20150053493SUBFRAME ASSEMBLY AND ASSOCIATED METHOD OF INSTALLATION - A subframe assembly for a motor vehicle includes a suspension subframe defining a void and an ancillary device of the vehicle disposed at least partially within the void. The ancillary device may be a battery assembly or a urea tank. The battery assembly may include a heat exchange system, such as a fan configured to direct air flow to the battery assembly. At least a portion of the ancillary device may be integral to the suspension subframe.02-26-2015
20150061897AID FOR INDUCTIVE BATTERY CHARGING OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - A method for assisting with the positioning of a motor vehicle for inductive charging of a battery of the motor vehicle comprises reading a number plate associated with the motor vehicle using the number plate information to produce a location on the vehicle of a vehicle inductive coupling point (VICP) with reference to at least one reference point on the motor vehicle, comparing a predicted current position of the VICP to a fixed inductive coupling point (ICP) located in or on a road surface upon which the motor vehicle is to be positioned, and providing feedback to one of the driver and the motor vehicle indicative of the required action required to produce alignment of the VICP with the ICP. The method may further comprise energising the ICP to charge the battery of the motor vehicle when the VICP is predicted to be aligned with the ICP.03-05-2015

20100151980FLYWHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ARRANGEMENT - In an energy storage and recovery system suitable for a hybrid vehicle 06-17-2010
20100152982FLYWHEEL DRIVELINE AND CONTROL ARRANGEMENT - In an energy storage and recovery system for a hybrid vehicle 06-17-2010
20100152984APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A HYBRID VEHICLE - A control unit 06-17-2010
20140130635METHOD FOR CONTROLLING AN ENGINE DRIVE BELT TENSIONER SYSTEM - Methods and systems are provided for controlling an engine drive belt tensioner system in which the engine is controlled by an engine stop-start system. When the engine stop-start system decides to stop the engine, the engine drive belt tensioner system is operated so as to increase the tension in a respective drive belt to a high level during the engine stop process. This reduces the time taken for the engine to stop and will tend to reduce any tendency for reverse rotation of the engine at the end of the stop phase.05-15-2014
20140163847METHOD OF CONTROLLING A FUEL SUPPLY SYSTEM OF AN ENGINE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - A method of controlling a fuel supply system of an engine 06-12-2014
20140191513METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR STARTING AN ENGINE - A method of starting an engine is disclosed in which two or more starter motors are used to start the engine in an alternating sequence so as to equalize wear and reduce the wear of each starter motor by a factor equal to the number of starter motors provided. The starter motors are preferably positioned so as to minimize overlap between wear patterns produced by the starter motors on a cooperating ring gear 07-10-2014

20090326790VOICE CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE WITH A STOP/START DEVICE - The invention relates to a control device for a motor vehicle having an internal combustion engine and a stop/start device, and to a method for controlling the operation of an internal combustion engine in such a motor vehicle, wherein the stop/start device is designed to switch off the internal combustion automatically when at least one stop condition is met, wherein the switching off of the internal combustion engine when the stop condition is present does not take place until after a switch off delay time has passed. The control device is designed to prevent, in reaction to a first voice command, the automatic switching off of the internal combustion engine for a predefined time period and/or until a predefined vehicle operating state criterion has been fulfilled irrespective of whether or not the stop condition was already met at the time when the voice command was issued.12-31-2009
20120191317Method and Device for Controlling the Operation of an Internal Combustion Engine - The invention relates to a device and a method for controlling the operation of an internal combustion engine in a motor vehicle, with a brake line, at least one sensor for measuring the brake line pressure in the brake line, a stop-start device for automatically switching off and starting the internal combustion engine, and an adaptive cruise control device for regulating the vehicle speed as a function of environmental information captured in a sensor-based manner, wherein a brake cylinder acting on the brake line is associated with the adaptive cruise control device and wherein the stop-start device and the adaptive cruise control device are coupled to one another in that the automatic switching-off and starting of the internal combustion engine via the stop-start device is executed directly as a function of the brake line pressure measured by the sensor.07-26-2012
20120270701METHOD FOR OPERATING AN AUTOMATIC START/STOP SYSTEM IN A VEHICLE - The disclosure relates to methods for operating an automatic start/stop system in a motor vehicle having an internal combustion engine and an automatic clutch, wherein the automatic start/stop system automatically opens the clutch as a function of propulsion requests, wherein the automatic opening of the clutch is prohibited in certain driving situations such as detected hazardous situations.10-25-2012

20080238089Coupling device for a fluid line - A coupling device for a fluid line has a collet able to be operated by an actuating sleeve. The collet possesses an annular base portion with support arms extending axially from it, on which two gripping teeth are arranged which are axially spaced apart least in part. Each gripping tooth is provided individually with its own actuating portion to be acted on by actuating faces on the actuating sleeve to cause a clamping operation.10-02-2008
20080238096Coupling device for a fluid line - A coupling device for a fluid line has a collet and an axially movable actuating sleeve serving for operation of the collet. The collet bears several gripping teeth with associated actuating portions able to be acted on by actuating faces on the actuating sleeve in order to hold the inserted fluid line. In the non-operated state of the actuating sleeve there are at least partly different distances between the mutually associated actuating portions and actuating faces so that on actuation of the actuating sleeve several actuating portions of the collet are acted on one after the other. This means that the necessary actuating force is reduced.10-02-2008
20090033090Connecting Device for a Fluid Line - A connection device for fluid lines has an annular or sleeve-shaped insert provided for assembly by plugging in a circularly cylindrical socket in a support component. The insert comprises an annular or sleeve-shaped (02-05-2009
