Method for providing anti-trap protection for a motor vehicle
View Patent ↗A method provides anti-trap protection for a motor vehicle, in which a miniature safety edge is arranged on a first interior component which is movable in automated fashion relative to a second interior component by way of a control device. An automated movement of the interior components relative to one another via the control device is prevented when the miniature safety edge is actuated.
1 . A method for providing anti-trap protection for an automobile, comprising:
arranging a miniature safety edge on a first interior component which is movable in automated fashion along a first vehicle longitudinal axis relative to a second interior component by way of a control device, and which is movable in automated fashion along a second vehicle vertical axis by way of the control device, the second axis being different than the first axis, and
preventing automated movement of the first interior component, by way of the control device, when the miniature safety edge is actuated,
wherein the miniature safety edge is arranged on a cover element when the miniature safety edge is arranged on the cover blind, the cover element being rotatable between the first axis and the second axis, and the miniature safety edge is oriented depending on a movement direction of the first component.
2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the miniature safety edge is arranged on an outer side of the first interior component.
3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the miniature safety edge is arranged on an electrically lowerable cover blind having an electrically adjustable trunk roller blind, as the first interior component.
4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the miniature safety edge is arranged on the cover element of the cover blind configured as a latching element, and
the latching element is lockable to the second interior component and the miniature safety edge is actuatable during said locking.
5 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein
the miniature safety edge is arranged on the cover element of the cover blind configured as a latching element, and
the latching element is lockable to the second interior component and the miniature safety edge is actuatable during said locking.
6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the miniature safety edge is connected to the first interior component via a plug-in connection.
7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein:
the second axis is perpendicular to the first axis.
8 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein:
the electrically lowerable cover blind is movable along the second axis to a stowed position, when the electrically adjustable trunk roller blind is in a retracted position.
9 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein:
the first axis is a vehicle longitudinal axis, and the second axis is a vehicle vertical axis.
