Abstract: An actuator having an electromechanical drive and a housing is provided. The driving torque provided by an electric motor is transmitted by gear train to two actuator outputs connected to two parts of a stabilizer. The gear train is an eccentric gear train, the drive shaft of which is driven by the electric motor. An overall eccentric driven by the drive shaft has on its circumference a drive gear having a first outer profile and a second outer profile different therefrom. In the operating state the drive gear first outer profile is connected to a first inner profile of a first one of the outputs and the drive gear second outer profile is connected to a second inner profile of the second one of the outputs, and the connection can be eliminated by changing the eccentricity of the eccentric such that both outputs can rotate freely relative to each other.

Abstract: An assembly with flanges is provided. The flanges are used for welding onto a pipe end of a pipe for a pressure-bearing flange connection of two pipe ends, wherein the flange extends in a circumferential direction about a central axis of the pipe and has a first end face in the axial direction of the pipe end, wherein the first end face has a sealing groove extending in the circumferential direction, which sealing groove divides the end face into a radially inner inside surface and a radially outer outside surface. In order to avoid rework, the inside surface is axially recessed by a recess on average relative to the outside surface. An adaptation ring or an assembly having a flange or adaptation ring is also provided.

Alternatively, in a damping element not having a coupling part, c) resilient elements are integrated in third coupling elements, and the coupling elements are connected to the first and second elements.
