  • Exhaust component with a helical heater
    Patent number: 11105239
    Abstract: An exhaust component assembly includes a housing defining an internal passage for engine exhaust gas, at least one exhaust gas aftertreatment component within the internal passage, and at least one heater to heat the engine exhaust gas. The heater comprises a helical-shaped element with a surface that spirals about an axis for a predetermined length.
    Type: Grant

  • Sensing an operating parameter of a target concealed from a sensor by an interposed component
    Patent number: 7489126
    Abstract: An assembly that includes a target component mounted for rotation about an axis, a sensor mounted adjacent the inner member and directed toward the inner member to measure the rotational speed of the target component and an outer component interposed between the sensor and the target component. Low magnetic permeability of the outer component is assured by appropriate selection of the material, maintaining the concentration of martensite in the outer component below a reference concentration as indicated by certain reference indices such as the Instability Function, and/or by maintaining the temperature at which a stamping operation is performed on the inner member above a pre-determined temperature.
