Abstract: The present invention is directed to a dual fuel system and a dual fuel system assembly where liquid LPG and diesel are mixed and then distributed via the common rail to the combustion chambers. The liquid fuel mixture remains in a liquid state and under pressure for introduction to the combustion chambers. With the preferred embodiment of the dual fuel system, only minor changes are required to the diesel engine without altering the manufactures specifications and voiding the manufacturer's warranties. The resultant combustion of the liquid fuel mixture provides a cleaner emission and relatively cheaper vehicle operational costs.

Abstract: The four-way valve (10) enables a liquid to be distributed and controlled to the user appliance, and comprises a delivery branch (RM) for the liquid originating from the plant delivery column, and a return branch (RR) for conveying the liquid originating from the user appliance to the return column. The delivery branch (RM) comprises: an inlet port (17) and an outlet port (18); a by-pass chamber (19) open to the outside to enable the housing of a by-pass actuator (23) arranged to cooperate with a relative seat (24) which bounds a by-pass port to connect the delivery branch (RM) to the return branch (RR). This latter comprises: an inlet port (29) and an outlet port (30); an interception chamber (38) and a shutoff valving element (40) maintained abutting against a relative seat (39) by a spring (46), the shutoff valving element (40) being operable by an external actuator (47) to bring it into its open position; means (33, 35) for regulating the flow rate of the liquid in the return branch (RR). 
The by-pass chamber (19) communicates directly with the inlet port (17) of the delivery branch (RM). The by-pass valving element (23) is prevented from abutting against the relative seat (24) to allow a predetermined minimum flow rate of liquid to pass. The shutoff valving element (40) also presents an additional valving element (45) intended to cooperate with the by-pass port (27) to prevent the passage of liquid through this port (27). Said means for regulating the flow rate through the return branch (RR) comprise: a pre-regulation chamber (58), which also acts as the interception chamber (38), communicating with the inlet port (29) of the return branch (RR) and with the relative outlet port (30) through a port (49) bounded by the shutoff seat (39); and means (35, 36) for positioning a pre-regulation ring nut (33) more or less close to the shutoff port (49).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel photo-detector structure and method whereby light is detected in a semiconductor substrate. Through the use of a small current of majority carriers an electrical field is created that directs photo-generated minority carriers towards a detection region. In this way, a large sensitive area 34 for a detector can be designed with a detection region having low junction area and low associated detector capacitance, thus enhancing output signal to noise ratio and/or speed of attached readout circuits. Simultaneously, the assistant majority current can sweep the minority carriers from deep within the substrate towards the detection region, thus improving the overall detector sensitivity. By making the majority current reconfigurable, a photonic mixer structure with two or more detection regions can be conceived, whereby the direction of the applied current will determine in an efficient way to which detection region the photo-generated minority carriers will be directed. In this way, incident modulated light can get demodulated, such that phase and amplitude of the modulated light can be measured for a.o. range finding applications.
