Abstract: A method to ensure the dependable representation of a safety-related information includes: entry of at least one input parameter into a processor, computerized processing of the input parameter transforming it into a sequence of image data that represents the input parameter, transmittance of the sequence of image data on to a display and representing the sequence of image data on the display. It is proposed to fead the sequence of image data and to a test unit and to perform a safety test in the form of computerized generation of a test code for the sequence of image data, comparing the test code with several existing reference codes, assigning the identified reference code to a corresponding possible value of the input parameter and comparing it with the value of the input parameter to generate either a positive or negative test result to initiate a safety-focused reaction.

Abstract: A vehicle electrical system includes at least one battery, at least one fan and a device for detecting a critical state in the vehicle electrical system. The fan is activated when a critical state of the vehicle electrical system is detected. In this context, use is made of the fan's ability to store mechanical energy in the form of inertias. The fan operates in a regenerative manner and electrically feeds the mechanically stored energy back into the on-board electrical system.

Abstract: A device and a method for measuring torque for an electromechanical steering system comprises a steering means that is connected in a driving manner to a steering mechanism via a torsion rod which is provided with an input shaft part (101) and an output shaft part (102), an electric servomotor for driving the steering mechanism, the driving activity by the servomotor causing a relative rotational displacement between the input shaft part (101) and the output shaft part (102), a sensor unit (53) for detecting a steering angle (d), a sensor unit (52) for detecting a rotor angle of the servomotor (2), and a virtual torque sensor (54) in which a steering moment (??) is determined from the steering angle (d) and the rotor angle.

Abstract: In a device and a procedure for a steering support for vehicles with an electromechanical steering system, maneuverable vehicles wheels are connected with a steering device (1) as well as an electric servo motor (2). A support angle and/or a motive support can be obtained through the servo motor (2). The support angle (?K) and/or the motive support can be formed by a long-term correction value (?LK) for a long-term correction (41) and/or by a short-term correction value (?KK) for a short-term correction (42) and the long-term correction (41) and/or the short-term correction (42) can be switched on or off, according to the driving situation.
