Title: Ludwig Fein: Vehicle Brake-System Inventor
Introduction
Ludwig Fein is an inventor associated with Wermelskirchen, Germany, whose patent work focuses on vehicle braking systems. His inventions address brake-system bleeding and the operation of a vehicle’s service brakes while stationary. Fein is associated with Ford Global Technologies, LLC, and holds 2 patents.
Latest Patents
Fein’s listed patents concern methods for improving brake-system operation and maintenance.
“Method for bleeding a vehicle brake system” describes a way to bleed at least part of a vehicle’s hydraulic brake system without opening bleed valves. A pump selectively increases pressure in a brake circuit and applies that pressure to the section being bled for a specified period.
“Method for operating a brake system in a stationary vehicle” concerns controlling a vehicle’s service brake system when the vehicle is stationary. The method detects whether the vehicle is stopped and whether the driver actuates the operating member to leave it in that condition. When those circumstances are detected, the system generates a signal to initiate a temporary reduction in the supply of brake medium to the operating members.
Career Highlights
Fein’s patent portfolio reflects an emphasis on practical vehicle-braking technologies. His work includes both a maintenance procedure designed to simplify brake bleeding and a control method for managing brake operation in a stationary vehicle. He is associated with Ford Global Technologies, LLC, which supports the development and management of automotive technologies.
Collaborations
Fein’s listed coworkers include Clive John Barton and Peter Tomczak. Their names provide context for the professional network associated with his automotive patent work.
Conclusion
Ludwig Fein’s inventions address two distinct aspects of vehicle braking: hydraulic-system bleeding and service-brake operation while a vehicle is stationary. Together, his patents highlight his contribution to automotive brake-system technology.
