Carl Rudolph Morganti - Farmington Hills MI
James J. Klocinski - Saline MI
Ning Liu - Novi MI
Assignee:
Visteon Global Technologies, Inc. - Dearborn MI
International Classification:
F01N 310
US Classification:
60300, 60274, 60286, 60303

US Patent:
6445982, Sep 3, 2002
Filed:
Mar 26, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/817870
Inventors:
Shawn H. Swales - Canton MI
Gurinder S. Kahlon - Canton MI
James J. Klocinski - Saline MI
Assignee:
Visteon Global Technologies, Inc. - Dearborn MI
International Classification:
H01M 800
US Classification:
701 22, 307 91, 307 106, 318139, 318383, 318376, 320104
Abstract:
A control system is provided for the drive system of automotive vehicles. A control determines a combination of torque to be applied from an integrated starter-generator and compression torque to be applied from an engine. The combination of the integrated starter-generator torque and engine compression torque results in a desired deceleration torque. The control preferentially applies torque from the integrated starter-generator over the compression torque, thus maximizing regeneration.

Adam P. Shepperson - London, GB
James J. Klocinski - Saline MI
Robert C. Borregard - Wyandotte MI
Assignee:
Visteon Global Technologies, Inc. - Dearborn MI
International Classification:
H02J 700
US Classification:
320104
Abstract:
An apparatus for providing electrical power for a hybrid vehicle includes an integrated starter-generator and an inverter connected to an electrical energy storage device such as a capacitor and a battery by first and second switches respectively. A control turns the switches on and off in accordance with selected modes of operation to provide power from the capacitor to the integrated starter-generator and the battery and to provide power from the integrated starter-generator to the capacitor and the battery.

US Patent:
6752741, Jun 22, 2004
Filed:
May 31, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/159785
Inventors:
Gurinder Singh Kahlon - Canton MI
James J. Klocinski - Saline MI
Ning Liu - Novi MI
Shawn Harold Swales - Canton MI
Assignee:
Visteon Global Technologies, Inc. - Dearborn MI
International Classification:
B60K 4102
US Classification:
477 5, 477 4
Abstract:
There is provided a method for automatic operation of a vehicle comprising an engine, a starter motor, an engine clutch, and a plurality of vehicle systems. After detecting that the engine is running, the vehicle systems are checked to ensure an acceptable status for shutting down the engine. A negative torque is applied to the engine to shut it down. Vehicle systems are monitored until they indicate that the engine should be restarted. The engine is restarted, and a successful start of the engine is then confirmed. Similarly, there is provided a method for the cold start of a vehicle as above. The starter motor is powered up with an initial torque and vehicle systems are monitored to determine whether the engine should be started. The engine is started from the torque of the starter motor, and a successful start of the engine is then confirmed.

Using A Circuit Board For Ignition Coil Internal Connections

View page
US Patent:
6882259, Apr 19, 2005
Filed:
May 5, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/839986
Inventors:
James J. Klocinski - Saline MI, US
Michael T. Nation - Ypsilanti MI, US
William D. Walker - Saline MI, US
Robert C. Bauman - Brighton MI, US
Rick S. Burchett - Ypsilanti MI, US
Assignee:
Visteon Global Technologies, Inc. - Van Buren Township MI
International Classification:
H01F027/02
US Classification:
336 90, 336 92, 336 96, 123634
Abstract:
A circuit board for an ignition coil in an internal combustion engine is provided. The ignition coil is in electrical connection with a control module and a spark plug having a pair of gap posts. The ignition coil includes a primary winding having an electrical current, a secondary winding in electrical connection with the spark plug and configured to induce a second electrical current between the gap posts, and an ionization current sensing integrated circuit configured to generate an ionization signal based on the secondary current between the gap posts. The ignition coil also includes a circuit board having an ionization connection in electrical connection with the secondary winding and with the ionization current sensing integrated circuit.

US Patent:
7209023, Apr 24, 2007
Filed:
Mar 24, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/807663
Inventors:
James John Klocinski - Saline MI, US
Robert Charles Bauman - Brighton MI, US
Rick S. Burchett - Ypsilanti MI, US
William Douglas Walker - Saline MI, US
Assignee:
Ford Motor Company - Dearborn MI
International Classification:
H01F 27/02
US Classification:
336 90
Abstract:
An ignition coil for an internal combustion engine minimizes the propagation of cracks in the encapsulate material surrounding the components of the ignition coil and provides a supplemental dielectric barrier. In one embodiment, the ignition coil comprises a housing, an outer core, an inner coil, and a coil assembly. The housing includes a bottom wall connected to an outer wall extending around the periphery of the housing. The outer core is positioned inside the outer wall, while the inner core is positioned inside the outer core. The coil assembly includes a primary winding and a secondary winding concentrically positioned relative to each other. The coil assembly is mounted to the inner core and positioned inside the outer core. The housing further includes an inner wall extending along the inner periphery of the outer core and positioned between the outer core and the coil assembly to prevent propagation of cracks.

US Patent:
20050212645, Sep 29, 2005
Filed:
Mar 26, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/811416
Inventors:
James Klocinski - Saline MI, US
Robert Bauman - Brighton MI, US
International Classification:
H01F027/24
US Classification:
336234000
Abstract:
A core assembly for an ignition coil in an internal combustion engine generally includes an inner core comprising an I-shaped lamination and an outer core comprising a pair of opposing C-shaped lamination stacks. A joint is formed by an end of the I-shaped lamination stack and a pair of adjacent ends of the pair of C-shaped lamination stacks. The core assembly is designed in a manner which minimizes the waste material that is scrapped when forming the lamination stacks, as well as allows the inner lamination stack to be slid down along the inner periphery of the outer stack.
