418 555, 418 554, 418 57, 418270, 417213, 417310
Abstract:
A scroll compressor may include a shell, a compression mechanism, and a sealing apparatus. The compression mechanism may be contained within the shell and include a compression member. The compression member may include an aperture extending radially there a surface. The sealing apparatus may be contained within the shell and include a first seal member and an actuator. The first seal member may be pivotally supported relative the compression member and may be movable from a first position wherein a sealing portion of the first seal member is in a sealing engagement with the surface and a second position wherein the sealing portion of the first seal member is displaced radially outwardly from the surface. The actuator may be engaged with the first seal member and configured to displace the first seal member from the first position to the second position.

Brian Knapke - Toledo OH, US
Scott Henricks - Birmingham MI, US
International Classification:
B60K017/00
US Classification:
180337000, 280124156
Abstract:
A dampener mount for an axle to absorb/dampen/inhibit power-hop induced oscillations in a rear axle assembly. A housing for the axle assembly incorporates a mount for attaching a shock absorber/dampener which is in turn connected to the unsparing mass of a vehicle. Preferably the shock absorber/dampener is secured to a bracket connected or otherwise formed with the housing cover.

Method For Providing Predetermined Toe Angle Of Wheels Of Drive Axle Assembly

View page
US Patent:
20070090687, Apr 26, 2007
Filed:
Oct 19, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/583133
Inventors:
David Young - Delta OH, US
Brian Knapke - Toledo OH, US
International Classification:
B60B 37/00
US Classification:
301124100
Abstract:
A drive axle assembly comprises an axle tube, a hub assembly mounted to an outer end of the axle tube and carrier member mounted to an inner end thereof. The axle tube is mounted to the hub assembly and the carrier member so that a central axis of the hub assembly intersects a transverse axis of the carrier member at an angle to substantially equal to a predetermined toe angle of a wheel of the drive axle assembly.

Rotary Union For Use With A Fluid Conduit

View page
US Patent:
20140028016, Jan 30, 2014
Filed:
Jul 25, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/951131
Inventors:
Brian V. Knapke - Toledo OH, US
International Classification:
F16L 17/02
F16L 27/087
US Classification:
285 98
Abstract:
A rotary union is provided. The rotary union includes a first housing portion, a second housing portion, and a sealing member. The first housing portion has a first fluid passage formed therein and the second housing portion has a second fluid passage formed therein. The second fluid passage is in fluid communication with the first fluid passage. The sealing member is disposed on one of the first housing portion and the second housing portion and is sealingly engaged with a remaining one of the first housing portion and the second housing portion in a substantially similar direction to an axis of rotation of one of the first housing portion and the second housing portion. The rotary union permits axial deviation between a rotating component and a non-rotating component, reduces friction generated within the rotary union, and permits an increased flow rate of a fluid through the rotary union.

Parking Mechanism And Method Of Operation Thereof

View page
US Patent:
20210108720, Apr 15, 2021
Filed:
Oct 11, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/599539
Inventors:
- Maumee OH, US
Ned W. Wright - Toledo OH, US
Aaron D. Gries - Perrysburg OH, US
Robert L. Vailliencourt - Wauseon OH, US
Brian V. Knapke - Toledo OH, US
International Classification:
F16H 63/34
F16H 63/18
Abstract:
A parking mechanism for use in a vehicle and method of operation thereof. The parking mechanism includes one or more actuation mechanisms, a parking pawl and a parking gear. At least a portion of the one or more actuation mechanisms are drivingly connected to at least a portion of a cam. The parking pawl has one or more parking pawl teeth extending therefrom that are selectively engagable with at least a portion of one or more parking gear teeth extending from an outer surface of a body portion of the parking gear. The parking pawl also includes a parking pawl pin aperture having a size and shape needed to receive and/or retain at least a portion of a parking pawl pin therein.

Compressor Having Oldham Keys

View page
US Patent:
20200208632, Jul 2, 2020
Filed:
May 6, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/404124
Inventors:
- Sidney OH, US
Brian J. KNAPKE - Troy OH, US
Daniel J. KNOTH - Tipp City OH, US
Assignee:
Emerson Climate Technologies, Inc. - Sidney OH
International Classification:
F04C 18/02
Abstract:
A compressor may include a non-orbiting scroll, an orbiting scroll, a bearing housing and first and second discrete keys. The non-orbiting scroll may include a first end plate having a first spiral wrap extending therefrom. The orbiting scroll may include a second end plate having a second spiral wrap extending therefrom and meshingly engaged with the first spiral wrap of the non-orbiting scroll. The bearing housing may support the orbiting scroll. Each of the first and second keys may be slidably engaged in first slots formed in the second end plate of the orbiting scroll and slidably engaged in second slots formed in the first end plate of the non-orbiting scroll or third slots formed in the bearing housing.

Two-Channel Wheel Speed Sensor System

View page
US Patent:
20180045749, Feb 15, 2018
Filed:
Aug 15, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/677183
Inventors:
- Maumee OH, US
Brian V. Knapke - Toledo OH, US
International Classification:
G01P 3/48
G01M 17/013
Abstract:
A wheel speed sensor system for determining the rotational speed of the wheels mounted at the opposite ends of an axle without requiring wheel speed sensor assemblies for each wheel shaft axle. As a result, the speed sensor system of the present disclosure can be housed in small sized or small capacity axle housing such as banjo type housings. In one embodiment, a wheel speed sensor assembly is positioned in the axle housing to determine the speed of one of the wheel axle shafts and a differential speed sensor assembly is positioned in the axle housing to determine the rotational speed of the differential. With these two speed measurements the rotational speed of the other wheel axle shaft can be calculated by a control unit. The wheel and differential speed sensor assemblies can each include a toothed or slotted ring or disk and sensor for sensing the teeth. In each of the wheel and differential speed sensor assemblies, one of the tone ring and sensor can be mounted for rotation with a wheel axle shaft and gear of the differential respectively and the other can be fixedly mounted. The sensors can detect the passage of teeth over time via the relative motion of the teeth and sensor to determine rotational speed.
