  • Patent number: 12338756
    Abstract: A water drainage assembly for an aftertreatment system includes: a first tube configured to be coupled to an outlet conduit of the aftertreatment system; a second tube having a first end coupled to an outer surface of the first tube, a second end opposite the first end, and an intermediate portion located between the first end and the second end; and a baffle plate located in the second tube. The intermediate portion of the second tube surrounds an end portion of the first tube such that a volume is defined between the end portion of the first tube and the intermediate portion of the second tube. The second tube comprises a drain port configured to allow water to drain from the volume defined between the end portion of the first tube and the intermediate portion of the second tube.

  • Patent number: 12031466
    Abstract: A water drainage assembly for an aftertreatment system includes: a tube having an inlet structured to be coupled to an outlet conduit of an aftertreatment system; a drain port extending through the tube; a first baffle disposed in the tube, a first baffle first end attached to an inner surface of the tube at a first location, wherein at least a portion of the first baffle is inclined downwards with respect to gravity; and a second baffle disposed in the tube below the first baffle, a second baffle first end being coupled to the inner surface of the tube at a second location that is opposite to and below the first location, wherein at least a portion of the second baffle is inclined upwards with respect to gravity.

  • Patent number: 11572822
    Abstract: A water drainage assembly for an aftertreatment system comprises a first tube structured to be coupled to an outlet conduit of the aftertreatment system and has a first cross-sectional width. A second tube is disposed radially around the first tube. A first end of the second tube is coupled to a radially outer surface of the first tube. A portion of the second tube has a second cross-sectional width larger than the first cross-sectional width such that a volume is defined between the first and second tubes. A drain port is defined in the second tube proximate to the first end. The assembly is structured such that water flowing into the water drainage assembly flows into the volume defined between the first tube and the second tube and is expelled therefrom via the drain port.
