Method and device for visualizing a vehicle repairing
First Claim
1. A method of providing image data for visualizing at least one of a defective part, a repair sequence, and a maintenance service sequence of a road-bound vehicle, the method comprising the acts of:
- providing digitized data of at least two components of the vehicle, said digitized data being capable of being visualized;
providing digitized data of an arrangement of the at least two components of the vehicle relative to one another, said digitized data being capable of being visualized;
operating a first selection element for selecting a first procedural sequence from a plurality of procedural sequences; and
based on the operating act, providing image data of a first step of the first procedure sequence and, subsequently, providing image data of a second step of the first procedure sequence.

Abstract
A method is provided for providing image data for visualizing a defective part and/or a repair process and/or a maintenance service of a road-bound vehicle, in particular a car or motorcycle. The aim is to reduce the translation costs for repair manuals. The method is characterized by the following: digital data is provided for at least two vehicle parts, in particular CAD data, vector data or another form of digital data suitable for visualizing is provided; digital data on the location of said two vehicle parts with respect to each other is also provided; a first selection element is provided for selecting a first repair operation from a plurality thereof, data, i.e., image data of the first stage of said first repair operation is provided, afterwards image data of the second stage of the first repair operation is provided.

13. A device for visualizing at least one of a defective part, a repair sequence and a maintenance service sequence of a road-bound vehicle, the device comprising:
-
a data processing system;
a display coupled with the data processing system;
a wireless receiving device which receives fault or condition data from a diagnostic system of a motor vehicle;
wherein the data processing system displays at least one repair sequence, which is assigned to the received fault or condition data for the corresponding motor vehicle; and
wherein the display is a touch-sensitive display, by which a manual touching of at least one corresponding selection element illustrated in the display influences a display representation of the repair sequence. - View Dependent Claims (14)

15. A computer program product, comprising:
a computer readable medium having stored thereon program code segments that;
provide digital data for at least two vehicle components, said digital data being suitable for visualizing;
provide digital data on a location of said two vehicle components with respect to one another;
recognize a selection of a first repair sequence from a plurality of stored repair sequences; and
provide image data of a first stage of the first repair sequence and, afterwards, provide image data of at least a second stage of the first repair sequence.
