"It is my heart-warmed and world-embracing Christmas hope and aspiration that all of us, the high, the low, the rich, the poor, the admired, the despised, the loved, the hated, the civilized, the savage (every man and brother of us all throughout the whole earth), may eventually be gathered together in a heaven of everlasting rest and peace and bliss, except the inventor of the telephone. "
Mark Twain ; Christmas greetings, 1890

| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 4541367 | Combustion and pollution control system A controlled amount of a fluid (steam or water or a solution of water plus additives) is injected into an internal combustion engine to improve combustion, efficiency, and to reduce emissions. The amount of the fluid injected is controlled in response to ... | 09/17/1985 |
| 4516553 | Combustion and pollution control system An inverter apparatus for producing an increasing vacuum effect in response to a decreasing vacuum field. A piston is axially movable within a cylindrical bore. The piston has a first surface exposed to atmospheric pressure. A spring biases the piston in ... | 05/14/1985 |
| 4476817 | Combustion and pollution control system A controlled amount of a fluid (steam or water or a solution of water plus additives) is injected into an internal combustion engine to improve combustion, efficiency, and to reduce emissions. The amount of the fluid injected is controlled in response to ... | 10/16/1984 |
| 4465095 | Pressure-operated flow control valve and molding method A pressure-actuated flow control valve. A valve housing has an inlet and an outlet with first and second spaced-apart seats between them and a permanent magnet on the inlet side of the first seat, which is closed to the inlet. A ferromagnetic ball in betw... | 08/14/1984 |
| 4414932 | Method and apparatus for heat storage in internal combustion engines Exhaust emissions are reduced, fuel consumption is improved for internal-combustion engines, and the number of cold starts reduced by storing heat energy from the operation of the engine in a heat-storage reservoir filled with a change-of-state heat-stora... | 11/15/1983 |
| 4409931 | Combustion and pollution control system A controlled amount of a fluid (steam or water or a solution of water plus additives) is injected into an internal combustion engine to improve combustion, efficiency, and to reduce emissions. The amount of the fluid injected is controlled in response to ... | 10/18/1983 |
| 4393817 | Combustion and pollution control system A controlled amount of a fluid (steam or water or a solution of water plus additives) is injected into an internal combustion engine to improve combustion, efficiency, and to reduce emissions. The amount of the fluid injected is controlled in response to ... | 07/19/1983 |
| 4172437 | PCV flow regulator A fluid flow regulator controls the amount of fluid flow or pressure of the fluid flowing through the regulator by producing an impedance to flow through the regulator which varies in relationship to the pressure differential across the regulator and whic... | 10/30/1979 |
| 4140090 | Precombustion chamber, stratified charge internal combustion engine system using a highly combustible gas in the precombustion chamber A gaseous fuel is used in a precombustion chamber for igniting lean fuel-oxidant mixtures in a main combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. The precombustion chamber preferably utilizes a highly combustible gaseous fuel which burns clean with... | 02/20/1979 |
| 4132247 | Fluid mixing apparatus A fluid mixing apparatus introduces a controlled amount of gas into a liquid flowing through a conduit. The fluid mixing apparatus incorporates a flow control device which is constructed to produce a variable impedance to fluid flow through the control de... | 01/02/1979 |
| 4131134 | Fluid flow regulator A fluid flow regulator controls the amount of fluid flow or pressure of the fluid flowing through the regulator by producing an impedance to flow through the regulator which varies in relationship to the pressure differential across the regulator and whic... | 12/26/1978 |
| 4112892 | Combustion control system for adding fluid above the butterfly valve A combustion control system adds fluid to the air fuel mixture of the induction system of an internal combustion engine in response to the engine's need for the added fluid to improve combustion, to increase power, to improve efficiency, and to reduce emi... | 09/12/1978 |
