Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt mit einer Einrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 sowie einem Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 6. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.The solution of this object is achieved with a device having the features of claim 1 and a method having the features of claim 6. Advantageous embodiments and modifications of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.
Der Erfindung liegt die Idee zugrunde, dass die Stelleinrichtung mit der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung mittels einer ein Eingangs- und ein Ausgangsteil aufweisenden Kupplung verbunden ist, deren Eingangsteil der Stelleinrichtung und deren Ausgangsteil der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung zugeordnet ist und die Kupplung eine Reibungskupplung ist, wobei die die Kupplung steuernden Parameter der Kupplung für die Betätigung der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung bestimmend ist und zur mechanischen Verbindung der Eingabeeinrichtung mit der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung die Eingabeeinrichtung mit dem Ausgangsteil der Kupplung kraftübertragend verbindbar ist, wobei eine Entkoppelung der Stelleinrichtung von der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung abhängig vom Reibwert der Reibungskupplung bei Überschreiten einer vorgegebenen Kraft zwischen Eingangs- und Ausgangsteil der Reibungskupplung erfolgt. Damit ist es möglich, die Stelleinrichtung von der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung zu entkoppeln, so dass die Stellung der Stelleinrichtung nicht mehr für die Stellung der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung maßgeblich ist.The invention is based on the idea that the adjusting device is connected to the power control device by means of a coupling having an input and an output part whose input part is assigned to the adjusting device and whose output part is the power control device and the clutch is a friction clutch, wherein the parameters controlling the clutch the clutch for the actuation of the power control device is determining and for the mechanical connection of the input device with the power control device, the input device with the output part of the clutch is force-transmitting connectable, wherein a decoupling of the actuator of the power control device depending on the coefficient of friction of the friction clutch when exceeding a predetermined force between Input and output part of the friction clutch takes place. This makes it possible to decouple the actuating device from the power control device, so that the position of the actuating device is no longer relevant to the position of the power control device.
Vorzugsweise ist bei einem Abweichen des mittels der Eingabeeinrichtung fahrerseitig eingegebenen reduzierten Leistungswunsches von der mittels der Stelleinrichtung eingestellten Stellung der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung um mindestens einen vorgegebenen Betrag oder bei einer fahrerseitigen Eingabe eines reduzierten Leistungswunsches mittels der Eingabeeinrichtung mit einem einen vorgegebenen Gradienten übersteigenden Gradienten in Schließrichtung der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung eine mechanische Verbindung zwischen Eingabeeinrichtung und Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung wirksam. Dadurch wird der mittels der Eingabeeinrichtung mechanisch fahrerseitig eingegebene Leistungswunsch der auf Sensorsignalen basierenden Stellung der Stelleinrichtung vorgezogen und so die Sicherheit erhöht.Preferably, in the case of a deviation of the reduced desired power input by means of the input device from the setting of the power control device by at least a predetermined amount or by a driver input of a reduced power request by the input device with a gradient exceeding a predetermined gradient in the closing direction of the power control device mechanical connection between input device and power control device is effective.

Mit dieser Ausführung ist in einem Normalbetrieb eine Betätigung der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung mittels der Stelleinrichtung unter Berücksichtung des Ausgangssignals der Sensoreinrichtung zur Erfassung der Stellung der Eingabeeinrichtung möglich, während unter Bestimmten Voraussetzungen eine abweichende Betätigung erfolgen kann.It is advantageous if the output part of the coupling has a counter contour corresponding to a contour assigned to the input device.

Zweckmäßigerweise ist beim Öffnen der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung mittels der Stelleinrichtung die Kupplung bewegungsübertragend und beim vorrangigen Schließen der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung mittels der Eingabeeinrichtung die Kupplung nicht bewegungsübertragend.Conveniently, when opening the power control device by means of the adjusting device, the clutch movement transmitting and the priority closing of the power control device by means of the input device, the clutch is not movement-transmitting.

Gemäß einer besonders bevorzugten Weiterbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird im Falle einer Bevorzugung des mittels der Eingabeeinrichtung fahrerseitig eingegebenen Leistungswunsches die Stelleinrichtung von der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung entkoppelt und die Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung mittels der Eingabeeinrichtung unmittelbar betätigt.According to a particularly preferred development of the method according to the invention, in the case of a preference for the desired power input by means of the input device on the driver side, the actuating device is decoupled from the power control device and the Power control device operated directly by means of the input device.
Weitere Vorteile ergeben sich, wenn außerdem bei einer fahrerseitigen Eingabe eines erhöhten Leistungswunsches mittels der Eingabeeinrichtung mit einem einen vorgegebenen Gradienten übersteigenden Gradienten eineFurther advantages result if, in addition, when a driver-side input of an increased power requirement by means of the input device with a predetermined gradient exceeding a gradient
Betätigung der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung mittels der Stelleinrichtung vom Signal der Eingabeeinrichtung abweichend mit einem begrenzten Gradienten erfolgt. Damit wird eine übermäßig schnelle Betätigung der Leistungssteuerungseinrichtung in Öffnungsrichtung verhindert.Actuation of the power control device takes place by means of the adjusting device from the signal of the input device deviating with a limited gradient. Thus, an excessively fast actuation of the power control device in the opening direction is prevented.
