Patent number: 12312984Abstract: An oil separation baffle is mounted in an oil gallery of an internal combustion engine. A lower section includes a bottom wall and side window openings. Crankcase gasses flow into the side window openings, through the lower section, and through the top opening. An upper section includes a plurality of ribs extending horizontally between a front side wall of the upper section and a rear side wall of the upper section. The plurality of ribs are vertically spaced apart from each other and extend from a first wall of the oil gallery toward a second wall of the oil gallery to an opening defined between a distal end of the rib and the other of the first and second walls of the oil gallery. The bottom planar wall separates larger oil droplets and the ribs separate smaller oil particles from the crankcase gasses and return the oil to the crankcase.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2022Date of Patent: May 27, 2025Assignee: FORD GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Erzabeth J. Holcombe, Joshua D. Simon, Theodore Beyer, Christopher K. Palazzolo, Louis Van Hout, John McNally

Patent number: 12002985Abstract: In one aspect the present disclosure relates to a battery cabinet apparatus having flame and noxious gas management capability. The apparatus has multiple, parallel arranged vertical frame elements, multiple spaced apart shelves disposed within an interior area of the apparatus, and multiple louver panels. The louver panels are arranged one above another and coupled to a first pair of the vertical frame elements. Each of the louver panels has an upper portion and a lower portion, where the lower portion angles inwardly relative to the interior area of the apparatus. In this manner the upper portion of a first one of the louver panels cooperates with the lower portion of a second one of the louver panels disposed immediately above the first one of the louver panels to form an opening. The opening enables exhausting at least one of flames or noxious gasses that develop within the apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2021Date of Patent: June 4, 2024Assignee: Vertiv CorporationInventors: John McNally, Nicholas David Slee

Publication number: 20060251014Abstract: The present invention is related to a method and system for preventing high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) transmission loss due to transmission gap in compressed mode in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). In accordance with one embodiment, a Node-B receives a compressed mode transmission gap schedule of a WTRU, identifies HSDPA transmission time intervals (TTIs) that are affected by the WTRU compressed mode transmission gap schedule and schedules the HSDPA transmissions not to overlap the WTRU compressed mode transmission gap schedule. In accordance with another embodiment, the Node-B may inform the HSDPA transmission schedule to a radio network controller (RNC) and the RNC coordinates the HSDPA transmission schedule and a compressed mode transmission gap schedule of the WTRU.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2005Publication date: November 9, 2006Applicant: InterDigital Technology CorporationInventors: Douglas Castor, Gregory Sternberg, John McNally
