20100234134 | Golf Club Face Having Encapsulated Tuned Structure - A golf club head has a face portion and a body portion. The face portion has a support frame, a matrix structure attached to and contained within the support frame, and a face material surrounding the matrix structure. In some aspects, the matrix structure may be a racquet structure that is tensioned to influence performance characteristics. The face material may be a metal, polymer, ceramic, or a combination thereof, and may be encapsulated over the matrix structure by suitable techniques such as coating, dipping, or molding processes such as injection molding or metal injection molding (MIM). In some aspects, the face material is lighter than the body portion of the club head, to concentrate mass away from the striking face, e.g., as in cup face technology. | 09-16-2010 |

20090186743 | Vehicle Launch Using a Transmission Input Clutch - A method for controlling a transmission input clutch during a vehicle launch includes selecting a subject device that transmits torque between an input and an output, a providing a mathematical model of the subject device, such that the model employing only static relationships of engine speed and transmission input speed to a desired magnitude of torque produced by the subject device, using the model, the current engine speed and the current engine speed to determine the desired torque produced by the subject device, and adjusting the torque capacity of the clutch to the desired torque of the subject device determined from the model. | 07-23-2009 |
20150046050 | METHOD FOR CHANGING FROM A COASTING OR FREE-ROLLING MODE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE TO A FUEL CUT-OFF MODE - The invention relates to a method and device for changing from a coasting or free-rolling mode of a motor vehicle with an internal combustion engine and an automatic clutch, which is disengaged during the coasting or free-rolling mode, to a fuel cut-off mode, in which the clutch is engaged, wherein before engagement of the clutch the internal combustion engine is brought to a revolution rate at which the engagement of the clutch induces no or only small changes in revolution rate in the drive train, and whereby the fuel supply to the internal combustion engine is reduced following engagement of the clutch. Under one or more predetermined conditions the increase of the drag torque of the internal combustion engine acting on the motor vehicle during the changeover from coasting or free-rolling mode to fuel cut-off mode takes place so slowly that the change is not usually noticed by the driver. | 02-12-2015 |

20120007749 | System for Identifying Vehicles in a Parking Facility - A sensor system for detecting a vehicle on a driving surface includes a sealed casing, an integrated circuit vehicle detector, an integrated circuit transmitter and controller, and a battery. The sealed casing has a top surface and defines a cavity therein. The integrated circuit vehicle detector is disposed within the cavity and is configured to generate a vehicle present electrical signal when the vehicle is within a predetermined distance from the sensor system. The integrated circuit transmitter and controller is disposed within the cavity and is in communication with the integrated circuit vehicle detector. The integrated circuit transmitter and controller is configured to generate a vehicle present radio frequency signal in response to the vehicle present electrical signal. The battery is disposed within the cavity and is electrically coupled to the integrated circuit vehicle detector and the integrated circuit transmitter and controller. | 01-12-2012 |
