Patents by Inventor Gilles CHEVALIER

Gilles CHEVALIER 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: 11247537
    Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided a positive pressure vent for a vehicle. The vent includes an inlet chamber having an air intake port facing into an air stream generated by motion of the vehicle so as to collect air and form a positive pressure inside the inlet chamber. There is further provided a filter adapted to filter air from the inlet chamber of particulate matter. A filtered air path is further provided for allowing filtered air from the filter to travel to the interior of the vehicle under the urging of the positive pressure from the inlet chamber.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20200215879
    Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided a positive pressure vent (10) for a vehicle (12). The vent (10) includes an inlet chamber (14) having an air intake port (16) facing into an air stream generated by motion of the vehicle (12) so as to collect air and form a positive pressure inside the inlet chamber (14). There is further provided a filter (18) adapted to filter air from the inlet chamber (14) of particulate matter. A filtered air path (25) is further provided for allowing filtered air from the filter (18) to travel to the interior of the vehicle (12) under the urging of the positive pressure from the inlet chamber (14).

  • Patent number: 9058049
    Abstract: A low-power-mode unit connected in parallel with a low-dropout regulator to provide a low-power mode includes a power P-MOS transistor, a differential amplifier, and an analog synchronization loop. The analog synchronization loop is configured to add a variable voltage offset depending on a total current at the output such that, in a high-power mode, the low-power unit current flowing through the P-MOS transistor is not zero, while being substantially smaller than the low-dropout regulator current flowing through the low-dropout regulator, and smaller than a predetermined value.
