  • Patent number: 7472281
    Abstract: In a method for the automatic log-in of a subscriber station in a motor vehicle into an external information system, a non-automatic log-in is first performed by transmitting to the external information system a subscriber identification, a pertaining password and a station identification. The automatic log-in for the subscriber identification is activated by transmitting a corresponding request from the subscriber station to the external information system, establishing a secret code for the subscriber identification in the external information system, and transmitting the secret code in a hidden manner to the subscriber station. The secret code is stored in a hidden manner in the subscriber station. An automatic log-in of the subscriber station into the external information system is implemented by transmitting to the external information system the subscriber identification without the password, the station identification and transmitting the code in a hidden manner.

  • Patent number: 7395052
    Abstract: A process provides access data to a transportable subscriber station, for establishing access to a service provider station. A first access mode which can be provided using first access data includes a first network that is accessible by means of a selectable network account, a first switching station, and a second network. A second access mode can be provided by means of second access data by way of the first network and a fixedly defined second switching station. If first access data for the selected network account are not available a request for the second access mode is made to the service provider station, using the stored second access data, and a request is made for first access data for the selected network account in the second access mode. This requested access data for the selected network account are transmitted to the subscriber station in the second access mode and stored for the selected network account in the subscriber station.

  • Publication number: 20050090301
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a holder for an electronic device, wherein the holder includes a receptacle that is specifically configured for the electronic device, a base device which includes an integrated electrical connection element, which is independent of the receptacle, for establishing an electrical connection between the electronic device and an electrical unit, and fixing parts for establishing a detachable mechanical connection between the base device and the receptacle.

  • Patent number: 6871134
    Abstract: For determining the exhaust gas recirculation mass flow and the exhaust gas recirculation rate of an internal combustion engine (1) dependent on this, it is proposed, while said internal combustion engine (1) is in operation, to adapt a characteristic curve, determined before said internal combustion engine (1) is initially started up, representing the cylinder mass flow (dmzyl) supplied to the cylinders of said internal combustion engine (1), which is composed of the fresh air mass flow (dmHFM) and the exhaust mass flow recirculated via an exhaust gas recirculation pipe (16), to said fresh air mass flow (dmHFM), known for various operating points of said internal combustion engine. The exhaust gas recirculation mass flow (dmAGR) is then determined as a function of said fresh air mass flow (dmHFM), measured at a particular transient operating point of said internal combustion engine, using the adapted characteristic curve of said cylinder mass flow (dmzyl).

  • Patent number: 6836207
    Abstract: A strip conductor comprises a first layer with at least one curved section. At least one region of the curved section provided with an additional layer having a smaller resistivity than the first layer. The at least one region is constructed such that resistance on tracks of different radii of curvature is approximately equalized.

  • Publication number: 20040075520
    Abstract: A strip conductor has an additional layer (4, 8, 9) in regions (5, 6, 7) of a curved section (3). The additional layer has a smaller resistivity than the strip conductor. In this way, a more uniform distribution of the current flow transversely across the width of the strip conductor is achieved. High current densities at the curve inside (10) are therefore avoided.
