  • Patent number: 10233810
    Abstract: A device includes at least one ammonia storage cartridge comprising an outlet orifice for ammonia intended to be connected to an ammonia transport circuit towards an exhaust line. The device includes an obturator to obturate the outlet orifice, and which is capable of changing between an obturation configuration of the outlet orifice and a configuration for clearance the outlet orifice. The device includes a detector to detect at least one predefined situation, and a controller to control the obturator, and which is capable of controlling the transition of the obturators towards their obturation configuration when the detector detects the predefined situation.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9518488
    Abstract: An ammonia storage cartridge includes an ammonia storage member having a storage material capable of absorbing or adsorbing ammonia. The storage member extends along a longitudinal axis. A heating element heats the storage member, and a hermetic tank houses the storage member. A tubular ammonia circulation element is arranged coaxially to the storage member, and includes a first surface at least partially delimiting, with an element chosen from among the heating element and the hermetic tank, a circulation duct for the fluid ammonia. A second surface is arranged at least partially in contact with the storage member, and at least one orifice passes radially through, allowing the circulation of fluid between the circulation duct and the storage member.
