Abstract: A control module for a vehicle with at least one electric motor and a transmission is provided. The control module has a housing for receiving a transmission control electronics unit and an inverter electronics unit for controlling an electric motor, and a heat sink. The heat sink is disposed between a housing upper part and a housing lower part in such a manner that the heat sink forms part of the housing. The housing lower part and the heat sink form a medium-tight cavity for receiving the inverter electronics unit. The transmission control electronics unit is surrounded by a plastic casing. The transmission control electronics unit with the plastic casing forms the housing upper part. The housing upper part is connected to the heat sink in a thermally conductive manner such that a heat transport from the transmission control electronics unit to the heat sink takes place.

Abstract: A control unit for a vehicle with at least one electric motor and a transmission includes a housing and a heat sink. The housing supports transmission control electronics and converter electronics for controlling an electric motor. The heat sink is arranged between a housing upper part and a housing lower part such that the heat sink forms a part of the housing. The housing upper part is arranged on a raised peripheral rim of the heat sink in a thermally conductive way such that the housing upper part and the heat sink form a media-tight cavity. The converter electronics are connected directly to the heat sink, and the transmission control electronics are connected to the inner side of the housing upper part such that the transport of heat takes place from the transmission control electronics, via the housing upper part, to the rim of the heat sink.

Abstract: The personal water enhancement device disclosed herein is designed for removing particulates and impurities from a volume of water and then adding a preferred combination of vitamins and minerals to such volume of water. In a preferred embodiment, the device may comprise a water purifier and filter, a user interface, a database of water formulations, a container for storing salts, and a mechanism for dispensing salts into water. Such a device may allow a user to add a pre-set or customized concentration of various salts and minerals to said volume of water as per their unique needs, and may further reduce both the environmental burden of plastic bottle production and the financial burden of bottled water consumption.

Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, a bus controller is used in a multi-master system having first and second processors. The bus controller includes a bus arbiter and a first multiplexer. The bus arbiter is coupled to the first and second processors via first and second master buses, respectively, to generate an arbitration select signal based on result of arbitrating bus access information from the first and second processors. The first multiplexer is coupled to the first and second master buses and a first slave bus in a plurality of slave buses to provide device access information selected from the bus access information using the arbitration select signal. The device access information is transferred to a first slave device connected to the first slave bus.
