Abstract: A method for autonomous operation of a compression apparatus for compressing a ground, the method comprising the steps: choosing a surface to be processed of the ground; preparing the compression apparatus or at least a portion of the surface to be processed so that the compression apparatus automatically processes the surface to be processed in an autonomous operation so that substantially each spot of the surface to be processed is processed at least once; moving a position-determination device along a path which represents at least a portion of an outer boundary of the surface to be processed and capturing position data by the position determination device at least in an intermittent manner while moving the position determination device along the path; generating electronic information regarding a position of the outer boundary of the surface to be processed based on captured position data of the path.

Abstract: A device for compacting a substrate, comprising an under carriage with a base arranged on the under carriage; a superstructure which is connected to the under carriage so as to transmit a force; a vibration exciter, by means of which at least the base of the undercarriage can be caused to vibrate and a contact plate, which is arranged on the base, said contact plate being arranged on a base lower face facing away from the superstructure such that the contact plate directly contacts the substrate to be compacted during the operation of the device. The contact plate and the base are connected together in a non-destructively releasable manner so as to transmit a force.

Abstract: In a bearing bracket for pedals in motor vehicles comprising a supporting bracket (8) having its base fixed to a substantially vertical region (2) of the bulkhead/cowl panel assembly (1) and a bearing bracket (9) having its base fixed to a substantially horizontal region (3) of the bulkhead/cowl panel assembly (1), with the pivot axle (7) of the pedals, for example of a brake pedal (6), being held stably and pivotally, the pedals, e.g. a brake pedal (6), are provided with a stop arm (11) projecting upwardly above the pivot axle (7) and cooperating with a rest stop (12) to determine the rest position of the pedals, the pivot axle (7) of the pedals is pivotally mounted solely in the bearing bracket (9), in bearing openings (10), and the rest stop (12) is located on the supporting bracket (8).
