  • Publication number: 20050045562
    Abstract: A filter and a method of using the filter for removing contaminants from LPG. The LPG enters the filter through an inlet and passes through a first filtration element where chemical contaminants are removed by a chemical entrapping agent, preferably a zeolite. Subsequently, the LPG passes through a second filtration element where particulate contaminants are removed. The invention is also a method of removing contaminants from LPG including the step of routing the flow of the LPG through chemical and particulate filter elements so that chemical and particulate contaminants are sequentially removed.

  • Patent number: 6810863
    Abstract: A gas/air mixer assembly provides a Venturi metering system that may draw fuel from a zero governor, mix it with air to form a homogenous gas/air mixture for delivery to an internal combustion engine. The gas/air mixer assembly may also accept fuel under pressure from a gas metering valve or fuel injector for delivery to an internal combustion engine. The mixer includes an air horn, the relative position of which in relation to a shaped restriction body governs the air flow into the engine intake manifold. The flange of the air horn is configured to redirect the flow of air without generating significant turbulence, and providing a maximum velocity perpendicular flow to the injection of fuel to be mixed therein. The relative position of the air horn to the shaped restriction body is determined based on the cubic capacity and speed of the engine with which it is used.
