Abstract

A device for providing a liquid additive, including at least one metallic insert, which is coated, at least in sections, with a plastic coating made of polyethylene (PE). At least one plastic structure made of a high-density polyethylene (HD-PE) or polypropylene (PP) is sprayed onto the plastic coating.

Claims (28)

1. A device for supplying a liquid additive, comprising:

a delivery unit for supplying liquid additive;

a plastics coating;

at least one metallic insert completely coated with the plastics coating;

a housing, the at least one metallic insert forming at least a part of the housing;

at least one plastics structure injection moulded onto the plastics coating such that the plastics coating is surrounded by the at least one plastics structure; and

a tank wall, the at least one plastics structure forming at least a portion of the tank wall;

wherein the delivery unit for liquid additive is located in the housing.

2. The device for supplying a liquid additive of claim 1 , further comprising a heating element, wherein the at least one metallic insert is connected to the heating element in heat-conducting fashion.

3. The device for supplying a liquid additive of claim 1 , the plastics coating further comprising a coating thickness between 50 μm and 500 μm.

4. The device for supplying a liquid additive of claim 1 , wherein the at least one metallic insert is composed of aluminium.

5. The device for supplying a liquid additive according to claim 1 , wherein the plastics coating is composed of polyethylene (PE).

6. The device for supplying a liquid additive according to claim 1 , the at least one plastics structure being made of a material selected from the group consisting of high-density polyethylene (HD-PE) and polypropylene (PP).

7. The device for supplying a liquid additive according to claim 1 , wherein the device for supplying liquid additive is used with an exhaust-gas treatment device having an SCR catalytic converter, and the SCR catalytic converter is used for the purification of exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine.

8. A device for supplying a liquid additive, comprising:

a plastics coating;

at least one inlay completely coated with the plastics coating;

at least one plastics structure moulded onto the plastics coating such that the plastics coating is surrounded by the at least one plastics structure;

a housing, the at least one plastics structure forming at least a portion of the housing;

a delivery unit for supplying liquid additive, the delivery unit for liquid additive being located in the housing;

a tank wall, the at least one plastics structure forming at least a portion of the tank wall;

wherein the housing is injection moulded around the plastics coating.

9. The device for supplying a liquid additive of claim 8 , the at least one inlay further comprising at least one metallic insert.

10. The device for supplying a liquid additive of claim 9 , wherein the at least one metallic insert is composed of aluminium.

11. The device for supplying a liquid additive of claim 8 , the plastics coating further comprising a coating thickness between 50 μm and 500 μm.

12. The device for supplying a liquid additive according to claim 8 , wherein the plastics coating is composed of polyethylene (PE).

13. The device for supplying a liquid additive according to claim 8 , the at least one plastics structure being made of a material selected from the group consisting of high-density polyethylene (HD-PE) and polypropylene (PP).

14. The device for supplying a liquid additive according to claim 8 , wherein the device for supplying liquid additive is used with an exhaust-gas treatment device having an SCR catalytic converter, and the SCR catalytic converter is used for the purification of exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine.
