20100186700 | CAMSHAFT PHASE ADJUSTER FOR CONCENTRIC CAMSHAFTS - The camshaft phaser is affixed to one end of a concentric camshaft. The phaser is a vane-type camshaft phaser where the stator and the sprocket are fixed to the outer camshaft and the trigger wheel and rotor are fixed to the inner camshaft. The torsion spring is mounted on an outer wall of the stator, between the stator and the trigger wheel. The phaser is a compact unit with a high degree of reliability. | 07-29-2010 |
20110253088 | STRUCTURAL UNIT FOR A GAS EXCHANGE VALVE TRAIN OF AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - A structural unit for a gas exchange valve train of an internal combustion engine is provided. The structural unit includes a support element ( | 10-20-2011 |
20120227692 | STEPPED ROTOR FOR CAMSHAFT PHASER - A rotor for a camshaft phaser assembly for an internal combustion engine. The rotor includes a base portion from which protrudes a plurality of vanes spaced over the circumference of the base portion of the rotor. An increased diameter stepped portion of the base portion of the rotor is provided over at least one section between at least two of the protruding vanes. The increased diameter portion allows for insertion of at least one locking pin assembly within the base portion of the rotor, reducing the remaining rotor base portion diameter to at least reduce material weight and size of the camshaft phaser assembly. | 09-13-2012 |
20140338618 | CAMSHAFT PHASER WITH A ROTOR NOSE OIL FEED ADAPTER - A camshaft phaser, including: a drive sprocket; a phaser section including a rotor with a first radially aligned channels, first axially aligned channels connected to the first radially aligned channels, and chambers formed by the rotor and a stator; and a rotor nose separately formed from the phaser section and non-rotatably connected to the phaser section, extending past a front side of the phaser section in an axial direction, and including second radially aligned channels and second axially aligned channels connected to the second radially aligned channels and the first axially aligned channels. The second radially aligned channels are arranged to receive fluid for the plurality of chambers to phase the phaser. The first radially aligned channels and the first and second axially aligned channels form respective flow paths for the fluid from the second radially aligned channels to the plurality of chambers. | 11-20-2014 |
20150040716 | DUAL INDEPENDENT PHASER WITH DUAL-SIDED LOCKING COVER - A dual independent phaser, including: one only single locking cover; a first phaser section including a first stator, a first rotor, a first plurality of chambers formed by a first rotor and the first stator, and first locking pin non-rotatably engaged with the first rotor and axially displaceable to non-rotatably connect the first rotor and the one only single locking cover; and second phaser section including second stator, a second rotor, a second plurality of chambers formed by a second rotor and the second stator, and second locking pin non-rotatably engaged with the second rotor and axially displaceable to non-rotatably connect the second rotor and the one only single locking cover. | 02-12-2015 |
20150053157 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR WINDING A RETURN SPRING WITH A TWO PIECE ROTOR FOR A CAM PHASER - A camshaft phaser, including: a drive sprocket; a stator; a rotor at least partially rotatable with the stator; a rotor extension fixedly connected to the rotor, having a slot at at least one outer circumferential position; a spring for biasing the rotor relative to the stator, having a first and a second end, the first end secured in the slot in the rotor extension and the second end secured on the stator. | 02-26-2015 |

20080221058 | Tumor-Specific Vector for Gene Therapy - The invention relates to a vector for the gene therapeutic treatment of tumors, especially in connection with radiotherapy. Said vector is provided with a therapeutic gene in the DNA sequence thereof. The gene is controlled by the promoter for the catalytic subunit of the telomerase or by the promoter for cyclin A. | 09-11-2008 |
20090291429 | SUBSTANCES CAUSING DIFFERENTIATION - A DNA construct is described which contains a fusion gene under the control of a promoter. The fusion gene comprises at least one resistance gene and at least one reporter gene and is slightly toxic to a host cell transfected with that DNA construct. That DNA construct can be encoded on a plasmid or a virus. Further, a method is described for using the DNA construct to identify substances that may cause a differentiation in eukaryotic cells. | 11-26-2009 |
20100047218 | REVERSIBLE IMMORTALIZATION - A gene complex for reversibly immortalizing cells contains an immortalizing gene region, which possesses at least a resistance gene, an immortalizing gene and, preferably, a suicide gene, and also two sequences which flank the gene region and which function as recognition sites for homologous intramolecular recombination, and at least one promoter located upstream of the gene region. A gene complex for immunomodulating cells contains a first immunomodulating gene region, whose expression inhibits the function of MHC I molecules, a second immunomodulating gene region, whose expression leads to the inactivation of natural killer cells, and a resistance gene. A method for obtaining cells involves preparing organ-related cells which are immortalized by transferring the first gene complex and immunomodulated by transferring the second gene complex. After the immortalized cells have been expanded, the immortalization is reversed. | 02-25-2010 |
