  • Patent number: 10369968
    Abstract: The invention relates to a capacitive sensor arrangement for a motor vehicle, comprising an elongate, flat measuring electrode and at least one fastening element for fastening the measuring electrode on a support component. It is provided that the fastening element has a retaining tongue, which can be elastically deflected out of a rest position, and the uninstalled measuring electrode can be slid, for the fastening thereof, underneath the retaining tongue via a flat side in an installation motion, which elastically deflects the retaining tongue.

  • Patent number: 10358855
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a linear drive for an adjustment element of a vehicle, with a drive train for generating a driving force along a geometrical drive axis between two coupling points, one of the coupling points comprising a joint part for discharging the driving force, which joint part, in the mounted state, forms a ball and socket joint with a mating joint part, the joint part having a bearing portion, a joining part arranged thereon and a connecting portion arranged thereon. The connecting portion serves for the connection of at least one drive train component of the linear drive to the joint part and has at least one connecting formation which is in engagement with the relevant drive train component, and wherein at least one part of the bearing portion is configured integrally together with the joining part and the connecting portion from at least one plastics material.

  • Patent number: 8590850
    Abstract: A screen adjustment device (1) for a motor vehicle has a screen (6) or screen carrier (2) for mounting a screen, and a control cable drive (4) for adjusting the screen or screen carrier between an open (screen-accessible) position (22) and a parked (screen-hidden) position (24). The control cable drive has a control cable (11), which is coupled to the screen or screen carrier by a driver (15) and which at the two ends is guided over two return elements (12, 13) and at least one cable tensioning unit (18, 19) onto a winding reel (14) coupled to a drive motor (21). The control cable drive has a bearing block (30) for supporting the winding reel, the block together with the cable tensioning unit forming a self-contained pre-assembled unit (20) or being capable of pre-assembly to form such a unit.
