  • Publication number: 20230364983
    Abstract: A heat exchanger assembly for a motor vehicle includes a heat exchanger formed by additive manufacturing. The heat exchanger includes two end tanks and a plurality of exchanger tubes. The plurality of exchanger tubes extend in a transverse direction relative to a longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle and connects the two end tanks to each other such that fluid is allowed to flow between the two end tanks by the plurality of exchanger tubes. The heat exchanger has a recess formed therein. A first exchanger tube of the plurality of exchanger tubes has at least one change of direction such that the first exchanger tube bypasses the recess at an angle to the transverse direction and runs along a side of the recess.

  • Publication number: 20230366631
    Abstract: A heat exchanger assembly for a motor vehicle includes a heat exchanger having at least one inlet tank, at least one outlet tank, and a plurality of exchanger tubes of an exchanger core. The exchanger tubes connect the inlet tank and the outlet tank and extend along a transverse axis that extends perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the motor vehicle. Each exchanger tube defines a fluid passage path for fluid. A first pair of adjacent exchanger tubes form a first air passage path therebetween for ambient air and a second pair of adjacent exchanger tubes form a second air passage path therebetween for ambient air. The first air passage path has an air flow resistance that is different from an air flow resistance of the second air passage path.

  • Patent number: 11654838
    Abstract: An interior trim for a passenger compartment of a vehicle includes a first carrier, which has an inner side, facing the passenger compartment, and an outer side, directed away from the passenger compartment. A heating element is arranged on the outer side. It is proposed to arrange a matrix and a filler in the first carrier. The filler has a thermal conductivity that is higher than that of the matrix so that heat generated by the heating element can be directed through the filler into the passenger compartment.

  • Patent number: 9446307
    Abstract: A board apparatus for balance exercises and balance games having a platform that is tiltable on a base part, freely rotatable around a vertical axis, and mounted movably along the vertical axis. A restoring part generates restoring forces that counteract motions of the platform and can be modified by the user. The restoring part includes four elastomer springs that are arranged at a distance from the center of the base part. The elastomer springs can be offset inward or outward with respect to the center of the base part, enabling accurate adaptation of the restoring forces. When twisting the platform around the vertical axis, the restoring part always returns the support part into one of two initial positions that are located 180 degree opposite to one another.

  • Patent number: 8985670
    Abstract: A soft top for motor vehicles having an apparatus for the replaceable introduction of a pane, and to a soft top of this type having a pane. The soft top has an apparatus for the replaceable introduction of a pane, comprising a flexible roof element and having a pane receiving gap. The roof element is folded over toward the pane receiving gap in an end region which faces the pane receiving gap. An insert element is provided in a pocket which is formed by the folded-over roof element, and a holding element is provided which extends on a first side of the pane receiving gap between a side of the insert element, which side faces away from the pane receptacle, and the roof element and on a second side of the pane receiving gap, which second side lies opposite the first side.

  • Publication number: 20120264579
    Abstract: A board apparatus for balance exercises and balance games (so-called “balance board”), having modifiable restoring forces, is presented. A support part for the user's body is tiltable on a base part around a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis, freely rotatable around a vertical axis, and mounted movably along the vertical axis. A restoring part generates restoring forces that counteract motions of the support part and can be modified by the user. The restoring part includes four elastomer springs that are arranged parallel to the longitudinal axis and to the transverse axis. By replacement, elastomer springs having a different spring force can be used. In addition, the elastomer springs can be offset inward or outward, enabling even more accurate adaptation of the restoring forces. In the context of a twist around the vertical axis, the restoring part always returns the support part into one of two initial positions that are located 180° opposite to one another.

  • Patent number: 6624802
    Abstract: Process and device for producing input data for a data processing system in which a user stands, sits, kneels, etc. with his entire body on a support plate of a bearing device, such that this support plate is mounted on a base plate which can tilt and/or turn and/or move in the vertical direction. The movements of the support plate according to these degrees of freedom of movement are controlled by the user through the latter shifting his body weight, exerting torques, jumping, etc. A sensor device detects the movements of the support plate and generates corresponding sensor signals, which are fed to the data processing system.
