  • Patent number: 12406821
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a high voltage bypass device, comprising a cavity, a trigger element arranged in the cavity, a reservoir filled with a conductive, flowable material, and a shutter separating the cavity and the reservoir. The trigger element is connected to a first terminal and a second terminal of the high voltage bypass device. The shutter is configured to open a passage between the cavity and the reservoir in case the trigger element is triggered by an overvoltage condition, such that the conductive, flowable material at least partially fills the cavity, thereby forming a conductive path from the first terminal to the second terminal. The present disclosure further relates to a voltage source converter (VSC), in particular a modular multi-cell converter, and an operating method for a high voltage bypass device.

  • Patent number: 11602914
    Abstract: A method for pressing bales of material in a baler is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of feeding the material into the baler through an inlet, pre-compressing the material under a number of compressing cycles by a first press, transporting the pre-compressed material by a transport unit into a second press, and compressing the pre-compressed material by the second press into a finished bale of compressed material. The step of transporting the pre-compressed material by a transport unit into a second press is conducted in a space of the baler, such that an undesirable expansion of the pre-compressed material can be prevented. A baler for pressing bales of material is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11476658
    Abstract: A first converter station is part of a high voltage direct current transmission system that includes a DC transmission link connected to the first converter station a second converter station. A DC current and a DC voltage of the DC transmission link are sensed by the first converter station. It is determined that the sensed DC current is equal to or larger than a threshold current value, that the sensed DC current is equal to or larger than the threshold current value, and that at least a partial recovery of the sensed DC voltage has occurred. On the basis that it is determined that the at least a partial recovery of the sensed DC voltage has occurred, it is determined that a phase-to-ground fault has occurred. In response to determining that a phase-to-ground fault has occurred, a power delivered by the first converter station can be reduced.
