  • HIGH PRESSURE INFLATION DEVICE
    Publication number: 20240115839
    Abstract: Devices used to pressurize, depressurize, or otherwise displace fluid are disclosed. The devices may be configured to displace fluid in order to inflate or deflate a medical device, such as a balloon. The devices further include features and mechanisms for limiting pressure generation so as to avoid damage due to overpressurization.

  • Approach for adaptive control of cam profile switching for combustion mode transitions
    Patent number: 7946263
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for controlling cylinder valve switching between a first valve condition and a second valve condition for transitioning between combustion modes of an engine. The method includes adjusting timing of a signal to switch between the valve conditions based on an oil degradation condition from an oil sensor, wherein the combustion modes include spark ignition and homogenous charge compression ignition.
