprising a housing comprising a first chamber fluidly coupled to a first cooling circuit and a second chamber fluidly coupled to a second cooling circuit. A reservoir is arranged vertically above each of the first chamber and the second chamber within the housing. A transverse wall fluidly separates the reservoir from the first and second chambers and a dividing wall physically coupled to the transverse wall, separates the first and second chambers from one another. Each of the transverse wall, dividing wall, first chamber, and the second chamber are arranged vertically below a minimum fill line of the reservoir.
