  • Patent number: 10266211
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a spare wheel cavity for a vehicle. The spare wheel cavity is configured to store a collision-sensitive object and comprises a bottom wall and a side wall. The spare wheel cavity further comprises a carrier plate directly or indirectly attached to the bottom wall and a reinforcement structure located in or at the bottom wall in front of the carrier plate and/or below a front portion of the carrier plate. The carrier plate is configured to carry the collision-sensitive object on an object carrying portion of the carrier plate. The disclosure further relates to an arrangement comprising the spare wheel cavity, as well as a collision-sensitive object and/or a spare wheel. The disclosure also relates to a method of reducing a risk of a stack-up problem in case of a rear collision.

  • Publication number: 20050027466
    Abstract: A system, method and computer program product are provided, including: (a) receiving a plurality of battery output metrics from at least one mobile device having a battery over a communication network at a central station; and (b) analyzing the plurality of battery output metrics at the central station. The method can include: (c) storing the plurality of battery output metrics in a database with an index associated with the at least one mobile device. The communication network can include a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN), can be wireless or wired, or can include an IEEE standard 802.11-compliant wireless communication network. Alternatively, the method can include a step (c) comparing analyzed battery performance metrics of a first of the at least one mobile device with analyzed battery performance metrics of a second of the at least one mobile device.
