Abstract
The invention relates to a system for automatic tilt compensation within a vehicle, comprising a first assembly and a second assembly which is pivotally connected to the first assembly by means of a first axis, wherein the system further comprises a pendulum arrangement which is pivotally connected to the second assembly by means of a second axis arranged above the first axis and at an upper end of the pendulum arrangement, wherein a deflection of the pendulum arrangement relative to the second assembly can be detected.

A system for automatic tilt compensation within a vehicle, the system comprising:
- a first assembly;
- a second assembly that is pivotally connected to the first assembly by a first axis;
- and
- a pendulum arrangement that is pivotally connected to the second assembly by a second axis arranged above the first axis and at an upper end of the pendulum arrangement,
- wherein a deflection of the pendulum arrangement relative to the second assembly can be detected,
- wherein the second assembly comprises at least one first contact element for closing a circuit,
- wherein the pendulum arrangement has at least one second contact element for closing the circuit at a lower end,
- wherein the at least one first and the at least one second contact element are spaced apart from one another in an initial position of the pendulum arrangement and can be arranged in contact with one another by the deflection of the pendulum arrangement relative to the second assembly, and
- wherein the second assembly has a rocker element that is rotatably mounted about the first axis and on an upper side of which the at least one first contact element is arranged.
A system for automatic tilt compensation within a vehicle, the system comprising:
- a first assembly;
- a second assembly that is pivotally connected to the first assembly by a first axis;
- and
- a pendulum arrangement that is pivotally connected to the second assembly by a second axis arranged above the first axis and at an upper end of the pendulum arrangement,
- wherein a deflection of the pendulum arrangement relative to the second assembly can be detected, and
- wherein the pendulum arrangement comprises a pendulum element that can be deflected about the second axis by a pivot bearing that provides damping.
