摘要:
An air intake muffler for a heater, especially a motor vehicle heater, with a hollow body (7) of sound-absorbing material which is surrounded by a muffler chamber (2) and is penetrated by a cavity (8) which is flush with an inlet connection (9) and an outlet (10) of the muffler chamber (2) which can be connected to an air intake opening of the heater. To reliably prevent water or moisture from penetrating into an assembly downstream of the muffler (1), it is provided that the muffler chamber (2) is downstream of a water separator which has a water separation chamber (3) with at least one air intake opening (20 to 23) in its wall located laterally offset relative to the inlet of the muffler chamber (2) and which is separated from the muffler chamber by a deflector wall (24 to 27) which prevents direct flow from the air intake opening to the inlet connection (9).

An inertia charge intake manifold is associated with an internal combustion engine having a plurality of cylinders. The intake manifold includes a plurality of elongated separate branch pipes each corresponding to a respective one of the cylinders. The intake manifold also includes a common flange for connecting a first end of each branch pipe to the internal combustion engine. The common flange has a first surface attached to the internal combustion engine. Further, the intake manifold includes a surge tank to which a second end of each branch pipe is connected. The common flange, the surge tank and each branch pipe are made of a hard thermoplastic synthetic resin. The common flange is integrally connected to the surge tank.

A sound attenuation system for a compressor of a direct fuel injected engine of an outboard motor comprises a discharge sound attenuator connected in fluid communication with an air distribution manifold outlet and a suction sound attenuator connected in fluid communication with the suction port of a compressor. In a typical application of the present invention, the air distribution manifold is connected in fluid communication with a discharge port of the compressor. Both the discharge sound attenuator and the suction sound attenuator can further include filter media disposed within their internal cavities.

A filter (10, 10a) includes a housing (12, 12a) extending along an axis (14). and having an inlet (16, 16a) at one axial end (18, 18a) of the housing and having an outlet (20, 20a) at a distally opposite axial end (22, 22a) of the housing. One or more pleated filter elements (44, 44a, 44b, 44c, 44d) in the housing are pleated along a plurality of bend lines (46, 48) extending axially. The filter element has a plurality of wall segments (50) extending in serpentine manner between the bend lines. The wall segments extend axially between upstream ends (52) and downstream ends (54) and define axial flow channels (58, 62) therebetween. The upstream ends of the wall segments are alternately sealed (56) to each other to defme a first set of flow channels (58) having open upstream ends (60), and a second set of flow channels (62) interdigitated with the first set of flow channels and having closed upstream ends (64). The downstream ends of the wall segments are alternately sealed to each other (66) such that the first set of flow channels have closed downstream ends (68), and the second set of flow channels have open downstream ends (70). Fluid to be filtered flows substantially directly axially through the filter element (44) or elements (44a, 44b, 44c, 44d), through the open upstream ends of the first set of flow channels then through the wall segments then through the open downstream ends of the second set of flow channels. A gasket (82, 82a, 82b, 82c) seals the filter element to the housing.
摘要:
An integrated air fuel module (10) for an internal combustion engine reduces or eliminates the escape of hydrocarbon evaporative emissions from the integrated air fuel module (10) system, sub systems and components. The integrated air fuel module (10) includes containment means (34), such as a valve (34) or carbon adsorber, that blocks the escape of evaporated hydrocarbon emissions from the air inlet (16) of an engine during engine off conditions. The module (10) provides a reduced number of potential external hydrocarbon leak and permeation paths to the surrounding atmosphere. Preferred geometries of the intake manifold (12) in the module (10) with the internal integration of other normally external systems, such as fuel injection (60) and positive crankcase ventilation (50) systems, accomplish the containment of evaporative emissions within or entering the air fuel module (10) between engine operating periods when the engine is shut down.
摘要:
An apparatus for damping acoustic vibrations in a combustor as well as a corresponding combustor arrangement with the apparatus. The apparatus includes a Helmholtz resonator (4) that can be connected via a connecting channel (2) with a combustor (1). The Helmholtz resonator (4) contains a hollow body (6) the volume of which can be changed by adding or draining a fluid via a supply line (5), or is located adjacent to such a hollow body in such a way that the resonance volume (3) of the Helmholtz resonator (4) is changed when the volume of the hollow body (6) is changed. This apparatus makes it possible to adjust the resonance frequency of a Helmholtz resonator arranged inside a pressure container in accordance with the respective current operating point of the combustor to be damped, without having to pass movable components through the pressure container.

An air resonator system for a vehicle has a variable volume to reduce noise expected at both high and low speeds. In one enbodiment, a pair of necks communicate with chamber portions. A valve selectively blocks communication between the chamber portions and allows each of the necks to communicate with the relatively small volume chamber portions. This position is particularly good for reducing the high frequency noise is expected at high engine speeds. The valve is movable to a second position at which it allows communication between the two chamber portions and blocks communication between one of the necks and its respective chamber portion. The relatively large chamber volume provided at this position is particularly well suited for reducing the low frequency noise expected with low engine speed. Thus, a single air resonator system is provided which can be adjusted to accommodate noise at both high and low speeds.

There is provided a baffle plate of a discharge muffler for a hermetic reciprocating compressor which is mounted in an inner portion of the discharge muffler mounted at a lower portion of a cylinder block so as to reduce flow noise of a refrigerant discharged to a discharge pipe, characterized in that an extended duct, which is communicated from a center portion of the baffle plate to the discharge pipe and has a diameter, is formed during a press molding. The extended duct is formed to be directed to the cover from the baffle plate by a burring process during a press molding, thereby improving the noise excluding efficiency.
摘要:
A method is provided for cleansing a seal of a device used for sealing an evaporative emission control system of an automotive vehicle. The method starts by determining if a request to close the device has been made. If the request to close the device has been made, the method cycles the device a plurality of times to press and lift the seal off of a seat repeatedly. The method also determines if the seal is closed after the cycling step. If the seal is not closed after the cycling step, the method closes the seal. Preferably, the cycling step includes cycling the device at a pre-selected duty cycle, frequency and cycle count. The duty cycle, frequency, and cycle count correspond to calibration tables prepared for the particular device employed to insure that the seal strikes its seat about three times before sealing.
