Abstract: A method for defining authentication data of a user at an energy conversion device connected to a grid and a source via a network connection includes receiving at the energy conversion device, via the network connection, a request from the user to newly assign authentication data, receiving at the energy conversion device desired authentication data of the user via the network connection, and storing the desired authentication data in the energy conversion device for an authentication of the user in the event of subsequent attempts to access the energy conversion device, when the energy conversion device is disconnected from the connected grid within a first predefined time window after receiving the request.

Abstract: The invention relates to a valve for controlling a fluid flow, comprising at least one valve housing having at least one inlet and one outlet side, and a valve insert for regulating the fluid flow between the inlet side and the outlet side, which valve is arranged within the valve housing. The valve insert comprises at least one first element, designed as a hollow body, and a second element, wherein the second element is arranged within the first hollow-body-shaped element. Furthermore, the valve insert is arranged within the valve housing in such a way that the first element is axially fixed in the valve housing, and the second element is arranged so as to be rotationally fixed in the valve housing. The first element has at least one opening along the circumference of the first element for passing the fluid flow through and is designed to be rotatable relative to the second element; the second element is designed to be axially movable relative to the first element.

Abstract: A method for locking a connection between a connector and a mating connector arranged on an electric vehicle is disclosed. The connector is arranged on a charging cable connected to a charging post of a charging station, such as a charging cable fixedly connected to a charging post of a charging station. The connector is associated with a first locking element, and the mating connector is associated with a second locking element, wherein the first locking element and the second locking element cooperate to lock the connection between the connector and the mating connector, and each have an activated state and a deactivated state. The method includes operating the first locking element associated with the connector in an activated state in a first operating mode of the charging station to lock the connection between the connector and the mating connector when the second locking element associated with the mating connector is activated.

Abstract: The power density distribution of a photovoltaic generator of planar extent is determined by measuring an electrical power generated by the photovoltaic generator. Temporal profiles of the measured power with respect to shadow edges migrating across the photovoltaic generator are evaluated taking account of edge direction and edge transverse speed of the respective shadow edge. The power density distribution is reconstructed from the evaluated temporal profiles for different edge directions.
