Abstract: A housing for a control device, in particular for a pneumatic control device, is disclosed. The housing comprises the following components: a housing wall, which forms a receiving space for receiving an electronic component of the control device and has at least one opening, and a flexible insulation element, which surrounds the at least one opening in such a way that the flexible insulation element, together with the housing wall, defines a sound insulation space, wherein the flexible insulation element comprises at least one element selected from the group consisting of a flexible film, a flexible textile fabric and a flexible foam layer.

Abstract: A pneumatic device for the variation of a contour of a seat bearing surface of a vehicle seat is disclosed. The pneumatic device includes a first foil portion, a second foil portion which is connected to the first foil portion along at least one connecting seam such that a bladder for the variation of the contour of the seat bearing surface, having a bladder chamber which can be filled with pressure medium and having an inflow opening for the inflow of the pressure medium, is formed, and a throttle element, which is arranged in the interior of the bladder chamber and which is designed to throttle a pressure medium flow flowing in through the inflow opening.

Abstract: An adjustment element for a vehicle seat. The adjustment element includes a bladder which can be filled with a pressure medium and which includes at least one first and one second film, which films are interconnected along a connection seam so as to form a bladder chamber. The adjustment element further includes a pressure medium line for letting the pressure medium into the bladder chamber, the pressure medium line being disposed at the connection seam between the at least one first and second films. The adjustment element also includes a pressure medium directing device for directing the pressure medium flow direction when the pressure medium flows into the bladder chamber, the pressure medium direction device being designed so as to direct the pressure medium flow away from the centre of the bladder chamber in order to minimize flow noises.

Abstract: A method for automatically setting a component of a vehicle that can be automatically set, wherein the vehicle has a seat that can be electrically adjusted has the following steps: adjusting (101, 102) the seat (FS) or a seat part (SL) over a specified adjustment travel or adjustment angle, determining (201) the drive load occurring during adjustment of the seat or seat part and calculating a weight value (W) therefrom, comparing (301) the calculated weight value with weight values (W1, W2, . . . , Wm) calculated and stored in advance, setting (401) the component based on the comparison result. The method is used particularly in vehicles having seats that can be electrically adjusted and having vehicle components that can be adapted automatically, e.g., belt tensioner (G), airbag (AB), steering wheel (L), gas, brake, and clutch pedals (P), interior/exterior mirror, and much more.
