Abstract: In a parking lock for an automatic transmission, an electrical parking lock actuator has an electric motor, a spur gear stage driveable by the electric motor, and a worm gear stage driveable by the spur gear stage. A worm shaft of the worm gear stage is connected rotationally conjointly to an output gear of the spur gear stage, and a worm gear of the worm gear stage is connected rotationally conjointly to a transmission-side parking lock shaft. The worm shaft is fixed in an axially displaceable manner in the output gear. A stop limits the pivoting movement of the worm gear when a parking lock position of the parking lock shaft is reached. A spring braces the worm shaft in an axial direction of the worm shaft against a holding mechanism which is situated in a stop position, in which the holding mechanism is fixed by an electrically energized electromagnet.

Abstract: A protective circuit for a DC voltage charging apparatus has a first input, a first output, a second input, a second output, a controllable first switch, a controllable second switch and a first circuit. The first output can be electrically connected to the first input by the controllable first switch and the second output can be electrically connected to the second input by the controllable second switch. The first circuit is electrically connected to the first output and to the second output and said first circuit has a voltmeter, which is designed to identify a voltage value that characterizes the sign of the voltage between the first output and the second output. The first circuit is designed to make it possible to actuate the first switch and the second switch depending on the voltage value.

Abstract: An angle measurement system includes a first component group, a second component group, and bearing elements arranged between the component groups. A gap extends at an axial extension between a first component and a second component so that the components are disposed along both sides of the gap relative to each other without coming into contact. An annular first body is mounted on the first component, which is disposed without contact in relation to the second component group. The second component includes a section, which is separated by a radial gap and is located radially outside and across from a region of the first body that extends in the axial direction, and the first body is situated radially outside and circumferentially about the axis in relation to the bearing elements. The first body is able to hold lubricant. Alternatively or additionally, a corresponding annular second body is fixed in place on the second component.
