  • Publication number: 20230392560
    Abstract: The present invention provides a novel combination of devices to measure and transmit to an electronic controller data pertaining to differential pressures, temperatures, regeneration status, exhaust content, accumulated gas consumption and substitute fuel consumption. The electronic controller compares the data to thresholds; when the controller receives signals indicating these thresholds or limits are met, the controller causes the gas substitution rate to be diminished or set to zero until after-treatments elements are fully regenerated thereby facilitating integration of a mixed fuel system with an application internal combustion engine.

  • Publication number: 20200132294
    Abstract: A grille assembly for a ventilation system, the grille comprising a first primary reflector, a second primary reflector configured and arranged to define an intake gap between the first primary reflector and the second primary reflector, and a secondary reflector located over the intake gap to conceal the intake gap from view; a light source on one of the first and second primary reflectors and configured and arranged to generate light wherein at least some of the light will be redirected by both the primary and secondary reflectors.
