Title: A Rotating Barrel Carburettor
Inventor: LAWES KEITH
IPC: F02M17/16
Filed: 2013-05-20
Abstract: Disclosed is a carburettor incorporating an air passage 5, and a fuel passage 3. A rotating barrel 4 is arranged between the air passage 5 and the fuel passage 3 so that a first portion of its surface is exposed to the air passage 5, and a second portion of its surface is exposed to the fuel passage 3. The rotation of the barrel 4 transfers fuel from fuel passage 3 to the air passage 5 via an indent feature 6, the proportion of that indent feature 6 that is exposed to the air or fuel passage being varied to meter the amount of fuel transferred. A moving means is provided causing the fuel to flow over the indent so that air brought back into the fuel passage in the indent is stripped from the indent feature and the resulting air bubbles are then carried away by the fuel flow.

Title: Calculating the risk of a collision
Inventor: MIELENZ HOLGER
IPC: G08G1/16
Filed: 2013-08-22
Abstract: A collision avoidance process calculates the risk, or probability, of a crash between other road users and a parked vehicle and communicates the likelihood of impact to the driver or user of the parked vehicle. A degree of difficulty for other vehicles to pass the parked vehicle may be obtained and this may form part of the risk assessment of collision. Other factors that may influence the risk calculation may be road layout, speed limit, weather conditions, expected parking time and/or accident databases. The risk may be communicated to the user via a voice or visual message. A claim is included for computer programme that carries out the process and a parking sensor which further incorporates the collision avoidance process.
