Abstract: A device including a flexible circuit disposed within a conductive tube. The circuit may include a flexible substrate and one or more circuit elements. The circuit may have circuit elements on one or both sides, and the substrate may be multi-layered. The tube may have any one of many cross-sectional shapes, including circular, oval, square, and rectangular.

Abstract: A valve actuation device. The device may include a free floating valve bridge movably supported within a cavity in the engine housing. The bridge may be provided with a cavity and an orifice arrangement for pumping gases entrained with lubricating fluid toward the piston stems as the bridge reciprocates back and forth. The device may also include a rocker arm that has a U-shaped cross-sectional shape for receiving at least a portion of the valve bridge, valve stem valve spring and spring retainer therein. The rocker arm may be provided with lubrication passages for directing lubrication to the point wherein it is pivotally affixed to the engine housing.
