  • Publication number: 20160144527
    Abstract: A cold cuts cutting machine for cutting food, such as sausage, cheese or meat, for example, into slices, in particular for simultaneously slicing at least two pieces of stick-shaped food by means of a cutting blade. A minimization or a cancellation, respectively, of adhesive and frictional forces or the production of a noncutting pass, respectively, is to be make possible thereby and the supply of the food, which is to be sliced, is to be improved further. The cold cuts cutting machine includes a lower and an upper traction belt, between which the product bar can be guided such that the lower traction belt can carry out a relative movement, which is substantially vertical to the conveying direction of the product bar, with respect to a cutting latch.

  • Patent number: 9174641
    Abstract: In a device and a method for increasing the safety of a motor vehicle, a first sensor unit (2) detects the environment, in particular free spaces and objects (0) and the position and motion thereof, a second sensor unit (20) detects the environment state, a third sensor unit (30) detects the vehicle state, and a fourth sensor unit (40) detects the driver inputs. The respective data from the several sensor units are combined. In consideration of the data, a driving safety coordinator (6) calculates the risk of collision on the basis of a risk evaluation, and determines pre-collision phases (P1, P2, P3, P4a, P4b) of the motor vehicle (1) with regard to the object (0).

  • Patent number: 9108600
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for performing open-loop or closed-loop control of the driving stability of a vehicle and for avoiding collisions with an object located in the traffic lane. The invention also relates to a closed-loop driving stability controller. The method according to aspects of the invention comprises: determining based on environmental signals whether a critical situation in terms of driving dynamics, in particular an imminent collision, exists, calculating an avoidance path if a critical situation in terms of driving dynamics exists, determining based on a plurality of input variables pressures for individual brakes of the vehicle, and activating preparatory measures of the driving dynamics regulator, in particular dynamic switching over of closed-loop control parameters if the critical situation in terms of driving dynamics exists. The device and the closed-loop driving stability controller are suitable for carrying out the method.
