Abstract: A protection apparatus for a manipulation device on a handling device, in particular on a handling robot. The manipulation device has at least one movably developed manipulation element and at least one overload protection which induces an evasion of the manipulation device when a trigger force on the manipulation device is exceeded. The overload protection has at least one magnetic element, which fixates the manipulation device in a setpoint position at forces below the trigger force.

Abstract: A device for a data and energy management in a vehicle having a connecting arrangement via which a superordinate control unit may be connected to at least one subordinate control system, respectively, the superordinate control unit having a superordinate interface and the at least one subordinate control system having a subordinate interface, using which, the superordinate control unit and the at least one subordinate control system exchange data of at least one electrical user via the connecting arrangement, for the purpose of a bidirectional communication. In an advantageous manner there is the possibility that in the case of an energy demand by the at least one subordinate control system via a first connecting arrangement, purposefully at least one additional connecting arrangement is able to be deactivated and/or activated by at least one superordinate switching arrangement of the superordinate control unit, in order to fulfill the desired energy demand.

Abstract: A variably mountable profile bar (10, 10′) for use as a column, boom, cross member, strut, or the like for devices (30) is proposed. The profile bar (10, 10′) is made of aluminum and, along two opposite side surfaces (12), has respective anchoring grooves (14) with a groove cross sectional area AN. A hollow channel (16) for electrical an pneumatic lines is embodied in the longitudinal direction. The hollow channel has a channel cross sectional area AK. The material of the profile bar (10, 10′) has a material cross sectional area AM. The profile bar (10, 10′) is characterized in that at least in sections, the ratio of the groove cross sectional area AN and the channel cross sectional area AK to the material cross sectional area AM is between 0.1 and 0.8. As a result, the profile bar (10, 10′) is rigid and can be processed in a processing machine, as a result of which narrow tolerances can be achieved.

Abstract: The electrically conducting cable for making an electrical connection between consumers and a voltage supply device (13) has a single conductor made of electrically conductive material and a common plug (11) at one end of the single conductor for connection to a common voltage supply device (13). The single conductor is subdivided into respective regions (A,B,C) of different cross-sections, which become progressively smaller in a direction along the single conductor from the plug (11) toward the consumers (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8). Each region is connected to at least one consumer at a branch point at the end of the region, advantageously via an overload-protected semiconductor switch, so that all the consumers are supplied via the single conductor.

Abstract: A voltage conversion device is disclosed which is to be used particularly in motor vehicles. For voltage conversion, a plurality of small voltage converters are connected as partial converters parallel to one another. By sequentially turning on the individual partial converters and superposition of the output current, a uniform output current at low input load is attained.

Abstract: A two-battery on-board electrical system in a motor vehicle is disclosed, in which an on-board electrical system control unit is disposed between the batteries, and one battery is used primarily to supply the usual consumers while the other is used primarily to supply the starter. The on-board electrical system control unit 16 includes an on-board electrical system module, which performs the requisite reverse switching operations and has one further terminal, by on-board electrical system components required for starting an operation can be supplied with voltage. These on-board electrical system components are supplied at maximum priority, and if the supply battery is too greatly discharged are jointly supplied by both batteries, but it is nevertheless assured that during the starting process the other on-board electrical system components are not connected to the starter battery.

Abstract: A central control module generates nominal values for braking based on a pedal input value form a pedal sensor which detects actuation of the brake pedal by the driver, and sensor signals representing wheel speeds. First and second brake control modules transmit sensor signals to the central module, receive nominal values from the central module, and transmit nominal values to the actuators. The first brake control module receives the pedal input value from the pedal sensor directly, and calculates the nominal values as a function of the pedal input value when the central module has failed.
