Patents by Inventor Jérôme Utter

Jérôme Utter has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11214210
    Abstract: The invention relates to a motor vehicle device including a one-piece fastening system of the motor vehicle. This fastening system includes a fastening flange, a guiding member having at least one supporting member and a supporting surface participating in maintaining the guiding member in a first position, and an elastically deformable portion exerting a restoring force adapted to restore the guiding member into said first position.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: January 4, 2022
    Inventors: Aurélien Moressee, Jérôme Utter, Bertrand Mazue
  • Publication number: 20210276633
    Abstract: An aerodynamic blade for a motor vehicle includes a shutter mounted on a support shaft having an axis and connected to a chassis of a vehicle by at least one support, and driven in rotation around said axis between an open position and a closed position by a motor assembly. The motor assembly includes one or more elements configured to accumulate mechanical energy and having an adjustable stored energy level to meet a demand for a sufficient torque to change a position of the shutter in a time of less than one second.

  • Patent number: 10137930
    Abstract: A method for controlling an actuator for steering a wheel of a motor vehicle including an electrical actuator controlling steering angle of the steering wheel and a mechanism determining temperature of the actuator. The method includes: completing deactivating the actuator; and a counter-steering operation triggered when the temperature of the actuator is higher than or equal to a determined prevention threshold.

  • Patent number: 9199666
    Abstract: A method for securing control of rear wheels of a motor vehicle including an electric power steering system, the method including: measuring or calculating, using a motor-angle sensor, at least angular position of the electric power steering motor, and measuring or calculating, using a steering-wheel angle sensor, at least angular position of the steering wheel; calculating, using the motor-angle sensor, at least the angular position of the steering wheel; comparing at least the angular position of the steering wheel measured using the steering-wheel angle sensor to the angular position of the steering wheel measured using the motor-angle sensor; and transmitting an alarm signal if the result of the comparison is greater than a predetermined threshold value.
