Abstract: An adjustable turbocharger wastegate controller suitable for after-market installation is disclosed. The invention makes use of the existing factory wastegate mechanism to form a fully adjustable turbine-inlet pressure relief. The factory wastegate valve assembly and the wastegate lever-arm connected to the wastegate shaft are utilized. The invention extends the lever-arm, and applies seating pressure to the valve with a spring assembly using a substantially lower spring-rate than the factory assembly. The spring loading is adjustable over a very wide range, and improved pressure regulation is achieved.

Abstract: The invention is a self-storing pet enclosure intended for use on a mounting wall outside of a pet door or window. In the stowed configuration, the enclosure is substantially flush with the mounting wall, making it well-suited for applications such as a recreational vehicle, travel trailer, tent trailer, or mobile home. In the deployed configuration, it provides at-will access for a pet to the enclosure, which, in one embodiment, is constructed primarily with wire-mesh panels. This gives the pet access to a well-ventilated, essentially outdoor area. The self-storing feature obviates the need for any additional storage space to keep the enclosure when not in use. The methods of deploying and stowing are simple and do not require any tools or complicated procedures, making the invention easily to use.
