Patent number: 9520786Abstract: A regulating device for a multi-phase voltage converter includes a connecting element for picking-off an input/output voltage signal at a power path of the multi-phase voltage converter, and a filter, which is configured and coupled to the connecting element so as to cause the filter to output a filter output signal, which correlates to the ripple of the input/output voltage signal. A correcting unit is configured and connected to the filter and to the multi-phase voltage converter such that, owing to the correcting unit, an actuating signal is output to the multi-phase voltage converter, which actuating signal generates a change in the ripple of the input/output voltage signal.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 2009Date of Patent: December 13, 2016Assignee: Bayerische Motoren Werke AktiengesellschaftInventors: Tomas Reiter, Dieter Polenov, Hartmut Proebstle

Patent number: 8415823Abstract: A vehicle energy supply system includes a first branch of the vehicle's electrical system, a second branch of the vehicle's electrical system, and an energy transfer device that couples together the first branch of the vehicle's electrical system and the second branch of the vehicle's electrical system. The energy transfer device is designed in such a manner that energy is drawn from the alternating component of the voltage in the first branch of the vehicle's electrical system by the energy transfer device and is then fed to the second branch of the vehicle's electrical system.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2009Date of Patent: April 9, 2013Assignee: Bayerische Motoren Werke AktiengesellschaftInventors: Dieter Polenov, Hartmut Proebstle, Tomas Reiter

Patent number: 8324754Abstract: A system is provided for supplying voltage to electrical loads in the onboard electrical system of a motor vehicle, in which system the onboard electrical system includes at least two onboard electrical system regions. The first onboard electrical system region has an electric generator, a vehicle battery, and one or more first electrical loads, and the second onboard electrical system region has a double-layer capacitor or a so-called supercap, and one or more second electrical loads. A blocking apparatus, in particular a semiconductor diode or a circuit breaker, is provided between the two onboard electrical system regions. The blocking apparatus permits current to flow from the first onboard electrical system region to the second onboard electrical system region and largely prevents current from flowing in reverse from the second onboard electrical system region to the first onboard electrical system region.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2009Date of Patent: December 4, 2012Assignee: Bayerische Motoren Werke AktiengesellschaftInventors: Andreas Broesse, Dieter Polenov, Hartmut Proebstle, Marcus Hafkemeyer

Patent number: 8148955Abstract: A motor vehicle includes an on-board vehicle electric system, an electric consumer, whose resistance decreases with the decreasing voltage dropping at the consumer, an electric energy accumulator, and a switching arrangement. The switching arrangement is designed and is connected or connectable to the on-board vehicle electric system, the consumer and the energy accumulator such that in a first switching position, the energy accumulator, and in a second switching position, the switching arrangement, is connected in parallel to the on-board vehicle electric system. The energy accumulator in the second switching position is connected in series to the consumer, and the energy accumulator in the first switching position is not connected in series to the consumer.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2009Date of Patent: April 3, 2012Assignee: Bayerische Motoren Werke AktiengesellschaftInventors: Tomas Reiter, Hartmut Proebstle, Dieter Polenov
