A wiper arm arrangement with a wiper arm of a windscreen wiper system of a vehicle and an attachment element having at least one line. The attachment element can be coupled to a connecting element designed for holding a wiper blade and for connecting the wiper blade to the wiper arm. Due to the coupling, at least one corresponding line of the connecting element can be joined onto the at least one line of the attachment element. The connecting element can be fitted onto the attachment element in an installation direction which coincides at least substantially with a direction of longitudinal extent of the wiper arm. The attachment element is arranged on the wiper arm so as to be movable in the direction of longitudinal extent of the wiper arm.

Assembly for the production of a wiping system, comprising a terminal part () of a wiper arm designed to move a wiper blade () over the surface to be wiped and a hydraulic connector () comprising at least one piping element () for conveying a liquid to the wiper blade (), the said terminal part comprising at least one means () for supporting the said hydraulic connector ensuring that it is held longitudinally with reference to the wiper arm. It is characterized in that the said supporting means allows a movement of the said hydraulic connector () in a direction convergent with the longitudinal direction.

A modular construction system for producing a plurality of design variants of a roof module for a motor car includes a plurality of design-variant-specific adapter elements and a plurality of design-variant-specific planar elements. Using at least one adapter element, at least one respective planar element can be connected to a frame, forming a roof opening, in particular of a motor car shell.

In a method for recovering energy from the heat dissipated by an internal combustion engine and to an internal combustion engine wherein the pressure and temperature of a liquid working medium are increased from a lower process pressure and a first temperature to an upper process pressure at which the working fluid is heated to a second temperature whereby it is converted to a gaseous phase; the working medium is then expanded back to the lower process pressure whereby mechanical power is generated and the working medium is converted back to a liquid phase, the upper process pressure being adjusted in such a way that the working medium is expanded into the wet steam area close to the saturated steam limit.

A convertible motor vehicle with at least two vehicle seating rows and with at least two side doors is provided. A respectively associated door column is arranged in between the doors, and an active rollover protection system is provided in the region thereof. The door columns end upwards in the region of an associated waistline of the motor vehicle, and the rollover protection system is at least substantially arranged below the waistline of the motor vehicle in a retracted position.

In order to provide a comfortable rest zone with an easy chair and reclining surface for a driver, even in a confined space, provision is made for a driver's cab for an individual driver to have an easy chair which can be converted into a bed. In this arrangement, a mattress runs over the armrest having an armrest cushion of the easy chair. The armrest cushion cushions the reclining surface, so that the mattress is of as space-saving a design as possible.
