  • Patent number: 8896258
    Abstract: A method for starting an electric motor having a rotor, comprising the following steps:—driving the rotor with a first torque in a first rotational direction, wherein a maximum value of the first torque is not higher than a maximum countertorque acting counter to the rotation of the rotor, so that the rotor comes to a standstill in a first stationary position;—driving the rotor starting from the first stationary position in a second rotational direction that is counter to the first rotational direction until the rotor comes to a standstill in a predefined second stationary position; and—starting from the rotor in the first rotational direction starting from the second stationary position.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20120050638
    Abstract: A flat screen includes an LCD matrix display element having a liquid crystal layer that is enclosed between a front pane on an observer side and a rear pane and surrounded on its narrow sides by a metallic enclosure. Disposed in front of the LCD matrix display element is a cover pane which supports an electrically conductive layer. The conductive layer is in conducting contact with the enclosure, with the enclosure extending forwards beyond the conductive layer.

  • Publication number: 20120044131
    Abstract: A flat screen includes an LCD matrix display element; a frame, an image field which is surrounded by the frame and set back behind a front face of the frame, and a cover pane disposed in front of the LCD matrix display element. The cover pane has a core zone which is arranged opposite the image field and has a flat inner surface, and a peripheral zone arranged opposite the frame. The flat inner surface of the core zone faces the image field and extends in an intermediate space between the image field and a plane defined by the front face of the frame.

  • Publication number: 20120038838
    Abstract: A flat screen includes an LCD matrix display element having a liquid crystal layer that is enclosed between a front pane on an observer side and a rear pane. Two metallic surfaces are arranged in opposition to one another at a distance in a viewing direction and connected to one another in a conducting manner. The metallic surfaces are disposed in front of the LCD matrix display element in the viewing direction and have overlapping openings, through which the LCD matrix display element is visible.
