Abstract: A tube holder for a tube-filling machine has a cup-shaped housing, which has an upwardly opening tube mount, into which a tube can be inserted with an axial end area thereof. A clamping device, by which a clamping force can be applied to the tube, is arranged in the area of the tube wall of the tube mount. Provisions are made for the clamping device to have at least one inflatable clamping element with an inner chamber, into which a pressurized fluid can be filled through a feed line. The clamping element can be adjusted between a clamping position, in which a clamping force is applied to the tube, and a releasing position, in which no clamping force is preferably applied to the tube.

Abstract: A tube holder for a tube-filling machine has a cup-shaped housing which comprises an upwardly opening tube receiving means into which a tube is insertable by way of one axial end region thereof. A clamping device, by which a clamping force can be applied to the tube, is arranged in the region of the tube wall of the tube receiving means. It can be provided in this case that that the clamping device comprises at least one magnet which is movable by at least one electric coil and/or at least one permanent magnet between a clamping position, in which a clamping force is applied to the tube, and a releasing position in which a clamping force is not applied to the tube. Alternatively, the clamping device can comprise a magnetorheological fluid, the viscosity of which is modifiable by at least one electric coil and/or at least one permanent magnet.

Abstract: A menu including at least one menu entry and/or a menu entry from the menu, is selected by using a menu navigation device. The device can control the vehicle by at least one head movement of a driver and includes a camera which is designed to be worn on the head of the driver to capture camera data corresponding to a field of vision of the driver, a processor unit which is configured to generate a compilation of menu entries as a function of at least one predetermined viewing direction which corresponds to the direction of a field of vision of the driver and/or a position of the driver's head, and a display for outputting the menu entries.

Abstract: A device sets at least one operating parameter of at least one vehicle system of a motor vehicle. The device has at least one movement detection apparatus for determining the movement of at least one person located inside or in the vicinity of the motor vehicle, which movement detection apparatus is designed to determine at least one person-specific movement information item using at least one person-specific movement signal which is supplied by a person-side movement sensor system and relates to the movement of the person. The device is designed to set the at least one operating parameter of the at least one vehicle system using the person-specific movement information item. The device also has a memory in which certain settings of an operating parameter of a vehicle system are assigned to certain person-specific movement information items.

Abstract: In a method for coordinating operation of motor vehicles driving fully automated, a trajectory described by a driving intervention is determined for each motor vehicle from status information of the motor vehicle, whereafter it is determined by an on-board vehicle system whether a coordination condition exists that requires coordination. If a coordination condition exists, trajectory data describing the trajectory are exchanged between the motor vehicles via a communication link through an on-board communication device and the trajectory is checked for conflicts caused by spatial and temporal overlap of the trajectories of at least two motor vehicles and/or because at least one of the motor vehicles did not reach its destination. If a conflict exists, the trajectory of a motor vehicle participating in the conflict is adjusted based on an arbitration rule evaluated by an arbitration device, whereafter the driving interventions described by the trajectory are performed by each motor vehicle.

Abstract: A method identifies a first vehicle during vehicle-to-vehicle communication by the first vehicle emitting vehicle data. A second vehicle receives the emitted vehicle data. The first vehicle is detected by environment data detected with an environment sensor of the second vehicle, and identification of the first vehicle with the second vehicle by the vehicle data and the environment data. The vehicle data comprises at least one information item which relates to a visual property of the first vehicle which can be detected from the outside, and the visual property of the first vehicle which can be detected from the outside is checked by the second vehicle by the environment data for identifying the first vehicle.

Abstract: Damage caused by accidents that occur during autonomous driving of a motor vehicle should be reliably detected. For this purpose, a transport facility with a driving area which can be autonomously driven by a motor vehicle, has a detection device for detecting a first state of the motor vehicle in an entrance area outside the driving area and for detecting a second state in an exit area located within the driving area. In addition, transport facility has an evaluation device for determining a possible difference between the second state and the first state relating to damage of the motor vehicle.

Abstract: A motor vehicle has a position detection device and a control device. The position detection device detects a piece of position information that describes the position of at least one occupant of the motor vehicle and/or of a mobile terminal, particularly a mobile telephone, that is associable or associated with the occupant within the motor vehicle by taking account of a position of the mobile terminal and/or of a piece of registration information delivered by the mobile terminal. The control device is designed to set at least one operating parameter of a vehicle system by taking account of a piece of control information delivered by the mobile terminal and of the position information and/or to transmit at least one piece of operating information that influences at least one function of the mobile terminal to the mobile terminal on the basis of the position information.
