A volume-filling mechanical structure (100) for modifying a crash or impact comprising a honeycomb celled material (104) expandable from a compact state to a expanded state and methods for operating the same.

Force and deceleration delimiting devices (100) and methods for operating the same in a vehicle. The devices generally include an open celled material (104) expandable from a non-expanded state to an expanded state, wherein the open celled material (104) i...

The air conditioning unit operates on the carbon dioxide cold vapor process, in which carbon dioxide is circulated in closed circuit by a compressor (3) to a heat exchanger (2) and back. The heat exchanger is fixed to the powertrain unit. The heat exchange...

The safety device (1) for the heating system (3) is automatically switched off if the ignition (4) is switched off, and/or at least one door (5) of the vehicle is opened. The safety device controls the operating state of the heating system, dependent on th...

The method involves detecting the current position parameters of at least one driver using an internal spatial sensor arrangement (1) and automatically adjusting the rear view mirror (5,6) depending on the detected head and/or eye position of the driver. M...

The front structure (1) has front fenders (6), a body part (7) at a distance underneath the fenders and a deformation device (8) between the body part and the fenders. The deformation device has a flexible filler part made of plastic that closes a gap betw...
