  • Patent number: 11654979
    Abstract: A passively activated flow control device including a valve body configured to be mounted in a vehicle. The valve body includes an inlet and an outlet. A valve member is arranged at the valve body for selectively opening and closing flow between the inlet and the outlet. The valve member is responsive to acceleration induced forces on the vehicle to shift from one of an open configuration and a closed configuration toward the other of the open configuration and the closed configuration.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 15, 2021
    Date of Patent: May 23, 2023

  • Patent number: 9926022
    Abstract: An airflow management cover for a vehicle subsystem arranged proximate a section of the vehicle to guide oncoming ambient airflow when the vehicle is in motion includes a convex body. The convex body has an exterior surface shaped to redirect an external portion of the oncoming ambient airflow around the vehicle subsystem to thereby minimize aerodynamic drag and reduce aerodynamic lift on the vehicle body. The airflow management cover also includes an aperture defined by the convex body and configured to exhaust a stream of a subsystem portion of the oncoming airflow to rejoin with the redirected external portion of the oncoming airflow after the subsystem portion of the airflow has passed across the subsystem. The airflow management cover additionally includes a fastening flange extending from the convex body and configured for mounting to the vehicle section. A vehicle having such an airflow management cover is also disclosed.
