Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110069916BEARING DEVICE, RETENTION MECHANISM AND METHOD FOR RETAINING AT LEAST ONE PAD - Method, retention mechanism and bearing device for retaining at least one pad inside the bearing device. The bearing device includes a ring having at least a retaining head, at least one pad disposed inside the ring and having a bottom recess portion configured to receive the at least a retaining head, the at least one pad being configured to pivot on the at least a retaining head, and a retention mechanism configured to retain the at least one pad within a predetermined volume inside the ring. The retention mechanism is configured to apply a retaining force on the at least one pad, in addition to a force between the retaining head and the at least one pad, where the retaining force acts substantially along a radial direction of the ring, away from a center of the ring.03-24-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090307175PARALLEL PATTERN MATCHING ON MULTIPLE INPUT STREAMS IN A DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM - A method, system and computer program product for performing pattern matching in parallel for a plurality of input streams. The method includes calculating a memory address in a translation table responsive to a current input value, a current state and current state information. A transition rule is retrieved from the transition rule table at the memory address, the transition rule including a test input value, a test current state, and next state information. It is determined if the current input value and the current state match the test input value and the test current state. The current state information is updated with the next state information in response to determining that the current input value and the current state match the test input value and the test current state. The current state information is updated with contents of a default transition rule in response to determining that the current input value and the current state do not match the test input value and the test current state.12-10-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100294220INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH TWO INTAKE VALVES PER CYLINDER WHICH ARE AC TUATED HYDRAULICALLY AND HAVE DIFFERENTIATED RETURN SPRINGS - An internal combustion engine comprises at least two intake valves per cylinder, each of them provided with respective spring return means which push the valve towards a closed position. The intake valves of each cylinder are controlled by a single cam of an engine camshaft, through a single tappet actuated by said cam and through a hydraulic system. The hydraulic system comprises a master cylinder having a piston positively connected to said tappet and two hydraulic actuators respectively associated to the two intake valves and which are both hydraulically connected to a common pressure chamber of said master cylinder. The return spring means associated to the intake valves of one and the same engine cylinder have predetermined loadS and/or rigidities which are different from each other, in such a way that said intake valves have different lift profiles, so as to cause a swirl motion of the air fed into the engine cylinder, which allows to improve the air-fuel mixing.11-25-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090273981Methods and apparatuses for programming flash memory using modulated pulses - Methods and apparatuses for programming non-volatile semiconductor memory devices by using modulated pulses are disclosed. Embodiments generally comprise a pulse generator, to create a sequence of pulses and set a threshold voltage of a non-volatile memory cell, and a pulse coupler. Alternative embodiments may include a threshold verifier capable of verifying that the threshold voltage is set within an acceptable voltage range of a target threshold voltage. A pulse width modulator in some apparatus embodiments may modulate the pulse durations early in the sequence when programming fast bits and late in the sequence when programming slow bits. Method embodiments generally comprise generating a sequence of pulses, applying the sequence of pulses to a memory cell to set a threshold voltage of the memory cell, and modulating among pulses in the sequence the parameters of pulse duration, pulse separation time, and step voltage magnitude.11-05-2009
