Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An actuation device ( 1 ), in particular electronic actuator, having a housing ( 2 ); and having an actuation shank which has a first shank portion guided in the housing ( 2 ), and which has a second shank portion ( 3 ) projecting out of the housing ( 2 ), wherein a shielding cap ( 4 ) is provided which is fastened to the housing ( 2 ) and which surrounds the second shank portion ( 3 ) with the exception of a fastening region ( 5 ).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An electronic actuation device ( 1 ) having a housing ( 2 ); and an actuation shank, which has a first shank portion guided in the housing ( 2 ) and a second shank portion ( 3 ) projecting out of the housing ( 2 ), wherein a shielding cap ( 4 ) is provided which is fastened to the housing ( 2 ) and which at least partially surrounds the second shank portion ( 3 ) with the exception of a fastening region ( 5 ), wherein the shielding cap ( 4 ) has cooling and water outlet bores ( 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ). 2. The electronic actuation device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the shielding cap ( 4 ) has two interconnected first and second cylinder portions ( 6 , 7 ) with different diameters (D 1 , D 2 ). 3. The electronic actuation device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a flanged portion ( 13 ) is arranged around an end-side opening ( 14 ) of the second cylinder portion ( 7 ). 4. The electronic actuation device as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the flanged portion ( 13 ) is provided with openings ( 15 , 16 , 17 ). 5. The electronic actuation device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the shielding cap ( 4 ) is screwed to the housing ( 2 ). 6. The electronic actuation device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the fastening portion ( 5 ) is connected via a redirecting device ( 20 ) to a coupling rod ( 26 ). 7. The electronic actuation device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the actuation shank is produced from plastic or metal. 8. An electronic actuation device ( 1 ) having a housing ( 2 ); and an actuation shank, which has a first shank portion guided in the housing ( 2 ) and a second shank portion ( 3 ) projecting out of the housing ( 2 ), wherein a shielding cap ( 4 ) is provided which is fastened to the housing ( 2 ) and which partially surrounds the second shank portion ( 3 ) with the exception of a fastening region ( 5 ), the shielding cap ( 4 ) has two interconnected first and second cylinder portions ( 6 , 7 ) with different diameters (D 1 , D 2 ), and a twist prevention means ( 12 ) is formed as an opening in the second cylinder portion ( 7 ). 9. The electronic actuation device as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the shielding cap ( 4 ) has cooling and water outlet bores ( 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ). 10. An exhaust-gas turbocharger ( 30 ) having an electronic actuation device ( 1 ) which has a housing ( 2 ) and an actuation shank which has a first shank portion guided in the housing ( 2 ) and a second shank portion ( 3 ) projecting out of the housing ( 2 ), wherein a shielding cap ( 4 ) is provided which is fastened to the housing ( 2 ) and which at least partially surrounds the second shank portion ( 3 ) with the exception of a fastening region ( 5 ), wherein the shielding cap ( 4 ) has cooling and water outlet bores ( 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ). 11. The exhaust-gas turbocharger as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the shielding cap ( 4 ) has two interconnected first and second cylinder portions ( 6 , 7 ) with different diameters (D 1 , D 2 ). 12. The exhaust-gas turbocharger as claimed in claim 11 , wherein a flanged portion ( 13 ) is arranged around an end-side opening ( 14 ) of the second cylinder portion ( 7 ). 13. The exhaust-gas turbocharger as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the flanged portion ( 13 ) is provided with openings ( 15 , 16 , 17 ). 14. The exhaust-gas turbocharger as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the shielding cap ( 4 ) is screwed to the housing ( 2 ). 15. The exhaust-gas turbocharger as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the fastening portion ( 5 ) is connected via a redirecting device ( 20 ) to a coupling rod ( 26 ). 16. The exhaust-gas turbocharger as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the actuation shank is produced from plastic or metal. 17. An exhaust-gas turbocharger ( 30 ) having an electronic actuation device ( 1 ) which has a housing ( 2 ) and an actuation shank which has a first shank portion guided in the housing ( 2 ) and a second shank portion ( 3 ) projecting out of the housing ( 2 ), wherein a shielding cap ( 4 ) is provided which is fastened to the housing ( 2 ) and which partially surrounds the second shank portion ( 3 ) with the exception of a fastening region ( 5 ), wherein the shielding cap ( 4 ) has two interconnected first and second cylinder portions ( 6 , 7 ) with different diameters (D 1 , D 2 ), and wherein a twist prevention means ( 12 ) is formed as an opening in the second cylinder portion ( 7 ). 18. The exhaust-gas turbocharger as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the shielding cap ( 4 ) has cooling and water outlet bores ( 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ).
