Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method distilling three-dimensional structure to a two-dimensional raster with multiple discrete planes for purposes of safe and accurate route planning including a map generator, pixel encoder, map transformer, and route generator. The map generator generates a raster map by populating a blank map canvas with raster and vector data on a per-pixel basis and obtains values for pixels from the pixel encoder. The pixel encoder encodes type, plane, and elevator information of features into pixels. The map transformer converts the map produced by the map generator into a weighted graph of nodes and edges suitable for route generation. The route generator generates routes using the graph produced by the map transformer.

Abstract: An engine is disclosed having a water cooling system allowing efficient cooling of the exhaust valves to prevent temperature gradients from building in the engine. Water is therefore pumped through the engine though first and second water cooling cores which discharge through the head. A water manifold is positioned over the discharge opening and includes couplings for the radiator supply, radiator return, water pump supply, oil cooler supply and oil cooler return. The engine has separate chambers to isolate the pistons and cylinders, and reed valves cover the chambers and allow the blow-by gases and oil to enter the oil pan during the power stroke of the engine cycle.

Abstract: An engine includes a filter housing with a base and a housing cover that contain a filter cartridge. The base defining a central recess, and having an annular sump extending downwardly from the central recess. An inwardly facing cylindrical sealing surface partially defining the annular sump, a drainage port defined in the cylindrical sealing surface and extending radially outward therefrom. The housing cover with a closed upper end and a downwardly extending annular wall sized to extend into the sump, the annular wall having a pair of seals that, when the housing cover is fully seated with the base provides a seal above the drainage port and a seal below the drainage port, the pair of seals precluding entry of oil into the drainage port when the housing cover is fully seated; whereby when the housing cover is raised upwardly, the lower seal is raised above the drainage port and oil in the filter housing drains out the drainage port.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a frame and a plurality of seats supported by the frame including at least one front seat and at least one rear seat. The at least one rear seat includes a seat back and a seat base, the seat back and the seat base being moveable between a lowered position and a raised position. The raised position is defined by the seat back and the seat base of the at least one rear seat being positioned at a first vertical height. The lowered position is defined by the seat back and the seat base of the at least one rear seat being positioned longitudinally rearward of the at last one front seat and at a second vertical height, the first vertical height being greater than the second vertical height.

Abstract: A vehicle is provided and includes a frame including a tunnel and a front portion, an endless track at least partially positioned within the tunnel, a ski supporting the front portion of the frame, a spindle coupled to the ski, and a front suspension coupled to the spindle. The ski defines a central plane extending vertically and longitudinally, the central plane defining an inboard lateral side and an outboard lateral side, the ski having a bottom surface and a keel extending therefrom on the outboard lateral side. The spindle is coupled to the ski at a first position on the outboard lateral side of the ski. The front suspension is coupled to the spindle at a second position outboard from the central plane of the ski.

Abstract: A system for communicating with components on a steering member has a first electrically conductive coil affixed to a stationary component around a steering shaft of the vehicle. A second electrically conductive coil is coupled to and rotating with the steering member. The second transceiver is wirelessly operatively coupled the first transceiver. The first transceiver coupled to the first electrically conductive coil. A second transceiver is coupled to the second electrically conductive coil. The first electrically conductive coil induces current in the second electrically conductive coil to power a first component of the components. The first electrically conductive coil is spaced apart from the second electrically conductive coil. The first transceiver and the second transceiver bi-directionally wirelessly communicate through the first electrically conductive coil and the second electrically conductive coil.
