  • Publication number: 20090165451
    Abstract: The invention relates to a hydraulic fluid accumulator (30) having a high-pressure chamber (32) and a low-pressure chamber (33), wherein the high-pressure chamber (32) provided with an equalizing volume (36) is disposed in the low-pressure chamber (33). Provided at the hydraulic fluid accumulator (30) is an external connection (34) for the equalizing volume (36), by means of which connection the equalizing volume (36) can be filled with a gas having a predefinable pressure.

  • Publication number: 20080142096
    Abstract: The invention relates to an actuating assembly (1) for the electrohydraulic actuation of displaceable elements in a vehicle. Said actuating assembly (1) comprises a pump unit (4), an electric motor (3) that drives the pump unit (4), a hydraulic fluid tank (2) and at least one valve block (5) for controlling a volumetric flow that is generated by the pump unit (4). The pump unit (1) is equipped with a control unit (20) for electrically controlling the electric motor (3) and the valve block (5).

  • Publication number: 20080134547
    Abstract: The invention relates to a position determination and regulation system for working devices arranged on the working arms of mobile machine-tools. Said system comprises at least one sensor and an emission/reception unit. The determination and transmission of position co-ordinates (x, y) and/or an incline (?) of the working device between the at least one sensor and the emission/reception unit are carried out in a contact-free manner.

  • Patent number: 6879121
    Abstract: A method for controlling an electric drive motor (10) of a motor vehicle adjusting drive by means of applying a variable voltage to it should be improved so that an EMV interference suppression can be inexpensively executed. To this end, a controllable resistor (12, 18, 20, 22) is used, which supplies the voltage applied to the drive motor (10).

  • Patent number: 6630808
    Abstract: The method of electronically monitoring and controlling a process for moving and/or positioning at least one window and/or sunroof of a motor vehicle to provide protection from pinching includes supplying an input variable, for example drive voltage, and an output variable, for example window position, to a detection device; storing a model in the form of a differential equation describing the process for moving and/or positioning the window and/or sunroof in terms of process parameters in the detection device; optimizing the process parameters of the model according to the input and output variables and storing values of the optimized process parameters in the detection device for the purpose of monitoring; continually evaluating current values of the process parameters obtained by the optimizing by comparing the current values with the stored values; calculating a process correcting quantity in the detection device for adjusting the window and/or sunroof according to the comparing and influencing the proces
