  • Publication number: 20240131930
    Abstract: An embodiment method for automatized selection and documentation of personal highlights during journeys with a vehicle includes capturing journey data during a journey of the vehicle, the journey data including audio, image, or video data taken of an interior or an exterior of the vehicle, storing selected aspects of the journey data to a non-transient data storage in response to a trigger criteria being met during the journey in an associated driving situation, and generating a selection of personal journey highlights based on the selected aspects stored during the journey for presentation during or after the journey.

  • Patent number: 11128073
    Abstract: A plug connector for establishing an external connection to a printed circuit board, including at least two angled pin-shaped contacts including a first leg, for making contact with a mating plug connector, and a second leg, for making contact with the printed circuit board, an insulating body for accommodating the contacts at least in the region of the first leg, and a contact carrier for accommodating the contacts at the second leg thereof, wherein the contacts, at the end of the second leg, include a stop acting in the axial direction, and the contact carrier includes through-openings including a counter-stop for the second legs and can be moved in the axial direction of the second legs into a housing and be fixed therein. In this way, all the contacts are located on one plane with respect to the printed circuit board and allow the use of SMD or THR processes.

  • Patent number: 11043775
    Abstract: An electric cable shield contacting device for an electric plug connector, and to an electric plug connector having such a cable shield contacting device, wherein the plug connector has an at least partly hollow cylindrical housing having a contact carrier accommodated therein, and having an end cap that can be screwed onto the latter. The cable shield contacting device has a clamping sleeve and a clamping basket, which are correspondingly hollow-cylindrical and engage partly over each other in order to clamp the shield braid between themselves, having a circumferential stowage space for projecting shield braid in the overlap area. The inner circumferential surface of the clamping basket has multiple projecting shield braid driving elements arranged in the form of a circular ring, which engage in a circumferential annular groove on the outer circumferential surface of the clamping sleeve and thus latch clamping basket and clamping sleeve rotatably in each other.
