| 20090221896 | Probe For Data Transmission Between A Brain And A Data Processing Device - The invention relates to a probe for data transmission between a brain and a data processing device. Said probe has a support with electrodes fitted thereto. Said electrodes can be made to electromagnetically interact with neurons of the brain for the purpose of detecting neuronal activity and/or the transmission of stimuli and can be coupled to the data processing device. The shape of the support can be adapted to an inner surface of the brain to such a degree that it can be inserted into the interior of a sulcus of the brain. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20100274746 | Method and Device for Computer-Aided Prediction of Intended Movements - Method and device for computer-aided prediction of intended movements from neuronal signals of a brain, wherein the neuronal signals are each associated in the brain with intended movements, wherein neuronal signals are recorded and the most probable movements are determined from these, specifically using a predetermined model in which a recorded neuronal signal and a determined movement are assigned to each other, and, for the probability with which a recorded neuronal signal corresponds to a respective predetermined movement, a predetermined distribution is assumed that is defined by specific characteristic values, wherein an adaptation of the neuronal signal is included in the predetermined model. | 10-28-2010 |

| 20110079013 | FUEL INJECTOR AND AERODYNAMIC FLOW DEVICE - A gas turbine engine includes a reverse flow annular combustor having a liner with opposing ends. One end includes apertures configured to receive compressed air, and an outlet is provided at the other end and is configured to connect to a turbine nozzle. A fuel injector extends through the liner at a base and axially between the apertures and the outlet. The fuel injector includes a housing extending from the base to a dome and provides an exterior surface surrounding an injector cavity. The exterior surface has forward and rearward surfaces respectively facing the apertures and the outlet and provides shapes that are different than one another to influence and improve the aerodynamic flow field of the gas mixture (i.e., air, fuel and combustion-products) within the combustor volume. | 04-07-2011 |

| 20080308050 | CYLINDER HEAD FOR AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - The invention relates to a cylinder head ( | 12-18-2008 |
| 20110056456 | CYLINDER HEAD WITH OIL RETURN - Engine oil may pool in various locations in the cylinder head near the valves and underneath the camshaft. Rather than directly conducting the oil to the oil return passages, the oil is conducted to a surface proximate the exhaust ducts before being conducted to the oil return passage so that the oil is readily warmed up during a cold start by the contact with a surface in the cylinder head proximate exhaust ducts. The provision of such a surface proximate exhaust ducts is facilitated by the integrated exhaust manifold design in which the exhaust ducts are merged prior to exiting the cylinder head. By rapidly heating the oil, the oil's viscosity decreases, thereby reducing friction and improving fuel efficiency. | 03-10-2011 |
| 20110079187 | HEATING ENGINE OIL IN AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - The disclosure relates to an internal combustion engine having a cylinder head and cylinder block serving as an upper crankcase portion for holding a crankshaft in multiple bearings. The engine has an oil pump for feeding engine oil to the cylinder head prior to supplying the multiple bearings in the cylinder block. | 04-07-2011 |
| 20110197832 | COOLANT JACKETS FOR AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE AND METHOD OF CONTROL - An internal combustion engine is provided. The internal combustion engine includes a cylinder block having a cooling jacket and a cylinder head having two cooling jackets. In one example, the internal combustion engine may be operated so as to reduce engine friction and emissions during cold engine starts. | 08-18-2011 |

| 20110253092 | OIL DRAIN SYSTEM BYPASS - A system and method are provided for increasing heating of engine oil during a cold start. In one example, engine oil is returned directly to the oil pump inlet, thus bypassing the sump. In this way, a smaller volume of oil receives more heat and is used for lubricating engine components during a cold start, thus providing reduced friction earlier than otherwise possible. | 10-20-2011 |

| 20100199941 | INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH DRY SUMP LUBRICATION - An internal combustion engine with a dry sump lubrication system is disclosed. The dry sump lubrication system has an oil pan coupled to the engine, an oil reservoir, an oil discharge tube coupling between the oil pan to the oil reservoir, an oil supply tube coupling the oil reservoir to the engine, and a vent tube coupling the oil reservoir to the intake manifold. The dry sump lubrication system may have a fresh air tube coupled to the oil reservoir. A control element coupled to an upstream side of the fresh air tube controls fresh air supplied to the oil reservoir. The oil reservoir may be insulated to retain energy in the oil during short shutdown periods. The oil reservoir may have a heat exchanger which allows engine coolant to flow through the heat exchanger. | 08-12-2010 |

| 20110094477 | FUEL DISTRIBUTOR - A fuel distributor for supplying fuel to injection valves for internal combustion engines includes a hollow manifold having a plurality of branch bores disposed radially therethrough. A plurality of branch lines are operably connected with a manifold at the branch bores by adapters. The adapters have either a one-piece deep-drawn construction or a one-piece extruded construction, and include a mounting flange that conforms to the outer contour of the manifold and joins the adapter to the exterior of the manifold, and a neck portion that closely receives and securely mounts therein the end portions of the branch lines. | 04-28-2011 |

| 20100171594 | RFID READER DISCIPLINE - A method for coordinating reader transmissions according to one embodiment includes, at a first reader, receiving from a second reader a request to transmit to a radio frequency identification tag; and if the first reader is transmitting, sending a denial of the request from the first reader to the second reader. A method for coordinating reader transmissions according to another embodiment includes from a first reader, sending to a plurality of readers a request to transmit to a radio frequency identification tag; waiting for responses from the plurality of readers; if a denial of the request is received by the first reader from any of the readers, not transmitting to the radio frequency identification tag; and if no denial of the request is received by the first reader from any of the readers, transmitting to the radio frequency identification tag. Additional systems, methods and computer program products are presented. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20100171598 | RFID DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR SETTING A LEVEL ON AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A system in one embodiment includes an electronic device; and a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) device in direct electrical communication with the electronic device for selectively setting a voltage or current on the electronic device to one of at least three different levels. A Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) device in another embodiment includes an antenna; a processor in communication with the antenna; and an interface in communication with the processor, the interface being adapted for direct electrical communication with an electronic device for selectively setting a voltage or current on the electronic device to one of at least three different levels. Additional systems and methods are also presented. | 07-08-2010 |
