| 20080202344 | Oil fog separator - An oil fog separator includes a filtering chamber, a filtering device, and a gas-exhausting chamber. The filtering chamber communicates with the exhausting chamber by an air hole, having an accommodating space and a lower portion separated by an intermediate wall from the accommodating space and having an inlet for oil fog to enter. The filtering device is installed in the accommodating space, composed of a filter and a vibrating motor. Then the filter filters oil fog mixed in the air sucked in for the first time, and liquid oil produced is exhausted by the vibrating motor. Filtered oil fog by the filter is then sucked by a vane-wheel in the gas exhausting chamber, and then led in the odor treating device for filtering for the second time to become completely clean gas to be exhausted out in the air. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20090266236 | CANISTERS - The present invention includes a canister including an adsorption chamber. An adsorption material and a heat storage material are disposed within the adsorption chamber. The heat storage material is molded from a mixture of a plurality of microcapsules and a binder. Each of the microcapsules contains therein a heat-change material. The heat storage material is prevented from moving relative to the chamber wall of the adsorption chamber in at least one of two directions perpendicular to each other. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20100101422 | FUEL STORAGE TANK PRESSURE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM INCLUDING A CARBON CANISTER - A carbon canister for use with a fuel storage system having a fuel storage tank and a vent line connected thereto. The carbon canister includes an inner container having a first end and a second end, an outer container having a first end and a second end, the outer container being disposed about an outer surface of the inner container such that the outer container and the inner container are concentric. A first end plate is disposed at the first end of the inner container and the first end of the outer container and a second end plate is disposed at the second end of the inner container and the second end of the outer container, such that a first volume is defined by the inner container, the outer container, the first end plate and the second end plate, and hydrocarbon adsorbing activated carbon disposed in the first volume. The vent line of the fuel storage tank is external to the carbon canister and the first volume of the carbon canister is in fluid communication with the fuel storage tank. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20120006199 | SIEVE BED - A sieve bed including an inlet end, an outlet end, a retainer disposed toward the inlet end and including an interior portion, an exterior portion, a plurality of openings disposed toward the exterior portion, and a passage disposed toward the interior portion, an inlet cap and an inlet port configured to receive a feed stream, wherein the inlet cap includes at least a portion spaced from the retainer thereby defining an inlet chamber in fluid communication with the inlet port and the plurality of openings, an outlet lid disposed toward the outlet end, an exterior wall extending from the inlet cap to the outlet lid, an intermediate wall spaced from the exterior wall and extending from the retainer toward and terminating short of the outlet lid and an interior wall spaced from the intermediate wall and extending from the retainer proximate the passage to at least the outlet lid. | 01-12-2012 |
| 20120118159 | EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM - An evaporative emission control system includes a fuel tank, a canister, a normally-closed control valve, a filler pipe, and a breather pipe. The fuel tank is to store fuel. The canister is to adsorb evaporative fuel generated in the fuel tank. The normally-closed control valve is provided in a vapor passage connecting the fuel tank to the canister. The fuel is delivered to the fuel tank through the filler pipe. The breather pipe includes a communicating passage, an opening, and at least one hole. The communicating passage connects the fuel tank to the filler pipe. The opening is provided at a first end of the breather pipe in the fuel tank. The opening is located below a predetermined fuel level in the fuel tank. The at least one hole is located above the predetermined fuel level in the fuel tank. | 05-17-2012 |
| 20120145007 | Absorption cell and manufacturing method thereof - An absorption cell includes a first absorption layer formed of a first absorbent, and a second absorption layer formed of a second absorbent having a higher density than the first absorbent and coated on the surface of the first absorption layer so as to prevent generation of dust particles from the first absorption layer. The upper surface of the first absorption layer is coated with the second absorption layer formed of the high-density absorbent, thereby preventing generation of minute dust particles and thus preventing secondary contamination. | 06-14-2012 |
| 20130152795 | ADSORPTION VESSELS HAVING REDUCED VOID VOLUME AND UNIFORM FLOW DISTRIBUTION - Adsorption vessels and systems utilizing adsorption vessels are provided herein. In one embodiment, an adsorption vessel for receiving a fluid mixture and for separating a component from therein includes a vessel wall extending from a bottom end to a top end and defining a vessel chamber. A bottom inlet is formed in the bottom end of the adsorption vessel for introducing the fluid mixture to the vessel chamber. Further, a support plate is positioned in the vessel chamber above the bottom end, and defines a bottom void volume between the support plate and the bottom end. A filler material having a total porosity of less than about 25% is positioned in the bottom void volume and defines a channel for flow of the fluid mixture from the bottom inlet to the support plate. | 06-20-2013 |
| 20130305929 | VERTICAL BAFFLE IN HORIZONTAL ADSORBER VESSELS - An adsorber vessel for the adsorption of gas contaminants from a gaseous stream comprising a vertical wall baffle positioned on an inner surface of an absorber vessel wall, and a bed support positioned below the vertical wall baffle and affixed to the inner surface of the adsorber vessel wall to support an adsorbent material, where the adsorbent material is interned by the bed support, the adsorber vessel wall, and the vertical wall baffle such that at least 90% of the volume created between the vertical wall baffle and the inner surface of the adsorber vessel is free of the adsorbent material. | 11-21-2013 |
| 20140137744 | OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Described herein are various embodiments of an oxygen concentrator system. In some embodiments, oxygen concentrator system includes one or more components that improve energy usage during operation of the oxygen concentrator system. | 05-22-2014 |
