Abstract:
A diesel dosing module utilizes a diesel fuel shut-off valve, a diesel fuel dosing valve to provide dosing fuel to the inlet of a diesel oxidation catalyst and an air purge valve to purge fuel from a dosing line attached to the diesel dosing module and from a nozzle attached to a distal end of the dosing line. The valves are attached to a housing manifold which is remotely positionable from the nozzle and the high heat areas of the vehicle.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for hydraulic and/or variable valve actuation of engine valves are disclosed. An embodiment of the present invention may include a hydraulic valve actuation system operatively connected to an engine valve. First and second control valves may be operatively connected to the hydraulic valve actuation system and adapted to selectively release hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic valve actuation system independent of one another. The first control valve is preferably a solenoid actuated trigger valve and the second control valve is preferably a mechanically or hydraulically actuated valve.

Abstract:
Lost motion systems and methods for providing engine valves with variable valve actuation for engine valve events are disclosed. The system may include a master piston (210) hydraulically linked to a slave piston (230), and a dedicated cam (110) operatively connected to the master piston. The slave piston may be disposed substantially perpendicular to the master piston in a common housing. The slave piston is adapted to actuate one or more engine valves. The slave piston may incorporate an optional valve seating assembly into its upper end. A trigger valve may be operatively connected to the master-slave hydraulic circuit to selectively release and add hydraulic fluid to the circuit.
