Resonator And Crankcase Ventilation System For Internal Combustion Engine

View page
US Patent:
8118013, Feb 21, 2012
Filed:
Sep 24, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/236554
Inventors:
Gary J. Arvan - Rochester Hills MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:
F02B 25/06
US Classification:
123572, 123573, 123574, 12318457, 12318447
Abstract:
The present invention provides a crankcase ventilation system and resonator for a turbocharged internal combustion engine assembly. The resonator, designed for intake noise reduction, is mounted to the engine. An oil separation unit, designed for passage of blowby gases, is mounted to a cam cover, sandwiched between the resonator and cam cover. The resonator has a resonator body defining a resonator volume therein. The resonator fluidly communicates the oil separation unit with the turbocharger air inlet pipe, whereby blowby gases are evacuated from the cam cover and delivered through the resonator volume for reintroduction to the engine's air intake system. Integration of the blowby passages into the resonator reduces the number of potential leak paths in the air induction system, and reduces overall engine mass, cost, and packaging size. The present design also offers improved On-board Diagnostics (OBD) by allowing only large flow areas to be disconnected.

Integrated Inboard Exhaust Manifolds For V-Type Engines

View page
US Patent:
8220264, Jul 17, 2012
Filed:
Apr 12, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/402614
Inventors:
Gary J. Arvan - Rochester Hills MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:
F02B 33/44
F02B 33/00
F02F 11/00
F02F 3/00
US Classification:
606051, 1235591, 1231933, 1231935
Abstract:
An internal combustion engine has a first and a second cylinder bank. The first and second cylinder banks are arranged such that they have less than a 180 degree included angle with respect to one another, thereby forming an inboard region or generally V-shaped cavity. A respective first and second cylinder head is mounted with respect to the first and second cylinder bank. Integrated within the first and second cylinder head is a first and second integrated exhaust manifold, respectively. The first and second integrated exhaust manifolds are provided on the engine in an “inboard” orientation, i. e. disposed on a side of their respective cylinder heads such that they are substantially adjacent to the generally V-shaped cavity. The first and second integrated exhaust manifold may operate to convey exhaust gases from the engine to at least one turbocharger, which is mounted substantially within the generally V-shaped cavity.

Rocker Arm Assembly For Internal Combustion Engine

View page
US Patent:
8495979, Jul 30, 2013
Filed:
Nov 3, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/288311
Inventors:
Gary J. Arvan - Rochester Hills MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:
F01L 1/18
US Classification:
123 9039, 123 9016
Abstract:
An internal combustion engine comprising valve sets through which combustion air enters a cylinder is mixed with fuel for combustion therein and through which products of combustion exit. A valve train assembly comprises a drive rocker arm, including a first, proximal end in contact with a rotatable camshaft and a second, distal end in contact with a valve shaft of a first valve of a valve set and a driven rocker arm including a first, proximal end in contact with the drive rocker arm at a location that is adjacent to the first, proximal end thereof and a second, distal end in contact with a valve shaft of a second valve of a valve set. The drive rocker arm and the driven rocker arm operate to move the valves reciprocally from a closed to an open position.

Piston Squirter System And Method

View page
US Patent:
20090044768, Feb 19, 2009
Filed:
Apr 25, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/109602
Inventors:
Gary J. Arvan - Rochester Hills MI, US
Edward R. Romblom - De Witt MI, US
Assignee:
GM GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS, INC. - Detroit MI
International Classification:
F01P 1/04
US Classification:
123 4135, 184 68
Abstract:
A piston squirter system and method for an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The piston squirter system includes an oil reservoir, a variable displacement pump, and, for each cylinder, a piston squirter that sprays oil onto a piston for cooling and lubricating. A gallery connects the variable displacement pump to the piston squirters. The variable displacement pump receives oil from the oil reservoir and distributes the oil through the gallery to the piston squirters at a flow rate according to pressure required. The gallery does not require a relief valve and the piston squirters do not require check valves.

Valvetrain Control Strategies For Exhaust Aftertreatment Devices

View page
US Patent:
20100071656, Mar 25, 2010
Filed:
Sep 25, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/237909
Inventors:
Gary J. Arvan - Rochester Hills MI, US
Assignee:
GM GLOBAL TCHNOLOGY OPERATIONS, INC. - DETROIT MI
International Classification:
F02D 17/02
US Classification:
123198 F, 123 9015, 60287
Abstract:
A method may include operating an engine in a first valvetrain mode during a first engine operating condition, operating the engine in a second valvetrain mode different from the first valvetrain mode during a second engine operating condition, and controlling a temperature of an exhaust aftertreatment component in communication with an exhaust gas from the engine during the second engine operating condition based on the second valvetrain mode.

GM GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS, INC. - Detroit MI
International Classification:
F02B 33/34
F04D 25/04
US Classification:
606052, 415116
Abstract:
A turbocharger having a turbine housing with an integral EGR conduit is disclosed. The turbine includes a turbine wheel attached to a turbine shaft and rotatably disposed in a turbine housing having a turbine volute conduit having a turbine inlet passage fluidly coupled to a turbine volute conduit having a turbine volute passage and a turbine volute inlet and an EGR conduit having an EGR passage, the EGR passage having an EGR conduit inlet, the EGR conduit inlet disposed on the turbine inlet conduit.
