Abstract
A device for locating a vehicle for an inductive energy transmission from an inductive charging device to the vehicle includes an ultrasound transmitter, which emits at least one first ultrasonic signal. At least three ultrasound receivers are situated on the vehicle, which receive an ultrasonic signal sequence having a direct receive signal and further receive signals in each case. A processing unit is situated on the vehicle, which is developed to ascertain the earliest receive direct receive signals within the ultrasonic signal sequences and to ascertain a position of the vehicle relative to the primary coil of the inductive charging device as a function of the ascertained direct receive signals.
