Abstract: A display having at least two display surfaces, a controller and a communication interface for receiving charge state signals are provided in a display device. Each charge state signal describes the respective charge state of one of multiple electrical consumer devices. The control device determines the charge state of each electrical consumer device based on the charge state signals received. Then the control device generates image signals, each defining an image representing one of the detected charge states and transmits the image signals to the display. The image of each detected charge state is displayed on a display surface assigned to the respective electrical consumer device. The display device may be part of a household appliance, or an item of furniture.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a communication light device for a vehicle interior, having a housing, wherein light sources are arranged in a row on a housing base, wherein the light sources are configured to generate a time-controllable light signal, wherein a side wall of the housing has a light exit opening which extends across the side wall in the direction of the row of light sources and which points towards the vehicle interior when the communication light device is in an intended installation position, and wherein internal walls of the housing have a diffusely reflecting surface.

Abstract: A wheel bearing arrangement for a motor vehicle, having a wheel hub and a wheel bearing for rotatably mounting the wheel hub on a wheel carrier. The wheel bearing has an outer ring and an inner ring. A wheel flange extends from the wheel hub in a radial direction and has a brake disc receptacle which is open in the direction facing away from the outer ring and is formed by a recess in the wheel flange and has a brake disc bearing face for a brake disc. A seal-receptacle space is formed in the wheel flange on its side facing the outer ring in an axial direction, in which seal-receptacle space there is a wheel bearing seal. A rim-centering seat element extends from the wheel hub and runs in the direction opposite the brake disc bearing face with respect to the brake disc receptacle.

Abstract: A method for operating a motor vehicle. The motor vehicle has a drive unit which is designed in such a way that, in case of acceleration, the motor vehicle is accelerated using a continuous torque output. The drive unit is operable in a first and second operating mode. In the first operating mode the motor vehicle is accelerated without interruption by the continuous torque output, and in the second operating mode the continuous torque output is changed over to a stepped torque output, so that in the second operating mode the motor vehicle is accelerated subject to interruption by the stepped torque output.

The first power semiconductor module includes a first base plate having a first main side, a second main side opposite the first main side and a lateral side surface extending along a circumferential edge of the first base plate and connecting the first and the second main side. The frame is attached to the second main side of the first base plate. The first base plate has a first step on the second main side along the circumferential edge of the first base plate to form a first recess along the circumferential edge of the first base plate, in which first recess a first portion of the frame is received.

Abstract: A method for operating a dual-clutch transmission having a first partial transmission, a second partial transmission, a first clutch assigned to the first partial transmission, and a second clutch assigned to the second partial transmission, in which the dual-clutch transmission is shifted into a parking lock state. The dual-clutch transmission is shifted into the parking lock state by the following steps: while a first gear of one of the partial transmissions is engaged: carrying out an engagement process provided for engaging a second gear of the one partial transmission; determining that the second gear is not engaged despite the engagement process being carried out; selecting a third gear of the dual-clutch transmission different from the first gear and from the second gear; and engaging the selected third gear such that in the park lock condition, the first gear and the third gear are at least temporarily engaged simultaneously.
