  • Publication number: 20250110005
    Abstract: A method for monitoring the balancing of the wheels of a motor vehicle, comprising at least a phase of modeling a first sinusoidal theoretical acceleration signal of a first wheel and a second sinusoidal theoretical acceleration signal of a second wheel, a noise-measuring phase including, for the first wheel, calculating the difference between the value of each sample of the first raw acceleration signal and a corresponding theoretical value of the first theoretical acceleration signal, then measuring a first standard deviation for the calculated differences, and, for the second wheel, calculating the difference between the value of each sample of the second raw acceleration signal and a corresponding theoretical value of the second theoretical acceleration signal, then measuring a second standard deviation for the calculated differences, a first step of calculating reference averages including calculating a first reference average of the first standard deviations and a second reference average of the second

  • Patent number: 12014582
    Abstract: A method for preventing the unintentional resetting of a wheel unit suitable for being mounted on a wheel of a motor vehicle, which wheel unit operates according to a plurality of distinct operating modes and includes a non-volatile memory, at least one update step that aims to update and store in the memory at least one variable for identifying the operating mode to be applied in the event of a reset, and a restoration step that is performed in the event of a reset of the wheel unit and forces the wheel unit to transition to the operating mode associated with the at least one identification variable stored during the preceding update step.

  • Publication number: 20160206401
    Abstract: An endodontic instrument includes a handle to be secured to an instrument holder and an active part to be introduced into a root canal. The active part includes a plurality of faces and at least one edge formed by the intersection of two adjacent faces. At least two of the adjacent faces have a surface with a roughness characterized by an arithmetic mean deviation with respect to the mean line Ra, chosen so that 0.5 ?m<Ra<4.5 ?m, so that the edge formed by the intersection of said two faces has the profile of an irregular jagged line in the space having at least one deviation greater than 0.5 ?m with respect to the mean line.
