Restricted Filter Diagnostic System And Method
view source
US Patent:

8327695, Dec 11, 2012
Filed:

Feb 11, 2010
Appl. No.:

12/703952
Inventors:

Robert Jackson - Brighton MI, US
Kurt D. McLain - Clarkston MI, US
Miles K. Maxey - Holly MI, US
Kenneth J. Kalvelage - Rochester Hills MI, US
International Classification:

G01M 15/04
US Classification:

7311437
Abstract:

A restriction diagnostic system for a vehicle comprises a pressure difference module and a diagnostic module. The pressure difference module determines a pressure difference between an ambient air pressure and a filtered air pressure measured at a location between an air filter and a valve that is selectively opened to enable ambient airflow through the air filter to a fuel vapor canister. The diagnostic module selectively diagnoses restriction of the airflow through the air filter when the pressure difference is greater than a predetermined pressure.

US Patent:

8353273, Jan 15, 2013
Filed:

Jan 7, 2010
Appl. No.:

12/683772
Inventors:

Kurt D. Mc Lain - Clarkston MI, US
William R. Cadman - Fenton MI, US
David Edward Prout - Linden MI, US
Miles K. Maxey - Holly MI, US
Robert Jackson - Brighton MI, US
Kenneth J. Kalvelage - Rochester Hills MI, US
International Classification:

F02M 33/02
US Classification:

123518, 123690
Abstract:

A control module and method for operating the same includes a diurnal control valve module that opens a diurnal control valve (DCV) and an evaporative leak check module (ELCM) diverter valve control module that switches on an ELCM diverter valve. The control module includes a correlation module performs a correlation of a ELCM pressure signal and a fuel tank pressure signal and that generates a fault signal in response to the correlation when the DCV valve is open and the ELCM diverter valve is on.

US Patent:

20090211340, Aug 27, 2009
Filed:

Jan 19, 2009
Appl. No.:

12/355926
Inventors:

Zhong Wang - Bellevue WA, US
Miles K. Maxey - Holly MI, US
James D. Ethington - Swartz Creek MI, US
Eric M. Hall - Rochester Hills MI, US
Brian Spohn - Holly MI, US
David Edward Prout - Linden MI, US
Assignee:

GM GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS, INC. - Detroit MI
International Classification:

G01M 3/04
US Classification:

73 407
Abstract:

A leak diagnostic system for a vehicle comprises a tank pressure module and a leak diagnostic module. The tank pressure module selectively outputs first and second fuel tank pressures when an engine is shut down and when engine vacuum is greater than a predetermined engine vacuum, respectively. The leak diagnostic module selectively diagnoses a leak in a fuel vapor purge valve based on the second fuel tank pressure when the first fuel tank pressure is less than a first predetermined pressure.

US Patent:

20220260042, Aug 18, 2022
Filed:

Feb 16, 2021
Appl. No.:

17/176693
Inventors:

- Detroit MI, US
Anne M. Dailly - West Bloomfield MI, US
Miles K. Maxey - Ann Arbor MI, US
Timothy E. McCarthy - Grand Blanc MI, US
Darrell W. Burleigh - Fenton MI, US
Assignee:

GM GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:

F02M 25/08
B01D 53/04
Abstract:

The concepts described herein provide for a system, apparatus and/or method for fuel vapor capture on-vehicle for evaporative emission control. This includes a device for capturing fuel vapor on-vehicle that includes a canister device having a first port that is fluidly coupled to a head space portion of a fuel tank. The canister device defines a chamber that is fluidly coupled in series between the first port and a second port. A first Metal Organic Framework (MOF) material is disposed in the chamber to adsorb fuel vapor constituents.

US Patent:

20220260044, Aug 18, 2022
Filed:

Feb 16, 2021
Appl. No.:

17/176681
Inventors:

- Detroit MI, US
Anne M. Dailly - West Bloomfield MI, US
Miles K. Maxey - Ann Arbor MI, US
Timothy E. McCarthy - Grand Blanc MI, US
Darrell W. Burleigh - Fenton MI, US
Assignee:

GM GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:

F02M 35/024
B01D 53/04
B01D 46/00
B01J 20/22
Abstract:

An air intake system for an internal combustion engine is described, and includes a vapor capture element disposed in an interior portion of an air intake system. The vapor capture element includes a flexible Metal Organic Framework (MOF) material, wherein the flexible MOF material is reversibly controllable to a first state and to a second state in response to a control stimulus. The flexible MOF material is configured to adsorb hydrocarbon vapor when controlled to the first state and configured to desorb the hydrocarbon vapor when controlled to the second state.

Purge Valve Detachment Diagnostic Systems And Methods

US Patent:

20160061154, Mar 3, 2016
Filed:

Nov 12, 2014
Appl. No.:

14/539187
Inventors:

- Detroit MI, US
MILES K. MAXEY - ANN ARBOR MI, US
International Classification:

F02M 25/08
F02D 41/00
Abstract:

A diagnostic system for a vehicle includes a purge valve control module that closes a purge valve. The purge valve regulates fuel vapor flow from a fuel vapor canister to an intake system of an engine. A pump control module, after the closing of the purge valve, turns on a pump that pumps fuel vapor toward the purge valve. A first pressure module, after the purge valve is closed, determines a first pressure measured using a pressure sensor located between the pump and the purge valve. A second pressure module, after the determination of the first pressure and while the pump is on, determines a second pressure measured using the pressure sensor located between the pump and the purge valve. A diagnostic module selectively diagnoses detachment of the purge valve from the intake system based on the first and second pressures.
