20140331978 | ENGINE SYSTEM HAVING DEDICATED DONOR CYLINDERS FOR EGR - An engine system for a machine is disclosed. The engine system may have a first intake manifold configured to distribute air into a first cylinder bank of an engine. The engine system may also have a second intake manifold configured to distribute air into a second cylinder bank of the engine. The engine system may have a first exhaust manifold configured to discharge exhaust from the first cylinder bank to the atmosphere. The engine system may further have a second exhaust manifold configured to discharge exhaust from non-donor cylinders in the second cylinder bank to the atmosphere. In addition, the engine system may have a third exhaust manifold separate from the first and second exhaust manifolds and configured to recirculate exhaust from donor cylinders in the second cylinder bank to the first and second intake manifolds. | 11-13-2014 |
20150198230 | CAM FOLLOWER ASSEMBLY HAVING SWAGED BUSHING - A cam follower assembly is disclosed. The cam follower assembly may include a forked body having a main bore, and a cam roller disposed within the main bore. The cam roller may include a hollow and generally cylindrical body having an outer surface configured to engage a camshaft. The cam follower assembly may also include a bushing having a generally cylindrical body having an outer surface configured to be press-fitted with the cam roller, a central bore formed within the generally cylindrical body of the bushing, and at least one swaged end configured to inhibit axial movement of the bushing. The cam follower assembly may further include an inner race disposed within the central bore of the bushing and configured to rotatably support the bushing. | 07-16-2015 |
