| 20100224454 | Stepless pressure-varying shock absorber - A shock absorber includes a partitioning board fixed in a chamber of a cylinder to separate the chamber into first and second compartments receiving a damping fluid. The partitioning board includes a first through-hole in communication with the first and second compartments. A buffering disc is mounted in the chamber and forms a bottom end of the second compartment. A rod is slidably received in the chamber and slideably extends through the first through-hole. A damping valve is securely mounted around the rod and is slideably received in the first compartment. The rod has downwardly decreasing cross sections. A gap is formed between an inner periphery of the first through-hole and an outer periphery of the rod. When the rod moves downward, an area of the gap decreases gradually to gradually increase resistance to the damping fluid flowing from the first compartment into the second compartment via the first through-hole. | 09-09-2010 |

| 20110191107 | Structure for Grammar and Dictionary Representation in Voice Recognition and Method for Simplifying Link and Node-Generated Grammars - A speech recognition engine is provided with an acoustic model and a layered grammar and dictionary library. The layered grammar and dictionary library includes a language and non-grammar layer that supplies types of rules a grammar definition layer can use and defines non-grammar the speech recognition engine should ignore. The layered grammar and dictionary library also includes a dictionary layer that defines phonetic transcriptions for word groups the speech recognition engine is meant to recognize when voice input is received. The layered grammar and dictionary library further includes a grammar definition layer that applies rules from the language and non-grammar layer to define combinations of word groups the speech recognition system is meant to recognize. Voice input is received at a speech recognition engine and is processed using the acoustic model and the layered grammar and dictionary library. | 08-04-2011 |
