Abstract: In a method for the automatic adjustment of the speed of a motorcycle during a turning maneuver, the current position of incline of the motorcycle is determined and is compared with a target position of incline, the speed being reduced or increased as a function of the difference.

Abstract: A method for driving safety when vehicles are driving in convoy, in which a driver classification is performed during travel based on instantaneous sensor variables, and in which a recommendation for the vehicle order in the convoy is output.

Abstract: An exhaust gas treatment device (1), for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, includes a tubular housing (2) and an insert (5) arranged replaceably in the housing (2). The insert (5) has an exhaust gas treatment element (7) fixed in a tubular jacket (6) and is able to be pushed into the housing (2) in a pushing-in direction (9), which extends parallel to a central longitudinal axis (10) of the housing (2). The jacket (6) has, on an outer side (15), an axial stop (14), axially in contact with an axial counterstop (18) in the pushing-in direction (9) and is formed on the housing (2) on an inner side (17). A locking element (19) is axially supported on a support contour (20), is formed on the jacket (6) in the pushing-in direction (9), and is provided on the inner side (17) of the housing.

Abstract: A stabilization apparatus for a two-wheeled vehicle includes a rotationally mounted gyroscope and a drive unit, as well as a rotational-direction reversal unit disposed between the drive unit and the gyroscope.

Abstract: An exhaust system for an internal combustion engine includes an exhaust gas flow duct (14), through which exhaust gas can flow in an exhaust gas main flow direction (A), and a reactant injection device (18) for injecting reactant in a reactant injection area (16) of the exhaust gas flow duct (14) in a reactant main injection direction (R). The reactant main injection direction (R) and the exhaust gas main flow direction (A) in the reactant injection area (16) are not parallel and not at right angles to one another.

Abstract: A method for braking a vehicle, a braking intervention being performed on at least one wheel of the vehicle, a total brake force for the braking intervention being generated by a hydraulic unit in the vehicle on the one hand, and, on the other hand, by at least one electric motor assigned to the one wheel, which at all times supports the brake force generated by the hydraulic unit, the total brake force being generated by modulating a brake force generated by the hydraulic unit and by modulation of the brake force generated by the electric motor on the at least one wheel, the brake force of the hydraulic unit and the brake force of the electric motor being added to yield the total brake force, and an amount of the particular brake force being controlled by a controller as a function of a driving situation of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method for operating a drive unit having at least one drive machine which generates the torque supplied by the drive unit, a first parameter, which causes a slow change in the torque supplied by the drive unit, and a second parameter, which causes a rapid change of the torque, being used for setting a setpoint torque. Prior to raising the setpoint torque to a target torque, the first parameter is selected according to an actuating torque, which is greater than the setpoint torque; and the second parameter is selected in such a way that the drive unit continues to supply the setpoint torque. Furthermore, a control device for a drive unit is also described.

Abstract: In a method for generating a difference moment that is acting on a vehicle, the actuation of a wheel brake unit sets a difference moment between two vehicle wheels, and a difference moment is generated via an additional actuator, separately from the wheel brake unit. The setting of the desired difference moment takes place primarily via the additional actuator, the wheel brake unit being used in supplementary fashion in the event that the difference moment is unable to be set via the additional actuator.

Abstract: A device for assisting a parking maneuver of a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, into a parking space situated transverse to the vehicle, having a parking space measuring device with a sensor system, and an evaluation unit, connected to the sensor system, for determining a parking trajectory of the vehicle into the parking space. For precise parking assistance, a selection device connected to the evaluation unit is provided for selecting a parking trajectory from a number of different parking trajectories determined by the evaluation unit. Also described is a method for assisting a parking maneuver of a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, into a parking space situated transverse to the vehicle by use of such a device.
