20080208413 | Safety System For Vehicle Occupants - The present invention relates to a safety system for occupants of a vehicle | 08-28-2008 |
20090152831 | HITCHING DEVICE WITH STABILIZER FOR AVOIDING AND/OR DAMPING ROLLING MOTIONS BETWEEN A TRACTION VEHICLE AND A TRAILER COUPLED TO THIS TRACTION VEHICLE - The invention is based on a hitching device with a stabilizer for avoiding and/or damping rolling motions between a traction vehicle and a trailer coupled to it. The stabilizer is equipped with a friction clutch, which affects the friction conditions between a trailer hitch on the end toward the traction vehicle and a coupling element on the end toward the trailer. According to the invention, the stabilizer is provided with an externally triggerable electric motor and a gear acted upon by the electric motor be used for actuating the fiction clutch. The gear is self-locking in the release direction of the stabilizer. | 06-18-2009 |
20100114444 | BRAKE SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE - The invention relates to a braking system ( | 05-06-2010 |
20110146395 | CONNECTING ELEMENT FOR MEASURING AN ACTUATING FORCE OF A VEHICLE BRAKE SYSTEM - The invention relates to a connecting element connecting a brake pedal to a brake force amplifier of a vehicle brake system. The invention proposes to dispose a helical compression spring as a first spring element and a rubbery-elastic reaction disk as a second spring element between a pedal rod and a piston rod of the connecting element, the spring elements being installed in series due to the arrangement thereof Due to the higher spring rate of the reaction disk preferably increasing with load, the connecting element has a progressive spring characteristic line. According to the invention, as soon as the pedal rod contacts the reaction disk the helical compression spring and the reaction disk act in parallel and serially such that the progression of the total spring characteristic line further increases. | 06-23-2011 |
20110232407 | HELICAL GEARING - The invention relates to helical gearing having a spindle and a counterpart, which engages on a thread of the spindle. The counterpart is, for example, tube-shaped, encloses the spindle concentrically, and has rollers on the inside of the counterpart which roll on thread flanks of the thread. By rotation of the spindle, the counterpart is driven like the nut of a spindle drive. The thread of the helical gearing according to the invention is provided with a changing pitch and thus a changing gear ratio. | 09-29-2011 |
20120192556 | Hydraulic Main Brake Cylinder - A hydraulic main brake cylinder, preferably having an electro-mechanical brake booster for a brake assembly of a vehicle is disclosed. The main brake cylinder is provided with two pressure rod pistons, preferably nesting within each other, one of which is actuated by muscle power, and the other one is actuated by the brake booster. Furthermore, an energy store is provided, which stores energy when the main brake cylinder is released and then transferred to the main brake cylinder upon the actuation thereof, thus supporting the operation of the main brake cylinder. | 08-02-2012 |
20120200009 | Method for Producing a Spindle for a Spindle Drive, a Roller Screw Drive comprising such a Spindle and Use of said Roller Screw Drive - The disclosure relates to a threaded shaft for a roller screw drive, for example for an electromechanical brake booster or an electromechanical power steering system. According to the disclosure, a helical coil with a flat, square-threaded annular cross-section is arranged on a thin-walled pipe, the pipe being formed onto a root region of the helical coil by the application of high pressure from the inside of the pipe. | 08-09-2012 |
20150283983 | METHOD FOR BRAKING A VEHICLE AND A BRAKING SYSTEM USING THE METHOD - A method for braking a vehicle, a braking intervention being performed on at least one wheel of the vehicle, a total brake force for the braking intervention being generated by a hydraulic unit in the vehicle on the one hand, and, on the other hand, by at least one electric motor assigned to the one wheel, which at all times supports the brake force generated by the hydraulic unit, the total brake force being generated by modulating a brake force generated by the hydraulic unit and by modulation of the brake force generated by the electric motor on the at least one wheel, the brake force of the hydraulic unit and the brake force of the electric motor being added to yield the total brake force, and an amount of the particular brake force being controlled by a controller as a function of a driving situation of the vehicle. | 10-08-2015 |
