  • Publication number: 20180017028
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a dual in-tank fuel pick-up system. The dual pick-up system includes a fuel delivery module (FDM) with a fuel pump and a jet pump. Fuel is made available to the FDM through one or more fuel pick-ups bringing in fuel from different locations of a fuel tank to a reservoir of the FDM from where the fuel is pumped by the fuel pump to a coupled engine system.

  • Patent number: 9384660
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a mirror dome and a light producing system for producing and transmitting light through the mirror dome to an external surface to produce a message viewable on the external surface. A sensing system identifies traffic and is in communication with the light producing system to cause the light producing system to produce and project a message viewable on the external surface when the sensing system detects approaching objects or traffic.

  • Patent number: 8905568
    Abstract: A partially transparent dome mirror is used to display messages generated from within the dome by a light generating system. The mirror is incorporated in an apparatus for seeing and warning traffic crossing at an intersection in a commercial, industrial or other space to improve worker safety and to avoid costly damage due to collisions at the intersection. The unitary apparatus does not require sensors or other wiring external to the mirror and its supporting frame. The mirror system can also be used in commercial and retail applications for surveillance and advertising.

  • Publication number: 20110260888
    Abstract: A partially transparent dome minor is used to display messages generated from within the dome by a light generating system. The minor is incorporated in an apparatus for seeing and warning traffic crossing at an intersection in a commercial, industrial or other space to improve worker safety and to avoid costly damage due to collisions at the intersection. The unitary apparatus does not require sensors or other wiring external to the mirror and its supporting frame. The mirror system can also be used in commercial and retail applications for surveillance and advertising.

  • Publication number: 20070268685
    Abstract: The invention is a warning or information system which has a flat curved mirror; flat mirror, half dome, full dome or any shape semi transparent mirror with a means to activate the warning or information mirror system,. The system has a signal transfer means, a warning or information light placed behind the mirror. Illumination from that warning or information light passes through the mirror to warn or provide information to the client. A detection means transfers information through a signal transfer means which activates the warning or information light behind the transparent mirror. A timing device deactivates said warning light after a preset time interval or the device is deactivated when the stimulus for the activation means exits the area. Optionally, an auditory alarm is activated by the signal transfer means to complement the visual display. The visual display may be a programmable scrolling message board with a message such as “Forklift Approaching.
