Patents by Inventor Mark Alan Gogins

Mark Alan Gogins 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: 7101419
    Abstract: An air filter assembly for removing particulate contaminants, chemical contaminants, or both, from an incoming dirty air stream. The resulting filtered or clean air is supplied to catalytic equipment, such as a fuel cell. The filter assembly can include a physical filter portion for removing physical or particulate contaminants, a chemical filter portion for removing chemical contaminants, or can have both portions.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 28, 2003
    Date of Patent: September 5, 2006
    Assignee: Donaldson Company, Inc.
    Inventors: Andrew James Dallas, Mark Alan Gogins, Kristine Marie Graham, Daniel Adamek, Robert Skuster
  • Publication number: 20040226437
    Abstract: A system for particulate removal from fluid streams by using acoustic cavity technology. The technology can be applied to various applications, such as Diesel engine post-combustion emissions control systems, mist filtration systems, particle recovery systems, liquid degassing systems, and closed crankcase ventilation systems. An acoustic cavity can be used to replace an inertial separator, cyclone, or similar particulate removal equipment, providing a considerably lower pressure loss across the cavity compared to an inertial separator or cyclone, because an acoustic cavity does not appreciable alter the fluid flow path.

  • Patent number: 6368386
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods that use a hydrophobic medium to remove salt and moisture from the intake air of a gas turbine system. The disclosure also relates to systems and methods that use a two stage filtering process to remove particulate material, salt and moisture from the intake air of a gas turbine system. Particulate material is filtered from the intake air at a first stage air cleaner. Subsequently, salt and moisture are removed from the intake air at a second stage salt barrier located downstream from the first stage air cleaner. In certain embodiments, the second stage salt barrier uses a hydrophobic medium to remove salt and moisture from the intake air.
