Abstract: A device for assisting the driver of a vehicle in the process of parking is provided. The device includes sensors for detecting obstacles in an environment of the vehicle, at least in an environment in front and in back of the vehicle, and a display for indicating the distance between the vehicle and an obstacle identified in the environment. The display includes a first means, with which the distance between the vehicle and an obstacle identified in front of the vehicle can be displayed on a windshield of the vehicle, and a second means, with which the distance between the vehicle and an obstacle identified in back of the vehicle can be displayed on a rear window of the vehicle.

Abstract: A cylinder head cover is provided for an internal combustion engine having a cover sealing surface for a seal. The seal seals a level cylinder head sealing surface of a cylinder head housing and a curved bearing cap sealing surface of a common frontal bearing cap in relation to frontally arranged camshaft bearings. The curved bearing cap sealing surface of the frontal bearing cap has an outer contour having a middle part above the cylinder head sealing surface and having two transition areas, which slope down diagonally from the cylinder head sealing surface and are skewed in relation to the middle part.

Abstract: The lidar arrangement (1) has a transmitter (3) for linearly polarized radiation (12), a receiver (5) with a first receiving device which measures intensity of the backscattered radiation (15) coinciding approximately with the transmitted radiation cone (12) in a polarization plane of the cone and in a perpendicular polarization plane, wherein the receiver further includes a second receiving device which measures the intensity of backscattered radiation (17) outside the transmitted cone (12), the outer backscattered radiation has the shape of a conical shell which surrounds the backscattered conical shell of the first mentioned backscattered radiation (15) and of the transmitted cone (12); the received separate radiation cones (15 and 17) are split in a polarization analyzing optical element into two mutually perpendicular partial light beams, each consisting of an inner partial beam portion (15a, 15b) and an outer partial beam portion (17a and 17b), the inner and outer partial beam portions are separately de
