20120061468 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TRANSACTIONAL BALLOT PROCESSING, AND BALLOT AUDITING - A voting unit and a ballot transaction processing system for processing a voting session. The voting unit includes an optical ballot scanner and a printer that is capable of printing a non-human readable barcode on ballots that are fed into the voting unit. The ballots are filled out (or cast) by the voter before being inserted into the voting unit. The voter can confirm the voting unit's interpretations of his/her selections on the scanned ballot via a display and confirm that the interpretations are correct via an input section on the voting unit. The ballot transaction processing system is also capable of generating, assigning and communicating to a plurality of voting units a set of unique transaction codes. In so doing, the ballot transaction processing system maintains voter secrecy, prevents ballot stuffing and provides a one-to-one correspondence between images of optically scanned ballots and the ballots themselves. | 03-15-2012 |

20090070017 | METHOD TO DETERMINE A FUEL COMPOSITION - The invention deals with a method to determine the fuel composition of a fuel mixture from a first fuel and a second fuel for the operation of an internal combustion engine, wherein the first and the second fuel have different octane numbers and wherein the internal combustion engine has at least one knock sensor and a closed-loop knock control. Provision is made according to the invention for the composition of the fuel mixture to be determined by means of an output signal of the knock sensor. Provision is made in many cases for the knock sensor to already be in the internal combustion engine, so that it does not present any additional expenditure of money or effort. Because the octane number of the fuel mixture is determined by the mixing ratio of the fuels involved, which have different octane numbers, in retrospect the composition of the fuel mixture can be suggested from the signal of the knock sensor under suitable operating conditions. | 03-12-2009 |
20090133678 | METHOD FOR TAKING THE OUTGASSING OF FUEL FROM THE ENGINE OIL OF AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE INTO ACCOUNT - The invention deals with a method for operating an internal combustion engine with engine oil as the lubricant, wherein a fuel mass flow outgassing from the engine oil is ascertained and is taken into account via a map-based pilot control during the metering of a quantity of fuel supplied to the internal combustion engine and wherein a fuel/air ratio supplied to the internal combustion engine is determined. Provision is made in the method according to the invention for a mass flow offset determined from the deviation of the fuel/air ratio supplied to the internal combustion engine from a nominal value to be taken into account when the metering of the quantity of fuel supplied to the internal combustion engine occurs during an effective duration of the map-based pilot control. The mass flow offset takes the deviation into account, which remained after the correction by a map-based pilot control of the quantity of fuel metered, on the basis of the modeled outgassing of fuel from the engine oil, and said mass flow offset balances the lambda controller in this way. The mass flow offset can by way of example have the effect of shortening the duration injection. The mixture deviations as a result of different boiling curves of the components of the fuel blend, which cannot be completely taken into account by the map-based pilot control under all operating conditions of the internal combustion engine, can in this way be compensated. | 05-28-2009 |
20090288476 | KNOCK DETECTION DEVICE FOR A COBUSTION ENGINE AND A METHOD FOR A COMBUSTION KNOCK DETECTION - In the field of knock detection in a combustion engine, a method and a device detects and controls the knock by adapting the gain of an amplifier which amplifies the knock sensor signal. The gain of the amplifier is adapted based on analysis of a set of samples from the knock sensor so that the amplification of the knock sensor signal across the entire measuring window is optimum and the complete ADC evaluation range can be utilized better. | 11-26-2009 |
20100198486 | METHOD FOR OPERATING AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - The invention relates to a method for operating an internal combustion engine, which can be operated with fuels and fuel mixtures of said fuels, said fuels differing from each other in the air quantity they require for a stoichiometric combustion. A fuel quantity to be supplied to the internal combustion engine is corrected via a mixture adaptation and a fuel adaptation, the mixture adaptation and the fuel adaptation being based on a lambda control and a fuel quantity contained in the fuel reservoir of the internal combustion engine prior to refueling and a fuel quantity supplied to the reservoir being determined. The method is characterized by using the change of the fuel adaptation after refueling towards a fuel/air mixture having a higher or a lower fuel percentage to extrapolate the supplied fuel or the supplied fuel mixture and the fuel quantity present in the reservoir and the knowledge of the nature of the fuel or the fuel mixture supplied to the reservoir are used to calculate the fuel mixture ration in the reservoir after refueling. The method according to the invention allows determination of the fuel mixture ratio in the reservoir of internal combustion engines which can be operated with different fuels. | 08-05-2010 |
