20100257842 | METHOD FOR DETECTING THE MINIMUM OPENING TIME OF A REDUCING AGENT FEED DEVICE IN AN EXHAUST GAS AFTERTREATMENT SYSTEM COMPRISING AN SCR CATALYST - In a method for adapting the reducing agent feed in an exhaust gas aftertreatment system having an SCR catalyst for removing nitrogen oxides from the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine and at least one reducing agent feed device, the minimum opening time of the reducing agent feed device is determined during operation and while suspending nitrogen emission, carrying out the following steps: a) the opening time of the reducing agent feed device is gradually prolonged until b) a reducing agent-sensitive sensor in the exhaust gas aftertreatment system detects a reducing agent signal. An exhaust gas aftertreatment system is designed accordingly for carrying out the method and a device is designed for controlling an exhaust gas aftertreatment system. | 10-14-2010 |
20110047972 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR METERING A REDUCING AGENT INTO AN EXHAUST GAS SYSTEM OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - In an internal-combustion engine exhaust gas system, a storage tank stores the reducing agent, a supply pipe connects the storage tank to a metering unit which introduces the reducing agent into the exhaust gas system. A pump mechanism within the supply pipe conveys the reducing agent. A pressure sensor detects the pressure in the supply pipe downstream of the pump, and a pressure-releasing device has a return pipe connected to the storage tank and comes off the supply pipe. A first valve system is arranged in the supply pipe. A section of the return pipe is located at a higher level than the return pipe to form a storage volume for air present in the supply pipe. A second valve system is arranged in the supply pipe to create, when the second valve system is closed, a storage volume for pressurized reducing agent by way of this pipe branch. | 03-03-2011 |
20110146241 | METHOD FOR OPERATING A UREA-WATER SOLUTION METERING SYSTEM AND MOTOR VEHICLE USING THE SYSTEM - A method for operating a device for providing a liquid reactant to an exhaust gas system. The device includes at least one tank and an injection nozzle connected to one another by a line. The line has a pump for feeding the reactant. A controllable return line connected between the pump and the injection nozzle leads from the line to the tank. A controller controls operation of the injection nozzle, the pump and the return line, so that the reactant is only circulated intermittently through the controllable return line. A motor vehicle using the method is also provided. | 06-23-2011 |
20110309087 | APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING A TANK FILL LEVEL, TANK FOR UREA/WATER SOLUTION AND MOTOR VEHICLE HAVING A TANK - An apparatus for determining a tank fill level includes at least one cap, an extraction pipe which extends through the cap and at least partially has an electrically conductive material, a jacket pipe disposed around the extraction pipe and at least partially has an electrically conductive material, and a measuring unit forming a first electrode with the extraction pipe and a second electrode with the jacket pipe. A tank for a urea/water solution is also provided, in which the apparatus is used as a quality sensor and/or a fill level sensor. A motor vehicle having a tank is also provided. | 12-22-2011 |
20130074590 | Method For Determining The State Of A Reducing Agent In A Reducing Agent Tank - A method for determining the state of a reducing agent in a reducing agent tank. The reducing agent is used for exhaust gas after-treatment of exhaust gas generated by an internal combustion engine. To inform the control unit of an internal combustion engine regarding the quality of the reducing agent in the reducing agent tank the method includes determining and recording the filling and extracting volumes of the reducing agent from the reducing agent tank by a fill level sensor, determining and recording the temperature of the reducing agent in the reducing agent tank by at least one temperature sensor over the entire service life of the exhaust gas after-treatment unit, determining and recording the distribution velocity of ultrasonic waves in the reducing agent by an ultrasonic transmitter and ultrasonic receiver, determining the state of a reducing agent from the parameters. | 03-28-2013 |

20090111627 | TENSIONER WITH AN ADJUSTER - The present invention relates to a tensioner, in particular a tensioner for a driving chain of an internal combustion engine, comprising a tensioning plunger which is axially movably guided in a plunger bore of a plunger reception means and an adjuster for readjusting the shift of the operating range of the tensioning plunger caused by wear. The adjuster comprises a hydraulic adjusting element and a closable pressure chamber provided on the bottom of the plunger bore. The adjusting element delimits the pressure chamber against the plunger bore and is axially movably guided in said plunger bore. | 04-30-2009 |
20090197723 | TENSIONING RAIL FOR A CHAIN DRIVE WITH A BRIDGING GUIDE CHANNEL SECTION AS A PRESSING REGION - The invention relates to a tensioning rail for a chain drive with a support body which is pivotable about a centre of rotation and which has a guide channel, which can be placed in contact with a chain, and a pressing region which can be acted on with pressure by a tensioning piston, wherein the pressing region bridges the guide channel at least in regions by forming a peripherally closed guide channel section, wherein the pressing region is formed in one piece with the support body. | 08-06-2009 |

20140256487 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A TENSIONING OR GUIDE RAIL WITH A VIBRATION ABSORBER - A method for producing a tensioning or guide rail with a base body, and a vibration absorber arranged on the base body is provided, comprising the steps of: providing a base body, at least partially embedding the base body into plastic material that is in a flowable state, and hardening the plastic material to obtain a vibration absorber that is captively arranged on the base body. The method also relates to a respective rail and to a continuous drive for a combustion engine. | 09-11-2014 |
20140302955 | SLIDE RAIL FOR TENSIONING AND GUIDING AN ENDLESS DRIVE MEMBER AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAID SLIDE RAIL - In the field of a slide rail for tensioning and guiding an endless drive member, comprising at least one bore and a screw captively held in the bore, permitting the captive mounting of screws even in thin-walled slide rails is provided. A sleeve is mounted in the bore and the sleeve comprises engagement elements at its end facing the rail, said engagement elements being engaged with the wall of the bore, and a stop collar lying against a stop surface formed at the slide rail, and lock elements are embodied in the sleeve which engage the thread of the screw and lock the screw at least in an assembly position, wherein said slide rail is thin-walled. Furthermore, an assembly method is provided for manufacturing the slide rail with a captively held screw and to the loss prevention device per se. | 10-09-2014 |

20160015286 | INTEGRATED VECTORCARDIOGRAM SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE - An integrated vectorcardiogram (VCG) device having 3 pairs of electrodes placed in three orthogonal directions with the capability to continuously measure the electrical activity of the heart. All of the electrode pairs may be contained within a single miniaturized housing thereby eliminating the need for cumbersome wires required with current 12-lead ECG systems, while providing the same amount and quality of information as the 12-lead ECG system. The integrated VCG device also includes a communications function to allow the data collected by the electrodes to be transmitted wirelessly to a remote device, such as a pacemaker, to control its function or to a remote monitoring station for continuous real-time patient monitoring. | 01-21-2016 |
