Patent ID: 8084978

Claim:
An adjustment device in a motor vehicle, the adjustment device comprising a first drive for adjusting an adjustment part, in a first adjustment direction, a second drive for adjusting this adjustment part in a second adjustment direction, an open-loop control apparatus for performing open-loop control of the first drive and of the second drive and for detecting trapping of a body part or of an object as a result of an adjustment movement of the adjustment part which can be adjusted by the first drive and by the second drive, a first sensor means which is operatively connected to the first drive, and a second sensor means which is operatively connected to the second drive, wherein the open-loop control apparatus is connected to the first sensor means and to the second sensor means and is configured and designed to determine, as a function of a first sensor signal of the first sensor means and a second sensor signal of the second sensor means, a first force variable, which is dependent on the adjustment movement, and a second force variable, which is dependent on the adjustment movement, and to detect the trapping by means of a combined evaluation of at least the first force variable and the second force variable.
