Patent number: 12269416Abstract: A belt fitting for a safety belt device, having a base section and a latch plate projecting from same. The base section has a belt eyelet with a belt strap running surface, which is in sliding contact with a belt strap guided through the belt eyelet when the safety belt is being worn, wherein, in the transverse direction of the belt strap, the belt strap running surface transitions on both sides at lateral corner regions into a belt eyelet edge opposite the belt strap running surface. The belt strap running surface has a surface contour which provides stable transverse guidance of the belt strap in the belt eyelet under loading conditions, which counteracts a transverse load component acting on the belt strap. A displacement body is formed on the belt eyelet edge-opposite the belt strap running surface, which reduces a gap width of the belt eyelet.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2022Date of Patent: April 8, 2025Assignee: Volkswagen AktiengesellschaftInventors: Carsten Moeker, Falk Lesser, Peter Schoenfisch, Peter Widel, Ernst Glas, Michael Otto

Patent number: 11607721Abstract: A method for producing a model mould core blank uses a ceramic blank fixed to a processing holder. During fixing, a lost core is manufactured from the ceramic blank based on a CNC manufacturing process 3D model, the processing holder being fastened in the running CNC machine. A model blank is produced by casting model material around the lost core while fixing persists. The model blank becomes part of another method for producing a model mould core, wherein an outer contour of a lost model is produced from and/or on the model blank on the basis of a second CNC manufacturing process 3D model, wherein fixing and processing holder fastening also occurs. Another method produces a precision casting mould, in which a ceramic mould is applied to the outer contour of the lost model, and a cast part having a hollow cavity structure is produced by the precision casting mould.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2019Date of Patent: March 21, 2023Assignee: Johannes + Michael Otto GbRInventors: Johannes Otto, Michael Otto

Publication number: 20220044133Abstract: Techniques and solutions are described for analyzing data collections to determine if they may be anomalous as compared with other data collections. For example, one or more values for data elements of a data collection may be unusually high or low, or may represent infrequently occurring values. Or, values of data elements in a data collection may not be anomalous when considered individually, but may be anomalous in combination. A machine learning model is trained with training data collections, where the training data collections include a plurality of data elements. An inference data collection, also having the data elements of the training data collections, is analyzed using the trained machine learning model to provide an anomaly score. The anomaly score can be based at least in part on feature anomaly scores, which indicate anomality of individual data elements of the inference data collection.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2020Publication date: February 10, 2022Applicant: SAP SEInventors: Michael Otto, Min-Ho Hong, Markus Umlauff, Lars Vogelgesang-Moll
