    Abstract: An improved ignitor and ignition method for igniting a wide variety of fuels that may be used to power various types of engines, or for use with other applications requiring the efficient combustion of fuel. The fuel to be burned is mixed with air to form a relatively lean first fuel/air mixture. This first fuel/air mixture is then injected into the primary combustion chamber, such as the combustion zone of a cylinder of an internal combustion engine, or similar combustion chamber of other types of fuel-burning apparatus. The first fuel/air mixture is ignited with a stream of hot ionized gas that is jetted into the primary combustion chamber from a precombustion or plasma-generating chamber. The plasma-generating chamber is in close proximity to the primary combustion chamber, with a plasma guide or discharge tunnel connecting the two. A fuel line connects a source of pressurized fuel to the plasma-generating chamber. Interposed in this fuel line are a backflow restrictor and a fuel vaporizor, thereby ensuring that only vaporized fuel passes into (and not out of) the plasma-generating chamber through the fuel line.

    Abstract: The invention is a new linkage for connecting the piston and the piston actuator in a high pressure pump. All of the compression forces transmitted from the piston actuator to the piston by this linkage will be axial forces parallel to the axis of the piston since the linkage will not transmit forces to the piston which are transverse to its axis. This linkage allows the use of hard brittle materials such as ceramic materials in the piston because any misalignment between the axises of the piston actuator and the piston will not result in bending forces being applied to the piston which would cause it to break.

    Abstract translation: 本发明是用于在高压泵中连接活塞和活塞致动器的新连接件。 通过该连杆从活塞致动器传递到活塞的所有压缩力将是平行于活塞的轴线的轴向力,因为连杆不会将力传递到横向于其轴线的活塞。 该连接允许在活塞中使用诸如陶瓷材料的硬脆性材料,因为活塞致动器的轴线和活塞之间的任何未对准不会导致施加到活塞上的弯曲力,这将导致其破裂。

    Abstract: Disclosed is an internal combustion engine comprising a main combustion chamber and an auxiliary combustion chamber which are interconnected to each other via a connecting passage. The opening of the connecting passage is arranged to be directed to the central portion of the piston when the piston reaches the top dead center. The combustible mixture in the auxiliary combustion chamber is ignited. As a result, a burning jet is injected into the main combustion chamber. An additional auxiliary combustion chamber having no spark plug therein is formed in the piston. The additional auxiliary combustion chamber opens onto the central portion of the top face of the piston. The combustible mixture in the additional auxiliary combustion chamber is ignited into an explosion by the burning jet injected from the connecting passage.

    Abstract: Although modern diesel fuel formulations are intended to reduce emissions of diesel engines, at least some of those modern fuels tend to have relatively low lubricity levels. The control valve assemblies described herein help to minimize any increased wear that would otherwise result from the use of such low lubricity fuels by providing a valve element, a valve guide, and an insert. The valve element is received within the valve guide and is moveable between an open position and a closed position. The insert forms a first sealed interface and a second sealed interface with the valve element and the valve guide. When the valve element is in the closed position, both of the first sealed interface and the second sealed interface are engaged. When the valve element is in the open position, only one of the first sealed interface and the second sealed interface is engaged.
