    摘要: This relates to an electric system for a motor vehicle, the vehicle including at least one power supply battery, the electric system including an electric charger intended to be connected, on the one hand, to the battery and, on the other hand, to an electric network outside the vehicle supplying an AC voltage or to electric equipment, and a microcontroller, the charger being able to charge the battery from an external electric network or to allow the battery to power the equipment, the microcontroller being configured to: a) command the opening and closing of each switch of the first bridge and of the second bridge of the converter; b) activate the second operating mode of the first bridge or of the second bridge; and c) activate the second operating mode of the first bridge or of the second bridge.

    摘要: A seal for use in a fluid valve, or multi-path fluid valve, has a cylindrical, resilient base member, a plurality of first sealing portions arranged at an outer side of the base member for sealing abutment against a valve housing of the fluid valve, and a plurality of second sealing portions, arranged at an inner side of the base member, for sealing abutment against an adjustable valve body of the fluid valve. A respective first sealing portion and respective second sealing portion are arranged circumferentially around a respective sealing opening of the base member. There is arranged at the inner side of the base member a first layer having a sliding friction coefficient which is less with respect to the valve body and/or static friction coefficient which is less than the base member, and which is at least partially in contact with the valve body during use of the seal.

    摘要: The disclosure relates to a method and a device for checking the functionality of a crankcase ventilation system of an internal combustion engine. The crankcase ventilation system includes two crankcase ventilation lines arranged between a crankcase outlet of a crankcase and an associated introduction point into an air path of the internal combustion engine, via which crankcase ventilation lines gas can be introduced from the crankcase into the air path. The method includes measuring a pressure in the crankcase, supplying the measured pressure values to a control unit, and calculating the gradient of the measured pressure. The method also includes performing a gradient check, checking whether the gradient satisfies a specified criterion, and returning to the measurement of the pressure if the gradient satisfies the specified criterion. The method also includes recording an entry in a fault memory if the gradient does not satisfy the specified criterion.

    摘要: Disclosed is an inductive position sensor including, on the one hand, a primary winding and, on the other hand, at least two secondary windings each having a plurality of turns formed of a succession of sides and produced on two opposite faces of a printed circuit board. Two pairs of two adjacent sides of each turn of at least one secondary winding form a first point directed toward a first longitudinal end and a second point directed toward a second longitudinal end of the printed circuit board, a projection on a plane of the printed circuit board of the two adjacent sides of each pair defining between them an acute projected angle.
