20100071649 | BALL PLUNGER FOR USE IN A HYDRAULIC LASH ADJUSTER AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME - A cold-formed ball plunger blank is provided for use in manufacturing a finished ball plunger used in a hydraulic lash adjuster that includes a check valve assembly having a check ball and a retainer. The ball plunger blank includes a cup-shaped member that extends from a first end to a second end along a longitudinal axis. The cup-shaped member includes a ball portion adjacent the first end of the member and a body portion adjacent the second end of the member. The body portion has a cavity disposed therein, a counterbore extending from the second end of the body towards the first end of the member, and a shoulder that separates the cavity from the counterbore and at least partially closes the cavity. The shoulder defines a ball seat surface configured to receive the check ball and a retainer receiving surface configured to receive the retainer, wherein the ball seat surface and the retainer receiving surface are to sized to the final dimensions of the finished ball plunger. A method of cold-forming a ball plunger blank including providing a slug having first and second ends, backward extruding the slug at its first end to form a cavity that is defined by a wall, forming a generally ball-shaped outer surface at the second end of the slug to final dimensions, and upsetting at least a portion of the wall to form a shoulder that at least partially closes the cavity and defines a ball seat surface to its final dimensions. | 03-25-2010 |
20110277715 | COLD-FORMED FLAT TOP PLUNGER FOR USE IN A HYDRAULIC LASH ADJUSTER AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME - A cold-formed flat top plunger blank is provided for use in a hydraulic lash adjuster. An end wall at the first end of the plunger body defines a flat top surface that is cold-formed to final dimensions or net shape. The flat top surface at the first end of the plunger body is configured to engage a flat surface within the mating bore of an engine cylinder head. By configuring the plunger body to have a flat top surface that engages a flat surface disposed within the mating bore of an engine cylinder head, the force applied to the engine block by the lash adjuster is distributed more evenly, minimizing wear. The external flat top plunger is a unitary component cold-formed to near net shape, including cold-forming to final dimensions the flat top surface and a counterbore. | 11-17-2011 |
20120234067 | BALL PLUNGER FOR USE IN A HYDRAULIC LASH ADJUSTER AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME - A method of cold-forming a ball plunger blank includes providing a slug having first and second ends and backward extruding the slug at its first end to form a cavity that is defined by a wall. The method further includes forming a generally ball-shaped outer surface at the second end of the slug to final dimensions. The method also includes upsetting at least a portion of the wall to form a shoulder that at least partially closes the cavity and defines a ball seat surface to final dimensions. | 09-20-2012 |

20120152187 | PUMP ACTUATOR ANTI-ROTATION DEVICE - A tappet having a contiguous body, an outer wall and transverse web. The outer wall defines a cylindrically-shaped outer surface and a recess. The recess is disposed within cylindrical surface of the body. An alignment member is press-fit between two staked ends of the recess, which engage opposite sides of the alignment member. The alignment member extends outwardly from the cylindrically-shaped surface. A roller is mounted to the contiguous body at the cam contacting end of the tappet. | 06-21-2012 |

20100058842 | SELF-PROPELLED SENSOR APPARATUS FOR IN SITU ANALYSIS OF ENVIROMENTAL PARAMETERS - A self-propelled apparatus for analyzing a component contained in a fluid medium. The self-propelled apparatus uses kinetic energy of the apparatus to drive a fluid under analysis through the apparatus. This is accomplished by use of a conveyance system that is attached to the analytical system of the apparatus. A sensor system is used to analyze the component collected within the confines of an analysis chamber, a part of the analysis system. The invention also includes a method of using the analytical apparatus. | 03-11-2010 |
20100058843 | SELF-PROPELLED SENSOR APPARATUS FOR IN SITU ANALYSIS OF ENVIROMENTAL PARAMETERS - A submersible, self-propelled apparatus for analyzing a component contained in a liquid medium. The submersible, self-propelled apparatus uses kinetic energy of the apparatus to drive a liquid under analysis through the apparatus. This is accomplished by use of a conveyance system that is attached to the analytical system of the apparatus. A sensor system is used to analyze the component collected within the confines of an analysis chamber, a part of the analysis system. The invention also includes a method of using the analytical apparatus. | 03-11-2010 |
