Abstract: A method for operating a flap arrangement is provided, a drive arrangement having at least one drive, a sensor arrangement and a control arrangement coupled to the drive arrangement and to the sensor arrangement, sensor values relating to an operator action performed by an operator outside of the motor vehicle being sensed by the sensor arrangement, the sensed sensor values being checked by the control arrangement in a check routine for the presence of a valid operator action, and the drive arrangement being caused by the control arrangement to effect a motorized adjustment. A predefined selection of characteristic values can be determined from the sensor values in the check routine, a recognition value of the operator action can be calculated from the determined characteristic values using a predefined weighting function with respective weighting parameters, and the operator action can be classified as a valid operator action.

Abstract: A method for actuating a motor-driven flap assembly of a vehicle. A control assembly is provided for actuating a motor drive assembly which is paired with the flap assembly, and a distance sensor which is coupled to the control assembly is also provided. Sensor signals are detected by the distance sensor in order to detect an operator action carried out by an operator of the vehicle, wherein the sensor signals are analyzed by the control assembly in an analysis routine in order to detect a specified operator action, and the chive assembly is actuated by the control assembly upon detecting the specified operator action. In some embodiments, when a specified charging criterion is satisfied, the analysis routine is carried out by the control assembly in a specified charging mode, in which the analysis of the sensor signals is modified on the basis of an analysis during a normal operation.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for controlling a drive arrangement for a flap of a motor vehicle by a control arrangement, wherein the drive arrangement comprises a first electric drive and a second electric drive that are coupled in each case to the flap in terms of providing a drive, wherein in a determining routine current values that occur during the motorized adjustment of the flap are determined for the drives, wherein in an anti-trap protection routine the determined current values of the two drives are monitored to establish if at least one a predetermined trapping event criterion exists that represents a trapping event and wherein in the event that a trapping event criterion has occurred a trapping event routine is performed. It is proposed that a trapping event criterion is defined by virtue of the fact that a predetermined relationship of the current value of the first drive to the current value of the second drive exceeds or is below a trapping event threshold.
