Publication number: 20070278051Abstract: In a method and a device for vehicle brake actuation, braking can be actuated as a function of a driver's default value, which can be set by the driver of the vehicle. The default value can be set, in such a way that a braking force dependent on the driver's default value is generated. The braking force actually generated is modified independently of the driver in order to execute an automatic braking sequence when a predefined triggering condition is fulfilled. A limit value for the braking force is determined as a function of the driver's default value, and braking during execution of the automatic braking sequence is actuated independently of the driver in such a way that the modified braking force generated does not quantitatively exceed the limit value determined.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2005Publication date: December 6, 2007Applicant: DAIMLERCHRYSLER AGInventors: Peter Hille, Wolfgang Lauer, Volker Schmid

Publication number: 20070069578Abstract: In a method for shortening the stopping distance of a vehicle (2), in which a braking operation is prepared when a predefined event occurs, the braking operation is prepared if a driving situation which is implausible to a driving assistance system occurs. This permits traffic safety to be improved.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 11, 2004Publication date: March 29, 2007Applicant: DaimierChrysler AGInventors: Peter Hille, Wolfgang Lauer, Thomas Rohrig-Gericke, Ralph Scharpf

Patent number: 6504697Abstract: An arrangement for overload protection of a switch to which a load circuit and a control circuit are connected, wherein: the control circuit includes at least one logic circuit, a gate drive connected between an output of the logic circuit and a control input of the switch, a comparator, and a temperature sensor. The comparator compares a voltage drop across the switch to a predetermined threshold value, and the temperature sensor is a discrete component relative to at least the switch and has an associated threshold-value recognition. The logic circuit is responsive to the output of the comparator and the temperature sensor to cause the gate driver to switch off the switch when at least one limit value for the voltage drop across the switch, or a limit value for the permissible switch temperature, is exceeded.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 1999Date of Patent: January 7, 2003Assignee: DaimlerChrysler AGInventor: Peter Hille

Patent number: 6031701Abstract: An overvoltage protective arrangement to protect an electrical installation against overvoltages, which installation has an onboard power supply system fed by an electrical D.C. generator (9) and electrical devices connected thereto. The overvoltage protective arrangement is provided with a limiting device whose threshold value is above the rated generator voltage.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 1998Date of Patent: February 29, 2000Assignee: Daimler-Chrysler AGInventors: Rainer Maeckel, Peter Hille

Patent number: 5977751Abstract: A battery monitoring unit is provided with a semiconductor power switch, which is looped into the battery lead and can serve for interrupting the battery current in a controlled manner. The battery monitoring unit comprises a sense FET circuit arrangement, which determines the battery current bidirectionally and the power FET part of which forms the semiconductor power switch, which is looped into the battery lead. Aside from the controllable interruption of battery current, a bidirectional determination of battery current and, with that, a continuous monitoring of the charge state of the battery is possible with this circuit arrangement, and can be used for monitoring vehicle batteries.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 1998Date of Patent: November 2, 1999Assignee: Daimler-Benz AktiengesellschaftInventors: Alf Blessing, Peter Hille

Patent number: 5877534Abstract: An electrostatic discharge (ESD) device includes a pair of depletion mode MOSFETs connected drain-to-drain in a series path between an input terminal and an output terminal, the gate of each MOSFET being connected to its source. A first diode having a relatively high breakdown voltage is connected between ground and the common drain terminal of the MOSFETs, and a second diode having a relatively low breakdown voltage is connected between ground and the output terminal of the device. The second diode breaks down during a relatively low, long-lived voltage spike (in an automobile, sometimes referred to as a "load dump"), while the second MOSFET saturates, limiting the size of the current through the second diode. The first diode breaks down during a large voltage spike of short duration, such as occurs from an ESD.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 1997Date of Patent: March 2, 1999Assignee: Siliconix incorporatedInventors: Richard K. Williams, Peter Hille, Robert G. Wrathall
