  • Publication number: 20040240758
    Abstract: The invention relates to a semicircular bearing element comprising a supporting layer (5) and a sliding layer (7) which is applied to the same. A holding element (6) projecting from a side of the supporting layer (5) facing away from the sliding layer (7) is provided, said holding element engaging in a correspondingly embodied recess (10) in a bearing housing element (2) in order to anchor the bearing element in the mounted state. The aim of the invention is to simplify the production and assembly of the bearing element. To this end, the holding element (6) is embodied in a polygonal manner in a cross-sectional plane, perpendicular to a radial direction (8) of the bearing element.

  • Patent number: 6078853
    Abstract: A device for use in vehicles with electric or hybrid drive for monitoring the air conditioning of a vehicle based on health and energy consumption readings. The device monitors the operation of the air conditioning to determine when differentials between outside and inside temperature are excessive, and/or inside atmospheric humidity is too low and/or air quality is poor. An occurrence of any of these conditions results in the system suggesting to the driver that he should interrupt travel to the desired destination. In addition, if necessary, the device performs a vehicle range estimate as a function of the selected air conditioning operation.

  • Patent number: 5540617
    Abstract: A filter arrangement of a heating or air-conditioning system in a motor vehicle consists of at least two filters which can be flowed through one after the other. Non-confusable filter exchange is achieved with the filters having different external dimensions and their reception locations having reception sizes assigned to the respective external dimensions so that each reception location is only able to receive a predetermined filter.
