Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A cylindrical pin of a valve control lever has an outer side wall, a first end wall and a second end wall and includes a blind bore that extends from a blind bore opening in the first end wall to an inner surface of the second end wall, the inner surface forming a blind bore base, the blind bore base including at least one through opening.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A cylindrical pin of a valve control lever comprising an outer side wall, a first end wall and a second end wall and including a blind bore that extends from a blind bore opening in the first end wall to an inner surface of the second end wall, the inner surface forming a blind bore base, wherein the blind bore base includes at least one through opening, wherein at least one closure element is mounted in the at least one through opening, and wherein the at least one closure element is made from copper. 2. The cylindrical pin according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one through opening has a smaller diameter than a diameter of the blind bore opening. 3. The cylindrical pin according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one closure element is formed from a material that is softer than a material of the cylindrical pin. 4. The cylindrical pin according to claim 1 , wherein the outer side wall is hardened and/or coated. 5. The cylindrical pin according to claim 1 , wherein the outer side wall includes at least two through bores configured to allow a lubricant to enter and exit an interior of the pin. 6. A cylindrical pin of a valve control lever comprising an outer side wall, a first end wall and a second end wall and including a blind bore that extends from a blind bore opening in the first end wall to an inner surface of the second end wall, the inner surface forming a blind bore base, wherein the blind bore base includes at least one through opening; wherein the at least one through opening has a smaller diameter than a diameter of the blind bore opening, including at least one copper closure element mounted in the at least one through opening, wherein the outer side wall is hardened and/or coated, and wherein the outer side wall includes at least two through bores configured to allow a lubricant to enter and exit an interior of the pin. 7. A cylindrical pin of a valve control lever comprising: an outer side wall, a first end wall; a second end wall; a bore having a first diameter extending into the cylindrical pin from the first end wall and having a bore bottom between the first end wall and the second end wall; a through opening in the bore bottom, the through opening having a second diameter less than the first diameter; and a closure element mounted in in the through opening, wherein the closure element is made from copper. 8. The cylindrical pin according to claim 7 , wherein the closure element is formed from a material that is softer than a material of the cylindrical pin. 9. The cylindrical pin according to claim 7 , wherein the outer side wall is hardened or coated. 10. The cylindrical pin according to claim 7 , wherein the outer side wall includes at least two through bores configured to allow a lubricant to enter and exit an interior of the pin.
