    Abstract: An innovative image acquisition device is disclosed, providing an effective solution for maximizing information density, while reducing color artifacts. The device of the invention relies on selective wavelength absorption, in certain substances. The novel solution utilizes two photosite arrays, or sensors, separated by an absorption layer, of predetermined thickness. Thus, an incident light beam strikes the two sensors in different proportions, exposing one array to the unaltered incident light, while the light striking the other array is partially absorbed. Light intensity ratio, between corresponding photosites on the two sensors uniquely identifies the incident light wavelength, and subsequently its color.

    Abstract: A novel device for controlling the compression pressure of an internal combustion engine is disclosed.The combustion chamber of each cylinder of the engine is divided into two virtual spaces, a gas exchange space and a control space. The intake and exhaust valves move in a plane substantially perpendicular to the cylinder centerline and open into the gas exchange space.The position of a preferably toroidal volume control slider determines the control space volume and subsequently, the geometrical compression ratio of the engine. At least one actuation cam bidirectionally drives said control slider, by means of a slot and captive roller arrangement.The device further comprises actuator means to rotate the cam to a predetermined angular position, as a function of engine load.Thus, the device of the invention is capable of maintaining a constant compression pressure, under varying load, by altering the geometrical compression ratio of the engine.

    Abstract: An injection and ignition device is disclosed, for preparing, injecting and igniting a stratified air-fuel charge inside the cylinder of an internal combustion engine. The device comprises and injection valve, ignition means and a combustion shell surrounding the injection valve and ignition means. The combustion shell has a plurality of flame nozzles cut through its walls. The injection valve divides the total amount of fuel injected per cycle into a main dose and a pilot dose. The main dose is injected into the combustion chamber, forming a lean mixture therein. The smaller pilot dose is injected inside the combustion shell, forming a rich moisture therein. The ignition means easily ignite this rich mixture. As the fuel burs inside the combustion shell, the pressure therein will rise and the combustion flames will be ejected through the flame nozzles into the combustion chamber. Thus torch ignition of the lean mixture field occurs.

    Abstract: A dual-fuel system, comprising an electrically triggerable injector, for alternatively or simultaneously supplying two distinct fuels to an internal combustion engine. The injector is connected to two separate fuel circuits. Each circuit comprises a fuel storage tank and a fuel rail. External valves control fuel access from the fuel storage tanks to the fuel rails. By appropriately activating the valves, one or both of the two fuels are fed to the injector. Inside the injector are two separate fuel paths, fluidically isolated from each other. Each internal fuel path communicates with one of the external fuel circuits. The injector contains a flow control valve for each separate fuel path and one electromagnet. In the non-activated position, both valves are resiliently urged against a common seat. When the electromagnet is energized, it simultaneously drives the two valves to open off the seat, thereby permitting one or two fuels to pass therethrough.

    Abstract: A novel flow control device for metering a preferably gaseous fuel to an internal combustion engine is disclosed.The innovative flow control device maintains a predetermined air-fuel ratio, while automatically compensating for variations in the energy content of the fuel.A rotary-flap airflow meter directly drives a preferably butterfly-type main valve, the latter metering a main fuel dose, calibrated to provide an air-fuel ratio slightly leaner than desired, over the entire engine operating domain.A rotary, or linear, trim valve meters a trim fuel dose, used to additively adjust the mixture to the desired quality.A drive member, rigidly joined to the rotary air flap, drives said trim valve, through a variable-ratio lever mechanism. The lever fulcrum is linearly moveable, independently of cam position, thereby altering the lever ratio and subsequently, the corrective fuel dose, over a substantially wide flow range.
