A method for controlling a warning module based on an expected time period up to a collision of a vehicle with an obstacle, including: permitting an outputting of a generated warning to a driver of the vehicle if the expected time period up to the collision is shorter than a limiting value function, which depends on a speed of the obstacle and/or a relative speed of the vehicle with respect to the obstacle, and otherwise suppressing a warning to the driver; in which the warning module is configured to generate the warning of an imminent triggering of an automatic emergency braking process of the vehicle to avoid the collision. Also described is a related device and computer readable medium.

Method and device for controlling a warning module

The present invention relates to a method and device for triggering an automatic emergency braking process in a vehicle to avoid a tail-end collision with an obstacle, wherein a warning to the driver is triggered if at least one warning condition is satisfied, wherein the satisfaction of the warning condition specifies that owing to the instantaneous driving situation of the vehicle relative to the obstacle the automatic emergency braking process should be triggered, wherein the automatic emergency braking process is not triggered until after the warning to the driver is triggered and a warning time period has subsequently expired, wherein the warning time period is set as a function of the relative movement situation between the vehicle and the obstacle and/or is adapted as a function of a relative movement, which changes over time, between the vehicle and the obstacle.

Method for triggering an automatic emergency braking process with variable warning time period

A compressed-air supply device for commercial vehicles is provided. The compressed-air supply device may be connected electrically to an electronic control device that may actuate at least one control valve. The control valve has at least one inlet, one ventilating connection and one outlet. The compressed-air supply device has a control line which is connected to the control valve outlet and may be connected to a control inlet of a compressor and/or an inlet of a regeneration valve, has a supply line via which compressed air may be guided to the control valve inlet, and has a ventilating line connected to the control valve ventilating connection. The control valve may be ventilated via the ventilating line, and is configured such that at a predefined opening pressure in the supply line it pneumatically produces a fluid-conducting connection between the inlet and the outlet such that the control line is ventilated.
