  • Publication number: 20110214526
    Abstract: An accelerator pedal for a motor vehicle is provided with a damping element having an adjustment unit. A force that counteracts the movement of a pedal arm of the accelerator pedal may be set via the damping element. The adjustment unit is connected to a control unit and adjusts the damping element as a function of signals of the control unit. The force which counteracts the movement of the pedal arm can thus be set as a function of the operating units connected to the control unit or a sensor on the accelerator pedal.

  • Publication number: 20110084522
    Abstract: A vehicle is provided with transparent roof area having at least one roof window tailored to fit into the roof structure. An adjustable darkening against exposure to incident light is provided toward the passenger compartment. The roof area has a first optically structured, immovably fixed surface and a second optically structured, movable surface. The first and second surfaces are arranged one over the other. The second surface here abuts the first surface so that it can slide over it. While the first surface takes up the entire roof window, the second surface is arranged at least in partial areas of the roof window. The second surface is arranged so that it can move relative to the first surface in such a way that the optical structures lying one over the other alter the incident light as a function of position.

  • Publication number: 20110086588
    Abstract: A fan nozzle for an air outlet of a motor vehicle fan includes, but is not limited to a substantially centrically arranged center piece, at least one air guiding element that can be swiveled about a swivel axis oriented radially to the center piece, an adjusting lever substantially oriented perpendicularly to the swivel axis for swiveling the air guiding element and a rotatable adjusting ring for swiveling the adjusting lever. The adjusting ring includes, but is not limited to a slot substantially oriented perpendicularly to the swivel axis for accommodating the adjusting lever. The slot in an axial direction towards the air guiding element includes, but is not limited to an opening for inserting the adjusting lever, and the adjusting lever is accommodated in the slot.

  • Publication number: 20090250964
    Abstract: A motor vehicle is provided that has a window pane, preferably a windshield, which has an upper pane section and a lower pane section. Furthermore, a sun visor for the upper pane section and a cover are provided, which may be moved from a starting position via a first position, in which the cover conceals the upper pane section, into a second position, in which the cover additionally conceals the lower pane section. The sun visor is implemented as light-transparent in a way which attenuates the incident light through the upper pane section.
