  • Publication number: 20140302697
    Abstract: A method for producing a multi-pole cable connection includes disposing a plurality of contact elements in respective openings of a carrier element. A free end of each contact element protrudes from the respective openings and projects from a surface of the carrier element. The method also includes applying a flat sealing element to the carrier element so as to guide the sealing element over the free ends of the contact elements projecting from the surface of the carrier element, pressing the scaling element onto the surface of the carrier element. The method includes forming a contact of a plurality of conductors of a cable and the contact elements. The conductors are clamped onto the contact elements. The method also includes coating the contact with a potting material to form a component composite.

  • Patent number: 8757973
    Abstract: An adjusting device for adjusting the rotation angle position of the rotor of a wind energy system should be improved by the invention, whereby a complicated processing of the brake disc previously used for engagement of the drive is no longer necessary, and whereby said brake disc can be flexibly arranged in an area with sufficient construction space. For this purpose, the adjusting device has at least one force transducer wheel and/or a force transducing disc which is mounted or can be mounted on a shaft (1) of the drive train which is switched downstream from the rotor, which is structured for engagement of a force transmitting means, and is designed as an independent component. The device also has a drive means for producing a drive force, and at least one force transmission means for transmitting the drive force to the force transducer wheel and/or the force transducing disc.
