  • Electrolysis system and operation method therefor
    Patent number: 12577692
    Abstract: An electrolysis system includes an electrolyzer and a conversion device for power supply of the electrolyzer out of a grid is disclosed. The electrolyzer includes a plurality of electrolysis cells connected in series to each other. The series connection of electrolysis cells is connected through a positive DC-line and through a negative DC-line to a DC-output of the conversion device. A conscious grounding of the series connection is provided via a grounding line at a connection point of the positive DC-line, at a connection point of the negative DC-line or at a connection point of an intermediate power line between two adjacent electrolysis cells.

  • Device for adjusting control times in a control device
    Patent number: 5261360
    Abstract: A device for adjusting the control times on a control drive of an internal combustion engine, with a gear by the crankshaft of the internal combustion engine, the gear being located on a camshaft for actuating the gas shuttle valve, for which the camshaft can be adjusted relative to the gear over a limited range of angles of rotation. To achieve simple construction, the camshaft can be freely twisted relative to the gear over at least one specific angle of twist in both directions of rotation, and the camshaft is coupled to the gear.
