  • Patent number: 10040449
    Abstract: A method for avoiding a rear-end collision between a first vehicle and a second vehicle, in which a distance value is initially read in, which represents a distance, which is detected by a distance sensor of the first vehicle, between the first vehicle and the second vehicle. In particular, the first vehicle is located ahead of the second vehicle in a travel direction of the second vehicle. Using the distance value, a control signal is thereupon generated for controlling the first vehicle to avoid the rear-end collision.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 1, 2017
    Date of Patent: August 7, 2018

  • Patent number: 9567937
    Abstract: In a method for operating a fuel injection device of a motor vehicle, fuel is conveyed under high pressure into a high-pressure reservoir, the pressure of which is controlled with the aid of a pressure regulation and from which fuel is taken for injection via at least one fuel injection valve under the control of a control device. A control pressure deviation of the pressure in the high-pressure reservoir is detected and the existence of a balance disturbance between quantity of fuel supplied to the high-pressure reservoir and quantity of fuel taken from the high-pressure reservoir is deduced from the control pressure deviation. If a balance disturbance exists, operational influencing of the fuel injection device counteracting the balance disturbance is produced and/or a corresponding report is generated.
