Abstract: A method for operating a fan system as well as such a fan system. The fan system has a control device having an artificial neural network. The control device controls an electric motor of a backward curved centrifugal fan. The centrifugal fan creates a gas flow that is characterized by an actual flow value, particularly the actual value of a volume flow rate. The actual flow value is not detected by a sensor means, but determined by means of the artificial neural network depending from input variables and based thereon, the electric motor is open loop or closed loop controlled by means of the control device. The motor current and the motor voltage as well as their time-dependent behavior that can be the time derivative (e.g. gradient of first order) or that can be at least one preceding value at a preceding point in time, are provided to an input layer of the artificial neural network.

Abstract: A method for ascertaining volume flow or pressure for controlling a ventilator, operated by an EC motor, of a specific ventilation device to a specific operating point in order to achieve and maintain a specified nominal volume flow strength or nominal pressure of the ventilation device without use of a pressure or volume flow sensor. The volume flow is ascertained by an artificial neuronal network on the basis of a sequential learning method with a number of learning steps. A linking of n artificial neurons in one or more layers is provided. At least one entry layer Pi is provided in order to process a number of I input parameters, that have a direct or indirect influence on the volume flow in the ventilation device.

Abstract: A method for controlling a restraint device for occupants of a vehicle is provided. An environment of the vehicle is captured and a restraint device is triggered depending on object data and vehicle data determined in the environment. An impact probability is determined in stages based on determined object data and/or vehicle data. Depending on the determined strength of impact probability of a respective stage, a restraint device is pre-triggered or triggered, or triggering of restraint device is suppressed and determined triggering information is processed further in a next stage.

Abstract: A vehicle seat belt tensioner comprises a traction element that transmits a tensioning force to a seat belt strap. The traction element may be formed for example of a flexible rope or a wire, or a thrust element which can transmit traction and thrust forces. A force limiting unit, which limits the retaining force exerted by the seat belt strap on a passenger has a functional element coupled to the traction or thrust element, which is displaceable by means of a displaceable piston element in the effective direction of the tensioning force. The vehicle belt tensioner according to the invention includes means for the parallel application of tensioning force to both the piston element and the traction or thrust element, concurrently.

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for restraining passengers in a retaining passengers in a vehicle upon impact with an obstacle, a possible accident is initially sensed. Thereafter, at the latest, whenever the vehicle first contacts the obstacle, or whenever vehicle deceleration exceeds a threshold, a force acting in the direction of impact is exerted upon the passenger via a seat belt system. The force is introduced by bilateral tensioning of a lap belt of a seat belt system, from both sides at a force of at least 2000-4500 N. The latter is maintained for a retaining phase of at least 20 ms along a displacement path of the passenger.
