    摘要: A method for monitoring and controlling a vehicle battery pack that includes a plurality of battery cells. The battery cells each include a switching unit which serves to connect and disconnect the respective battery cells. Pack information of the battery pack is acquired, a pack voltage of the battery pack is calculated on the basis of the cell voltages and a current activation pattern for actuating the switching units. An electrical power requirement of the vehicle is predicted based on GPS information. A state of the battery pack is estimated based on the pack information and the current activation pattern and an optimized activation pattern for actuating the switching units on the basis of the predicted electrical power requirement and the estimated state of the battery pack is calculated. The switching units of the respective battery cells are actuated according to the optimized activation pattern.

    摘要: The seat for a vehicle includes a side airbag having a head chamber. The head chamber is housed along the upper frame of the seat back. The head chamber is inflated and deployed between the shoulder belt and the head upon side impact, receiving a delivery of gases from the inflator. Here, the head chamber is configured to be housed in an inner roll folded state in which the front end of the roll folding from the front end portion in the sheet longitudinal direction is wound in a roll shape so as to be wound around the sheet outside, and the front end of the roll folding from the intermediate portion is wound in a roll shape so as to be wound around the sheet inside.

    摘要: There is provided a switch installed in a vehicle. The switch includes a cover made of a transparent material, a plate disposed below the cover in an inner side of the cover, and a film combined to the plate, the film having a printed pattern printed thereon. The pattern printed on the film is enlarged by refraction of a light from the pattern while the light passing through the cover, and then is visible enlarged to eyes of a user.

    摘要: A heating apparatus, in particular for recreational vehicles like campers or caravans, comprises a heating unit and two separate heat exchanging units, which are coupled to the heating unit in parallel with each other. The heating unit comprises one burner for each heat exchanging unit, and at least one combustion air fan unit configured to supply the burners with combustion air. The burners are configured to burn fuel gas or liquid further supplied to each of the burners together with the combustion air received from the combustion air fan unit to get hot exhaust gasses. The heat exchanging units and are configured to receive the exhaust gasses from the burners, and to transfer heat from the exhaust gasses to fluids to be heated, provided within the heat exchanging units. The heat exchanging units are positioned in parallel with each other side by side on one side of the heating unit. Furthermore, the present invention refers to a recreational vehicle with such a heating apparatus.

    摘要: A tire position determination system includes a first tire detector, a revolving body detector, and a monitoring unit. The first tire detector is attached to a first tire and detects an acceleration. The revolving body detector is attached to a first revolving body and detects an acceleration. The monitoring unit obtains first correspondence representing relation between a first value and a second value during a first period, obtains second correspondence representing relation between a third value and a fourth value during a second period, compares the first correspondence and the second correspondence with each other, and determines whether or not the first tire revolves in synchronization with the first revolving body.

    摘要: In the case of a method for operating a brake system of an at least double-tracked motor vehicle (10) which comprises 2 breakable wheels (12L, 12R), which are arranged at opposite ends of an axle (14V), and a rollover protection system, which can cause braking of the wheels (12L, 12R) in order to prevent a rollover situation, automatic braking of that wheel of the axle (14V), which is loaded more greatly when cornering is brought about by way of the rollover protection system. Subsequently, a counter-steering movement is detected by way of a predefined steering angle change being exceeded in a predefined time period in the direction counter to the cornering direction, and, thereupon, a brake force is caused to be built up at the opposite wheel, which is loaded less greatly by way of the rollover protection system.

    摘要: A method for automatically controlling an in-cabin environment for a passenger in an autonomous vehicle includes monitoring a state of the passenger via a video sensor; determining whether the state of the passenger corresponds to one of preset states of a predetermined number; and adjusting, when the state corresponds to the one of the preset states, any one or any combination of any two or more of a seat, an air conditioning system, a lighting system, a sound system, a variable window tinting, and a variable sunroof of the autonomous vehicle based on the state. The determining of the state of the passenger includes detecting a plurality of determination target objects from a video of the video sensor, cropping an image of each of the plurality of determination target objects, and determining whether the state of the passenger corresponds to the one of the preset states.
