  • Publication number: 20190023322
    Abstract: An auxiliary frame for a vehicle including a first shell element and a second shell element, rigidly connected to the first shell element, to define a cavity. The auxiliary frame includes a cross bridge for bearing a vehicle drive unit. The cross bridge is connected by a screwed connection to the first shell element and/or to the second shell element. The auxiliary frame includes a sleeve-like spacer element for the inserting of a screw for vehicle body connection. The spacer element is arranged at one of its ends at a through-hole of the first shell element and extends within the cavity in the direction of a through-hole of the second shell element. The spacer element has a sleeve-like portion for receiving a screw of the screwed connection of the cross bridge.

  • Patent number: 10081044
    Abstract: A method for producing a chassis link includes shaping a single-shell main body from a sheet metal blank and deforming the sheet metal blank by deep drawing, which includes pre-drawing during which an indentation is produced on the main body and in which the indentation is trimmed and a bush is attached to a projection on the main body once the indentation has been trimmed. The sheet metal blank is pre-drawn such that the indentation is given a radius that matches the bush to be attached such that there is no further need for a further forming operation on the indentation once the indentation has been trimmed.

  • Publication number: 20170153635
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the remote control of a function of a motor vehicle by means of a vehicle-external electronic unit, in which the vehicle-external electronic unit (7) is checked during the driving event of the motor vehicle (1) in that the vehicle-external electronic unit (7) triggers an operation, the result of which is checked for correctness by a control device (3) of the motor vehicle (1).

  • Patent number: 9561699
    Abstract: The invention relates to a chassis link including a single-shell sheet metal main body, on which a plurality of bearing regions are formed for attaching bearing elements by which the main body can be connected to the bodywork and to a movable part of a wheel suspension of a motor vehicle. The main body includes two arms which merge into one another and define a main-body plane and a concave edge region of the main body. The concave edge region extends from a wheel-side bearing region towards a bodywork-side bearing region and is at an angle relative to the main-body plane. For such a chassis link having a high inherent stiffness and a low weight the invention proposes that the angled, concave edge region includes, along at least one curve length portion, at least one oblique surface which, when viewed in cross section, encloses an angle in the range of from 25° to 75° with a surface, adjacent thereto, of the angled, concave edge region.

  • Patent number: 9469344
    Abstract: The invention relates to a subframe for a motor vehicle, in particular a front axle subframe, including a first shell element and a second shell element which is rigidly connected to the first shell element and defines a cavity therewith, and at least one bodywork connection sleeve for inserting a screw therethrough. The bodywork connection sleeve is attached at one of its ends to a through-hole in the first shell element and extends within the cavity towards a through-hole in the second shell element.

  • Patent number: 5657090
    Abstract: A circuit arrangement for the digital identification of television transmission standards, particularly PAL, SECAM and NTSC. Provision is made for transmission standard demodulation stages connected in parallel to which a signal composed of a chromaticity signal and a synchronizing character is directed and which are each cyclically activated by control signals for a certain period of time. A trigger is also provided, together with an up-down counter, a circuit arrangement for the evaluation of the value delivered by the up-down counter, and a control logic.
