    Abstract: A heating element for an exhaust line includes a substantially tubular housing that defines a passage section for the exhaust gases and at least two heating discs arranged across the passage section to force the exhaust gases to pass through the at least two heating discs. A connector supports the at least two heating discs and provides an electrical connection between the at least two heating discs.

    Abstract: A base for a pressurized gas tank, such as hydrogen, is substantially circular about an axis, and comprises a substantially cylindrical pipe of axis, which passes through the base in order to connect an outside of the tank to an inside of the tank. A substantially tubular notch of axis is arranged on an inner side of the tank and is suitable for receiving a sealing envelope. A substantially tubular sleeve of axis is arranged on the inner side of the tank and has an inner diameter substantially equal to a diameter of the pipe and an outer diameter substantially equal to an inner diameter of the notch, and also has an axial extension at least equal to that of the notch. An O-ring and a groove of axis, capable of receiving the O-ring, are arranged in a side wall of the notch. The base also comprises a body and a substantially tubular ring of axis, interfaced by a surface of revolution about the axis passing through the groove.

    Abstract: A method for selecting between a first battery cell and a second battery cells includes sensing a total generated heat flow rate emitted by the first battery cell and the second battery cells. The method further includes recording, for the first and second battery cells, first and second sets of heat flow rate data related to the total generated heat flow rate emitted by the first and second battery cells, respectively, over their first charge. The method further includes comparing the first set of heat flow rate data with the second set of heat flow rate data, and selecting one of the first or second battery cells according to the comparison between the first set of heat flow rate data with the second set of heat flow rate data.

    Abstract: A process is provided for welding an assembly of a first tubular component and a second tubular component, the first and second tubular components having first and second cylindrical portions, respectively. The process uses a pressing jig, a pressing tool, a welding jig and a welding head. The process includes: positioning the first tubular component with respect to the pressing jig; clamping the first tubular component against the pressing jig; freely fitting the second cylindrical portion into the first cylindrical portion, the two cylindrical portions being substantially coaxial; placing the second component with respect to the first cylindrical portion and the pressing jig; tightening the second tubular component against the pressing jig; aligning the two fitted cylindrical portions with the pressing tool; and pressing by plastic deformation the first and second cylindrical portions. The first and second pressed tubular components form a rigid assembly, with the two fitted and pressed cylindrical portions defining a fitting and a joint. Additional steps include: positioning the rigid assembly with respect to the welding jig; clamping the rigid assembly against the welding jig; and welding by positioning and orienting the welding head repeatably with respect to the fitting and the joint, where the rigid assembly is positioned with respect to the welding jig along one or more surfaces belonging exclusively to the first component in the pressed state.
