Fuel Injector Dust Seal - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18506382 titled 'Fuel Injector Dust Seal
The patent application is for a fuel injector dust seal that includes a sleeve positioned between a fuel injector and a fuel injector receiving aperture in a cylinder head. The sleeve has a first section with an inner perimeter that contacts the outer perimeter of the fuel injector, and a second section with an inner perimeter larger than the outer perimeter of the fuel injector.
- The fuel injector dust seal is designed to prevent dust and debris from entering the fuel injector system, ensuring optimal performance.
- The sleeve's two sections accommodate the different sizes of the fuel injector and the receiving aperture, providing a secure and effective seal.
- By creating a tight seal between the fuel injector and the cylinder head, the sleeve helps maintain the integrity of the fuel system and prevents contamination.
- The design of the sleeve allows for easy installation and removal, making maintenance and replacement of the fuel injector more efficient.
- Overall, the fuel injector dust seal enhances the longevity and efficiency of the fuel injector system, reducing the risk of malfunctions and costly repairs.
Potential Applications: - Automotive industry - Aerospace industry - Marine industry
Problems Solved: - Prevents dust and debris from entering the fuel injector system - Ensures a secure and effective seal between the fuel injector and the cylinder head - Facilitates easy installation and removal of the fuel injector
Benefits: - Improved performance and efficiency of the fuel injector system - Reduced risk of contamination and malfunctions - Cost-effective maintenance and replacement of fuel injectors
Commercial Applications: - Manufacturers of fuel injectors - Automotive repair shops - Aircraft maintenance facilities
Questions about Fuel Injector Dust Seal: 1. How does the fuel injector dust seal contribute to the longevity of the fuel injector system? 2. What are the key differences between the first and second sections of the sleeve in terms of their inner and outer perimeters?
Original Abstract Submitted
This disclosure is directed to a fuel injector dust seal comprising: a sleeve arranged between a fuel injector and a fuel injector receiving aperture of a cylinder head, the sleeve defining a longitudinal axis with a first axial end and a second axial end; the sleeve further comprising: a first section, the first segment defining a first inner perimeter configured to be in contact with a first outer perimeter of a fuel injector and a first outer perimeter that is smaller than an inner perimeter of a first section of a fuel injector receiving aperture; and a second section, the second section defining a second inner perimeter that is bigger than an outer perimeter of a second outer perimeter of a fuel injector and a second outer perimeter configured to be in contact with an inner perimeter of a second segment of a fuel injector receiving aperture.
