摘要:
In a method for the automatic control of lighting devices, particularly of a motor vehicle, and a device for implementing the method, the brightness in a specific direction being detected by at least one directional sensor which emits direction signals to a control device, the control device switching on the lighting devices after a minimum time has elapsed. The minimum time begins when the direction signals exceed or drop below a switch-on threshold. The lighting devices are only switched on when the direction signals lie above or below the switch-on threshold during the entire minimum time. To that end, the control device is connected to a timer.

A method and an apparatus for automatic control of illumination devices, in particular of a motor vehicle, include a brightness sensor which delivers first signals, the illumination devices are switched off after a time interval that begins at the point in time at which the first signals exceed or fall below a first threshold. The length of the time interval is modifiable, and in particular, is capable of being extended.

A sensor arrangement for detecting a wetting, in particular a precipitation and dirt accumulation, on a window (13) is proposed, with at least one transmitter (14) and at least one receiver (15) for the transmitter light (17) emitted by the transmitters (14), where the transmitters (14) and receivers (15) are disposed on the vertex points of an imaginary trapezoid. As a result, the external dimensions of the sensor are reduced, the ratio of sensitive area (19) and base area (18) of the sensor is improved, and a coherent sensitive area is produced, where there is also space available for a receiving element of an automatic light control.

A device (10) for operating a windshield wiper (12) is proposed, with a moisture sensor (22) for detecting the wetness of a window that in addition to detecting rain and droplets also detects fog and drizzle. The measured values (Us) of the moisture sensor (22) are allocated incremental values (Ink) by the control unit (16). The difference between two successive incremental values (Ink) is to be added, with a sign (+ or −), in the memory (28) to a sum (&Sgr;) of differences formed previously in the same way, and when a threshold (S) is reached by the sum (&Sgr;) stored in the memory (28), the control unit (16) trips a wiper operating mode.

A power circuit (10) for activating a drive unit for a wiper system of a motor vehicle has a circuit breaker (14) for activating the drive unit. According to the invention a heat accumulator (16) for absorbing heat accumulating in the circuit breaker (14) when the drive unit is in the blocked state is thermally connected to the circuit breaker (14). In the event of sudden heat generation in the circuit breaker (14) a majority of the resulting heat can be discharged quickly to the heat accumulator (16) such that the circuit breaker (14) can be smaller in size and the power circuit (10) enables use of a higher-ohm circuit breaker (14).
