Gene F. Schockemoehl has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 6263998
    Abstract: An improved silencer panel construction for use in the exhaust gas stream of power generation equipment is described. The silencer panel has an outer periphery of U-shaped channel. Perforated webbing is attached within the outer periphery to strengthen the outer periphery and reduce thermal gradients building up within the web during operation. Acoustical insulation is provided within the silencer panel and held in place by screening as well as perforated cladding. A plurality of silencer panels are spaced apart within the silencer chamber to attenuate the noise produced by the exhaust gas stream.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 15, 1997
    Date of Patent: July 24, 2001
    Assignee: Braden Manufacturing, L.L.C.

  • Patent number: 5957768
    Abstract: An exhaust gas diffuser interface includes a stainless steel shell with varying levels of insulation. The varying levels of insulation concentrate thermal expansion and contraction at the turbine outlet end allowing it to be connected to the outlet by way of a seal weld. This construction allows expansion and contraction of the diffuser interface in unison with the attached turbine outlet, as well as the diffuser inlet.
