After a first number (N1) of cycles, for a second number (N2) of cycles, the second operating mode has more piston-cylinder units produce power per cycle than required for the currently present power demand. After the second number (N2) of cycles, for a third number (N3) of cycles, in dependence on a currently present power demand per cycle, the second operating mode has so many piston-cylinder units produce power that this results in a torque of the crankshaft adapted to the currently present power demand.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2021Publication date: October 20, 2022Inventors: Johannes Huber, Tobias Keller, Josef Thalhauser, Stefan Koeberl

Patent number: 11328461Abstract: Automatic generation of a road map of a site can be performed. Data records collected by vehicles with a GNSS-positioning system while driving are provided, each data record having a position information representing a two-dimensional or three-dimensional position of the vehicle, an identification reference specific to a corresponding vehicle, a time tag, and a heading information. The data records are assigned to corresponding trips based on the time tag and the identification reference. The trips are mapped within an area and the area is divided into a plurality of uniform tiles. For each tile, a heading information variance of the data records covered by the respective tile is determined. A tile is defined as junction tile, if the tile has a heading information variance higher than a computed threshold variance. An area of interest (AoI) having a perimeter is determined by which a plurality of junction tiles is surrounded.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2020Date of Patent: May 10, 2022Assignee: SAFEMINE AGInventors: Fabian Ismael Furger, Johannes Huber
