A method is provided for producing an energy supply unit for a vehicle having a housing and a stack, realized as a fuel-cell stack, battery stack or capacitor stack, arranged in the housing. The method includes providing the housing, including first and second tie-rod plates and first and second pressure-plate arrangements, wherein each pressure-plate arrangement is fastened to each tie-rod plate, arranging the stack between the two tie-rod plates and between the two pressure-plate arrangements, applying a bracing force to the two pressure-plate arrangements for the purpose of bracing the stack, and fastening at least the first pressure-plate arrangement to both tie-rod plates while the bracing force is being maintained upon the two pressure-plate arrangements. At least one pressure-plate arrangement includes a tolerance compensation system including an end plate securely connected to the tie-rod plates, a contact-pressure plate arranged between the end plate and the stack, and a positioning arrangement.

A heat exchanger for a fuel cell system, in particular in a vehicle, includes a gas section for at least one gas and one cooling fluid section for cooling the at least one gas, a housing, and a cooler matrix which is arranged in the housing and in which the cooling fluid section is configured, where the cooler matrix forms a multiplicity of cavities which produce the gas section, at least one gas inlet on the housing, at least one partition in the cooler matrix for dividing the gas section into at least two flows, with the result that the two flows can be cooled by way of the same cooling fluid section, and at least two gas outlets on the housing, where each flow opens into a dedicated gas outlet.

Heat exchanger and fuel cell system

A housing is provided for accommodating a stack of fuel cells, batteries or capacitors, including a first half-shell and a second half-shell opposite the first half-shell, a first pressure plate arrangement and a second pressure plate arrangement opposite the first pressure plate arrangement, the stack being accommodated between the two half-shells and between the two pressure plate arrangements, each half-shell gripping each pressure plate arrangement on the outer face thereof.

Housing for accommodating a stack of fuel cells, batteries or capacitors

A method for monitoring and diagnosing components of a rail vehicle, as a singular rail vehicle or as part of a rail vehicle train consisting of a plurality of rail vehicles, with regard to the necessary repair or maintenance, as appropriate, of at least one component, in which at least one measuring device captures at least one measurement variable, which is relevant to an assessment of a necessary repair or maintenance, as appropriate, of the component, is performed in which supplementation, extension, modification or adaptation of evaluation software implemented in an evaluation device is performed based on instructions, data and/or software modules sent from a control center to the evaluation device.

Method for monitoring and diagnosing components of a rail vehicle by means of an extensible evaluation software

An exhaust system is provided for a device having at least one fuel cell. The exhaust system includes at least one exhaust duct for transporting anode-side and/or cathode-side exhaust gas of the fuel cell, at least one air inlet for supplying air, at least one air feeding device for feeding in the supplied air, at least one heat exchanger for heating up the supplied air, a mixing region for mixing exhaust gas of the fuel cell transported by way of the exhaust duct with the supplied air and forming a mixed exhaust gas, and a mixed exhaust gas outlet for carrying the mixed exhaust gas away from the exhaust system.
