Patent number: 12359996Abstract: A pressure transmission device includes a main part and a separating membrane secured to the main part. A pressure chamber is formed between the separating membrane and a surface, with the pressure chamber communicating with a hydraulic path. The separating membrane is: supplied with the process medium from a first membrane side; the pressure chamber and the hydraulic path are filled with a transmission fluid; the separating membrane is connected to the main part; and the separating membrane has a central region. The device additionally comprises a temperature sensor and a mount, wherein the temperature sensor introduced into the mount. The mount is arranged in a central cavity in such a way that a surface of the mount facing the separating membrane lies on a plane relative to the central region such that the surface of the mount acts as an abutment for the separating membrane when pressure is applied.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2021Date of Patent: July 15, 2025Assignee: Endress+Hauser SE+Co.

Publication number: 20250095424Abstract: A method of operating a data recording device for Autonomous Driving, or Advanced Driver Assistant Systems applications for vehicles is provided. The data recording device comprises a data logging unit, a computing unit, a storage unit and a relevancy determination unit including at least one relevancy determination module. The storage unit includes a circular buffer and a persistent storage region. The method comprises retrieving sensor data acquired by sensors, storing the sensor data in the circular buffer, retrieving and storing perception results or neural network embeddings from the sensor data and deciding whether the retrieved perception results or neural network embeddings are considered relevant or irrelevant, and triggering a transfer of the sensor data from the circular buffer to the persistent storage region in case the perception results or neural network embeddings corresponding to the sensor data are considered relevant.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 26, 2024Publication date: March 20, 2025Applicant: Aptiv Technologies AGInventors: Dennis MÜLLER, Ori MAOZ, Michael ARNOLD, Lutz ROESE-KOERNER

Publication number: 20240078794Abstract: A method is provided for validating annotations of objects. Spatial datapoints acquired by a sensor and annotation data are received. The annotation data is associated with the acquired spatial data points and includes an identification of each respective object. Via a processing unit, the annotations of the objects are validated by performing the steps of: determining a target range for at least one property of the objects, determining, from the acquired spatial datapoints and/or from the annotation data, a respective value of the at least one property for each respective object, and for each object, identifying the object as an erroneous object if the respective value of the at least one property is outside the target range for the at least one property. The erroneous object is selected for review regarding erroneous annotation.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: Aptiv Technologies LimitedInventors: Urs ZIMMERMANN, Dennis MÜLLER

Publication number: 20230056115Abstract: Disclosed are aspects of a method, which is carried out in a vehicle, that includes downloading over-the-air from a host system a data collection target including a data value metric that is a function assigning a data value to a piece of data at a given point in time, which represents an amount of progress towards an atomic collection target. The method also includes collecting data from data sources in the vehicle over time while the vehicle is driving and recording the collected data in a storing module. The method additionally includes computing the data values of the recording data according to the data value metric and selecting, from the recording data, recording data snippets of high value within a time window based on the computed data values. The method further includes uploading only the selected recording data snippets of high value to the host system over-the-air.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2022Publication date: February 23, 2023Inventors: Michael Arnold, Sönke Behrends, Peet Cremer, Dennis Müller

Patent number: 11226249Abstract: Disclosed is a pressure measuring device, whose pressure sensor is protected against thermomechanical stresses, comprising a carrier, a support body arranged on the carrier, a pressure sensor arranged on the support body, a first joint including a joint material connecting the support body with the pressure sensor, and a second joint including a joint material connecting the support body with the carrier. The support body has on a face opposite the pressure sensor a first groove configured such that the first groove surrounds a joint area of the support body. The joint area of the support body and a footprint of the first joint are essentially equally large and significantly less than a base area of the pressure sensor opposite the first joint.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2018Date of Patent: January 18, 2022Assignee: Endress+Hauser SE+Co.

Patent number: 10969287Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a filling body for reducing a volume of a pressure measurement chamber, which is to be filled with a pressure transmitting fluid, surrounding a pressure sensor. The filling body includes a recess for receiving the pressure sensor and has a free-standing base projecting into the recess on which the pressure sensor can be mounted. A filling body base supporting the filling body is provided on a side of the filling body facing away from the recess. The filling body can be mounted in an application location in such a way that the filling body base supports the otherwise free-standing filling body. The filling body base has a base surface that is smaller than a base surface of a filling body region that is adjacent to the filling body base and surrounding the recess.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2017Date of Patent: April 6, 2021Assignee: Endress+Hauser SE+Co.
