In at least some implementations, a fuel tank includes a tank body defining a chamber adapted to receive liquid fuel therein, a reinforcement for the tank body to permit the pressure within the chamber to exceed the vapor pressure of a fuel to be received within the chamber, and an inlet to the tank body through which fuel is added to the chamber. The inlet is configured to mate with a refueling nozzle through which fuel is added to the chamber to permit refueling the tank and maintaining the pressure in the chamber above atmospheric pressure.

Tubing for a liquid medium that is to be conditioned, including an inner tube for the liquid-medium that is to be conditioned encompassed by an outer tube, parallel to the inner tube. An outermost tube surrounds the outer tube. At least one duct for the liquid conditioning medium, is disposed between the inner tube and the outer tube and at least one duct for the liquid conditioning medium is disposed between the outer tube and the outermost tube. A redirecting region connects the ducts between the inner tube and outer tube and the outer tube and the outermost tube. The inner tube and the outer tube consist of thermoplastic plastics, and the unit, consisting of the inner tube and the outer tube, is produced by co-extrusion.

Tubing for a liquid medium that is to be conditioned

The invention relates to a climate control system for the interior of a motor vehicle, having a blower regulator, heating control unit or brushless blower motor, as well as function components such as operating elements, sensors, clocking valves and adjusting drive mechanisms, which are connected to one another and to the vehicle battery via connecting lines and to which the information required to operate the blower regulator, heating control unit or brushless blower motor are transmitted. The cabling and the control/regulation are minimized and simplified by providing that the blower regulator, the heating control unit, or the brushless blower motor is combined with the function components to make a pre-wired climate control unit, to which the supply voltage of the vehicle battery; that the blower regulator, the heating control unit, or the brushless blower motor is designed in bus-capable fashion with a microcomputer, which communicates via a bus interface with a climate control operating device supplied by the supply voltage; and that the information required for operating the climate control apparatus can be transmitted between the climate control operating device and microcomputer as part of a bus protocol on the bus interface.

A power MOS transistor having a PMT chip located in a transistor housing in which the temperature of the transistor barrier junction is monitored is described. Protection of the PMT chip against overload and permanent damage is guaranteed without negatively affecting its switching function in that a protective circuit is provided in the transistor housing which directly measures the temperature of the transistor barrier junction using a temperature measuring element, and when a predefined or predefinable limit barrier junction temperature is reached reduces the drain current and thus the power loss of the PMT chip, the temperature measuring element being integrated in the PMT chip or accommodated in the transistor housing together with the protective circuit as an additional chip.

To prevent change of data in a non-volatile programmable, ready-only memory (25) forming, together with a microprocessor (23) a control unit, for example for an automotive vehicle, while permitting programming of the memory from an external programming unit (P, 1), an interface (3, 11, 12) is provided through which a release-enable bus (13) also passes, data being transmitted in accordance with a predetermined characteristic--even or odd parity--, the parity correctness being checked. If the parity is correct, an 'enter' signal is provided on the release-enable bus for storing the data; if not, retransmission is attempted for a predetermined number of time, and if it cannot be correctly effected, a malfunction indication output signal is generated.
