VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM
The vehicle includes an operation switch for manually operating the operation state of the accessories. The vehicle control system includes a first controller that performs an evacuation traveling in response to a decrease in the driver's consciousness level, and a second controller that controls an operation state of the accessories based on a request from the first controller or operation information of the operation switch. The first controller is configured to transmit, to the second controller, a specific operation rejection request for performing a specific operation rejection process of rejecting the control of the accessories based on the specific operation of the operation switch in response to a decrease in the driver's consciousness level. The second controller is configured to perform the specific operation rejection process when the specific operation rejection request is received from the first controller.
Synchronization method for reading a status of an electrical contact of a motor vehicle
A method for synchronizing acquisition of an analog signal value with a read signal for a state of an electrical contact of a motor vehicle. The method includes: controlling, at each start time of the first task, the power supply module so that the power supply module generates a read signal voltage pulse at the interface module input; at the same start time, triggering a counter for a predetermined duration shorter than the duration of the read signal voltage pulse; on the expiration of the counter duration, measuring the value of an analog signal generated by the interface module based on the state signal and of the read signal; and controlling, at the next start time of the second task, the power supply module so that the power supply module generates a zero voltage signal at the interface module input until the next start time of the first task.
Windscreen wiper and a motor vehicle comprising such windscreen wiper
The present invention relates to a motor vehicle's windscreen wiper, that includes a wiper blade and driving system; where the driving system includes a wiper motor, a wheel plate that pivots about a central rotational axis; where the wheel plate's angular position is associated with the wiper blade's angular position; where a parking cam on the wheel is associated with two parking contact springs with parking electrodes that press against the wheel plate surface under a resilient bias of the parking contact spring; where a parking trace is defined by a track slid by the parking electrode on the wheel plate during the wheel plate's rotation such that distances between the contact spring parking electrodes and the wheel plate's central rotation axis is substantially equal to each other such that traces of the parking electrodes generally coincide with each other; where the invention further includes a single-trace parking cam consisting of only one arc-segment such that the parking trace substantially follows a center arc by; where application of the single-trace cam is able to achieve the wiper parking function of the windscreen wiper in a compact and cost-effective manner.
Motor and brushless wiper motor
The motor is provided with: a rotor core; permanent magnets disposed on the outer circumferential surface of the rotor core and magnetized in parallel orientation; and a salient pole saliently formed between the permanent magnets. The ratio of the number of magnetic poles of the permanent magnets to the number of teeth is 2:3. Sloped surfaces are formed on the side surfaces of the permanent magnets in the circumferential direction. The angle θ2 between lines L3 and lines L2 is an electrical angle of 13° or more, said lines L3 connecting outer circumferential corner portions where the sloped surfaces and the outer circumferential surface are connected to each other and the shaft center, said lines L2 connecting the radial direction outermost side of the circumferential side surface of the salient pole and the shaft center.

Windshield wiper system with an internal trigger
An aircraft windshield wiper system includes a wiper arm, a wiper blade coupled to a first end of the wiper arm, and an output shaft coupled to a second end of the wiper arm. The wiper blade is configured to clean water, dirt, and other debris from the windshield of the aircraft. The output shaft is configured to rotate and cause the wiper arm with the coupled wiper blade to sweep across and clean the windshield. A sensor and a trigger are coupled to an actuator to ensure accurate sweep angle and parking position of the wiper arm and wiper blade.

System and method of automatically activating windshield wiper of a vehicle
A system and method of automatically activating a windshield wiper system of a vehicle having a front windshield with a front wiper and a rear windshield with a rear wiper are provided. The method comprises assessing at least one windshield classification of road conditions based on original information and capturing a front image of the front windshield, a rear image of the rear windshield, and an environment image of the environment. The method further comprises classifying the images to define a first windshield class. The method further comprises determining a front windshield perception, a rear windshield perception, and an environment perception of the first windshield class to define a first combination of detection sources. The method further comprises fusing the front windshield perception, the rear windshield perception and the environment perception, defining a first front probability of the first windshield class. The method further comprises activating the front wiper when the first front probability is greater than a front threshold.
BRUSHLESS DIRECT-CURRENT ELECTRIC MOTOR FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE WIPER SYSTEM
The invention relates to a geared motor comprising a first brushless electric motor part having a stator, a rotor and a drive shaft, a second part having an output shaft and a reduction gear mechanism and an electronic part.
