| 20080311278 | Granular Sucralose, and Method of Making It - Granular sucralose-containing particles are produced by the methods of the invention, which involve coating sucralose from solution to form granules with this coated sucralose on an outer region thereof. The granules may incorporate agglomerated sucralose particles, with the solution-coated sucralose adding mass and generally resulting in a granule having a relatively smoothed and rounded. The granules have good flow properties, are low dusting, and resist caking. Methods of making the granules involve spraying an aqueous sucralose solution onto a fluidized bed of sucralose particles, followed by drying to form the granules. | 12-18-2008 |

| 20080314363 | Actuated cool combustion emissions solution for auto-igniting internal combustion engine - Lower temperature combustion, which may lead to lower emissions, is accomplished by displacing air adjacent to a fuel injector nozzle. Initially, air is compressed in an engine cylinder by moving the engine piston toward top dead center. Air is displaced through a flow passage within the engine cylinder when the engine piston is in the vicinity of top dead center by moving an air displacement actuator. The air displacement actuator includes a member positioned in the combustion chamber that moves with respect to the engine housing and the piston when actuated. This movement causes air to flow through a flow passage, and fuel is injected into the turbulent compressed air flowing through the flow passage. The mixture of air and fuel are compression ignited in the engine cylinder after a brief ignition delay. Lower emissions may be achieved by bringing the air to the fuel prior to ignition, rather than attempting to bring the fuel to the air as in a typical compression ignition engine. | 12-25-2008 |

| 20090272263 | ELECTRICALLY REGENERATED EXHAUST PARTICULATE FILTER HAVING NON-AXIAL REGENERATION FLAME PROPAGATION - An exhaust particulate filter for an engine system includes an array of filter cartridges positioned within a shell, each of the cartridges having an electrically powered heating element coupled therewith. Exhaust gases may be distributed among the cartridges according to a single distribution pattern, and the filter can be regenerated without diverting, dividing or bypassing exhaust gases from the filter. The filter cartridges may be cylindrical or wedge-shaped, or of a variety of other configurations. Regeneration may take place according to a non-axial regeneration propagation profile. Other aspects include feedback control and feedforward control of regeneration based on sensing an electrical resistance property of each of the electrically powered heating elements. | 11-05-2009 |

| 20110041588 | SENSOR FOR DETECTING HYDROCARBONS - A fluid sensor comprises a sensor housing, a sensor package, an actuator and a switch. The sensor package is disposed within the sensor housing and includes first and second screens and at least one sensing membrane. The sensing membrane is disposed between the first and second screens and is adapted to expand when exposed to a predetermined quantity of a first predetermined fluid. The actuator is disposed proximate the sensor package within the sensor housing and moveable between a first position and a second position through an intermediate position. The switch is disposed proximate the actuator and is operable between closed and open positions. When the actuator is in the second position at least a portion of the actuator depresses the switch to control an electrical circuit connected therewith. | 02-24-2011 |

| 20100269488 | Particulate trap system and method - A particulate trap system for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a monolithic wall-flow particulate trap having a plurality of contiguous porous walls, and a remotely actuated relief valve downstream of said trap for periodically creating a reverse pressure throughout the exhaust system upstream of the relief valve and including said trap. A reversing apparatus periodically creates a reverse pressure drop across a portion of the contiguous porous walls of said trap to dislodge accumulated particulate and cause a portion of the filtered exhaust gas to flow back through said portion of the contiguous porous walls to remove particulate therefrom. A control system actuates the relief valve and the reversing apparatus. In one embodiment the system is utilized on a vehicle and the reversing apparatus includes a relief valve that is also operative as an exhaust break. Regeneration includes the steps of: creating a backpressure in the entire exhaust system from a location downstream of the trap; creating a reverse pressure drop across only a portion of the porous walls to dislodge accumulated particulate therefrom; and causing a portion of filtered exhaust gas to flow back through said portion of the porous walls to carry the dislodged particulate out of the trap. | 10-28-2010 |
