Multi-fuel engine system
Various methods and systems are provided for an intake manifold for an engine. In one example, an insert comprises an annular body having a top surface, bottom surface, inner surface, and outer surface. The insert further comprises a first groove for coupling an intake air port of an intake manifold to a cylinder head, a second groove for circulating gaseous fuel received from a gas runner of the intake manifold, and one or more openings to fluidically couple the second groove to an interior of the intake air port. The insert is configured to mix gaseous fuel and intake air at a coupling location between the intake manifold and the cylinder head.
Internal Combustion Engine Air Intake System
An improved internal combustion engine air intake system that operates in tandem with the original equipment air intake system and does not endanger the vehicle warranty and provides improved airflow to the engine which improves engine performance and efficiency. The improved internal combustion engine air intake system also provides one or more additional air inputs taken from a different location than the original equipment air intake which improves the likelihood of providing additional cooler, denser, air to the engine air intake which will improve engine efficiency.
AIR PRE-CLEANER SPIN TUBE
An air pre-cleaner spin tube includes a vaned inlet section including an inlet flange, and an outer tube inlet portion including an outer wall forming a nozzle that defines a radial direction, and a longitudinal axis. Also, a central stem is disposed in the nozzle, and a plurality of vanes extends from the central stem to the outer wall.
Separation chamber type anti-surge valve and commercial vehicle turbocharger system applying the same
A separation chamber type anti-surge valve may include a valve body formed with a charge air passage inlet and a charge air passage outlet, and a valve cover coupled to the valve body by a fastening member to define an empty inner space between the valve body and the valve cover, in which the inner space is divided into a diaphragm chamber and a bypass chamber by a valve guide, one side tip of a valve rod being fixed in the diaphragm chamber, a valve disc fixed to another side tip of the valve rod, and the diaphragm chamber is divided into a control pressure chamber and a normal static pressure chamber.
Tamper resistant hydrocarbon trap for combustion engines
An air intake system for a combustion engine includes an air intake duct in fluid communication with an engine intake manifold and a conduit component inserted into the air intake duct along a first assembly direction. The air intake system also includes a hydrocarbon (HC) trap secured to the conduit component within the air intake duct. The conduit component defines at least one retention feature to maintain a position of the HC trap such that removal of the HC trap from the air intake duct results in structural compromise of the at least one retention feature. The air intake duct is also configured to shield the at least one retention feature from user access to inhibit user removal of the HC trap.
Multi-lipped gasket for an air intake assembly
Systems and methods are disclosed for an air intake assembly comprising an airbox defining a plenum for enclosing an air filter, an intake tube attached to the air filter at a first end of the intake tube, the intake tube having a shoulder, and a multi-lipped gasket for detachably connecting the intake tube to the airbox, the multi-lipped gasket comprising a body portion defining a bore for sealingly engaging the intake tube, a lip adjacent the bore for engaging the shoulder of the intake tube, and a pair of distal lips for sealingly engaging the airbox, wherein the airbox, the air filter, and the intake tube are adapted so that air flows into the airbox, through the air filter, through the intake tube, and into a combustion engine (optionally reaching the combustion engine by first passing through a turbocharger and intercooler) of a vehicle.
High density mobile power unit and system
A high density mobile power unit may include an elongated unibody frame having a frame cavity, a front end, a rear end, an elongated roof panel, a front panel, a rear panel, an elongated floor assembly having an upper side and a lower side, an elongated first side panel, and an elongated second side panel. A frame cavity bounded by the roof panel, front panel, rear panel, the upper side of the floor assembly, first side panel, and second side panel. A plurality of wheel and tire assemblies may be coupled to the unibody frame and may support the unibody frame above a ground surface. A radiator may be coupled to the upper side of the floor assembly and positioned within the frame cavity at the front end. At least one generator may be positioned within the frame cavity at the rear end. An engine may be positioned within the frame cavity between the at least one generator and the radiator. An under carriage structural lattice arrangement may be coupled to the lower side of the floor assembly.
TURBO-BOOST CONTROLLED INTAKE SYSTEM
A turbo-boost controlled intake system is disclosed that provides a driver of a vehicle with greater control over vehicle performance. The turbo-boost controlled intake system includes a control module that is coupled with an aircharger air intake. The control module instructs an electronic control unit of the vehicle to increase manifold pressure to a higher level before releasing the pressure through a waste gate so as to provide a greater power output of the engine. The turbo-boost controlled intake system further includes a wiring harness and a signal adjuster. The wiring harness couples the control module with a turbo inlet pressure sensor, a manifold absolute pressure sensor, and an electronic control unit of the vehicle. The signal adjuster includes a rheostat that enables manual adjustment of the power output of the engine.
MULTI-CHAMBER BLOWOFF VALVE
A multi-chamber blowoff valve is provided for releasing excess air pressure from a duct system associated with a vehicle. The blowoff valve has a valve housing, an engine-air interface, and a multiple piston assembly. The valve housing is configured to secure to the duct system at a duct-air interface. The engine-air interface is configured to allow air in and out of the valve housing. The multiple piston assembly is disposed within the valve housing and includes an upper piston and a lower piston that move in unison. The multiple piston assembly is configured to be in a closed position while a pressure differential is above a certain threshold and to be in an open position while the pressure differential is below said certain threshold. While in the open position, a portion of the air in the duct system is released.
Engine air intake device
A cover covering an engine and an intake duct for introducing fresh air outside an engine room into a combustion chamber of the engine are provided in the engine room. The cover includes a top face cover portion covering the engine from above, and a side face cover portion covering the engine from the lateral side. The intake duct is disposed so as to be continuous to a side edge of the side face cover portion such that the intake duct covers the engine from the lateral side together with the side face cover portion.
