Mark A. Lambrecht 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: 11519316
    Abstract: An exhaust system includes a housing having an internal cavity defining an exhaust gas passage extending along an axis, at least one exhaust gas aftertreatment component positioned within the internal cavity, and an inlet cover mounted to the housing to provide an open internal area that is upstream of the internal cavity. The inlet cover has a contoured outer surface that includes an inlet opening and at least one sensor opening that is configured to receive an exhaust gas sensor. An inlet tube is mounted to the inlet cover at the inlet opening. A plate is positioned upstream of the at least one gas aftertreatment component and within the open internal area. The plate has a curved surface with a plurality of openings.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6721694
    Abstract: A method for generating a model of a portion of the floor of a body of water from a plurality of depth measurement sources includes determining an overlap of any of the plurality of depth measurement sources with another depth measurement source and generating a relative shift between any two depth measurement sources that overlap. For each depth measurement source that overlaps with at least one other source, generating an overall shift based on the generated relative shifts. The method also includes generating a desired grid having a plurality of grid nodes and generating a model depth at a plurality of the grid nodes based, at least in part, on a global shift for the measurements of the plurality of sources based on the relative shift. Further, an output is generated of all model depths at respective grid nodes.

  • Patent number: 6351717
    Abstract: A method for determining measurements of a surface includes determining a trend for a plurality of measurements and determining, for each of at least one of the plurality of measurements, an associated residual between the trend and the measurement and determining, for each of at least one of the associated residuals, an interpolated value for the residual. The method also includes comparing, for each of the at least one associated residuals, the residual to the interpolated value of the residual to determine whether a measurement associated with the residual is anomalous. In response to determining that a measurement associated with the residual is anomalous, the anomalous measurement is discarded. The remaining measurements then represent the surface of interest. The system includes a processor for executing a program of the method. Further, the system includes memory, an input device, and an output device.
