Ralph Engelberg, Ditzingen DE

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080289610Pulse Supercharger in the Intake Tract of an Internal Combustion Engine - A pulse supercharger for internal combustion engines, in which the pulse supercharger is situated in a charge air duct. The flow cross-section of the charge air duct for a charge air flow is opened or closed via the pulse supercharger. The pulse supercharger includes two synchronously operatable rotary slide elements.11-27-2008
20120074245Device for injecting fuel - A device is described for injecting fuel, which includes a valve body, an outwardly opening valve needle, which is disposed in the valve body in a pressure chamber filled with fuel, to which pressurized fuel is supplied; a restoring element, which returns the valve needle to an original position; an electromagnetic actuator, which is disposed in an actuator chamber for actuating the valve needle; and a diaphragm, which is disposed in the actuator chamber and subdivides the actuator chamber into a first, fuel-filled region and a second, fuel-free region in fluid-tight manner, and which subdivides the valve needle into an injection-side portion and an actuator-side portion, the injection-side portion of the valve needle including a pressure-compensation plunger, which separates the pressure chamber from the first, fuel-filled region of the actuator chamber, the actuator being disposed in the second, fuel-free region.03-29-2012

Richard J. Engelberg, Portland, OR US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120041767Athletic Activity User Experience and Environment - User activity including both athletic activity (e.g., running, walking, etc.) and non-athletic activity (shopping, reading articles, etc.) may be monitored and tracked by an athletic monitoring and tracking device and service. The user activity may be used to award a user with an amount of virtual currency to encourage the user to continue various activities. In one example, users may use the virtual currency to purchase or otherwise acquire various products, services, discounts and the like. A user may track an amount currency earned and/or needed relative to an amount required to acquire a desired product or service. Additionally or alternatively, a visual appearance of a user device (e.g., a watch or athletic activity band) may change based on the user's activity level, an amount of virtual currency earned and the like.02-16-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120047108POINT-IN-TIME (PIT) BASED THIN RECLAMATION SUPPORT FOR SYSTEMS WITH A STORAGE USAGE MAP API - A method, a system and/or and an apparatus to minimize data loss by de-allocating storage space with the help of an Application Programming Interface (API). In one embodiment, the method includes reclaiming data storage in a storage device slated as a reclamation target by redirecting write commands intended for the reclamation target to a point-in-time volume of the reclamation target; generating a list of portions of storage from the reclamation target such that each portion of storage has an API state of unused as per a system that uses the storage device; and includes converting a reclamation state associated with each of the portions of storage to a state of ‘unused’. In addition, the method involves synchronization of the point-in-time volume with the reclamation target to capture any changes that might be associated with the point-in-time volume.02-23-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120158684PERFORMANCE ENHANCED SYNCHRONIZATION MECHANISM WITH INTENSITY-ORIENTED READER API - A method for synchronizing data operations in a multi-threaded computer system using a hybrid lock data structure that allows the computer system to dynamically implement a low contention cost lock or a low overhead cost lock based on the intensity of the memory operation.06-21-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080246318Device for Adjusting Seat Components - A device for adjusting seat components as a function of a signal from a video sensor system. Furthermore, a safety belt is adjusted as well as a function of the signal. This adjustment is carried out as a function of the occupant class, the occupant volume, the occupant pose, and the head position.10-09-2008
20090304263Method for classifying an object using a stereo camera - A method is provided for classifying an object using a stereo camera, the stereo camera generating a first and a second image using a first and a second video sensor respectively. In order to classify the object, the first and the second image are compared with one another in predefined areas surrounding corresponding pixel coordinates, the pixel coordinates for at least one model, at least one position and at least one distance from the stereo camera being made available.12-10-2009
20100165099Antiglare system for a vehicle - An antiglare system in a vehicle includes a device for controlling antiglare means. The device includes at least one image acquisition means. The antiglare means is controlled as a function of a first signal of the image acquisition means. The light intensity in the passenger compartment of the vehicle is taken into account in controlling the antiglare means.07-01-2010
20120087546METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETERMINING PROCESSED IMAGE DATA ABOUT A SURROUND FIELD OF A VEHICLE - A method for determining processed image data about a surround field of a vehicle includes a step of combining a map information item with a position and an orientation of the vehicle and with an image of the surround field acquired by a surround-field monitoring device of the vehicle, in order to obtain a position-specific image of the surround field. In addition, the method includes a step of processing the position-specific image so as to include at least one symbol that is assigned to a classified object in the position-specific image, in order to determine the processed image data.04-12-2012
