Patent EP-1227269-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KENNEDY LAWRENCE CHARLES
IPC: F16J1/16
Filed: 2002-01-25
Abstract: In a piston engine, end play of the piston pin can be prevented without unduly shortening
the pin. In the simplest design (fig. 4), a full length piston pin (22) can have spherical end surface (72) in
close clearance spacing relative to the combustion chamber surface, so that any tendency of the
pin (22) to shift along the pin axis (16) is immediately resisted by contact between a spherical end surface (72)
and the combustion chamber surface. The area of each spherical surface (72) is sufficient to prevent
wear or scratching of the combustion chamber surface. 
     An altemative full length piston pin (22) design incorporates spherical sheet-metal caps (48)
snapped in place at the ends (fig. 2), which fix the pin (and caps) from coming into contact with
the cylinder bore wall.

Abstract: A number of voltage-controlled resistance cells, each formed by a transistor with a biasing capacitor connected between the gate and source and an associated controller coupled to the capacitor to maintain a steady charge on the biasing capacitor and keep the gate-source voltage at a control voltage corresponding to a desired resistance, are employed to form a voltage-controlled resistance structure. The gate voltage applied to each transistor is able to "float" together with the source voltage in order to keep the gate-source voltage constant, and the resistance structure exhibits improved voltage-dependent resistance linearity together with a larger range of biasing while lowering needed refresh frequencies to avoid noise injection. <IMAGE>

microcomputer (11) from "high" to "low" and keeps the latch output signal "low". A

(13) switches the latch output signal from "low" to "high". If the latch output signal is "high"
