A throttle drive actuator for an engine includes a rotor and a stator. The rotor connects with a valve of a throttle body to rotate the valve, to open a close an air passage of the throttle body of the engine.

A vehicle component, and a method and tool for forming the component are provided. First and second tools with first and second surfaces, respectively, are provided. The first tool is translated along a first axis towards the second tool such that the first and second surfaces cooperate to define a mold cavity configured to form an accessory mount feature with an aperture. The second surface is configured to form an integrated rib extending outwardly from an upper surface of the mount feature to a planar bearing surface surrounding the aperture with the planar bearing surface oriented at an acute angle relative to the upper surface. The first axis is substantially parallel to the upper surface.

A system, apparatus and associated method for the catalyzation of a fossil fuel prior to combustion within an internal combustion engine. A voltage is inputted from a source to a relay and an ignition circuit in separate communication with the relay. The relay converts the input voltage to a negative output voltage applied to a fuel line in communication with a fuel injector of the engine, resulting in a negative charge imparted to the fuel prior to combustion and in order to increase oxidation/burn efficiency with resultant mileage/horsepower increase and concurrent decrease in pollutants resulting from discharge of partially combusted reactants.

A fuel-saving device includes an oxygen generator adapted for producing oxygen, an air intake component adapted for inhaling air, and a conveyor comprising an output terminal adapted for outputting gas, an oxygen terminal connected with the oxygen generator, an air terminal connected with the air intake component, and a connector connecting the output terminal, the oxygen terminal and the air terminal, so as to allow oxygen from the oxygen generator and air from the air intake component to be mixed and output through the output terminal.

In order to provide a temperature and humidity sensor with improved reliability, the temperature and humidity sensor in which all or part of a case of the temperature and humidity sensor is inserted into a main duct for causing gas to pass through and which detects humidity of the gas, includes: a first sub-passage configured as a part of the case, a part of the gas passing through the main duct flowing in substantially the same direction as a flow in the main duct; a throttle section provided between an inlet and an outlet of the first sub-passage and on an inner surface of the first sub-passage, the throttle section having a throttle whose cross-sectional area is smaller than an average cross-sectional area of the entire first sub-passage; and a second sub-passage which connects an upstream side and a downstream side of the throttle section and is different from the first sub-passage. The first sub-passage and an inlet and an outlet of the second sub-passage are connected via respective connection ports, and the connection port between the inlet of the second sub-passage and the first sub-passage or the connection port between the outlet of the second sub-passage and the first sub-passage is provided on a side where a throttle is not provided when viewed from an axis in an upstream and downstream direction of the flow in the first sub-passage.

The disclosure herein relates to devices for improving combustion engine performance. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to ionizing devices for improving combustion engine performance. Engine improvements include, but are not limited to reducing emissions, improving fuel efficiency, improving power, and reducing engine noise in combustion engines that utilizes a computer to control the air/fuel mixture.

The present disclosure relates to a device for attaching a control unit, preferentially an electronic engine control unit, to a component of an internal combustion engine. The device includes a first connecting component which is designed in order to be attached to the component of the internal combustion engine the first connecting component comprising a first fluid duct. The device further includes a second connecting component, which, via at least one damping element, is attached, spaced from the first fluid duct, to the first connecting component and is designed for mounting the control unit.

An air box and methods are provided for communicating an airstream through an air filter to an air intake duct of an internal combustion engine of a vehicle. The air box is comprised of a housing that supports the air filter within an interior of the housing. A mount portion within the housing fixedly receives a base of the air filter. Multiple air inlets couple with corresponding air inlet ports of the vehicle to direct the airstream into the air box. A duct directs the airstream from the multiple air inlets to the interior of the housing and to the air filter. An opening into the housing exposes at least one surface of an electronic control unit (ECU) to the airstream for cooling of the ECU. A conduit communicates the airstream from an interior of the air filter to the air intake duct of the internal combustion engine.
