  • Patent number: 12131860
    Abstract: An arrangement and a method for the gradual shutoff of potential in high voltage technology. The arrangement has at least one armature body, an electrically insulating film, and electrically conductive regions. The electrically conductive regions are arranged between layers of the electrically insulating films, and at least parts of the electrically insulating film are arranged around the at least one armature body. The arrangement is used in direct current applications. Resistive compensation currents are reduced and/or avoided along the electrically insulating film, and/or by an armature body, which functions as a first gradual potential shutoff coating, and/or by way of the electrical contacting of the outermost electrically conductive region between layers of electrically insulating film via an electrical contact through an opening in the outer layer of the insulating film.

  • Publication number: 20240227668
    Abstract: A motor vehicle includes a central light control unit and a plurality of interior light modules, each of which includes a single light source or a plurality of light sources. The motor vehicle also includes a data bus via which the central light control unit and the interior light modules are coupled to one another. The central light control unit is configured to transmit control commands to the interior light modules in order to trigger motor vehicle interior lighting effects, wherein control information, which is included in the control commands and includes at least one color value and one brightness value for the interior light modules, is created based on runtime-variable input data. The runtime-variable input data is based on current ambient conditions of the motor vehicle and/or variable data sources of the motor vehicle.

  • Patent number: 11128726
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for communicating machine control data of a mechatronic system in a network having publisher and subscriber network users that send control data via the network using a data interchange standard that supports a publish/subscribe communication model. In order to make such a method simple, fast and robust, it is proposed that a machine controller of the mechatronic system can be configured indiscriminately as a subscriber or publisher network user to communicate the control data, As a publisher, the machine controller provides the control data with a message identifier, encodes them as a network message using the data interchange standard and sends the network message via the network. As subscriber, the machine controller receives a network message intended therefor using a message identifier via the network and decodes the network message as control data using the data interchange standard.
