  • Patent number: 11148316
    Abstract: A method for aligning a cutter plate in a pelletizer for polymer pellets using a remote alignment adjustment device having a mechanical distance measurement probe and a camera for taking photos or videos. The remote alignment adjustment device is attached to the drive shaft of the cutter plate and rotates with the shaft to correct the alignment in different positions of the die plate. Additionally, a process for preparing polyethylene pellets in a pelletizer using the method for aligning the cutter plate.

  • Publication number: 20180331532
    Abstract: An alternating current circuit breaker has a series circuit of bipolar switching modules which are inserted in series into a phase line of an alternating current line. Each switching module has an energy storage device and actuatable power semiconductors that can be activated and deactivated. Each switching module can be driven such that a switching module voltage that corresponds to a positive or negative energy storage device voltage or a zero voltage can be generated at the poles of the switching module. A controller is configured to actuate the switching modules based on a polarity change of a phase current such that the switching module voltage switches polarity, wherein a switching module voltage opposite the phase voltage can be generated. A method for switching alternating currents is effected with the alternating current circuit breaker.

  • Patent number: 9861009
    Abstract: A valve-type arrester includes a heat sink for dissipating heat from the interior of the valve-type arrester into the surroundings of the valve-type arrester. The heat sink has a circular-cylindrical main body with a base surface, a top surface parallel to the base surface and a casing surface connecting the base surface and the top surface. The heat sink additionally has a plurality of fins disposed on the main body, in which each fin is formed in the shape of a sheet or a leaf and disposed on the casing surface of the main body.
