141 VEHICULAR THEFT PREVENTION SYSTEM AND METHOD. EP88904082 1988-04-19 EP0310654A4 1989-09-11 LERCHE NOLAN C
A system and method for preventing unauthorized starting of a motor vehicle. A timing interval of preselected duration (120) is generated only upon detecting positioning of an ignition switch (16) to a first position by means of a proper key inserted into the vehicle ignition switch. An electrical indication (122) is generated when the ignition switch is positioned to a second position which, in one embodiment, corresponds to a start position of an automobile ignition switch. A starting circuit interrupt element (40) remains in or is urged into a normally closed state to electrically complete the starting circuit only when the electrical indication appears during the time interval. The starting circuit may thereby only be energized for starting the motor during a normal preselected starting sequence comprised of key insertion followed by positioning of the switch from the first to the second state within the preselected time interval.

151 Misfire sensing apparatus for an internal combustion engine US949126 1992-09-23 US5213081A 1993-05-25 Takanori Fujimoto
A misfire sensing apparatus for an internal combustion engine can determine an occurrence of misfiring in any of engine cylinders as well as which cylinder is misfiring with improved accuracy and reliability. A crank angle sensor 11 generates an output signal at predetermined crank angles of the engine. A control unit 20 identifies operating states of the cylinders based on the output signal from the crank angle sensor. It successively senses misfire information in the form of the number of revolutions per minute of the engine at the predetermined crank angles, and determines possible misfiring in a cylinder when a difference between the current misfire information and the previous one is greater than a predetermined level. When there is possible misfiring in a cylinder, the control unit adjusts an engine operating parameter by a predetermined value, compares misfiring information as sensed before and after the adjustment, and determines an occurrence of true misfiring if a difference in the misfiring information before and after the adjustment is less than a predetermined reference value. In one form, the control unit decreases, upon occurrence of possible misfiring in a cylinder, an amount of fuel supplied to that cylinder so as to cause intentional misfiring therein. In another form, the control unit stops, upon occurrence of possible misfiring in a cylinder, firing of a spark plug for that cylinder.
152 Safety interlock for a device US791978 1991-11-13 US5188069A 1993-02-23 John A. Fiorenza, II
The safety interlock prevents the starting of a device if one or more safety switches is not first cycled through its operational cycle. Since the safety switches must be operated before starting, the device will not operate if the switches have been tampered with or have failed. The interlock includes a digital memory unit connected to the switch which stores information indicative of the cycling of the switch. The output of the memory unit is interconnected with the starting system of the device such that starting is prevented unless the stored information indicates that each switch has been cycled. In a preferrred embodiment the interlock includes a microprocessor.
153 Ignition system for combustion-powered tool US797355 1991-11-25 US5133329A 1992-07-28 William G. Rodseth; Ernest J. Wendling
For a combustion-powered tool, an ignition system is powered by a battery and is arranged so that a sudden discharge of a capacitor, as charged via an oscillator, produces a spark at a spark gap of a spark plug, so that the oscillator is enabled if a trigger switch is closed while a head switch is closed, but not if the trigger switch is closed while the head switch is opened, and if a battery voltage, as monitored, is not less than a reference voltage, and so that a silicon-controlled rectifier, which is arranged to produce a sudden discharge of the capacitor, is switched to a conductive state if the capacitor voltage, as monitored, and is not less than a reference voltage. The head and trigger switches, which are photoelectric, are polled intermittently to determine whether they are closed. Predominantly, solid-state components are used.

155 Engine vacuum-condition responsive safety system US385772 1989-07-26 US4944241A 1990-07-31 John A. Carter
A safety system associated with an engine of a marine vessel wherein the safety system includes a blower, a control unit, and a plurality of sensors. A vacuum sensor is coupled to the intake manifold of the engine of the vessel for the detection of pressure at the intake manifold. The vacuum sensor transmits a signal to the control unit, with the signal having a characteristic corresponding to the pressure at the intake manifold. Detection of a vacuum condition associated with engine idling or low cruise operation causes the control unit to activate the blower. The safety system includes interactive heat sensors and vapor sensors to monitor the atmosphere in an engine compartment. Detection of a volatile environment activates the blower and triggers both an audio and a visual warning.

Several embodiments of marine outboard drives including devices for protecting the unit in the event of tilting up more than a predetermined extent. The protection devices slow the engine when the outboard drive is tilted up more than the predetermined amount. This may be done by interrupting the spark, retarding the spark advance or closing a throttle. The invention is disclosed in combination with either an outboard motor having an underwater inlet for cooling the engine or an outboard drive portion of an inboard-outboard drive having a stabilizer for holding the outboard drive during a portion of its trim adjusted movement.
157 Apparatus for remote termination of the operation of a selected motor vehicle US840010 1986-03-17 US4660528A 1987-04-28 Gene Buck
The invention is directed to an RF means for terminating the normal operation of a selected motor vehicle. A plurality of motor vehicles each have an RF receiver tuned to a frequency and EIA tones specific to their license plate indica. Selected other motor vehicles have an RF transmitter and EIA tone generator which can be selectively tuned to transmit a signal which is receivable by a selected one of the motor vehicle receivers and when received stops the operation of that selected vehicle by terminating the fuel supply or removing ignition voltage to the motor vehicles internal combustion engine.
158 Ignition system with additional functions US596943 1984-04-05 US4553517A 1985-11-19 Bo C. Andreasson
A microcomputer is used in the invention for control of the ignition functions of an ignition system of an i.c. engine. A switch (17) in an operating handle or the like is connected via a transistor to a digital input of the computer. This reads the status of the switch once every revolution of the engine and as long as the switch is closed the ignition is delayed at an r.p.m. above a predetermined, programmed value (e.g. 3000 r.p.m.) and the r.p.m. of the engine is restricted. When the engine shall work the switch is opened and the ignition is normal. The restriction is used at start in order to avoid speeding during the start procedure. As a complement to said switch a parallel switch (27) can be connected and operated by a brake device of the engine. During braking the r.p.m. of the engine is thereby restricted to the same value as the r.p.m. during the start.
159 Fail safe ignition cut-off system US602124 1984-04-19 US4531500A 1985-07-30 Bob O. Burson
An electronic, breakerless ignition system with a grounded cut-off switch has a transformer coil and an electronic ignition circuit in a unitary housing fitted on the core. In an inductive embodiment of the system, a trigger coil is in circuit with the base of a Darlington transistor to control the operation of the transistor in response to flux generated voltage in the trigger coil. The primary winding of the transformer coil has one ground connection and the trigger coil is connected to an entirely separate ground terminal. Each of the terminals is fastened at one end to spaced points on the core. In a capacitor discharge ignition embodiment, one end of the primary winding is connected to a ground terminal and a coil for charging the capacitor is connected at one end to a separate ground terminal. Both terminals are separately connected at spaced points to the core and no internal circuit connections are provided between the grounded end of the primary coil and the grounded end of the trigger coil or the charging coil.
160 Marine propulsion unit having ignition interruption means to assist transmission shifting US288469 1981-07-30 US4403970A 1983-09-13 Robert G. Dretzka; James L. Holt; Guy D. Payne
Ignition pulses derived from an engine ignition coil primary are fed to the input of an ignition interruption circuit that employs an integrated circuit timer. The state of the output terminal of the timer is governed by an RC time constant circuit and by trigger signals supplied by a trigger circuit in response to occurrence of each ignition pulse. The timer output is coupled to the gate of an SCR which when it receives gate current as a result of the timer output being in a high state becomes conductive and bypasses ignition pulses to ground to thereby lower engine rpm to a preset minimum in which case gate current is removed and at least enough ignition pulses are allowed to be unbypassed for keeping the engine running above stalling speed. The timer, in effect, compares the interval between pulses with its time constant. When the intervals are longer than the time constant period the timer output remains low and provides no gate current, but when the opposite condition exists gate current is supplied until the intervals between ignition pulses equal or exceed the time constant period.
