Title: Gaseous fuel injection system for engines
Inventor: TILMOUTH ANDREW MICHAEL
IPC: F02M43/00
Filed: 2009-06-30
Granted: 2013-05-23
Abstract: A gaseous fuel direct injection system (10) which comprises a primary fuel tank (13) for receiving a gaseous fuel such as LPG, and a secondary fuel tank for receiving a reserve fuel supply. The gaseous fuel is delivered to a fuel injector (23) connected to a fuel rail (15). Operation of the fuel injector (23) is controlled by an electronic control unit (ECU). As the gaseous fuel available in the primary fuel tank (13) depletes, the vapour pressure in the fuel rail (15) diminishes. The ECU is able to compensate for the reduced vapour pressure in the fuel rail (15) by increasing the duration of opening of the fuel injectors (23) as necessary in order to maintain delivery of a necessary mass of gaseous fuel by the fuel injector (23). However, at some stage the ECU can no longer compensate for the reduced fuel pressure, at which time it becomes necessary to switch the fuel supply from the primary tank (13) to the secondary fuel tank. The decaying pressure characteristic of the depleting gaseous fuel in the primary fuel tank (13) is utilised to recognise that stage and initiate the switch of the fuel supply to the secondary tank.

Title: Fire hose coupling with directional indicator
Inventor: RICHARDSON ROBERT
IPC: A62C33/00
Filed: 2010-03-24
Granted: 2015-04-09
Abstract: A fire hose coupling comprises a body having a first end connected to a fire hose and a second end having either male or female threads or, alternatively, a quarter-turn sexless coupler. The fire hose coupling comprises a recessed portion formed in an outer surface of the body. The recessed portion is shaped to define a visuotactile directional indicator such as an arrow. The recessed portion may include a light-reflecting surface to enhance visibility such as a super reflective metal film, a photo luminescent coating, or a phosfluorescent coating. The recessed directional indicator may be formed in female, male or sexless (Storz) couplings. Since the light-reflecting directional indicator is recessed, it will not cause the hose assembly to snag or catch when the hose is dragged through a burning structure, nor will the directional indicator abrade or wear over time. This coupling enables firefighters to readily determine the exit direction when operating in dark and smoky conditions.
