Air Dryer Apparatus for a Vehicle Air Brake Charging System - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240010179 titled 'Air Dryer Apparatus for a Vehicle Air Brake Charging System

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an air dryer apparatus for a vehicle air brake charging system. The apparatus includes an air dryer governor assembly with a plastic sleeve that has an external sleeve surface and an internal sleeve surface defining a piston bore. The assembly also includes a piston that is slidable along the internal sleeve surface between a preset cut-out setting and a preset cut-in setting. The external sleeve surface has one or more ribs to prevent deformation of the plastic sleeve when the piston slides between the cut-out and cut-in settings.

  • The invention is an air dryer apparatus for a vehicle air brake charging system.
  • The apparatus includes an air dryer governor assembly with a plastic sleeve.
  • The plastic sleeve has an external sleeve surface and an internal sleeve surface that defines a piston bore.
  • The assembly also includes a piston that can slide along the internal sleeve surface.
  • The piston has a preset cut-out setting and a preset cut-in setting.
  • The external sleeve surface has one or more ribs to prevent deformation of the plastic sleeve.
  • The ribs ensure that the plastic sleeve remains intact when the piston slides between the cut-out and cut-in settings.

Potential Applications:

  • Vehicle air brake systems
  • Automotive industry
  • Transportation industry

Problems Solved:

  • Prevents deformation of the plastic sleeve during operation
  • Ensures the proper functioning of the air dryer governor assembly
  • Increases the durability and lifespan of the apparatus

Benefits:

  • Improved reliability and performance of the air dryer apparatus
  • Reduces the risk of malfunction or failure in the air brake system
  • Extends the lifespan of the apparatus, reducing maintenance and replacement costs.


Original Abstract Submitted

an air dryer apparatus is provided for a vehicle air brake charging system. the air dryer apparatus comprises an air dryer governor assembly. the air dryer governor assembly includes a plastic sleeve having an external sleeve surface and an internal sleeve surface that defines a piston bore. the air dryer governor assembly also includes a piston disposed in the piston bore and slidable along the internal sleeve surface between a preset cut-out setting and a preset cut-in setting of the air dryer governor assembly. the air dryer governor assembly further includes one or more ribs disposed on the external sleeve surface to prevent deformation of the plastic sleeve when the piston slides along the internal sleeve surface between the preset cut-out and cut-in settings.
