  • Patent number: 9162550
    Abstract: The present teachings provide for a wire harness mounting assembly including a first retention member, a first guide member, a second retention member, and a second guide member. The first retention member and the first guide member are each configured to be spaced apart from the second retention member and the second guide member to suspend a wire harness across a space defined therebetween.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20120241141
    Abstract: A cooling circuit includes a first fluid system with a radiator having an inlet portion, an outlet portion, a first heat exchanger. The first fluid system contains a first fluid and also includes a first inlet branch, a second inlet branch, and a valve member. Also, a second fluid system containing a second fluid includes a second heat exchanger that is operably coupled to the outlet portion of the radiator. The first fluid flows through the first inlet branch to be cooled by the first heat exchanger when the valve member is in the first position. The first fluid flows through the second inlet branch and bypasses the first heat exchanger to allow heat transfer between the first and second fluids via the second heat exchanger when the valve member is in the second position.

  • Patent number: 8016275
    Abstract: A dual-rate resilient isolator having a plurality of raised, generally conical bumps formed on an engagement surface thereof. The bumps in combination with a main body of the resilient isolator provide a dual-rate for isolating CRFM noise vibration and or other vibrations (via the relatively softer resiliency of the bumps) and isolating road vibration and shock (via the relatively harder resiliency of the main body) even though the bumps and the main body are composed of the same resilient material.

  • Publication number: 20080073174
    Abstract: A combined viscous heater and viscous coupling fan drive operates on principles of viscous coupling to provide both, supplemental vehicle interior cabin heating, and rotation to a cooling fan mounted to a fan shaft. A viscous drive chamber and case surround a drive plate and a viscously driven plate. A liquid coolant chamber and case surrounds the viscous drive case that houses the plates for viscous coupling. Liquid coolant passes through the liquid coolant chamber as coolant circulates through the engine block. The coolant chamber has a coolant inlet and outlet. An electromagnetic clutch engages to turn a shaft and the driving plate which viscously couples to and turns the driven plate, which is connected to a shaft and engine cooling fan. The electromagnetic clutch and a fan brake are controlled to govern viscous heat generation by the plates and cooling fan operation.
