The rotary latch has a closed position.

Abstract: A driver monitoring device for a vehicle may include a camera device and a control device. The camera device is configured to detect a detection area of a vehicle cabin of the vehicle and to send camera data to the control device. The control device is configured to check a current degree of automation of the vehicle and, if a specific degree of automation is present, to check the vehicle driver in the camera data for meeting a vehicle driver attentiveness criteria, and if at least a minimum number of vehicle driver attentiveness criteria are met, to establish a vehicle driver attentiveness and otherwise to determine that the vehicle driver attentiveness is not present. A vehicle driver attentiveness criteria may include a finger gesture of the vehicle driver being detected by the control device.

Abstract: A body arrangement for a vehicle includes at least one fender and at least one attachment part. The at least one fender and the at least one attachment part are connected to a vehicle-side structure. The fender has at least one hazardous region through which a risk of injury can be created in the event of an accident, and the at least one attachment part is arranged next to the hazardous region of the at least one fender. A connection is formed between the at least one attachment part and the at least one fender.

Abstract: A method for operating a motor vehicle, which has at least one electric machine, is provided and may include providing a recuperation torque aimed at decelerating the motor vehicle at least temporarily, setting the recuperation torque to a target value, and selecting a default value for the recuperation torque from a plurality of default values. A first recuperation operating mode may be carried out when a default value is selected on the operating element which corresponds to a recuperation torque other than zero. The first recuperation operating mode may be switched to a second recuperation operating mode when a default value is selected on the operating element which corresponds to a recuperation torque of zero and when an accelerator pedal of the motor vehicle is actuated. The disclosure further relates to a motor vehicle.

Abstract: A telescopic steering column for a motor vehicle, with a base element on which a base element spindle is mounted so as to be rotatable about a base element spindle rotation axis, and with a telescopic unit which is guided linearly with respect to the base element and which has a telescopic unit driver which has a telescopic unit driver thread which engages with a base element spindle thread of the base element spindle. The telescopic unit has a telescopic unit spindle which is drivingly connected to a transmission element which is coupled to the base element spindle in a tangential direction with respect to the base element spindle rotation axis and is guided so as to be freely displaceable on it in the axial direction with respect to the base element spindle rotation axis.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an intercell cooling element with swelling compensation, includes steps of providing two metallic, in particular aluminum alloy, half-shell elements, each of which has a closed channel structure on its inner sides; aligning the half-shell elements so that the inner sides face each other, and positioning one compression insert between the half-shell elements; and connecting the half-shell elements by joining them together along their edge sections.

Abstract: Carrying out settings on at least one first actuator of a motor vehicle may include predefining a first setting for the at least one first actuator, obtaining, based on a first NFT, first data which predefine a second setting, and using the obtained data to change the first setting into the second setting.

Abstract: A wheel bearing unit for a vehicle, having a wheel bearing which has at least one internal ring arranged fixedly on a bearing seat of a hollow cylindrical hub portion of a wheel hub. The hub portion can be connected in a torque-transmitting manner to a joint bell of a constant velocity joint of a cardan shaft of the vehicle, and the joint bell axially preloads the internal ring against the bearing seat of the hub portion of the wheel hub. Contact surfaces between the internal ring and the bearing seat and/or between the internal ring and the joint bell are coated with an adhesive friction-reducing layer.

Abstract: A head-up display for a motor vehicle may include an image-generating unit to provide a first image half and a second image half of an image. The first image half is based on a light having a first polarization and the second image half is based on a light having a second polarization. The first image half can be projected by a first optical unit onto a first partial surface, and the first optical unit is transmissive for the second image half and reflective for the first image half. The second image half can be projected by a second optical unit onto a second partial surface and the second optical unit is arranged behind the first optical unit in relation to a beam path of the first and second image halves.

Abstract: A method for operating an illuminating device of a motor vehicle, wherein light is radiated into a lighting volume by the illuminating device, wherein a control condition is evaluated, the fulfillment of which depends on whether the lighting volume comprises a partial lighting volume by which an area and/or an environment volume is illuminated that is illuminated or can be illuminated by an infrastructure luminaire, wherein when the control condition is fulfilled, the illuminating device is controlled in such a way that light is radiated into the partial lighting volume with a different light intensity than into a residual lighting volume of the lighting volume, which residual lighting volume lies outside the partial lighting volume.

Abstract: A bumper assembly, having a cross member, which is coupled to a motor vehicle via crash boxes, wherein the cross member is oriented with its longitudinal direction in the motor vehicle transverse direction and on a rear wall has attachment regions in which the crash boxes are coupled by a material connection to the cross member, wherein in cross section a chamfer or a radius is configured on the crash boxes in an external corner, relative to the motor vehicle transverse direction.

Abstract: A crash system for a drive arrangement of a motor vehicle, including a drive unit, a bearing unit with a first bearing and two second bearings, a support unit with a cross member and/or a longitudinal member, and a subframe. The drive unit is coupled to the first and second bearings respectively. The first bearing is positioned in front of the second bearings in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The second bearings are located on the support unit. The second bearings are arranged in the vehicle vertical direction above the first bearing. When a force is applied to the drive unit from the front in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, the bearing unit is operatively connected to the support unit so the drive unit is rotated about a pivot point formed along the transverse direction of the vehicle.
