  • Cylinder discrimination device and cylinder discrimination method of engine
    Patent number: 6483312
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine is equipped with a plurality of cam sensors that output cylinder discrimination signals during every uneven crank angle interval, and specific cylinders are discriminated based on said cylinder discrimination signals output from said plurality of cam sensors. Based on the discrimination result of said specific cylinder and said cylinder discrimination signals from cam sensors, the cylinders other than said specific cylinders are discriminated.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 22, 2001
    Date of Patent: November 19, 2002
    Assignees: Unisia Jecs Corporation, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.
    Inventors: Hirokazu Shimizu, Noriaki Shimizu
  • Method for isolation of extrachromosomal amplified genes
    Publication number: 20020102583
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for the isolation of extrachromosomal amplified nucleic acids that are associated with a cell proliferative disorder. Isolation and further identification of such genes is critical for diagnosis, prognosis, and course of therapy.
