  • Patent number: 12152511
    Abstract: A valve mechanism system in a hydraulic rocker arm for a combustion engine includes a check valve spring, a check valve ball and a control piston. The spring contacting the ball are arranged in a seat in a recess in the arm. The recess has a first opening to a rocker arm channel connected to a hydraulic element and a second opening to a rocker arm oil supply via a second channel. The piston has a first end with a pin axially aligned with the piston arranged in contact with the ball on the opposite side of the ball from the spring. The ball is movable between a first position allowing oil to flow to and from the oil supply and a second position stopping oil from flowing between the two channels. A control piston spring is arranged on a second end of the piston such that it biases the piston towards the ball.

  • Patent number: 9092518
    Abstract: A system and method are described for recognizing repeated audio material within at least one media stream without prior knowledge of the nature of the repeated material. The system and method are able to create a screening database from the media stream or streams. An unknown sample audio fragment is taken from the media stream and compared against the screening database to find if there are matching fragments within the media streams by determining if the unknown sample matches any samples in the screening database.
