A drive system for a pedal-operable vehicle, including a drive motor, pedals on pedal arms, a bottom bracket spindle on which the pedal arms are mounted, and a drive mechanism for transferring drive energy. A clearance is present in a transfer path between a pedal arm and a drive wheel, rotating with the bottom bracket spindle, of the drive mechanism. The system includes a return device with which the clearance-affected parts are transferable, at or below an idle pedal force within their clearance with respect to one another, into an idle position in which the clearance-affected parts assume a predefined relative position; the clearance-affected parts being removable, within the clearance, from the idle position by way of pedal force above the idle pedal force against the action of the return device; and information as to whether the clearance-affected parts are in an idle position being furnishable as electrical signals.

Drive system for a pedal-operable vehicle and method for sensing the state of a pedal drive

A micromirror including a first layer having a first main extension plane, and a second layer having a second main extension plane, the first main extension plane and the second main extension plane being situated parallel to one another, the first layer and the second layer being sectionally connected to one another via at least one connection area, at least one spring element being implemented in the first layer, a movably suspended mirror plate being implemented in the second layer, the mirror plate having a mirror surface on a first side parallel to the main extension plane and being connected on an opposing second side via the connection area to an anchor of the spring element, a part of the spring element on the second side of the mirror plate being movably situated in relation to the mirror plate. A two-mirror system having such a micromirror is also provided.

Micromirror

A micromechanical component having a control element is described, which is connected via at least one supply line spring having a supply line spring constant to a mounting support in an adjustable manner, and a drive device having at least one actuator component situated on the control element. Via at least one line component guided over the at least one supply line spring an electric potential or a current signal is able to be provided to the actuator component in such a way that the control element is able to be set by the drive device into a motion with respect to the mounting support. The control element is additionally connected to the mounting support, and the supply line spring constant is less than vibratory spring constant. Also described is a method for producing a micromechanical component.
