Abstract: An adjustment device for a steering wheel may have a first shaft about which the steering wheel is pivotable. A rotary latch is rotationally fixed to the steering wheel by a rotary latch element. A second shaft is arranged in parallel with the first shaft. A coupling lever is arranged on the second shaft to interact with the rotary latch element. The coupling lever has a stop surface which, for the purpose of engagement, engages in at least one corresponding stop surface of the rotary latch element when the steering wheel, and thus also the rotary latch, is pivoted. At least one of the stop surfaces may have a chamfer via which the coupling lever can be displaced or is displaced out of the engagement with the rotary latch element when a predetermined force is applied to the steering wheel.

Abstract: A locking device for a movable vehicle element of a vehicle may have at least a rotary catch, a locking element and an associated blocking mechanism. The blocking mechanism may have at least one blocking element and a movable actuating element for locked coupling of the rotary catch and the locking element. The movable actuating element may be designed to move the rotary catch into a closed position going beyond at least one latching position and to stop in this closed position. The rotary catch and the blocking element may be out of latching engagement in the closed position.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for automatic and dynamic adaptation of cache groups in a database system having one or more processors. The method includes analyzing a database query and determining if a set of predicates in a predicate pattern are suitable for inclusion in one or more cache groups, with the one or more cache groups having one or more cache tables; mapping value-based predicates in the predicate pattern to a filling column in the one or more cache tables; and mapping equi-join predicates in the predicate pattern to a referential cache constraint in the one or more cache tables. New cache groups can be created for predicate patterns occurring more frequently and existing cache groups can be deleted if the frequency of the predicate pattern falls below a predetermined threshold value.
