Patent number: 11326492Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a hydrocarbon dosing system to control dosing of diesel fuel into an exhaust upstream of a vehicle's oxidation catalyst (VOC). The system 100 includes separate inlets (102,104) to allow inflow of a first fluid and the second fluid into the system, and an outlet 116. The first fluid configured to facilitate purging of the second fluid into the VOC through the outlet 116. The system 100 incorporates multiple valves (106, 108, 112) and pressure sensor 114 to control dosing and purging of the fluids. The system 100 provides an intrinsic non-return valve mechanism to restrict the flow of the first fluid into a fluid path of the second fluid, and vice versa. The system 100 provides intrinsic pressure relief mechanism for controlled release of pressure from system 100. The system 100 includes additional optional check valves 208 and filter screens 206 for redundancy purposes.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2019Date of Patent: May 10, 2022Assignee: ROTEX AUTOMATION LIMITEDInventor: Nirav Shah

Patent number: 10681607Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for an enhanced RSS (eRSS) mechanisms are provided. The eRSS mechanisms may involve routing received data packets to application processor cores based on network-specific identifier(s), such as an Evolved Packet System (EPS) bearer identity (ID), a Packet Data Network (PDN) ID, an Access Point Name (APN), or a Quality of Service (QoS) Flow Identifier (QFI). The network-specific IDs may be located in a layer 2 (L2) protocol stack, which may be stored in cache for use by different layers in the L2 protocol stack. In this way, the network-specific IDs may be readily available for use by the eRSS mechanism, which may improve cache efficiency and reduce storage overhead. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2018Date of Patent: June 9, 2020Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Nirav Shah, Pabitra Dalai, El-Houari Soussi, Rene Van Ee, Gaurish Deuskar
