Abstract: A pulse ring assembly for air cleaner systems that is adapted to produce a pulse ring of gas to clean a filter element. The air cleaner system may include an outer tube and an inner tube configured to receive the inner tube such that at least a portion of an interior surface of the outer tube faces at least a portion of an exterior surface of the inner tube. The outer tube may include a pulse port extending between the interior and exterior surfaces of the outer tube into an outer tube passageway. Filtered air may be configured to flow from a first filter cartridge, through the outer and inner tubes, and to an engine intake. The system may also include a pulse jet apparatus in fluid communication with the pulse port of the outer tube and configured to direct gas through the pulse port towards the first filter cartridge.

Abstract: A system and method of operating an air cleaner assembly including a selective scavenging apparatus that may be configured to actuate in response to a pulse cleaning operation. The air cleaner assembly may include an air cleaner housing, filter media positioned within an interior space of the air cleaner housing, a pulse cleaning apparatus extending into the interior space, and the selective scavenging apparatus in fluid communication with an egress aperture of the air cleaner housing. The selective scavenging apparatus may be configured to move fluid and sediment out of the air cleaner housing during a scavenging time period and the pulse cleaning apparatus may be configured to direct a pulse of gas into the clean air space during a cleaning operation. The scavenging time period may start based on the beginning of the cleaning operation and may end based on the completion of the cleaning operation.

Abstract: An assembly and system of an air cleaner for a vehicle is described herein. The air cleaner assembly and systems include a filter cartridge extending along a longitudinal axis between a first filter end and a second filter end. The filter cartridge includes filter media configured to filter air passing through the filter media. The filter cartridge includes a cartridge passage defined by an inner filter surface of the filter cartridge. The air cleaner assembly and systems also include a pulse tube extension coupled to the filter cartridge and extending into the cartridge passage along the longitudinal axis such that an outer tube surface of the pulse tube extension faces the inner filter surface of the filter cartridge. The pulse tube extension defines a tube passage located within the cartridge passage.

Abstract: Pulse jet air cleaner systems components and methods are described. The features relate to air cleaner housings that include a cartridge receiving section. Features described relate to a possible two-stage construction, a pulse jet accumulator section, pulse jet equipment for cleaning a filter cartridge positioned within the air cleaner; evacuation valve arrangements for projection of dust from the air cleaners; and other example features. Methods of assembly and use are also provided.

Abstract: An in-vehicle transmitter for wirelessly controlling a plurality of remote electronic systems is described. The transmitter includes a memory configured to store a plurality of wireless control code for the plurality of remote electronic systems. The plurality of wireless control code includes a first code to control the operation of a first remote electronic system and a second code different than the first code to control the operation of a second remote electronic system. The transmitter further includes a control circuit mounted to a vehicle interior element configured, in response to operator actuation of one switch, so that the transmitter provides a first wireless control signal having the first code and a second wireless control signal having the second code.

Abstract: Methods, techniques, and constructions are provided for use to apply an evacuation valve arrangement on an air cleaner assembly that is configured for pulse jet operation. An example evacuation valve arrangement is provided which comprises a valve member in the form of a sleeve that extends completely around a sidewall portion of an air cleaner housing of a pulse jet air cleaner. Examples are depicted in which the sidewall portion can comprise: a portion of a housing sidewall section that surrounds an installed filter cartridge, in use; a portion of an access cover; or, a drop tube secured to a portion of the housing, for example either on an access cover or on another portion of a housing. Specific features and alternatives are described. Also, methods of assembly and operation are described.

Abstract: The compass system of the present invention utilizes an improved calibration route in which a processing circuit of the compass recalibrates the compass each time three data points are obtained from a magnetic field sensor that meet predetermined criteria. One such criterion is that the three data points define corners of a triangle that is substantially non-obtuse. When three data points have been obtained that define a triangle meeting this criterion, the processing circuit calculates a center point for a circle upon which all three data points lie by solving the equation x2+y2+Ax+By+C=0 for A, B, and C, using the coordinate values (x,y) for the three data points and defining the center point as (?A/2, ?B/2).
