Patent DE-4128717-A1 (DE)
Inventor: HEIZMANN FRIEDER
IPC: B60J3/04
Filed: 1991-08-29
Abstract: Proposed is an anti-glare device for vehicle windscreens, the device darkening the windscreen in dependence on the angle of incidence (W) of the sunlight falling on the windscreen, thus protecting the driver from being dazzled. The intensity of the sunlight falling directly on the windscreen is determined by a sensor (7). The windscreen is darkened in strips, until the incident sunlight no longer dazzles the driver. Prior art electrochromic glass or liquid-crystal films can be used to modify the transparency. The anti-glare device is also suitable for use in reducing the heating-up of the vehicle when it is parked in direct sunlight. Designing the anti-glare device with a matrix-type layout can be used to give partial transparency.

Title: Procedure for minimum stress waking of sleeping person - establishes sleep pattern for individual using suitable sensors and records data in pulse sensor for rousing during light sleep phase
Inventor: KNUTZEN SOENKE
IPC: A61B5/374
Filed: 1992-03-23
Abstract: The procedure for enabling a sleeping person to wake within a predetermined time (tz) when roused by a suitable signal is designed to minimise attendant stress by arranging the preset time (tz) to coincide with the naturally occurring repetitive phases of light sleep i.e. REM sleep-phasers (tREM). The individual's cyclic pattern of REM and non-REM sleep is established over a reference period using suitably recorded indicators e.g. eye movement, pulse, breathing etc. and the data is programmed into an armband or ear-clip pulse rate monitor. The preset waking time (tz) is always chosen to suit the pattern with any temporary alteration of the natural cycle effected by a brief interruption of sleep by signal during a non-REM phase. USE/ADVANTAGE - Assists waking experience to be as pleasant as possible. Alternation of normal cycle during non-REM i.e. deep-sleep phase is generally not noticed by sleeper.

Title: Mains starting device for internal combustion engines
Inventor: KATZENBERGER ALBERT ING GRAD
IPC: F02N11/14
Filed: 1993-06-25
Abstract: The invention relates to a mains starting device for internal combustion engines, which device has a starter (1) which operates with D.C. current and is constructed as a permanent magnet-excited sliding-gear starting motor and starts an internal combustion engine by coupling an axially displaceable pinion (2), the said pinion (2) being moved, by an engagement magnet (6) via an engagement lever (4), into toothed engagement with a crown gear (10) on the flywheel of the internal combustion engine to be started while the starting energy is drawn from an alternating current mains or rotary current mains with the intermediate connection of a transformer (13) and of a rectifier (14). The electric motor (1a) of this starting device, with permanent magnets (8) as exciter for the armature (9), continues to operate as a generator after the current is switched off, and as a result of the current which continues to flow to the engagement magnet (6) for a short time prevents the said engagement magnet (6) from being effective. It is proposed, by virtue of using an additional decoupling rectifier (15a), to keep the generator current in the electric motor (1a) away from the terminal (50) of the engagement magnet (6) after the mains is switched off in order to terminate the starting process. <IMAGE>
