20080302887Fuel Injector Having Directly Actuatable Injection Valve Element - A fuel injector for an internal combustion engine is proposed having a directly actuatable injection valve element. The fuel injector has a nozzle needle, axially guided in a nozzle body, and an actuator accommodated in an injector housing. The nozzle needle is connected to a coupling piston on the nozzle-needle side and the actuator is connected to a coupling piston on the actuator side. The coupling piston on the actuator side acts on a coupling chamber and the coupling piston on the nozzle-needle side acts on a control chamber. The nozzle needle is lifted from a nozzle-needle sealing seat as a function of the pressure in the control space. An intermediate plate is provided between injector housing and nozzle body. The plate has a conduit hydraulically connecting the coupling chamber to the control chamber. The conduit contains a hydraulic throttle which has at least two sections having different cross sections of flow. The section having the smaller cross section of flow faces the coupling chamber and the section having the larger cross section of flow faces the control chamber. The throttle disclosed suppresses oscillations of the actuator in the transmission of the actuator stroke to the nozzle needle stroke.12-11-2008

20090213269Content Slider - Systems and methods include displaying information associated with various media and/or items of media content. Certain aspects include receiving input that identifies a parameter characterizing one or more media or items of content. A plurality of values for the parameter may be identified, and in some cases, the plurality may be ordered. Each value may be associated with one or more items of content characterized by the parameter. Input that identifies a first set of the plurality may be received, and a monitor may be instructed to display information associated with the first set. Various aspects include the display of a control bar, which may include a slider. In some cases, the receipt of input includes receiving a signal from a remote control. In certain cases, input may be associated with operation of a control bar and/or a slider.08-27-2009
