A device for treating exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine includes: a heating disk arranged in a housing; and a main catalytic converter arranged downstream of the heating disk in the flow direction in the housing. The flow can pass through the heating disk and the main catalytic converter in the flow direction along a plurality of flow channels. The heating disk is formed from a metallic honeycomb body and the main catalytic converter is formed from a ceramic honeycomb body fixed in relation to the housing by a fixing structure. The heating disk is electrically contacted by an electrical feedthrough guided through the housing from the outside to the inside.

A mounting device is provided for oscillatingly mounting a range extender, which consists of an internal combustion engine and a generator, on a body and/or a chassis of a motor vehicle by way of vibration-damping elements. At least two of the vibration-damping elements are integrated in load-carrying bearings and one additional one is integrated in a supporting bearing for supporting moments. The mounting device is characterized in that the vibration-damping elements of the mounting device at least for the load-carrying bearings are secured to the range extender, i.e. a first vibration-damping element is secured to the internal combustion engine and a second vibration-damping element is secured to the generator.

Torque roll axis mounting system for serial range extenders without a through-drive

A method for controlling an air conditioning system in a vehicle to reduce the humidity entering into the interior of the vehicle is disclosed. One aspect of the disclosure is that a measure for the amount of water collected at the fresh air intake port is determined as a function of a sensor signal. Thereafter, the determined measure for the amount of water collected at the fresh air intake port may be used to control the air conditioning system in such a manner that the amount of air that is drawn in through the fresh air intake port is reduced.

Method for controlling an air conditioning system in a vehicle

In a method for controlling an electric drive, a controlled variable is adjusted to a desired value. To protect the electric drive, the controlled variable is first adjusted to the desired value in a precise manner. Thereafter, the control operation is interrupted, AND the difference between the controlled variable and the desired value is check continuously to see whether it exceed a preset threshold. Interruption of the control operation is terminated when the threshold has been reached or exceeded.
