  • Anti-pinch method for an apparatus for automatic movement of sliding windows in a motor vehicle, in particular a power-window apparatus, and corresponding device
    Patent number: 11655661
    Abstract: An anti-pinch method for an apparatus for automatic movement of sliding windows including the steps of: receiving at least one electrical quantity (ea, ia) of the motor (M); counting (Rc) oscillation periods (Rd) of the at least one electrical quantity (ea, ia); calculating an angular position (?(t)) of the motor (M) as a function of the number of periods (Rc) of the electrical quantity (ea, ia); calculating a position of the window (F) as a function of said angular position (?(t)) of the motor (M); and reversing the direction of rotation of the motor (M) if the position of the window (F) falls within an anti-pinch zone (APZ) and the movement of the motor (M) is at least partially blocked.
