Patents by Inventor Eugen Sworowski

Eugen Sworowski has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11884339
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for operating a steering system of a motor vehicle. A voltage reserve is determined as a function of a compensation trajectory for a second actuating voltage and as a function of a modulation limit. A first actuating voltage with a fundamental frequency is determined as a function of the voltage reserve. A compensation voltage with a sixth-order harmonic with respect to the fundamental frequency of the first actuating voltage is determined. The second actuating voltage is determined for an inverter as a function of the first actuating voltage and as a function of the compensation voltage.

  • Patent number: 10868459
    Abstract: An electromechanical actuator for rack-and-pinion steering includes a stator, rotor, and electronic system. The electronic system includes at least one first electronic sub-system and a second electronic subsystem, each operatively connected to the stator and the rotor. The at least one first electronic sub-system is arranged at least on a first circuit carrier plane and a second circuit carrier plane, and includes a first power output stage, a first control unit, and a first rotor position sensor arrangement. The second electronic sub-system is arranged at least on the first circuit carrier plane and a third circuit carrier plane, and includes a second power output stage, a second control unit, and a second rotor position sensor arrangement. The first, second and third circuit carrier planes are arranged perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the rotor, and are spaced apart from each other along the axis of rotation.

  • Patent number: 10363955
    Abstract: A control device is configured for use in a steering system in a vehicle with electromotive servo assistance. The control device includes control device elements and electronic components for actuating a servo motor arranged in each control device element. The control device has chambers configured to accommodate the electronic components of the control device elements. The chambers are sealed off from one another in a watertight manner at least up to a defined filling level. The electronic components of the control device elements are split over different chambers.

  • Publication number: 20190106147
    Abstract: A method for operating a steering system of a motor vehicle with a power steering system for introducing an assist torque into a steering gearbox includes operating at least two electromechanical actuators on a common vehicle electrical system or on different vehicle electrical systems. The method further includes determining an overvoltage of the vehicle electrical system. The method further includes determining a respective setpoint assist torque of the at least two electromechanical actuators such that the overvoltage of the vehicle electrical system is reduced.
