Abstract: A vehicle has a transverse roof bow of a vehicle roof. The transverse roof bow extends in the transverse direction of the vehicle, being located above a seat region for vehicle occupants in the vertical direction of the vehicle, and adjoins, at least in some regions, a region of a vehicle interior from behind in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The region represents a free space for the head of a vehicle occupant to move. The transverse roof bow has two lateral regions and a central region connected thereto. The central region extends in the transverse direction of the vehicle. The central region is connected to the lateral regions in each case via a transition region. The transition regions extend towards the rear side of the vehicle obliquely between the lateral regions and the central region. A front side of the central region is at a distance from front sides of the lateral regions in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method of operating a brake system for a hydraulic motor, by feeding the hydraulic motor with at least one pump having a variable cubic capacity, in a closed circuit, providing a friction brake to brake the motor, providing a brake controller that controls an amount of applied frictional braking by the friction brake and an amount of applied hydraulic braking, and determining a level of actuation of the brake controller to detect normal and emergency braking situations. In normal braking situations, the proportional amount of frictional and hydraulic braking is managed as a function of parameters to cause progressive hydrostatic braking to occur by causing a ratio between the fluid flow rate delivered by the pump and the active cubic capacity of the motor to decrease progressively. In emergency braking situations there is a controlled sudden decrease in the ratio between the fluid flow rate delivered by the pump and the active cubic capacity of the motor, and then progressive hydrostatic braking occurs.

Abstract: The system comprises friction brake means for braking the motor, which means are controlled by brake control means for causing braking to take place, means for determining a level of actuation of said control means, and braking management means which, in addition to the friction braking, are suitable for causing progressive hydrostatic braking to take place, thereby causing a decrease to take place in the ratio between the fluid flow rate delivered by the pump and the active cubic capacity of the motor. The system further comprises means for detecting an emergency braking situation or a normal braking situation as a function of the level of actuation of the brake control means. In an emergency braking situation, the braking management means are suitable for successively causing a sudden decrease to take place in the fluid flow rate delivered by the pump, and then causing progressive hydrostatic braking to take place.

Abstract: A pneumatic brake force producing device for a vehicle comprising: a heat storing container; at least one intake device in the container for taking in surrounding air, the intake device having a condenser for condensing humidity out of the surrounding air, the condenser including at least one pope feeding the intake air the brake force producing device, and at least portions of the at least one pipe ore arranged in a cooler zone of the container which is cooler in a regular driving operation of the vehicle than air-guiding parts of the brake force producing device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pneumatic brake force producing device comprising at least one suction device for the surrounding air. The aim of the invention is to prevent the condensation of air humidity in the brake force producing device. According to the invention, this can be achieved in an especially reliable manner by passing the aspirated air through a condenser before it enters the brake force producing device. The air-guiding parts in said condenser are at a lower temperature than the air-guiding parts of the brake force producing device in such a way that enough air humidity from the air condenses in the condenser to avoid further condensation in the brake force producing device.
