Electromechanical flap actuation mechanism: BayerRecent Research Landscape

Mechanical failure or power loss in motorized vehicle flaps prevents access to critical charging or storage ports. These innovations integrate secondary manual or redundant actuation paths to ensure fail-safe operation.

What technical problems is Bayer addressing in Electromechanical flap actuation mechanism?

Restricted manual access failure

(10)evidences

Mechanical or electrical failure prevents access to critical vehicle compartments during power loss. Resolving this ensures safety and operational continuity during system malfunctions.

Unreliable flap movement control

(10)evidences

Inconsistent or obstructed opening cycles in vehicle exterior panels lead to mechanical failure or user safety risks. Ensuring predictable motion paths prevents hardware damage and operational stalls.

Insecure vehicle flap closure

(9)evidences

Mechanical instability and lack of secure positioning in vehicle closures. Preventing accidental opening or shifting ensures passenger safety and aerodynamic integrity.

Excessive aerodynamic drag

(5)evidences

Sudden or violent movement during flap deployment causes mechanical shock and potential component damage. Managing kinetic energy through damping prevents structural failure and improves operational safety.

Uncontrolled closure impact forces

(3)evidences

Sudden or forceful movement during automated flap operation leads to mechanical stress and safety hazards. Preventing abrupt closure protects structural integrity and user safety.
