  • Patent number: 4949682
    Abstract: The present deflector removes particulate matter such as aluminum chips, dirt, and sludge from the coolant flow of an auto coolant system by the creation of swirling, circular fluid flow against the direction of coolant flow and away from the hose conveying the coolant. The swirling, circular fluid flow or eddies slow both the rate of the flow of the coolant and the rate of flow of particulate matter, which allows the particulate to settle out of the main current flow into an oblique lower conduit section. The settled particulate matter is passively stored in the lower conduit section until removed by a threaded cap without flushing the coolant system.
