Patent DE-19630216-A1 (DE)
Title: Vehicle with travel-situation-dependent headlamp control
Inventor: HESS RALF DIPL ING
IPC: H05B37/02
Filed: 1996-07-26
Abstract: A car has headlamp control depending on the travel situation. There is an ambient light sensor (6) with a wide conical evaluation range (2) and a light sensor (7) specifically aimed in the travel direction with a smaller conical range(3). A control unit (5) uses the sensor signals to discriminate between short and long travel sections of less light and generates a corresponding signal. The second light sensor is positioned so that its conical evaluation range meets the road surface about 66 feet ahead of the car. The control unit determines the length of the sections with less light using a car speed signal. The sensitivity of the second sensor is determined by the light falling upon the first sensor.

Patent DE-19633634-A1 (DE)
Title: Load bearing structural element for loadable substructures
Inventor: GROHS GERWALD
IPC: E04C3/04
Filed: 1996-08-21
Abstract: The beam presents a self-contained three-dimensional cell (A,B) with honeycombed internal structure for heavy loading. In detail, the cell sides (A) are convexly curved and with radiused edges (B). Thus two convex sheets when joined back to back give a load bearing structure, reinforced from within by its honeycomb, and the beam as such serves as substructural support for convexed sheets or for directly applied load. The cells typically form a shape-retaining design in sheet metal, Al, plastics, plywood and can be spot welded up into a frame structure, using convex sheet as honeycomb. Doubled sheeting can also be used depending on expected loading.

Patent DE-19741085-A1 (DE)
Inventor: PFEIFFER ULRICH DIPL ING
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1997-09-18
Abstract: The method is performed by relaying data to a central site from locality-distributed data-recording sites (D1-D5) via a relay or bridging station when direct reception fails or is unreliable. The central station retrieves by radio, and stores, data from the data site. If entire data sites are not reached by the central site, the central site transmits to the achievable data sites or makes further attempts by those relay or bridging places which can be reached. The reached data places, or relay or bridge sites, thereupon try to relay the data from the initially unreached data site, either directly or indirectly by radio and retransmit to the central station. An Independent claim is included for a central recording system.
