Abstract: A boil-off management system for a cryotank includes a boil-off conduit which is fluidically connectable to a cryotank via a boil-off valve. The boil-off management system further includes an air feed conduit and a mixing chamber for mixing a first medium (e.g., hydrogen) flowing in through the boil-off conduit with a second medium (e.g., air and/or oxygen) flowing in through the air feed conduit. A catalytic converter is arranged downstream of the mixing chamber and an outlet downstream of the catalytic converter. At least one enrichment apparatus is provided and configured to temporarily increase the proportion of the first medium flowing in through the boil-off conduit in relation to the second medium flowing in through the air feed conduit at the catalytic converter.

Abstract: A tank device for a motor vehicle includes a tank container defined by a tank wall having at least one stop region, and at least one lever sensor arranged in the interior of the tank container. The at least one stop region is an end stop for the lever sensor to prevent adhesion of the lever sensor to the tank wall.

Abstract: A tank that includes a tank wall composed of a plastic material, and at least one reinforcing profile member configured to minimize deformation of the plastic tank. The at least one reinforcing profile member is configured for arrangement on an outer side of the tank wall to be engaged by the tank wall and establish a positive material bond connection therewith. The at least one reinforcing profile member has a retaining geometry region with a plurality of openings through and/or into which material of the tank wall extends and onto a rear side of the reinforcing profile member facing away from the tank wall to thereby establish the positive material bond connection between the tank wall and the at least one reinforcing profile member at the retaining geometry region.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for setting up two sensor systems for monitoring the state of wear of a chain, which method comprises the steps: first positioning of the first sensor system relative to a calibration object, first positioning of the second sensor system relative to the calibration object, carrying out a first signal detection using the first sensor system, carrying out a first signal detection using the second sensor system, wherein the first signal detection using the first sensor system takes place at the same time as the first signal detection of the second sensor system.

Abstract: A process for manufacturing a plastic tank for a motor vehicle. The process includes inserting at least one stiffening profile into a shell mould having walls. The at least one stiffening profile is configured to minimise undesirable deformation of the plastic tank. The process also includes applying a negative pressure to simultaneously maintain a position of each stiffening profile in the shell mould, form a tank wall by facilitating flow of plastic material onto the walls of the shell mould, and form a form-fitting connection between the tank wall and each stiffening profile by facilitating flow of the plastic material around the stiffening profile.
