Abstract: A method for adapting driving behavior includes inspecting driving behavior of a motor vehicle (1) travelling consecutively with a road user (2). Consecutive travel is detected by at least one sensor of the motor vehicle (1). If the other road user (2) is not detected, the method uses traffic data to predict a position of the other road user (2). If the predicted position of the road user (2) reveals consecutive travel, the method inspects the driving behavior of the motor vehicle (1) as in the case of consecutive travel detected by the at least one sensor. The method adapts a driving behavior while using few sensors to provide a high level of road safety and/or a high level of driving comfort. Optionally, a human-machine interface may display or report back a virtual representation of the road user in the predicted position to the driver of the motor vehicle.

In this case, the two perforated plates (1, 2) are displaceable in the longitudinal direction relatively to one another from a non-displaced state into a displaced state, and the plates (1, 2) have spacers (4) on the mutually facing inner sides, which spacers are constructed in such a manner that the spacing (D?) between the plates (1, 2) is larger in the displaced state than in the non-displaced state (D), so that the filter covering (3) is tensioned in the displaced state of the plates (1, 2). In addition, at least one latching element (6) is provided, which fixes the plates (1, 2) to one another in the displaced state.

The vehicle also includes an image capturing device configured to capture an image of a respective seat and/or an occupant sitting in the respective seat, and a display device configured to display an image captured by the image capturing device in a region of another seat and/or in a field of view of an occupant sitting in the other seat.

Abstract: A position-measuring device includes a scale having first and second measuring graduations, which each include graduation structures that respectively extend parallel to first and second directions. A first scanning unit is associated with the first measuring graduation, and second and third scanning units are associated with the second measuring graduation. A fourth scanning unit is associated with the first or second measuring graduation. In the former case, a first straight connecting line running through scanning locations of the first and fourth scanning units and a second straight connecting line running through scanning locations of the second and third scanning units are parallel or form a predetermined angle therebetween that is not equal to a sum of the angles of the first and second directions. In the latter case, the scanning locations of the second, third and fourth scanning units do not lie on a common straight connecting line.

Abstract: Battery device for an at least semi-electrically powered motor vehicle includes a battery housing and an assembly of battery cells and compression pads arranged between the battery cells. The compression pads are elastically configured in order to be able to exert a surface compression on the battery cells and to compensate for volume changes of the battery cells. The compression pads each include at least one swelling body, which is suitable and configured to expand from an unswollen pre-mounting state to a swollen finished mounting state by absorbing an activator fluid, thereby increasing its volume such that the compression pads can exert their intended surface compression on the battery cells.

The slat assembly includes at least two slats, which are arranged so as to be borne rotatably about their axis of rotation in a frame of the air guiding device, and wherein, for rotation about the axis of rotation, the slat has a first bearing point and a second bearing point configured so as to lie opposite the first bearing point. For the rotatable bearing in the frame, the first bearing point of a first coupling point of the frame and the second bearing point of a second coupling point of the frame are arranged opposite one another. The slat is configured so as to absorb tensile and compressive forces.

Abstract: An inductive angle measuring device includes a scanning element and a scale element having scale tracks. First and third scale tracks have an equal first number of scale structures, and a second scale track has a different number of scale structures. The scale tracks are arranged circumferentially and concentrically about an axis, such that the first scale track is located radially inwardly, the second scale track is located radially between the first scale track and the third scale track, and the third scale track is located radially outwardly. The scanning element includes receiver conductors by which the signals having angle-related signal periods can be generated. The first signal period is equal to the third signal period. An overall signal can be generated from the first signal and the third signal and can be combined with the second signal for determining absolute angle position information.
