Abstract: An air bag deployment system (10) generates the proper
current to activate a squib (74) and deploy an air bag. A separate
capacitor (48) powers circuitry in a drive limit controller (54)
for providing a variable voltage drive to a MOS device (68) to
regulate squib (74) firing current. A switch circuit (38) supplies
gate current to a transistor (46) such that an electrical
connecting path allows a capacitor (22) to charge a capacitor
(48). During squib (74) firing and air bag deployment, the switch
circuit (38) provides electrical isolation between the decaying
voltage stored on the capacitor (22) that powers the squib (74)
current and the capacitor (48) that provides current regulation to
the squib (74) from the drive limit controller (54).

Abstract: An automotive ignition control system includes a vehicle
control computer operable to provide electronic spark timing (EST) signals, a
control circuit having a number of coil drive circuits connected thereto, a
corresponding number of coil driver devices connected to respective ones of
the coil drive circuits and a corresponding number of ignition coils connected
to respective ones of the coil driver devices. The control circuit is responsive
to an active state of any one of the EST signals to activate a corresponding
one of the coil driver devices while inhibiting activation of all others. If any
EST signal remains in an active state for an excessive time period, the control
circuit is operable to lock-out the corresponding coil driver device from
operation until such a fault condition is cleared. The control circuit is
preferably operable to accomplish the lock-out function by gradually
decreasing the coil current associated with the faulty EST signal in a fashion
that does not generate a spark event.

Abstract: An electromechanically actuated valve (12) for use as an intake or exhaust valve in an internal combustion engine. The valve (12) is actuated by a electromechanical actuator assembly (18) which includes a first electromagnet (22), second electromagnet (30) and third electromagnet (32). A first disk (38) is mounted to the valve (12) in a gap between the second and third electromagnets, and a second disk (44) is slidably mounted to the valve (12) between an insert (17) and the first electromagnet (22). An extension (42) on the second electromagnet (30) extends to the second disk (44), allowing the second disk (44) to move the second electromagnet (30) relative to the third electromagnet (32), thereby changing the gap and thus the valve lift. A first spring (48), mounted between the second electromagnet (30) and first disk (38), and a second spring (50), mounted between the first disk (38) and an actuator housing (20), create an oscillatory system which drives most of the valve movement during engine operation, thus reducing power requirements to actuate the valves while increasing the responsiveness of the valves.

garnish (40), which opening permits expansion of the air bag (16), and
through which the air bag (16) expands into a room. The air bag (16) is

Abstract: Dans le domaine des débitmètres massiques de Coriolis, la définition du zéro vrai du débitmètre a toujours posé un problème en raison des effets sur l'écart du zéro qu'entraînent des changements de conditions limites et des paramètres de fluide. La présente invention porte sur des appareils et des procédés visant à déterminer la composante du signal du débitmètre se rapportant au débit massique vrai indépendamment des erreurs dues aux changements des conditions limites et aux paramètres de fluide. En conséquence, un appareil de mesure du débit massique de l'écoulement d'un fluide par rapport à un conduit d'écoulement comprend les éléments suivants: (1) un amplificateur de force servant à faire vibrer le conduit d'écoulement, (2) un détecteur servant à mesurer le mouvement du conduit d'écoulement dû à la vibration et à émettre un signal de mouvement détecté indiquant ce mouvement, le mouvement qui en résulte contenant une composante en mode de Coriolis et une composante en mode de condition limite, (3) des circuits de traitement des signaux, couplés au détecteur pour qu'ils puissent recevoir de celui-ci le signal de mouvement détecté, ce qui permet de déterminer l'amplitude de la composante en mode de Coriolis du mouvement ainsi obtenu et (4) des circuits de sortie servant à produire un signal de sortie proportionnel au débit massique, le signal de sortie n'étant pour ainsi dire pas influencé par la composante en mode de condition limite du signal de mouvement détecté.
