  • Publication number: 20070198190
    Abstract: A utility vehicle has an electronically controlled drive train which has at least one drive unit, one steering system and one braking system. In addition, the motor vehicle has a maneuvering assistance system with a display device, an input device and a control system. The display device displays an actual orientation and an actual position of the vehicle as well as the relatively close surroundings of the vehicle on a monitor. The input device inputs a desired orientation and a desired position for the vehicle. The control system processes a maneuvering algorithm and at the same time actuates the drive train to transfer the vehicle from its actual orientation and actual position into its desired orientation and desired position taking into account the vehicle surroundings.

  • Publication number: 20060125272
    Abstract: A device for determining the seat weight on a vehicle seat assembly, provided with at least one seat rail on which the seat is mounted, and with a weight sensor that interacts with the seat rail. The at least one seat rail is fastened to the vehicle in a fixed manner via the weight sensor and at least one additional fastening device. The seat rail (2) is embedded inside an elastomer structure (5) that serves as a vibration damper while also acting as a step protection and overload protection.

  • Patent number: 6935103
    Abstract: A device for exhaust-gas purification utilizes reduction of nitrogen oxides which are present in the exhaust gas from internal combustion engines by way of gaseous ammonia with an SCR catalytic converter. The functions of the device are monitored with regard to their line paths with connections, valves and sensors by referring to these elements themselves using suitable control circuitry via the evaluation and control unit.

  • Patent number: 6710579
    Abstract: A device with a starter-generator for internal combustion engines, the combustion engine having a centrifugal mass for stabilizing its smoothness of running, with at least one first nonpositive clutch and a flywheel generator, which can be actuated by means of an electrical energy source and is in effective connection with a selectable gearbox, the nonpositive clutch being provided between the flywheel generator, which can be actuated by means of an electrical energy source, and the combustion engine, and the flywheel generator forming the centrifugal mass of the combustion engine.
