Abstract: The invention relates to an internal combustion engine, comprising an intake path, a crankcase, an exhaust gas path and a crankcase ventilation means, wherein the crankcase ventilation means is open, closed or separate. The internal combustion engine according to the invention comprises an intake path, a crankcase, an exhaust gas path and an open crankcase ventilation means, wherein the open crankcase ventilation means comprises a first line and a second line, wherein the first line is designed to connect the exhaust gas path to the crankcase in order to guide exhaust gas out of the exhaust gas path to the crankcase, and wherein the second line is designed to connect the crankcase to the exhaust gas path in order to discharge exhaust gas and leakage gases located in the crankcase from the crankcase and to feed them to the exhaust gas path.

Abstract: A vehicle combination and a method for forming and operating a vehicle combination that includes at least first and second autonomous vehicles. Each of the autonomous vehicles is configured to automatically control its motions in a state wherein the first and second autonomous vehicles do not form the vehicle combination. When the vehicle combination is formed, the two autonomous vehicles are connected via a communications connection and the first autonomous vehicle automatically controls the motion of the second autonomous vehicle via the communication connection.

Abstract: The invention relates to an automated guided vehicle and a method for operating an automated guided vehicle. Upon arriving at a destination, then the automated guided vehicle is moved, based on a comparison of signals or data assigned to the environment detected by at least one sensor with signals or data which are assigned to a target position or to a target position and orientation of the automated guided vehicle at the destination, such that the actual position or the actual position and orientation is the same as the target position or target position and orientation at least within a pre-specified tolerance.
