  • Patent number: 12550244
    Abstract: The present invention provides a system comprising a luminaire and a camera module. The luminaire and the camera module each comprise an interface for mechanically and electrically connecting the camera module and the luminaire with each other. The luminaire is configured to electrically supply the camera module with electrical energy via the interface of the luminaire and the interface of the camera module, when the interface of the camera module is electrically and mechanically connected to the interface of the luminaire. The camera module comprises a control circuit and at least one image sensor. The image sensor is configured to detect an image of an area within the detection field of the camera module and provide the image in the form of image data to the control circuit. The control circuit is configured to determine information on the area by extracting the information from the image data.

  • Patent number: 11750062
    Abstract: A drive device includes an electric motor and a gear unit that is driven by the electric motor. The electric motor has a laminated stator core which includes stator windings and is accommodated in a stator housing. The stator housing has recesses that are axially uninterrupted, i.e. in particular in the direction of the rotor shaft axis, and the stator housing is surrounded, especially radially surrounded, by a housing of the drive device, in particular a tubular housing and/or a cup-shaped housing, and the housing is set apart from the stator housing, in particular such that an especially circulating airflow is able to be provided within the housing, the recesses in particular guiding the airflow through in the axial direction, and the airflow being returned in the opposite direction in the set-apart region between the stator housing part and the housing.

  • Patent number: 4359991
    Abstract: A fuel control system for an internal combustion engine with correction for optimum values based on a variety of factors. Characteristic engine data is stored in preferably digital memories with capabilities for interpolation. Upon addressing the engine data fields with input signals related to current operational variables, for example the accelerator pedal position, the control system derives therefrom a nominal air flow rate which is used as the reference value in a control loop that sets the amount of recycled exhaust gas and the fresh air flow. As the actual air flow rate approaches the reference value, the fuel flow is adjusted to insure correct mixtures at all times. In another embodiment, the fuel is supplied on demand but cannot exceed a maximum value except under special override conditions. Several other embodiments and variants are presented.
