Abstract: The invention relates to a motor-driven covering device (2) for covering and exposing a charging connection (8) arranged on the body (4) of an electric vehicle (6) with respect to a vehicle exterior (16), comprising a cover flap (10) for covering the charging connection (8) in a closed state (I), a motor (12) operatively connected to the cover flap (10) for driving an opening movement and a closing movement of the cover flap (10), a power transmission means/device (14) for transmitting a motor power of the motor (12) for carrying out the opening movement and the closing movement of the cover flap (10), guide means/element (18) for guiding the cover flap (10) along a movement path during the opening movement and the closing movement of the cover flap (10), the motor-driven covering device (2) being configured in such a manner that the cover flap (10) can be moved along the body (4) of the electric vehicle (6) in a motor-driven manner during the opening and closing movement, wherein the body (4) at least partia

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (2) for controlling and guiding a closure element (4) for closing a motor vehicle cooling module, comprising a first control element (10a) for controlling an opening and a closing movement of the closure element (4), a second control element (10b) for controlling an opening and a closing movement of the closure element (4), a guide element (8), which is arranged directly between the first and the second control element (10a, 10b), for guiding the closure element (4) during an opening and a closing movement, wherein the device (2) is formed in multiple parts and is assembled from parts produced separately from one another.

Abstract: An actuation mechanism for at least partially asynchronously actuating two closure devices of an air flow control assembly for a vehicle, comprising a control element that is/can be connected to an actuator. This is operatively connected via a first coupling part provided for actuating the first closure device and via a second coupling part provided for actuating the second closure device in such a way that a movement of the control element occurring about an axis of rotation can be converted into a shifting of the two coupling parts via a slide controller having corresponding control pins and bearing grooves. The control element having the control pins is integrated at least partially between the two coupling parts which are at least partially overlapping and can be shifted relative to the control element. The control pins engage at least partially into the bearing grooves positioned on the coupling parts.

Abstract: A hinge for opening and closing a tank or charging flap has two lever arms which are connected to one another in an articulated manner. A first lever arm is designed for connection to a tank or charging flap and a second lever arm is designed for connection to a component fastened to a vehicle. A drive is provided in order to pivot the two lever arms relative to one another about a pivot axis. The drive is an actuator that is received on or in one of the lever arms.

Abstract: An air flap device for use in a motor vehicle can have an air flap unit comprising a plurality of air flaps pivotally supported about an axis of rotation between a closed position and an open position, wherein the air flaps each have a cover section for covering and uncovering air passages and a fastening section for fixing the air flaps in the air flap device, a drive unit for driving the air flaps, a control unit for controlling an operational capability of the air flaps the control unit having corresponding receiving sections for receiving the fastening sections of the individual air flaps, the air flap device being configured in such a way that a detectable force is generated in the event of a malfunction or non-function of an air flap, wherein the detectable force results from a direct interaction between the fastening section of at least one air flap and the corresponding receiving section of the air flap in the control unit.
