Abstract: A method for operating a flap assembly of a motor vehicle, a drive assembly for the motorized adjustment of the flap, a motor vehicle lock, and a flap sensor assembly for identifying a flap position, wherein the drive assembly has at least one drive which is restorably movement-coupled to the flap, with an electric drive motor, wherein the motor vehicle lock fixes the flap in a closed position in a main locked state, wherein the drive motor is activated by a drive control system of the drive assembly depending on the identified flap position. It is proposed that when the identified flap position reaches a predetermined braking initiation position situated before an end position in a movement procedure of the flap, the drive motor is activated in a braking routine by the drive control system in such a way that the drive assembly produces a motorized braking effect.

Abstract: A drive arrangement for adjusting a flap of a motor vehicle about a body including a motor, a drivetrain, and a freewheel mechanism. The drivetrain is disposed between the motor and the flap. The freewheel mechanism provided with a drive component including a transmitting element, and a driven component provided with a receiving element coupled to the transmitting element. During motoric movement of the flap between the closed and the open position over at least a portion of the pivot angle, the motor actuates the drive component and displaces the transmitting element, from a neutral position, conjointly with the receiving element along a displacement path.

Abstract: A drive arrangement configured to pivot a tailgate pivotally coupled to a vehicle body, between an open position and a closed position and including a freewheel mechanism, a drive shaft, and a motor. The freewheel mechanism may be rotatably coupled to the vehicle body and defining an opening provided with an inner periphery that includes a first cam element and a second cam element. The drive shaft may be fixed to the vehicle body and extending into the opening. The drive shaft may define an outer periphery that includes a third cam element and a fourth cam element. A motor may be coupled to the freewheel mechanism and may be configured to rotate the freewheel mechanism so that the first cam element engages the third cam element to pivot the tailgate from the closed position towards the open position.

Abstract: An electronics system for a vehicle including at least one acceleration sensor and an electronic control unit, which on the basis of at least one measurement signal of the acceleration sensor controls at least one drive device for the power-operated adjustment of an adjustment part of the vehicle.

Abstract: It is provided an assembly for adjusting an adjustment element relative to a stationary section of a vehicle, in particular a vehicle door relative to a vehicle body, which comprises a drive motor for electromotively adjusting the adjustment element, an electrically actuatable coupling device, a sensor device for measuring an acceleration value of the adjustment element during an adjustment of the adjustment element, and a control device for controlling the drive motor and the coupling device. The control device is configured to calculate a force value or torque value acting on the coupling device with reference to an acceleration value obtained via the sensor device during an adjustment of the adjustment element in a slip state of the coupling device.
