Abstract: A valve for gaseous and liquid media comprises a valve body, a flat armature, and an electrically controllable magnetic head having an electromagnet, an inner core, an outer core, and a dividing ring arranged between the latter, the end face part of which, together with a front face of the outer core, forms a stop surface for the flat armature on one and the same plane.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electromagnetic valve having a valve housing (2) and a valve opening (29) with a valve seat (8) and an electric drive coil (3) and a magnetic yoke (11) and a longitudinal centre axis (14). The magnetic yoke (11) is assigned a metallic plate armature (5) which is mounted movably and has an armature disc (48). The armature disc (48) lies sealingly with a sealing surface (9) against the valve seat (8) in a first switching position of the valve, and opens the valve seat (8) in a second switching position of the valve. According to the invention, the valve seat (8) is configured on a valve component (18), wherein the valve component (18) has at least one valve opening (29) which lies at a radial spacing (r) from the longitudinal centre axis (14). The valve seat (8) of the valve opening (29), which valve seat (8) corresponds with direct body contact with the sealing surface (9) of the armature disc (48) of the plate armature (7), consists of metal.

Abstract: A steering column module is proposed comprising a steering angle sensor, wherein the code disc (27) of the steering angle sensor (3) is disposed therein such that the space which can be used for a signal transmission case (1) is enlarged. The steering angle measurement is insensitive to inaccuracies in the steering column (5) and the steering wheel. The steering angle sensor can furthermore be mounted and its function can be checked outside of the vehicle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a steering angle sensor for motor vehicles. The object of the invention is to be able to provide the absolute value of the steering angle position of the steering wheel within a relatively short angle of rotation of the steering wheel. To this end, the invention proposes featuring two preferably concentric circular tracks (1, 2), wherein the first track (1) is used to determine the relative angular movement of the steering wheel and the second track (2) is used to provide the absolute value of the angle position. Advantageous further developments relate to two different coding options.

Abstract: An automatic fog light cutoff, controlled by the headlights, is described for motor vehicles. The switching circuit for the automatic fog light cutoff is comprised of two current leads connected to each other through a normally-open relay. When the fog lights are switched on, the relay that is connected to the ground of the headlight current lead closes the fog light current lead and thus activates the fog lights. If the headlights are switched on, the current flow in the relay between the fog light current lead and the headlight current lead is interrupted, such that the currentless normally-open relay opens the fog light current lead and shuts off the fog lights.
