  • Method for estimating the range of a motor vehicle
    Patent number: 8594918
    Abstract: A method is provided for estimating the range of a motor vehicle based on a quantity of energy carried in the motor vehicle. The method enables a driver to limit a maximum permissible velocity and/or a maximum permissible acceleration and/or a maximum performance level for a comfort system. The method also detects the route profiles surrounding the motor vehicle, in particular an altitude profile and/or a road category. A computer device calculates and displays a still possible range at least on the basis of the limitation which has been carried out, the detected route profiles and the still available quantity of energy.

  • DRILLING TOOL AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING DRILL HOLES
    Publication number: 20130307178
    Abstract: A drilling tool for producing drill holes includes a tip and a shaft arranged opposite the tip in a direction of a longitudinal axis of the drilling tool. The drilling tool has at least one geometrically defined cutting edge in the tip area, and has an expanded diameter trailing the tip in a longitudinal direction from the tip. The drilling tool has a first area with a first diameter that precedes the expanded diameter, and a second area with a second diameter, larger than the first diameter, that trails the expanded diameter. The drilling tool is distinguished in that the expanded diameter and/or the second area is/are embodied such that chips are produced in the area of the expanded diameter and/or in the second area when a workpiece is machined, chips consistent with those produced when a workpiece is machined with a geometrically undefined cutting edge.

  • DEVICE FOR ACTUATING A CONTROL VALVE
    Publication number: 20130306892
    Abstract: An apparatus for activation of a control valve is configurable as a slide, ball valve, rotary slide, poppet valve, or the like, and controls or regulates pressure-impacted media, for example, regulating the coolant volume stream of an internal combustion engine. A push piston linearly displaceable in a piston guide rigidly disposed on the flow housing, with an activation joint, is fastened onto the flow housing. A connecting rod is disposed in the activation joint. A push joint is disposed at the push piston end that lies opposite the activation joint, in which push joint the activation element of a control valve is displaceably and/or rotatably disposed. A reset spring is disposed adjacent to the push joint and acts on the push piston, in the direction of its longitudinal axis, so that the push piston always lies against the connecting rod without play, with the activation joint.
