Patent number: 11873754Abstract: An internal combustion engine may include a first piston reciprocatingly disposed in a first cylinder, and a second piston reciprocatingly disposed in a second cylinder. A crankshaft may be coupled with the first piston and the second piston for rotational motion associated with reciprocating movement of at least one of the first piston and the second piston. A combustion chamber may be fluidly coupled with the first cylinder and the second cylinder. An intake valve may provide selective fluid communication between an intake system and the combustion chamber. The intake valve may be generally centrally disposed relative to the first cylinder and the second cylinder. An exhaust valve may provide selective fluid communication between an exhaust system and the combustion chamber. An ignition source may be at least partially disposed within the combustion chamber.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2022Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: IMPACT CONSULTING AND ENGINEERING LLCInventors: Gus Alexander, Richard J. Gilpatrick, Jeffrey Coughlin, James Lowell McNaughton, Jr.

Patent number: 11698612Abstract: An extension cord includes a plurality of electrical conductors. A plug is configured to electrically couple a first respective end of the plurality of electrical conductors with an electrical receptacle of a power source. An outlet assembly is coupled with a second respective end of the plurality of electrical conductors. The outlet assembly may include one or more outlet receptacles configured to provide electrical power from the power source. A power meter may be configured to measure an electrical draw through the outlet assembly and to provide a user perceptible output based upon the measured electrical draw. A carbon monoxide monitor may be configured to detect an environmental carbon monoxide level proximate the outlet assembly and to provide a user perceptible indication when the detected environment carbon monoxide level exceeds a threshold.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2020Date of Patent: July 11, 2023Assignee: IMPACT CONSULTING AND ENGINEERING LLCInventors: Chris Alexander, Richard J. Gilpatrick
