Publication number: 20240115600Abstract: The invention enables direct oral granules enabling controlled release of magnesium, having both extended-release and non-extended-release fractions. The granules include extended-release particles having a magnesium-containing core and a lipophilic coating, with at least the cores of these extended-release particles having a mandated abrasion resistance which is determined by means of vibration screening over a period of 60 minutes and which allows these cores to be melt-coated, more particularly melt-coated with lipids in a fluidized bed. The invention further provides a method for characterizing the magnesium-containing cores, and also a process for producing the extended-release particles by means of hotmelt coating.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2022Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Gerd WEISS, Josef HAALA, Wolfgang SCHIEMENZ

Patent number: 10366852Abstract: A power relay for a vehicle is disclosed. The power relay has a housing formed by a connector base and a housing can set thereon, two connection bolts being inserted into the connector base for contacting a load circuit. The power relay further has a coil subassembly arranged in the housing and containing a solenoid coil and an armature. The armature is coupled by a force-transmission member to a contact bridge and can shift in the housing, under the effect of a magnetic field generated by the solenoid coil, in such a way that the contact bridge can be reversibly moved between a closing position, in which the contact bridge bridges the connection bolts in an electro conducting manner, and an opening position, in which the contact bridge is not in contact with the connection bolts. The housing can is configured as an injection-molded component made of plastic.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2016Date of Patent: July 30, 2019Assignee: Ellenberger & Poensgen GmbHInventors: Markus Birner, Manuel Engewald, Ricardo Pimenta, Helmut Kraus, Wolfgang Weiss, Matthias Schwarz, Sebastian Rothmayr, Thomas Singer

Patent number: 7124040Abstract: In a method of monitoring a fuel cell unit, at least one pair of measured values, including a measured current value and a measured voltage value (Iactual, Uactual) are determined at the outputs of the fuel cell unit. The measured voltage value (Uactual) is compared with a limit value (PG), which is a function of the measured current value (Iactual) by way of a limit characteristic polarization curve. It is concluded that the condition of the fuel cell unit is faulty when the measured voltage value (Uactual) or a function of the measured voltage value is smaller than or equal to a predefined threshold value.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2004Date of Patent: October 17, 2006Assignee: DaimlerChrysler AGInventors: Thorsten Engelhardt, Richard Fosmoe, Wolfgang Weiss
