  • Method for operating a vehicle
    Patent number: 12291225
    Abstract: A vehicle may be operated in a driving mode with autonomous lateral control and in a driving mode with manual lateral control, where the vehicle has a steering lever with a steering lever range, and where the steering lever range represents a circular space which is delimited about 360° by a rotational movement of the steering lever about a steering lever axis of rotation. A method associated with the vehicle may include one or more of the following steps: operating the vehicle in a driving mode with autonomous lateral control; detecting an intrusion in the steering lever range and/or a breaching of a predefined distance from the steering lever range by the vehicle occupant or another object with a sensor unit without the vehicle occupant coming into contact with the steering lever; and signaling the intrusion and/or the breaching of the distance to the vehicle occupant.

  • Discovering network information available via wireless networks
    Patent number: 12294939
    Abstract: Network information may be discoverable without requiring a connection to that network. For example, Access Network Query Protocol (“ANQP”) may allow a device to discover information about a network prior to the device associating with that network. In other words, ANQP allows a network terminal to request additional network information prior to establishing network capability. The additional network information that may be discoverable includes network latency, cellular capabilities, hotspot capabilities, mobility capabilities, neighbor reports, station identification, and multiple hotspot session identification.

  • Dynamic quick connector coupling
    Patent number: 12292143
    Abstract: A coupling includes first and second housings, a valve element, and a guide link. The first housing is rotatable relative to the second housing. The first housing has helical cam slots and the second housing has linear cam tracks. The guide link is in the first housing and is fixed with the valve element. The guide link carries cam rollers. The cam rollers ride in the helical slots and the linear cam tracks. Rotation of the first housing causes rotation of the helical slots. The rotation of the helical slots induces the cam rollers to travel along the helical slots and along the linear cam tracks such that the guide link translates linearly. The valve element moves with the guide link between open and closed positions.

  • PDM transmission with articulated torque transfer
    Patent number: 12292089
    Abstract: A ball-CV style transmission suitable for use in a Positive Displacement Motor (PDM). A shaft provides shaft wings received into housing receptacles on a housing. A Unitary Torque Transfer Element (UTTE) is interposed between each shaft wing and housing within each housing receptacle, with a spherical surface on the UTTE received into a recess preferably on the housing. The UTTEs float within their corresponding housing receptacles so as to maintain torque transfer contact between all thrust surfaces during articulated rotation of the shaft with respect to the housing. The UTTEs preferably float generally radially towards the shaft centerline as angular deflection increases during articulated rotation.
