Abstract: A washing machine appliance includes a wash basket that is rotatably mounted within a wash tub. A water supply is provided for selectively adding wash fluid to the wash tub, a motor assembly is mechanically coupled to the wash basket for selectively rotating the wash basket, and a turbidity sensor is positioned within the wash fluid. A controller is configured to operate the water supply to dispense a target volume of the wash fluid, perform an additive mixing cycle to agitate wash additive within the target volume of the wash fluid, obtain a first turbidity measurement, perform an agitation cycle with the target volume of the wash fluid, obtain a second turbidity measurement, and complete a wash cycle at the a wash cycle intensity determined a based at least in part on the first turbidity and the second turbidity.

Abstract: A trailer is disclosed which includes a first door with a first hinge configured to allow the first door to operate between an open position and a closed position, and a second door on the opposing side of the trailer with a second hinge configured to allow the second door to operate between an open position and a closed position. The trailer also includes a roof and a trailer tongue with a coupling configured to attach to a hitch of a vehicle. Two or more wheels are provided that are extendable from an up position to a down position. In this way, when the wheels are in the down position, the trailer is lifted off the ground.

Abstract: A washing machine appliance, a controller, and a method for operating a washing machine appliance are provided. The appliance includes a controller operably coupled to a motor assembly that is operably coupled to a wash basket, and a drain pump assembly. The controller is configured to rotate the wash basket to at least a desired speed; determine one or more of whether at least the desired speed of the wash basket is achieved within a period of time, or whether an energy parameter threshold of a motor assembly is exceeded when rotating the wash basket within the period of time; and generate an output signal corresponding to fluid detection at a wash tub when the wash basket fails to rotate to at least the desired speed within the period of time or, when the energy parameter threshold is exceeded when rotating the wash basket within the period of time.

Abstract: A filter module for filtering fuel in an engine system includes a primary filter, a secondary filter, and a module housing. A drain valve is movable between a closed position blocking a drain port in the module housing, and an open position. A service valve assembly is positioned at least partially within a cross passage in the module housing and adjustable from a closed configuration blocking a primary-side fuel passage from a secondary-side fuel passage in the module housing, to an open configuration, to drain fluids from the filter module by way of the single drain port.

Abstract: A pedestal for use with a canister filter system and a filter element for positioning and retaining the filter element in the canister filter system includes an at least partially annular body defining a longitudinal axis, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction. Also, the pedestal includes an annular wall that terminates at a bottom free end, and that defines a slot that extends axially upwardly and circumferentially from the bottom free end. A flow aperture extends through the annular wall that is disposed axially above the slot.

Abstract: A center tube and a central fluid supply tube combination includes a center tube body defining a longitudinal length, and a central reservoir. The center tube also includes an apertured annular wall extending axially the majority of the longitudinal length, and a first annular solid wall extending axially from the apertured annular wall. A central fluid supply tube is disposed in the central reservoir, and includes a second annular solid wall that is radially surrounded by the apertured annular wall of the center tube. The second annular solid wall defines a supply passage with a fully circular flow flux.

Abstract: A method of assembling a canister filter system includes inserting a first filter component into a second filter component, and continuing the insertion until a first tab of either the first filter component or the second filter component contacts the other of the first filter component and the second filter component.

Abstract: An integrated seal member includes an at least partially annular body defining a longitudinal axis, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction. The at least partially annular body includes a mounting portion, a sealing portion including at least one top sealing feature and at least one bottom sealing feature, and an apertured connecting portion that extends radially outwardly from the mounting portion to the sealing portion.
