Abstract: It is provided an adjustment device for a vehicle seat, comprising an output element to which a drive torque can be transferred, and a brake assembly for locking the output element and absorbing, via at least two brake elements adjustably mounted in a brake housing of the brake assembly, forces applied to the output element on the output side, wherein locking, provided via the brake assembly, of the output element can be released in order to rotate the output element in a direction of rotation when a drive torque is applied on the drive side, and, in order to lock the output element, the brake elements are in a locking position in which, when forces are applied on the output side via the output element and are acting in a direction of rotation, at least one of the brake elements bears frictionally against a brake surface of the brake housing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a hydraulically-bonded multilayer panel with at least one face layer and at least one core layer, wherein the method comprises the following steps a. introducing a flowable face mixture into a mold. The face mixture contains at least the following components i. face paste containing at least 1. hydraulic binder and 2. water; and ii. aggregate. The aggregate has a mean diameter d50 determined according to ISO 13320:2009 and/or according to EN 12620 of greater than 100.0 ?m; whereby a face mixture layer is formed; b. introducing a dry to earth-moist core mixture into the mold, wherein the core mixture contains at least the following components i. core paste containing at least 1. hydraulic binder, 2. fines, wherein the fines have a mean diameter d50 determined according to ISO 13320:2009 of up to 100.0 ?m, and 3. water; and ii.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a charge air cooling unit comprising a first charge air cooler having a first end face provided with a first cooling fluid inlet and a first cooling fluid outlet and a second charge air cooler having a second end face provided with a second cooling fluid inlet and a second cooling fluid outlet. Specifically, the second charge air cooler is arranged adjacent to the first charge air cooler such that the first end face and the second end face are oriented in the same direction. Further, the charge air cooling unit comprises a manifold unit connected to the first end face and the second end face for guiding a cooling fluid through the first charge air cooler and the second charge air cooler.

Abstract: A two-stage turbocharged internal combustion engine comprises a low-pressure stage turbocharger mounted at a first end side of an engine block and a high-pressure stage turbocharger mounted at the same first end side of the engine block. The respective turbochargers are mounted via a mounting structure, Which also accommodates the charge air coolers associated with the turbochargers. In order to obtain a compact arrangement and reduce a length of pipe connections between the different components, the different charge air coolers are mounted to mounting structure such that they overlap in a plan view of the internal combustion engine. Further, flow directions of charge air in the different charge air coolers are opposite to each other.

Abstract: A control system is disclosed for operating an internal combustion engine. The control system includes a control unit configured for providing a part load mode that is optimized for slow operation of the engine at loads up to an upper part load limit in the range from 40% to 75% of a maximum engine load. The control unit is also configured for providing a high load mode for engine loads above the upper part load limit. In the part load mode, at least one inlet valve is closed at a closing angle later than in the high load mode.
