  • Patent number: 11459001
    Abstract: A level control system for a vehicle, in particular a rail vehicle, includes at least one level control cylinder and one level control piston, the level control piston being movably guided in the level control cylinder in order to adjust the level of the rail vehicle, the level control piston having an outer piston sleeve and a piston main body at least partially accommodated in the piston sleeve, and the piston main body being slidable relative to the piston sleeve for wear readjustment and being lockable and/or fixable in at least two adjustment positions.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11420657
    Abstract: A levelling system for a vehicle, in particular a rail vehicle, includes at least one levelling cylinder and a levelling piston. The levelling piston is at least partially provided in the levelling cylinder in a movable manner for setting the level of the rail vehicle. Further, the levelling system includes at least one guiding element, which is arranged within the levelling piston and partially protrudes from the levelling piston into at least one recess of the levelling cylinder such that an end stop in a longitudinal direction is provided for the relative movement between the levelling piston and the levelling cylinder.

  • Patent number: 6580004
    Abstract: A process for preparing potassium monoethyl malonate by selective saponification of malonic acid diethyl ester with potassium hydroxide, in which the potassium hydroxide is added to the malonic acid diethyl ester, malonic acid diethyl ester and potassium hydroxide are used in a molar ratio of at least 1.5 and the potassium hydroxide is effectively distributed into the malonic acid diethyl ester.

  • Patent number: 6333429
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing alkali metal salts of malonic monoalkyl esters by selective saponification of malonic dialkyl esters using a basic alkali metal compound which comprises preparing from the malonic dialkyl ester and an alkali metal alkoxide, in a first stage, a CH-acid alkali metal salt of the malonic dialkyl ester and hydrolyzing this in a second stage by the action of water.
