  • Generating search results based on non-linguistic tokens
    Patent number: 10990630
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating search results based on non-linguistic tokens are disclosed. In embodiments, a computer-implemented method comprises: mapping, by a computing device, a non-linguistic token to documents during indexing based on associations in a token database between the non-linguistic token and variations of a multi-word term; receiving, by the computing device, the multi-word term in a search query; determining, by the computing device, the non-linguistic token associated with the multi-word term using the token database; and generating, by the computing device, search results based on the multi-word term and the non-linguistic token.

  • FUEL FILLER PIPE HAVING FORMED TRIGGER POINT
    Publication number: 20120160847
    Abstract: A fuel filler pipe includes a trigger point formed between the fuel supply port and the fuel tank. The trigger point is a trough-like depression which, if there is a structural disruption of the vehicle, will facilitate a buckling mode in the pipe and consequent energy absorption.

  • FUEL FILLER PIPE HAVING TRIGGER POINT
    Publication number: 20080119123
    Abstract: A fuel filler pipe having a trigger point formed between the fuel supply port and the fuel tank. The trigger point is a trough-like depression which, if there is a structural disruption of the vehicle, will facilitate a buckling mode in the pipe and consequent energy absorption. This configuration reduces or eliminates the amount of displacement of the fuel filler pipe into the fuel tank during such structural disruption of the vehicle.
