  • Patent number: 12179802
    Abstract: A method for operating a vehicle, which can be operated in a manual and an automated driving mode is provided. Depending on a driving situation occurring in the automated driving mode, a take-over request for a user of the vehicle to take over a driving task is issued to the vehicle user. During the automated driving mode the vehicle monitors whether the vehicle user is able to comply with the take-over request at the time of the issued take-over request based on a current seat position of the vehicle user and/or a current seat setting of a vehicle seat of the vehicle user.

  • Publication number: 20240379274
    Abstract: A transformer is disclosed. The transformer has: a magnetic core structure which has two side limbs and one central limb connected to the side limbs. A first winding is arranged around the central limb, and a second winding is arranged around the central limb. The central limb has an air gap which is filled with an electrically non-conductive and magnetically non-conductive insulation element which has a plurality of bores extending through the insulation element and provided with copper plating. The bores are not electrically connected to one another and extend perpendicularly to the air gap.

  • Patent number: 12007088
    Abstract: A composite array has two two-dimensional arrays on a substrate each having two rows of LEDs. The LEDs in each array have the same orientation as all other LEDs in that array. First electrical traces sequentially couple LEDs in the first string and the second string by beginning at opposite corners of the composite array and alternating between rows of each of the first and second arrays. A second electrical trace couples ends of the first and second strings across rows of the composite array. Third electrical traces route outside the composite array and are coupled, respectively, to a beginning of the first string for the row of the composite array containing the beginning of the first string, a beginning of the second string for the other row, the end of the first LED string for the other row, and electrodes of LEDs in the other row.

  • Patent number: 11989187
    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a data model, software architecture, and process for synchronizing information about tags is provided, that permits assignment between different microservices. When a tag is added to an entity, then an assignment is made. The assignment is a record that contains a reference to a unique identifier for the tag and also describes the entity's domain and entity type. Each service uses at least one distinct domain, so tag assignments from different services should not conflict with one another.

  • Publication number: 20240114898
    Abstract: The present invention relates to quaternary ammonium disinfecting cleaner compositions comprising a quaternary ammonium compound, an antimicrobial amine, and an anionic scale inhibitor. Beneficially, the compositions provide sanitizing efficacy without diminished performance and without scale formation when diluted with hard water. The compositions are suitable for inactivating and/or reducing infectious agents, particularly Norovirus, Adenovirus, and Polyomavirus.
