Abstract: Apparatus for detecting and removing a gas mass from a vascular infusion line, the apparatus comprising: a cartridge, the cartridge comprising: an inlet port; a chamber having a top end, a bottom end and a side wall extending therebetween; an outlet port; a purge port; a first passageway connecting the inlet port to the side wall of the chamber with an upward inclination; a second passageway connecting the bottom end of the chamber to the outlet port; and a third passageway connecting the top end of the chamber to the purge port.

Abstract: A hydraulic subassembly is preassembled outside the vehicle into which it is later installed, using an assembly tool. The components of the subassembly are fastened in predetermined positions on the assembly tool, following which hydraulic connections are made between the components. The completed subassembly is fastened to a pickup tool and then disconnected from the assembly tool, allowing an assembly operator to lift the subassembly away from the assembly tool and carry it to the vehicle for installation. The pickup tool is also used to position and hold the subassembly within the vehicle while the subassembly is being connected to hydraulic systems on the vehicle. Following installation of the subassembly, the pickup tool is unfastened from the subassembly and removed from the vehicle.

Abstract: An inline air filter for fuel injected engines that provides for the installation of the air filter into the air intake line of an air intake system of a fuel injected engine. The inline air includes a foam filter, a foam filter mesh, and a mesh filter. The foam filter is made from a flexible reticulated polyurethane foam material that allows proper air flow while maintaining good filtering capability. The inline air filter is installed onto an air intake assembly of the fuel injected engine by splicing the inline air filter into an air intake tube.

Abstract: A multi port air filter for fuel injected engines provides for the installation of the air filter into the air intake line of an air intake system of a fuel injected engine. The multi port air filter has several filtering elements including an outside filter screen, a foam filter, and inside filter screen, a foam filter mesh, and a mesh filter. The foam filter is made from a flexible reticulated polyurethane foam material that allows proper air flow while maintaining good filtering capability.
