  • Publication number: 20250219827
    Abstract: There is provided techniques for self-revocation. A method is performed by a TC node (200a). The TC node (200a) is provided with an identifier and DAA credentials. The TC node (200a) is to receive a heartbeat message from an RA node (300). The heartbeat message comprises a freshness parameter and a revocation request with a list of identifiers for which revocation is pending. The method comprises revoking (S106a, S106b) the DAA credentials when either: the heartbeat message is received from the RA node (300) whilst a counter condition is satisfied, correctness of the freshness parameter is verified by the TC node (200a), and the identifier is present in the list of identifiers; or failing to receive the heartbeat message from the RA node (300) whilst the counter condition is satisfied.

  • Patent number: 11958000
    Abstract: A filter element has a first follower element with a first traction surface and a second follower element with a second traction surface provided for interacting with first and second mating surfaces of the filter housing, respectively. The first and second traction surfaces interact with the first and second mating surfaces to pull out the filter element from the filter housing. The first and second traction surfaces are spaced apart from each other along a longitudinal axis of the filter element and project radially into the interior of the filter element. At least one of the first and second follower elements has a stop surface adjoining circumferentially the respective traction surface. In a position of use, the stop surface interacts with a counter stop surface of the filter housing to form an at least unidirectional rotational degree of freedom blocking about the longitudinal axis relative to the filter housing.

  • Patent number: 10668410
    Abstract: A fuel filter has a filter housing and a fuel filter insert exchangeably arranged in the filter housing and provided with a prefilter element and a main filter element. Prefilter element and main filter element are positioned one behind the other in the filter housing in axial direction of the filter housing. A fuel discharge channel is arranged in the filter housing below the fuel filter insert. In operating position of the fuel filter insert in the filter housing, the raw sides of prefilter element and of main filter element are sealed relative to the fuel discharge channel by seal-tight contact of the fuel filter insert on the filter housing. The raw side of the main filter element, when the fuel filter insert is moved by axial movement away from the operating position, is fluidically connected with the fuel discharge channel via the raw side of the prefilter element.

  • Patent number: 10614053
    Abstract: In some examples, a system comprises a nuclear event detector (NED) to issue a nuclear event status signal, a primary power supply to issue a power status signal, a backup power supply, a non-volatile storage, and a processor coupled to the non-volatile storage and the NED and switchably coupled to the primary and backup power supplies. The processor is to store a state of the processor to the non-volatile storage based on the nuclear event status signal, and the processor is to selectively receive power from either the primary power supply or the backup power supply based on the nuclear event status signal and the power status signal.
