Filed: 1999-05-07
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for cleaning the surfaces of windows and/or the bodies of motor vehicles, comprising a longitudinal handle section and a broom section provided with at least one row of brushes. The broom section can be rotated into at least two different positions in relation to the handle section. In one position, the row of brushes extend in an almost perpendicular manner with respect to the handle section. In the other position, said row of brushes lies on a plane which basically stretches from the axis of rotation of the broom section to the handle section. Said positions are defined by detents on a hinge joint between the handle section and the broom section. In order to produce a cleaning device of the above-mentioned variety, possessing improved utilization qualities, preferably able to be stowed away more easily and produced in an economical manner, a torque of at least 1 Nm is required if the broom section (3) is to be forcibly twisted in relation to the handle section (1).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring the distance and speed of objects by using electromagnetic waves in a motor vehicle radar system. According to the method, electromagnetic waves are emitted and simultaneously received. The emitted electromagnetic waves are modulated in a ramped manner. At least the signals, which are received during a rise and fall in the frequency of the emitted signal, are mixed with each emitted signal thus resulting in the formation of a number of intermediate frequency signals. The distance and speed of the object are calculated by using the intermediate frequency signals. A meteorological condition in the surrounding area of the vehicle and/or a malfunctioning of the motor vehicle radar system is determined using characteristic intermediate frequency signals.

Abstract: To improve the startability by reducing the
effect of a load upon start-up of an engine. 
     When an Ne sensor (153) detects the
stoppage of the engine, a control unit (1000) turns on a
relay (RyA). When a starter switch is operated, a starter
relay control unit (400) turns on a relay (RyA). The OFF
state of the relay (RyB) is kept for a time set on the
basis of the water temperature of the engine. When the
relay (RyA) is turned on, the starter motor (171) is driven
in such a manner as to be reversely rotated when the
relay (RyB) is turned off and to be normally rotated when
the relay (RyB) is turned on. In this way, the degree of
the warming is decided depending on the water temperature,
and when the degree of warming is large, the reverse-rotation
time of the crank shaft is made short and when
the degree of warming is small, the reverse-rotation time
of the crank shaft is made long. The crank shaft is
reversely rotated for the reverse-rotation time thus set,
to be located at a position in a low load region, and is
then normally rotated.

Inventor: GAEDKE KLAUS
IPC: H04N19/13

Abstract: Proposed systems for encryption and copy protection of digital
video or audio data use known data stream encryption algorithms
and require a significant amount of additional
hardware for the encryption and decryption of the video and
audio data. MPEG-2 video uses VLC code tables to generate
the encoded data. The receiver has to know about the code
tables that have been applied at the encoder in order to be
able to decode the VLC-encoded data stream. As long as the
encoder VLC code tables are not known the transmitted data
cannot be decoded. Therefore the use of any non-standardised
non-public VLC code tables when encoding the VLC words is a
powerful protection for such MPEG-2 video data. According to
the invention several different VLC code tables or several
different sets of VLC code tables are used in the encoder
and decoder. At regular or irregular time instants a different
VLC code table or set of VLC code tables is selected
synchronously in the encoder and decoder. The information
about the selected VLC code table or set of VLC code tables
is transmitted using encryption. A corresponding set of VLC
code tables can be stored in the decoder. As an alternative
or in addition, an updated and possibly encrypted VLC code
table or set of VLC code tables can be transmitted from the
encoder to the decoder, whereby the information about the
selected VLC code table or set of VLC code tables can be
transmitted in a non-encrypted format. No real-time encryption/decryption
processing of the VLC code words and therefore
no high-speed complex hardware is required.
