20140151973 | TWIST BEAM AXLE - A twist beam axle for a wheel suspension of a motor vehicle. The twist beam axle has two trailing arms and a torsional profile having prismatic-shaped end sections with a noncircular cross-section. One trailing arm is connected to one torsional profile end section in each case. The trailing arms have a receiving recess having a shape corresponding to that of the outer surface of the torsional profile end section.

The twist beam axle ensures permanent transfers high bending moments and torques between the trailing arms and the torsional profile without a welded joint. Different classes of materials can be used for the torsional profile and trailing arms, or can be connected to one another. The twist beam axle generally makes it possible to use large-volume, thin-walled and, therefore, weight-saving torsional profiles. | 06-05-2014 |

20080265540 | Guiding Element for a Track Element in a Wheel Suspension of a Vehicle - A guide element for a guideway element in a wheel suspension of a vehicle has one of the elements arranged such that it is connected essentially rigidly to the body and the other element arranged such that it is connected essentially rigidly to the wheel and a plain bearing, which makes possible a displacing motion of the guide element on the guideway element, is formed between these elements. The guide element is guided in a rotatingly movable and/or pivotingly movable manner on the guideway element via a joint arrangement, within which the plain bearing ring is arranged, which is guided with its circular passage opening, adapted to the cross section of the guideway element, on the guideway element. This joint arrangement may be designed as a rubber bushing or as a ball and socket joint. A plurality of sliding rings may be arranged in a so-called ball layer hollow body one on top of another and at least with a section facing the guideway element essentially at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the guideway element in a slightly displaceable manner. A guideway extending in a curved shape can thus be embodied. The sliding ring may have an elastomer ring, to which a metal bushing is vulcanized on the outside and to which a plastic sliding ring, which is in contact by its inside with the guideway element, is vulcanized on the inside. | 10-30-2008 |

20110280575 | METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING A DIGITAL SIGNAL IN INVERSE MULTIPLEXING, PARTICULARLY VIA AN OPTICAL TRANSPORT NETWORK, AND RECEPTION DEVICE FOR A SYSTEM TO CARRY OUT THE METHOD - The invention relates to a method for the transmission of a digital signal in inverse multiplexing, particularly via an Optical Transport Network (OTN), in which a digital signal to be transmitted, which is split into a certain number M of several sub-signals, where each sub-signal of a transmit side of a transmission line assigned exclusively to this sub-signal is transmitted to a reception side of the assigned transmission line, and in which, on the reception side of the transmission lines, the sub-signals are reassembled to a digital reception signal. According to the invention, on the reception side, bit errors in the digital reception signal including their position in the digital reception signal are detected, and from the detected position of the bit errors and from the assignment of the individual bytes of the digital reception signal to the respective sub-signals and transmission lines, which assignment is also known on the reception side, it is determined to which sub-signal the detected bit errors were assigned. From this one or more parameters are determined, which characterize the transmission quality of the transmission lines assigned to each sub-signal and/or allow inferences to be drawn regarding which error mechanisms of the transmission line in question impact its transmission quality. In addition, the invention relates to a reception device for a system for the transmission of a digital signal in inverse multiplexing, which carries out this method. | 11-17-2011 |
