  • Patent number: 11309830
    Abstract: A mounting system for mounting a photovoltaic module onto at least one mounting rail. The mounting system comprises a frame for the photovoltaic module with at least one opening or protrusion at a lateral side or a bottom side of the frame, the bottom side being opposite to light incidence side of the photovoltaic module. The mounting system further comprises a plurality of mounting elements, each comprising a first portion and a second portion for securing the frame to the at least one mounting rail, the first portion defining a hook-like engagement portion to hook into the opening or the protrusion or the bottom side of the frame to provide an interlocking connection, the second portion enabling a secure fixation to the at least one mounting rail.

  • Patent number: 8651453
    Abstract: The invention relates to a valve cartridge for a solenoid valve, having a capsule, a magnetic armature that is movably guided within the capsule, a valve insert that is inserted into the capsule at a first end, and a valve body, which is pressed into a second end of the valve insert and has a main valve seat. The magnetic armature, moved by a generated magnetic force, moves a tappet guided within the valve insert. The tappet has a closing element with a sealing element which plunges into the main valve seat of the valve body in a sealing manner for carrying out a sealing function, and an associated solenoid valve. According to the invention the valve insert is configured as a one-part slotted bushing, and the valve body is configured as a bonnet-shaped bushing. The valve body configured as a bushing is pressed into a second end of the valve insert configured as a slotted bushing such that the main valve seat is disposed within the valve insert.

  • Patent number: 4801673
    Abstract: Compositions which are storable under anhydrous conditions, but when exposed to atmospheric moisture crosslink at room temperature to form elastomers comprising a diorganopolysiloxane having one Si-bonded hydroxyl group in each of its terminal units, and a cyclic silane of the formula ##STR1## where R represents a divalent hydrocarbon radical, R.sup.1 represents the same or different monovalent hydrocarbon radicals, which can be substituted by an alkoxy group, and R.sup.2 represents hydrogen or an alkyl or aminoalkyl radical in which the silicon atom of the cyclic silane is bonded to a nitrogen atom and to two monovalent hydrocarbon radicals, which can be substituted with an alkoxy group via oxygen and to a hydrocarbon radical via carbon.
