Publication number: 20240337452Abstract: A method for producing a component for a heat exchanger through which fluid flows is provided. A base plate is provided on which there is an adhesive layer formed by glue. A channel plate is placed on the surface of the base plate such that the channel plate is spaced apart from the base plate in at least one channel region to delimit at least one fluid channel, and is bears on the adhesive layer in at least one bonding region to obtain a material bond with the base plate. The channel plate and base plate are clamped together in and by a hot press, such that a material bond is formed between the base plate and the channel plate in the bonding region when the adhesive layer is heated. The base plate and channel plate are placed in a cold press such that the adhesive layer that was heated in the hot press is cooled while the base plate is clamped against the channel plate.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 2, 2024Publication date: October 10, 2024Inventors: Michael KRANICH, Thomas SCHIEHLEN, Robin WIGENA, Andreas KÖNIG, Jakob PRAUS

Patent number: 10137823Abstract: An adaptive cornering light system for a motor vehicle includes an exterior mirror head, housing at least one lighting module that having a plurality of LEDs arranged in sectors to provide different lighting functionalities. One LED or light sector is provided for adaptively illuminating a cornering area that extends along the side of the vehicle toward the front of the exterior mirror head. This “cornering LED” is adaptively activated if the speed of the vehicle is below a threshold speed, or in response to additional optional parameters such as steering angle, turn-signal blinker activation, and running lights activation.
