20090223480 | Internal Combustion Engine - An engine having a rotor including at least one slot and at least one combustion chamber used to form a cavity is provided. The engine also includes at least one vane rollably disposed in the slot, and a block for receiving the rotor, and having a first quadrant including an inlet port, a second quadrant, a third quadrant, and a fourth quadrant having an outlet port. The vane moves through the first quadrant, drawing air into the block and the cavity. The vane then moves through the second quadrant, compressing the air. The vane then moves through the third quadrant, combusting the air, and forcing the rotor to rotate. The vane then moves through the fourth quadrant, forcing the air out of the outlet port. | 09-10-2009 |

20120031368 | ROTARY MACHINE WITH ROLLER CONTROLLED VANES - A rotary machine is provided, having a stator forming a chamber for a rotor, the stator having two sidewalls defining opposite sides of the chamber and a substantially continuous, circumferentially extending inner wall, and at least one inlet and outlet. A rotor and stator define two cavities at opposite ends of the chamber. The rotor has at least two radially extending slots and at least two radially movable vanes having first and second primary rollers and first and second secondary rollers mounted on a radially inward section of the vane. Two roller cam devices are each provided on a respective one of the stator side walls and are positioned centrally adjacent opposite sides of the rotor. In use, outer tips of the vanes slidingly engage the inner wall of the stator. The primary rollers limit outward vane movement due to centrifugal forces. Secondary rollers limit and control inward vanes movement. | 02-09-2012 |

20090123398 | SILICON-FREE HYDROCARBONS PROVIDING AESTHETIC VOLATILITY - Non-silicone-based compositions including hydrocarbons of widely different structures and origins are combined into single, stable, homogenous products with both aesthetic and volatility properties similar to a cyclopentasiloxane. The combinations are useful to cosmetic formulators as full or partial replacement products for cyclopentasiloxanes, or “volatile silicones.” | 05-14-2009 |
20100143426 | COSMETIC DISPERSIONS UTILIZING A SILICONE-FREE HYDROCARBON COMPLEX - Silicone-free compositions including hydrocarbons of widely different structures and origins combined with coated particles are provided which have both aesthetic and volatility properties similar to cyclopentasiloxane dispersions. The compositions are useful as full or partial replacement products for dispersions of cyclopentasiloxane, or “volatile silicones.” The compositions are useful in UV-attenuating formulations including skin care products, color cosmetics, pharmaceutical products and especially sun care products such as sunblocks, sunscreens, tanning lotions, and the like. | 06-10-2010 |

20110146433 | SYNCHRONIZER RE-ENERGIZATION FOR IMPROVED COLD SHIFT COMFORT - A synchronizer mechanism for synchronizing the rotation of gears between a power input shaft and a power output shaft in a manual transmission includes a hub and a synchronizer sleeve disposed about the hub and moveable relative thereto into and out of engagement with adjacent gears to synchronize the rotation of the adjacent gears with the rotation of the power input shaft. An indexing mechanism is employed for indexing the synchronizer sleeve into and out of engagement with adjacent gears. The indexing mechanism includes a retaining mechanism and a detent portion having a main synchronization detent and at least one second synchronization detent disposed laterally adjacent the main synchronization detent. The main synchronization detent causes an intermediate clutch ring to contact a cylindrical cone portion on a gear and begin the change in angular velocity of the gear and to begin the synchronization sequence of the mechanism at a first time. The second synchronization detent causes the intermediate clutch ring to contact a cylindrical cone portion on a gear and change the angular velocity of the gear and synchronizer mechanism at a second time reducing the minor speed difference between the gear and synchronizer sleeve caused by loss of synchronization between the time of sleeve and ring indexing and initial engagement contact of the sleeve to the clutch teeth of the gear. | 06-23-2011 |

20140373660 | MANUAL TRANSMISSION SHIFTER WITH GUIDE DEVICE FOR LASH REDUCTION - A system for lash reduction of a shifter for a manual transmission includes a shifter assembly having a housing, a shift lever and a shift lever guide device positioned in the housing. The guide device includes a plurality of shift channels connected by a select channel and defines a shift pattern for the shift lever. The transmission gate guide includes a corresponding plurality of shift finger slots connected by a select slot and defines a pattern for a shift finger of the transmission. Movement of the shift lever into one of the channels operatively moves the shift finger into a corresponding one of the slots. Each of the channels includes a channel width complimentary to a width of the shift lever so as to substantially reduce lateral free play of the shift lever when received in the channels while allowing longitudinal motion of the shift lever in the channels. | 12-25-2014 |
20140373661 | GEAR BLOCKOUT FOR A MANUAL TRANSMISSION - A shifter assembly for a manual transmission includes a shifter housing, a shift lever and a gear blockout. The shift lever includes a shift plane select member configured to move to a first and second gear shift plane and a gear engagement member configured to move along the first and second gear shift plane to a first gear position. The shift plane select member and the gear engagement member are each operatively coupled to the transmission. The gear blockout is positioned within the shifter housing and configured to be selectively actuated to (i) block movement of the shift plane select member to the shift plane position thereby preventing the manual transmission from being shifted into first and second gears, and (ii) block movement of the gear engagement member to the first gear position thereby preventing the manual transmission from being shifted into first gear. | 12-25-2014 |
