| 20090056817 | Fuel pressure regulator for vehicle - In one embodiment, a fuel pressure regulator includes a housing defining a fuel inlet and a fuel outlet, and a ball in the housing is movable between a closed configuration, wherein fluid communication between the inlet and outlet is blocked, and an open configuration, wherein fluid communication between the inlet and outlet is not blocked. Fuel pressure urges the ball toward the open configuration. A spring in the housing is engaged with the ball to urge the ball toward the closed configuration. Also, a ball holder is engaged with the ball and spring and is oriented to receive fluid pressure from the inlet when the ball is moved away from the closed configuration. Fluid pressure from the inlet acts directly against the ball holder as well as against the ball to assist moving the ball toward the open configuration. | 03-05-2009 |

| 20100109783 | Reconfigurable Amplifier and Filter Using Time-Varying Circuits - A reconfigurable system is used for amplifying, filtering, and sampling analog signals. Unlike conventional analog filters and amplifiers based on linear time-invariant systems and classical filter responses such as Butterworth or Chebyshev filters, the system described here uses parallel branches comprising time-varying circuits. An input voltage or current is communicated to a number of parallel branches and each branch processes a segment of the input signal using time-varying circuits such as analog multipliers and/or super-regenerative amplifiers. The time-window of the input signal processed by each branch is equal in length, but offset in time from all other branches. The output of each branch is a series of filtered and amplified samples of the input signal. The output samples of all branches are then time-interleaved in the analog domain, or digitized using separate analog-to-digital converters and then time-interleaved digitally. By using time-varying circuits, sharper filters and greater amplification is achieved while consuming less integrated-circuit area and power. The time-varying circuits in each branch are controlled by synthesized signals that determine the filter response and gain of the overall system. As a result, better flexibility and reconfigurability are achieved compared with classical filters and amplifiers. | 05-06-2010 |

| 20100209005 | REGISTRATION AND COMPARISON OF THREE DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS - Information of different scans of physical objects may require comparison, for example to determine if the scans are of the same object or if an object has changed, or better information for a three dimensional model may be desired. Different scans of physical objects may be compared by determining lines or planes tangent to a surface at a discrete number of points, registering three dimensional information provided by the scans using the tangent lines or planes, and determining a measure of discrepancy between the surfaces. Three dimensional information of different scans of the same object may also be merged after determining lines or planes tangent to a surface at a discrete number of points and performing registration and merging. | 08-19-2010 |
