FUEL CELL SYSTEM AND EXHAUST GAS TREATMENT DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18207661 titled 'FUEL CELL SYSTEM AND EXHAUST GAS TREATMENT DEVICE

The patent application describes an exhaust gas treatment device with an outer housing, inner housing, guide channel, and spiral member to treat exhaust gases efficiently.

  • The device has an outer housing with a first inflow part and a second inflow part.
  • An inner housing is provided within the outer housing, with a gas inflow part.
  • A guide channel between the outer and inner housing directs a portion of the exhaust gas to the gas inflow part.
  • A spiral member in the inner housing includes a barrel part that defines a passage flow path.
  • The spiral member also has a spiral protrusion on its outer surface, creating a spiral flow path between the barrel part and the inner housing.
  • A gas discharge part in the barrel part releases the treated exhaust gases into the passage flow path.

Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for vehicle exhaust treatment - Industrial applications for emissions control

Problems Solved: - Efficient treatment of exhaust gases - Reduction of harmful emissions

Benefits: - Improved air quality - Compliance with environmental regulations - Enhanced engine performance

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Exhaust Gas Treatment Device for Automotive and Industrial Use" This technology can be used in automotive exhaust systems, industrial emissions control, and environmental protection equipment, with significant market implications for manufacturers in these sectors.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this exhaust gas treatment device compare to existing technologies in terms of efficiency and effectiveness? 2. What are the potential cost implications for integrating this device into existing exhaust systems?


Original Abstract Submitted

An exhaust gas treatment device including an outer housing including a first inflow part and a second inflow part, an inner housing provided in the outer housing and having a gas inflow part, a guide channel defined between the outer housing and the inner housing and configured to guide a part of the first exhaust gas to the gas inflow part, and a spiral member including a barrel part provided in the inner housing and configured to define a passage flow path, a spiral protrusion provided on an outer surface of the barrel part and configured to define a spiral flow path between the barrel part and the inner housing, and a gas discharge part provided in the barrel part and configured to discharge the first exhaust gas and the second exhaust gas, which have passed through the spiral flow path, to the passage flow path.
