Abstract: Multiple applications are displayed. A request to change a display of a first application is received. A determination is made regarding how displays for one or more other applications should change in response to changing the display of the first application in order to avoid conflict with the display of the first application. The display of the first application is changed. The one or more displays for the one or more other applications are automatically changed in response to changing the display of the first application in order to avoid conflict with the display of the first application.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for controlling the speed of a motor vehicle and the distance of the motor vehicle to least one motor vehicle driving ahead, where at least the speed v of the motor vehicle and the distance a to the motor vehicle driving ahead are determined with the aid of a detector having a distance sensor, where the traveling speed v is adjusted in response to the measured distance a deviating from a setpoint trailing distance as, and where the engineering problem of controlling the speed and the distance of a motor vehicle to least one preceding motor vehicle is solved in both a simple and reliable manner, in that an intervention distance ai′ is determined which is less than the range of the distance sensor, and that the traveling speed v is adjusted at a distance a which is less than the intervention distance ai.

Abstract: A method is for regulating the speed of an automobile and the distance of the automobile from at least one automobile driving in front during a docking process, the driving speed of the automobile being greater than that of the automobile in front. According to the method, a detection device with a distance sensor is used to determine at least the speed of the automobile, the relative speed and the distance from the automobile in front, and the value of a normal acceleration for a braking operation of the vehicle is calculated according to the difference between a predetermined normal desired following distance and the distance and the relative speed.

Abstract: A support platform for handling fermentation tanks, particularly alcoholic fermentation tanks, characterised in that it comprises a fixed bedplate (10), preferably of stainless steel, a swingable frame (11) mounted upon said bedplate (10) and hinged on a horizontal axle (12), a turnable frame (13) that may be turned on a vertical central axis, said turnable frame being connected to said swingable frame by means of a conventional center plate (14), as well as means for swinging said swingable frame (11) and means for turning said turnable frame (13).

Abstract: In a fuel tank (1) with a plug which is to be opened, in particular, during maintenance work, a plugging part (6) is fastened in a trough-like depression (2) of the wall of the fuel tank (1) by means of a nut (7). The nut (7) has a thread (9) intended for tapping into a bead (5) of the fuel tank (1). As a result, the fuel tank (1) can be manufactured particularly cost-effectively from geometrically simple parts.

Abstract: A plastic container comprising two half-shells which are produced by means of injection molding and have parts of the components integrally formed on them during the injection molding. This does away with the need for fastening said components in the plastic container, with the result that the installation process is simplified to a considerable extent. At the same time, installation errors are largely ruled out. The plastic container is suitable for use in motor vehicles, preferably as a fuel tank.

Abstract: A filler neck for the introduction of fuel into a fuel tank of a motor vehicle is constructed of at least two interconnected injection-molded half shells, each half shell having outwardly curved regions which form a filler pipe and vent lines. Also, receptacles for valves and filters are integrally formed in the outwardly curved regions.

Abstract: A method for controlling the speed of a motor vehicle and the distance of a motor vehicle to at least one motor vehicle driving ahead includes the steps of: inputting a setpoint trailing distance to the motor vehicle driving ahead; determining, in accordance with at least one detector, at least the speed of the motor vehicle, the distance, and the speed relative to the motor vehicle driving ahead; decelerating or accelerating the motor vehicle in response to the detected distance deviating from the setpoint trailing distance; calculating, in response to the motor vehicle driving ahead being lost from the detection range of the detector (target loss), the speed of the motor vehicle driving ahead from the relative speed determined prior to losing the target; and calculating the actual distance from the driving speed of the motor vehicle.

Abstract: The present invention relates to analogues and derivatives of GRP which have a protracted profile of action, as well as their use in treatment of e.g. Type 2 diabetes and obesity.

Abstract: A delivery device (2) for delivering fuel, having a delivery pump (3) and a fuel filter (7), has a bypass line (9) which is conducted past the fuel filter (7). When new, the delivery pump (3) delivers fuel through the fuel filter (7). After the fuel filter (7) has become clogged with dirt, the fuel is delivered by the bypass line (9) through a second fuel filter (10). By this means, pollution of the environment with fuel is kept particularly low.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for locking the steering column of a motor vehicle steering mechanism, with a locking device arranged within the zone of the steering column, and with a central controller electrically connected to said locking device, whereby the locking device comprises an electrical setting member for displacing a slidably arranged locking element from its unlocking into its locking position, and a sensor for monitoring a predetermineable condition of the locking device. In order to make it possible for the condition of the locking device to be monitored by means of the sensor also while the motor vehicle is driving, without causing thereby any increase of the safety risk, the invention proposes that the sensor be connected to the central controller in such a way that if the supply voltage for the locking device is switched off, the central controller is capable of scanning and evaluating the condition of the locking device detected by the sensor.

Abstract: A curve radius of a roadway is determined by measuring the difference in wheel speed of at least two vehicle wheels and the rate of yaw of the vehicle, and hence the curve radius, is determined therefrom. The wheel speeds are determined by measuring the time required for the wheel to rotate by a fixed rotational angle, based on a fixed number of pulses produced by a pulse transmitter which is part of an ABS or ASR system for the vehicle. The method provides considerably improved accuracy using simple, vehicle-contained components and various parameters can be taken into account simultaneously.

Abstract: A method and device for regulating speed and/or distance of a first vehicle to at least one other vehicle driving ahead of the first vehicle in connection with a passing maneuver. The method or device provides a detection system associated with the first vehicle which continuously detects the vehicle directly in front and the position of the turn signal lights, as well as the yaw rate and/or steering position of the first vehicle. The method or device of the present invention further provides an evaluation unit which continuously ascertains setpoint value data for regulating the speed of the first vehicle and its distance to the at least one other vehicle directly in front from this data.

Abstract: Filler neck for a fuel tank of a motor vehicle Filler necks have, as well as the filler pipe, additional lines for venting, valves and compensating reservoirs. Due to the multiplicity of individual parts and connections, filler necks involve a high outlay in terms of assembly and, because of the connections, have high fuel permeation. The new filler neck is to be easily mountable and have low permeation values.
