Patent number: 12015263Abstract: A method for operating a tailgate of a motor vehicle, in particular a pickup, which is driven by means of an electric motor and delimits a cargo area. A disassembled state is detected, and energization of the electric motor is inhibited. Furthermore, the invention relates to a motor vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2022Date of Patent: June 18, 2024Assignee: Volkswagen AktiengesellschaftInventor: Heino Schalyo

Publication number: 20230313589Abstract: A method for operating a flap assembly of a motor vehicle, a drive assembly for the motorized adjustment of the flap, a motor vehicle lock, and a flap sensor assembly for identifying a flap position, wherein the drive assembly has at least one drive which is restorably movement-coupled to the flap, with an electric drive motor, wherein the motor vehicle lock fixes the flap in a closed position in a main locked state, wherein the drive motor is activated by a drive control system of the drive assembly depending on the identified flap position. It is proposed that when the identified flap position reaches a predetermined braking initiation position situated before an end position in a movement procedure of the flap, the drive motor is activated in a braking routine by the drive control system in such a way that the drive assembly produces a motorized braking effect.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 24, 2023Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Heino Schalyo, Matthias Seubert, Christoph Haberberger, Philipp Konarski

Patent number: 11667336Abstract: A drive arrangement for adjusting a flap of a motor vehicle about a body including a motor, a drivetrain, and a freewheel mechanism. The drivetrain is disposed between the motor and the flap. The freewheel mechanism provided with a drive component including a transmitting element, and a driven component provided with a receiving element coupled to the transmitting element. During motoric movement of the flap between the closed and the open position over at least a portion of the pivot angle, the motor actuates the drive component and displaces the transmitting element, from a neutral position, conjointly with the receiving element along a displacement path.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2021Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Inventors: Heino Schalyo, Christoph Haberberger, Vitali Wendland, Adam Laczo

Patent number: 11536074Abstract: A drive arrangement configured to pivot a tailgate pivotally coupled to a vehicle body, between an open position and a closed position and including a freewheel mechanism, a drive shaft, and a motor. The freewheel mechanism may be rotatably coupled to the vehicle body and defining an opening provided with an inner periphery that includes a first cam element and a second cam element. The drive shaft may be fixed to the vehicle body and extending into the opening. The drive shaft may define an outer periphery that includes a third cam element and a fourth cam element. A motor may be coupled to the freewheel mechanism and may be configured to rotate the freewheel mechanism so that the first cam element engages the third cam element to pivot the tailgate from the closed position towards the open position.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2020Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: Brose Fahrzeugteile SE & Co. Kommanditgesellschaft, BambergInventors: Heino Schalyo, Christoph Haberberger, Vitali Wendland

Publication number: 20220290483Abstract: A drive device for adjusting a vehicle assembly including an electromotive adjustment drive to adjust the vehicle assembly and a control device for controlling the adjustment drive, the control device configured to actuate the adjustment drive in an automatic mode, for adjusting the vehicle assembly with a predetermined rotational speed, and in a servo mode for providing a supporting force during a manual adjustment of the vehicle assembly by a user. The control device includes a speed regulation module for determining a first setpoint current value in dependence on a rotational speed of the adjustment drive, a servo regulation module for determining a second setpoint current value in dependence on a load acting on the vehicle assembly and a current regulation module for regulating a current of the adjustment drive.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 5, 2020Publication date: September 15, 2022Applicant: Brose Fahrzeugteile SE & Co. Kommanditgesellschaft, BambergInventors: Alex KROMER, Marvin HOHLFELD, Maximilian KUNZELMANN, Heino SCHALYO

Publication number: 20220235596Abstract: A drive arrangement for motorized adjustment of a cargo-space-tailgate arrangement of a motor vehicle the cargo-space-tailgate arrangement including a cargo-space tailgate adjustable between an open position and a closed position, the drive arrangement includes an electric drive, for providing a drive force, and a control arrangement for activating the electric drive. The drive arrangement includes an output element and a drive coupling. The output element transmits the drive force to the drive coupling for motorized adjustment of the cargo-space tailgate. The control arrangement activates the drive in an adjustment routine for motorized adjustment of the cargo-space tailgate to assist an actuation action introduced manually the cargo-space tailgate, and the control arrangement activates the adjustment routine based on an activation preset that is dependent on at least one friction parameter of the drive.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 26, 2022Publication date: July 28, 2022Applicant: Brose Fahrzeugteile SE & Co.
