Tamper resistant hydrocarbon trap for combustion engines

Номер: US0011506158B2
Автор: Alexander Adam King, David S. Moyer, Ha To Chung, Roger Joseph Khami
Принадлежит: Ford Global Technologies, LLC

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.

A dual path fuel vapor purge system is disclosed for an engine having a turbocharger or a super. The purge system includes a canister configured to collect fuel vapor from a fuel tank. A canister purge valve is provided downstream from the canister. An ejector valve receives fuel vapors from the canister through the canister purge valve. A first vapor purge path directs the fuel vapor to an intake manifold of the engine. A second vapor purge path directs fuel vapor to an air induction system. A check valve downstream from the ejector valve receives the fuel vapor from the ejector and supplies the fuel vapor to the air induction system. Boost flow opens the check valve when the air induction system is in operation to boost the engine and closes the check valve when the engine is in operation with normal aspiration or when a leak is detected.

Vapors in the fuel tank of a vehicle are collected in a carbon canister. An ejector or aspirator is used to purge the carbon canister in a pressure-charged engine in which a positive pressure exists in the intake. A compact ejector includes a substantially planar flange and a venturi tube coupled to the flange with a central axis of the venturi tube substantially parallel to the flange. By mounting the ejector on an intake component, having the venturi tube on the inside of the intake component, and having the venturi tube parallel to the flange yields a very compact package and protects the ejector from damage from other engine components.

Tamper resistant hydrocarbon trap for combustion engines

Номер: US20220018318A1
Автор: Alexander Adam King, David S. Moyer, Ha To Chung, Roger Joseph Khami

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.

MANUFACTURE OF A COMPACT EJECTOR SYSTEM FOR A CHARGED INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE

Dämpfe in dem Kraftstofftank eines Fahrzeugs werden in einem Kohlebehälter gesammelt. Ein Ejektor oder Aspirator wird dazu verwendet, den Kohlebehälter in einem aufgeladenen Motor zu spülen, bei dem ein Überdruck im Einlass vorliegt. Ein kompakter Ejektor beinhaltet einen im Wesentlichen ebenen Flansch und ein Venturi-Rohr, das an den Flansch gekoppelt ist, wobei eine Mittelachse des Venturi-Rohrs im Wesentlichen parallel zu dem Flansch ist. Durch Herstellen des Ejektors in zwei Stücken sind Abmessungen innerhalb des Ejektors: Kehle, zusammenlaufender Teilabschnitt und auseinanderlaufender Teilabschnitt, genauer als bei Herstellungstechniken nach dem Stand, wodurch bessere Strömungseigenschaften über den gesamten Aufladungsbereich hinweg bereitgestellt werden. Vapors in the fuel tank of a vehicle are collected in a carbon canister. An ejector or aspirator is used to flush the carbon canister in a turbocharged engine that has positive pressure in the inlet. A compact ejector includes a substantially planar flange and a Venturi tube coupled to the flange with a center axis of the Venturi tube substantially parallel to the flange. By making the ejector in two pieces, dimensions within the ejector are throat, converging section, and divergent section, more accurate than prior art manufacturing techniques, thereby providing better flow characteristics over the entire charging area.

Ein Doppelpfad-Kraftstoffdampfspülsystem wird für einen Motor offenbart, der einen Turbolader oder ein Ladegebläse aufweist. Das Spülsystem beinhaltet einen Behälter, der dazu konfiguriert ist, Kraftstoffdampf aus einem Kraftstofftank zu sammeln. Ein Behälterspülventil ist stromabwärts des Behälters bereitgestellt. Ein Ejektorventil nimmt Kraftstoffdämpfe aus dem Behälter durch das Behälterspülventil auf. Ein erster Dampfspülpfad leitet den Kraftstoffdampf zu einem Ansaugkrümmer des Motors. Ein zweiter Dampfspülpfad leitet Kraftstoffdampf zu einem Luftansaugsystem. Ein Rückschlagventil stromabwärts des Ejektorventils nimmt den Kraftstoffdampf von dem Ejektor auf und führt den Kraftstoffdampf dem Luftansaugsystem zu. Ladeströmung öffnet das Rückschlagventil, wenn das Luftansaugsystem betrieben wird, um den Motor aufzuladen, und schließt das Rückschlagventil, wenn der Motor mit normaler Ansaugung betrieben wird oder ein Austritt detektiert wird.
