  • Publication number: 20240036082
    Abstract: A current sensor, fora vehicle battery in a vehicle, with an electrical conductor which has a first connection and a second connection for contacting a power circuit of a vehicle. The current sensor includes a first current measurement device and a second current measurement device for measuring the current flowing over the electrical conductor. An evaluation circuit receives measurement values of the first current measurement device and/or the second current measurement device to output a current measurement signal proportional to the current. The first current measurement device utilizes a Hall effect sensor disposed within a constriction with a reduced cross section of the electrical conductor.

  • Publication number: 20020170371
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a gutter selection actuator as well as a method for gutter selection in a transmission. The gutter selection actuator has precisely one double-action gutter piston (2) and one valve device (20) and can be controlled by a common control pressure. A selector finger (4) of a selector shaft (3) can be engaged and disengaged with the gutter piston (2). The position and the movement of the gutter piston (2) is determined in this connection exclusively by the valve device (20).
